How do i book?Simply go to the home page of our website and select 'book session'. From there you will be able to see our whole schedule. to find out more information about each session, select 'book'. You will need to buy a 'credit' to book a session. while we will have credit packs available, we always have the option to buy a single credit to cover a one off session. If you have any questions or issues with the booking system, please contact bookings@saunasocialclub.co.uk.

How does the waitlist work?You can join the waitlist for a session through our usual booking system. There are two waitlist spots for each session. To join the waitlist you need to already have a credit in your account. If you are a member, this will be taken off your remaining credits. If you are not a member, you will need to buy a credit for the session to join the waitlist. If a slot becomes available, you will receive another email to let you know. Up until 2 hours before the session, you will be automatically added to the session. If a slot does not become available, your credit will be refunded to your account for you to use to book another session of the same type. If you have any questions or issues, please email bookings@saunasocialclub.co.uk and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Can i make a group booking?For bookings of up to 6 people, please follow the instructions for booking for a friend. We're not currently offering private bookings or group discounts. As we only have one sauna we're prioritising keeping the space open for our members. Our capacity is limited to 14 per session. We prioritise being a space where people feel able to come alone or with a friend and strike up conversations with people they've not met before. We've found that having a large group in the sauna can make conversations feel quite exclusive, and discourage any connections with those outside of the group. For that reason, if you're coming to the space as a group, please be mindful of how your conversations may affect others - especially in the volume and content of these conversations while in the sauna. The best way to book as a group would be for you all to book on either individually, or one person can book for up to 6. Bookings open 30 days in advance of a session. For any other enquiries, please contact bookings@saunasocialclub.co.uk

Can i book for myself and a friend?Yes, you can book for up to 6 people. However, for safety reasons we need everyone's details that will be attending the session, so it's important you book each person on individually. You can only book one slot at a time. Begin by booking yourself onto the session and paying for your slot, and then you can go onto the same session again and select 'book for someone else'. The process is as follows: 1. once on our booking system, find the session that you would like to attend and select 'book' 2. select 'book session .. credits' 3. where this screen appears, select 'view pricing options'. follow through the process to book yourself onto the session. 4. now repeat the process from step 1, but when you reach step 3, select 'book for someone else'. it will then ask you to 'add a related contact' or select them if you've booked for them before. you'll need their name and email address to do this. Please contact bookings@saunasocialclub.co.uk if you have any questions or issues booking.

How do I cancel my booking?You can cancel your booking online up to 6 hours before the beginning of the session.

Click on upcoming bookings and you can cancel from there. Your credit will be refunded to your account, which you can then redeem on another booking of the same type of session. We're not able to offer cash refunds, unless there are exceptional circumstances, as our payment processor charges for these.

However, if you would like to transfer your ticket to a friend, please email bookings@saunasocialclub.co.uk with their name and email address and we will transfer the ticket free of charge.
