From UC T&Cs
Note: Most/All of the Polaris lounges have a sleeping / day bed area
Sleeping is prohibited in all United Club locations.
The Polaris Lounge at ORD and SFO each have four sleeping cubicles (near the restroom at ORD, near the showers at SFO). Feel free to nod off there.
The GFL at LHR has a section with around a half-dozen lie-flattish platform where you can doze too. Not really too private.

Is sleeping allowed at any United {Club} lounges?

Between flights on long layovers at the United Club (just got off a brutal redeye) I like to just close my eyes just for a bit not really sleeping, but with eyes closed- kinda slouching, relaxing. Got yelled at to sit up straight by a United dragon who said I had to be sitting up straight and not sleeping- never had a problem before lol! New Rule? Thoughts?
Reminds me of grade school!
(She kept checking up on me too lol was the most ridiculous thing!)

Lol! just listening to music and having my eyes closed. Pretty sure if i was sleeping I wouldn't have even heard her command me the first time!

I've never heard this before and I'm not sure what the problem would be so long as you're sitting in a chair and not snoring or otherwise disturbing other passengers.

Happened to me at IAH PC
About 2002... had a long layover coming in from Rio, and I knew where a comfy couch was. Maybe I didn't know better (low status, didn't have a membership, just had a day pass from my CO Silver membership kit), but I didn't see the harm in laying down for a bit in an empty club. I got shaken awake and was told my feet had to stay on the floor. Subsequent trips thru the same club, I would see families all sacked out on the same sofa, which struck me as unfair.
I see people resting eyes all the time, while sitting/slouching in a chair. Who cares
So, same question as a previous poster - which location?

Please send an email to United.
I am willing to bet that this was not a regular United Club employee, but someone working for "vacation coverage."
People sleep in United Clubs all the time, especially in designated quiet rooms. There is no rule.
There was once a really loud snorer in the Global First Lounge at SFO, but nobody interfered with him; we just sat elsewhere.
You will be serving all of us as United Club members by sending an email. United needs to know when an employee enforces fictitious rules.

Interesting. I was napping at a LH Senator Lounge in Frankfurt when the agent pointed me to a designated sleeping area with a comfortable lounges. As they remodel their Senator lounges they are adding more sleeping areas.
Too bad, UA can't follow suit.
