Les Bains is a men-only sauna on rue de Cambrai spread over four floors. It calls itself the largest male space in the north of France and the south of Belgium.
Water is the main business. Three large spas, pools held at body temperature, massage jets, a counter-current swim and a cascade basin. There are two Finnish saunas and a hammam split into two temperature zones, along with a gym, tanning beds and a massage room. The showers are communal, behind glass.
Outside there are three terraces, one of them naturist, and a rooftop under a glazed roof the venue says is the only one of its kind in the country, with an open-air spa. The bar does cocktails and hot food, and there is a smoking room with screens.
The cruising side is corridors and cabins with glory holes. Two metro stops, Porte de Douai and Porte de Valenciennes, are both close.
