About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
This gym provides a dry sauna and a steam room. Gym members note that the steam room is operational. A cold plunge is not mentioned as an available amenity. The wellness facilities are part of a broader, multi-level venue.
Atmosphere
Club Pittsburgh occupies a unique, historic building that members describe as cozy, though some note the presence of long staircases between floors. The atmosphere is noted as reliably fun for those into this kind of venue, but many members express that the traditional "bathhouse energy" has been compromised. This is attributed to the integration of event spaces and a coed environment, which some feel disrupts the vibe and makes cruising difficult. The venue is described as one-of-a-kind and serves the city's queer community.
Pricing
Specific session pricing is not detailed, but some members mention that the price for a locker is considered a bit steep. There is also mention of a six-month membership option, which guests note is only valid at this location and is not part of a larger franchise.
Staff
Feedback on staff is mixed. Several members report positive interactions, describing staff as friendly, helpful, welcoming, and awesome on the nights they visited. However, other reports raise serious concerns, with members citing a history of management not taking sexual assault seriously and one account of an assault by security during a private event.
Additional Amenities
Beyond the sauna and steam room, the venue offers a whirlpool, though members consistently find it to be very small. There is a gym that is noted for being quite clean. The complex includes multiple playrooms, a dance club on the lowest level, and a rooftop lounge with a nice view. The front area has plenty of items available for purchase. Some areas, like a lower playroom, are criticized for having a poor layout.
