I had my first experience there last night, it's funny because I recognised some of the guys just from the descriptions from this website. I had a nice time with a very handsome Romanian in the end, he did give me probably the worst massage of my life, almost comedic, but totally forgivable as he was so handsome. And would definelty go back, there were 1 or 2 guys who didn't really take no for an answer but I suppose that's to be expected. Heading to Madrid now so hopefully I will have time to explore. 

Aside from "Adan Sauna" (horrible place, but always "Thermas like" working boys) look for Sauna Gran Via - it is said to have  guys as well - but I am not quite sure. Adress is Calle Barco, 6 , same area. Give it a try and let us know, maybe...? Have fun!

Just returned last night from a friend's birthday weekend in Barcelona replete with eating and lots of visits to Thermas.  We all took different airlines (JFK, EWR) and landed in the early afternoon on Thursday (I tried the new Norwegian airline from EWR- the business class tickets are a good deal as they are only slightly more than the premium economy on the legacy airlines). Checked into the hotel (Mandarin Oriental, located on the edge of the gay district. The hotel is well situated, but the interior is a little dated compared to other MOs; however, the doormen are all tall dark handsome spaniards with beautiful smiles and always willing  to lend a helping hand). Side note: do not get the bfast buffet as it is not worth 45 euros. Rather spend it at the nice cafe  (Faborit) across the street and you can get a really good meal for 10 euros. 

Upon check-in, i immediately skipped my usual nap and headed straight to Thermas. (Cabfare from hotel is about 6 euros, i tried to save some money on subsequent visits by buying the T10 card, which allows you to take the metro for 1 euro). The entrance fee is now 18 euros and all the rates are well listed (along with the prices for the hourly rooms). Met with Felipe a nice muscular guy from Porto who did an amazing massage and did wonderful things with his tongue. Also played with Douglas, a cute Brazilian who despite claiming he was active proved to be otherwise behind closed doors. His ass was screaming to be fucked and I came within seconds of seeing his cute ass.  There was Alberto, a hunky dark haired belami-looking Bulgarian who said he was active and wanted to play- however, i was so physically spent and had to meet up with my friends for dinner at Lasarte, i decided to look for him another time. There were about 15 other beautiful muscular guys and everyone was very friendly.

Day 2. Rented a car with friends and went to a cava winery tour  at Cordoniu, followed by a trip to the beachtown of  Sitges (lovely late lunch  of lobster paella at Can Laury - very hot waiters there!). Returned to city by 6 pm, which gave me 2 hours to play before meeting friends again for dinner. Met up with sultry venezualan Rudolfo - nice attitude, puppy dog eyes, beautiful smile and wanted to do everything to make me happy.  Met up with Douglas too who i was texting all day. He offered to meet me at hotel for an overnight.  I declined as I didn't know exactly what time my dinner would end and i was pretty exhausted from the out-of-town trips that day. Had another great meal at ABAC and went to Axel Hotel rooftop bar with friends for drinks. The scene was really nice there! About 20 guys this evening, with about 70% being brazilian/venezualan.

 

Day 3. Did local touristy things -  Casa Batilo, Park Guell and Sagrada Familia. Met up with Igor, a  Hungarian who gave a very good massage.  Played with  Marcel, a  venezualan with movie star looks with nice beard and an extremely large cock. Also had fun with Paulo (another venezualan!) frat boy square face with cute freckles and  tight ass - he claimed to be active but whispered to me that he'll do anything i wanted... and he did. Had an excellent meal at Dos Palillos (1 star, but very good fusion food). About 30 guys tonight (similar demographics as the previous day- though i was surprised to meet someone from Hungary, and another guy from Macedonia (name escapes me). My good friend who decided to visit the sauna met up with  an extremely hot egyptian (looked like a darker version of hollywood actor Henry Cavill) who also offered to come visit him at the hotel. (My friend kept his number but had a grindr hookup that evening). 

 

Day 4. Went to an afternoon opera at the Liceu (L'elisir d'amore) and a Strauss Concert  evening concert. Between cultural events, i went back to Thermas and met up with Ruslan, a hot silver fox  from kazakhstan who is a restaurant worker making extra cash in the sauna.. Very sweet and nice bedroom eyes. Good kisser.  Was texting a lot with Douglas, the brazilian from the first night, but i couldn't commit to overnight plans. Went to dinner at  Petit Pau, one of the few non michelin restaurants we tried, but we all loved it and thought it was one of the best meals that trip.

...enjoyed your read and appreciated your mentioning the restaurants which you visited as well as the cultural components which you and friends explored. 

I hope to be in BCN in September and will try to go to some of the eateries to which you referred in your report.  Muchas gracias

Axiom, I forgot to mention that they don't use uber there. Several locals recommended the apps cabify and mytaxi to get around. Enjoy the boys in September!

what were the rates the guys were charging? did you meet all in the sauna?

[Lucky]

I like this thread. Having gone to Thermas in Barcelona a few times, I get some vicarious pleasure from the stories. It was exciting to plan a visit there.

50 euros for sex. 30 euros for massage.

Thank you Cany really enjoyed your post. I love Thermas it is quite unique in Europe and the variety of boys is big plus. I hope the price for an encounter stays around 50 euros. I cannot wait to return to Barcelona,my favourite city in Europe.

Thanks Miller. I certainly hope that Thermas stays around   Barcelona is such a fun city!!  In fact, one of my friends that came with me has already commented on buying a place there.  I  can see why the number of tourists outnumber the residents 3:1.  There was a nice article in the new york times yesterday: https://nyti.ms/2EKOKQQ

I too, hope the price stays around 50 euros... sadly, i don't know how much longer it can last. I recall the days when in Amsterdam (pre Euro), it was 50 guilder for a fuck, 50 for a suck. One of the sauna guys even offered to spend an overnight for 250 euros. I thought that was extremely reasonable. Now, it 's almost difficult to justify paying the new york rentboys their 300 US$!!! Well, i guess they will charge what the market will pay. And, fortunately for now, at least in BCN, the market is about 50 euros for a sauna encounter. 

 

[redxs]

how much is an overnight encounter in Bcn?

Plus, any bodybuilding competitions scheduled for Bcn and chances are hiring a bodybuilder at one of these?

Yes, but it just a sauna encounter. More than most of the guys make at saunas back in Brazil. I think the guys will usually quote you 20 or 30 minutes but many of the guys manage extremely high turn-over. I like to get a hotel close and for the ones I like get them for an hour for E100 before or after work or on days off.

I know it's higher but how much more is Paragonya in Zurich?

The two everyday regular muscle Brazilians, Lucas and Gabriel are on my FB and evidently have been gone from Thermas for some time. 

If you're into really large-dicked muscle tops the Romanians in Thermas will supply in abundance. What I find unique is all the eastern Europeans (other than Romanians) who frequent. There's the blond Pole who sleeps there, a few rather nice looking Bulgarians, several Moldovans, and a few Ukrainians. You rarely see them other places in Europe unless they show up at Paragonya also.  

[tassojunior]

This is Gabriel who is at Thermas almost everyday. Muscular Brazilian bottom. Well manscaped and clean. Nice guy. Most of the other guys enjoy 3 somes with him.

[tassojunior]

And this is Lucas, on the left, who is also Brazilian and usually at Thermas. That's his boyfriend Juan who I've never met but would love to!

I have been encouraged to retry this sauna when I visit Barcelona later this year.  I'm still giving it a lot of thought and trying to erase my not-so-good experience at this place when i visited a few years back. 

[...wore my "sauna uniform" which I started wearing during my last two visits in Rio.  ...was told to wear that friggin' skimpy towel but refused-- dressed--and left.  ...time and experience lost!]  My experience is posted here.

I wore my briefs and several of the working guys do the same. Those cheap towels are neither sexy or comfortable or clean. All the detergent in the world can't get all the lube out of them.

[Riobard]

I prefer to wear some clothing as well but appreciate that, unlike in Brazil, the fingers can be much more proficiently schooled in stickiness, and a towel or panties is thus protective.

I will skip BCN when in Europe this Spring but will try out, for the 1st time, Adan in Madrid as well as Paragonya in Zurich. 

[Cany10011]

@axiom2001 Two of my travel buddies brought their own size 13 sandals (big American feet). The owners/managers seemed friendly and quite accommodating. I think you will enjoy your experiences here. Also, as mentioned elsewhere some of the sauna boys wear their own sexy briefs stuffed with condoms in a strategy  to be efficient (instead of running to the upstairs counter for condoms). You will want to wear something that you can remove easily for easy cleaning/ showering and other fun things.

As a side note, one of the Spanish guys I met in the change room at the sauna (not a rentboy) just spent a few days here in nyc with me last week as he was here for fashion week. It was a nice way to relive the sexy sauna hookups with a  Barcelonian.

Hey. Does anyone know the best days to visit Thermas? Or is it the same every night?

Anecdotally, when i was there in January, Friday and Saturday nights seemed crowded to me.

I have gone to Thermas many times over the years at different times of the year.  

It is difficult to predict a "best" day at Thermas.  

The only times I experienced a night at that sauna with fewer available guys were nights when it rained or when the weather was especially cold outside.  

Despite the weather not being the best, the sauna still draws a fair selection of available guys. 

The key being, rain and cold are the nights you can expect to see fewer guys than nights when the weather is nice.

I have read in one of the post that the working boys use a white towel & the clients use a white towel. Is that still true? Can I wear swimwear shorts instead? , underwear? or short shorts?

It usually isn't a problem to wear swim shorts or underwear in these places.

thank you redxs

Yes, it's fine. I usually wear my undershorts and several boys wear briefs. The towels are cheap and small. Don't remember about the sandals.

Be sure to hit it at the right time and for 10E an hour room #1 is well worth it, especially for 3somes.

Helps to stay here in our main thread on Thermas BCN. New threads lose prior information.
