Verdict:
Want cheapest sauna + swimming in Oslo → Tøyen bad (165 NOK/month). Want pool + sauna at SATS → SATS Røa (Røa Bad, 699 NOK). Want premium sauna + gym → SATS Colosseum (699 NOK). Want good sauna + group classes → SATS Standard Oslo (699 NOK) with sauna at Bislett, Storo and Solli Plass. Want SATS sauna + maximum locations → SATS All-Access (799 NOK).
Yes, SATS includes sauna at select Oslo locations. This is one of the clearest advantages of SATS compared to cheaper alternatives like Fitness24Seven (no sauna) and Evo (no standard sauna). Quality varies – Colosseum has one of the best saunas. A pool is only at SATS Røa.
Only SATS Røa (Røa Bad) has sauna combined with a 25m swimming pool. Colosseum has a premium sauna, but no pool. For pool + sauna at lower cost, see Tøyen bad (165 NOK/month annual) or municipal pools.
Yes, sauna is included in all SATS tiers including Single Club (599 NOK/month). Note that Single Club does NOT include group classes – for that you need Standard Oslo (699 NOK). For pool + sauna + group classes you need All-Access (799 NOK).
No – Evo Fitness has no sauna at any Oslo location. Evo specialises in low-cost training without extra facilities. If you want sauna included at the gym, SATS Standard Oslo (699–799 NOK/month) or Tøyen bad (165 NOK/month) are better options. Fresh Fitness also has no sauna.
SATS Standard Oslo (699 NOK/month) is worth it if you: (1) want pool + sauna (Røa), (2) want sauna access across select Oslo locations, or (3) also want group classes. If you just want sauna + swimming as cheaply as possible, Tøyen bad (165 NOK/month) is better. If you just want cheap training without sauna, choose Fitness24Seven (349 NOK) or Evo (399-449 NOK).
Capacity varies between locations. Colosseum has a large sauna that rarely has queues. Smaller locations like Torshov and Helsfyr can have queues during peak hours (17–19). Tip: train between 10 and 15 on weekdays for best access. Sauna access is included in all SATS tiers at no extra cost.
SATS sauna is reserved for members and is included in the membership – you pay no extra for it. You can go straight to the sauna without working out. Some locations require you to check in at reception. There is no day pass for sauna only at SATS.
Most SATS Oslo locations have a Finnish sauna (dry heat, 80–100°C). Whether a specific location also has a steam sauna (humid heat) varies by centre. Check the specific location's facilities on sats.no to confirm what is available at your gym.
