Right across from Riga's only Gay Hotel and the city's best gay club, XXL, is the first and only (so far) gay sauna in Latvia, Varaviksne. The spacious and clean sauna provides a number of services and areas in which to relax, such as both steam and dry saunas, a jacuzzi, a cruising area, cabins, toilets with showers, and even private video rooms. The sauna even has its own bar, and is open from Sunday through Thursday from 3 pm until 2 am, and Friday and Saturday from 3 pm until 7 am. Entrance fees are reduced to 7 Lats for guests under 25, with a regular fee of 10 Lats for those over, and a towel, condom, and lubricant are included in the price of the entrance.
