Not my cup of tea to be frank.
As a single guy there were too many of us and it didn't feel like that welcoming.
I actually got messaged by 2 ladies after I left which was frustrating (did meet 1 immediately after though) |

Yes but not my type to be honest.
Consider that most people there were single men, then couples and then single woman.
By all means pop your head in though. |

Yes this was evident so I just enjoyed the facilities instead lest I join the legions of the wanking dead. |

"Playing? I thought it was a naturist spa type place as opposed to swingers
I thought it was a nightclub in Tottenham! That was a while ago though that was Eltons "
Was definitely a Rios. I used to go there all the time. Diagonally opposite to Ritzy which I believe is now flats |

No it's the opposite....i felt extremely uncomfortable there with the predatory, aggressive behaviour of the males who attended. |

Ok let me clarify, my standard approach is to treat all woman with dignity and respect, then in certain situations if they want to be treated like an object sexually then I will oblige.
Communication is so important |

You wont know if you don't try...
Having visited on occasions when in london in my opinion the best approach would to treat it aS a spa with the slimmest of chances you might get lucky...
That way you wobt be disappointed... |

This.
I used to live in kentish town and enjoyed Rios as a spa. But I'd go early in the week knowing it would be quiet. Fridays are horrendous as are Saturdays after midnight but when its quiet it's great just to have a naked sauna, the likelihood of play is minimal to non-existent though |

I have been many times. I prefer it in the day, before it gets busy. That's often when the testosterone rises.
Sexually frustrated guys trudge about opening doors and peering and looking shifty and edgey. I was that also when I first went. Try not to become that, it's really ugly.
Just have passing banter if it's appropriate, in order to make the place sociable and pleasant.
Get a pair of flipflops to walk in, the floor is hard on the feet. There's free tea but they don't do meals.
It will take several visits till you find what suits you. |

We’ve gone with friends. And 99% never had an issue. Twice we have picked guys for me to suck and only once guy was a problem.
It’s a spa fun can happen.
I’m lucky himself is protective. So I feel safe. |

"Still unsure lol"
You can read the reviews. Everyone can give you their experience and opinion. Only you know you.
Deciding to give it a try isn't a commitment for life. If you don't like it you'll know. You may decide you need two or three visits. You may love it the first time and hate the second. It depends who is there, your mood and expectations and the interactions you have.
Personally, I don't like it there but I know others who really enjoy it. |

Maybe in the corridor between the rooms. Never been followed in the spa. |

"I live near Rio’s but have never ventured in. Can someone give me an honest opinion of what it’s like for a single guy?" . I am a single guy and I have been many times I go with no expectations other than to enjoy the facilities and anything else is a bonus.After 5.00 pm on weeknights you can expect the ratio to be 10 guys to one lady but please treat that lady with the respect she deserves as she maybe ther with her husband or partner or just there to enjoy the facilities.The reviews are hit and miss as some have already said it’s like marmite.I have been weekdays afternoon and evenings and from my experiences no two visits are the same As you live close by it maybe worth you popping various days and times.May also be worth checking Fabs meet and events page in case any couples or ladies are going.Best of luck with what ever you decide to do.

Mine as well I met a couple there one evening who invited me to join them in the private / rest rooms for some adult fun.The guy then told me he was bi and told me what he and his lady wanted from me.When I told him it wasn’t for me and could I leave the room he respected my wishes and allowed me to leave. |

Being approached by a gay or bi man and saying no is your worst nightmare as a 100% straight guy? It's really no different to women being approached by men and having to say no.
