Yrjönkatu Swimming Hall

Check the website for detailed opening hours. Opening hours are divided into men and woman sessions. Because it’s gender separated, clothing is optional. A beautiful swimming hall with fair prices, perfect for a swimming session.

Would get 5 stars if the time would be 3 hours instead of 2. The wood traditional sauna on the 2nd floor is my favourite, you can get a good heat there! The bathrooms smells little moldy and the steam sauna as well, my sister loved the infrapuna light sauna, that you need to spend a longer time to feel the warm coming to your body. The best thing is to swim freely naked in a relaxing atmosphere. Upper level there is a possibility to order drinks and food but I d need the extra hour so that i would have had time to eat. Lovely architecture and old feeling in the building.

Nice place in the city centre to relax your body by swimming or sauna. The price also very affordable. Please check the schedule as there are separate days for men and women

Really waiting for this to reopen. The place is very beautiful. And the saunas are great.

A little difficult for me to find initially but a great place to swim and try the sauna. Came on a Monday so the second floor (with the wood sauna) wasn't open. Bring your own towels and toiletries!

A very nice pool and different sauna options. They have normal and steam saunas. The steam sauna was very relaxing and refreshing. The atmosphere is pretty nice since it’s a very old building. Swimming with no swimsuit is also allowed. The second floor had a nice variety of food and drinks but more expensive than the first one. I highly recommend this pool.

Built 1928, this is the oldest public swimming hall in Finland. Beautiful classic interior by Väinö Vähäkallio. It’s worth to pay the extra fee for the entrance to the second floor as it has a real wood fired once heated sauna stove - a rarity in the city centre. Men and women have separate days as you swim naked. The cafe serves traditional dishes and is worth trying.

Wonderful classic swimming hall! Oldest in Helsinki and still operating traditional way. Women and men have different dates. You can also swim naked. Downstairs is good for simple swimming or water running, as long as you don’t want to swim very speedy, as often there is others too. There is 2 electric saunas downstairs. Upstairs is nice if you go with a friend, for a social swim, sauna and chat. You can order nice drinks and food too and have a private resting area and 3 lovely saunas, wooden, infra red and steam. Decent prices. Sometimes you need to wait your turn to enter as it’s very popular place.
