A house for heat, movement and good company.

A private members' club for wellbeing, in the heart of the city.

The Thermal Hall

Max House is a members' club where warmth, movement, good food and good company share one address.

A thermal circuit, a movement studio and private treatment rooms sit under one roof with an all-day kitchen, a lounge for working and a roof terrace. Membership is kept intentionally small, so the rooms stay calm and the team knows you by name. Come early for the heat, stay for lunch, and book a seat at the next supper on your way out.

How membership works

Heat, steam and a slower hour.

The thermal circuit is designed for unhurried rounds: sauna, cold pool, a heated stone lounger, and again. Hosts are nearby for your first visit, and evening sessions are kept small and quiet.
