Love Hotels

Originally offering young couples the chance to have sex without being in the family home. Most are modern and offer good facilities with rates varying depending on where they are located and how long you stay for. Expect to pay in the region of 3000 ($27) to 7000 Yen ($63).

Most are easy to spot with kitsch and brightly lit neon signage with tell-tale names like the ‘Hotel Casa Nova’. They often have vending machines inside with a good range of sex toys, porn and novelty items. Some are also well-stocked with DVD players, karaoke machines you could try this out and mini-bars.

Dogenzaka in Shibuya has a high number of these short term hotels, earning itself the nickname ‘Love Hotel Hill’. However, you can find them around the city and if you pick up a prostitute they will usually have a preferred love hotel for you to use. Be aware that you will need to pick up the cost of the room in addition to her service fees.

Also known as pinsaros and pink salons, blowjob bars are quick service stores that provide oral relief (usually for a set time of 20-30 minutes). They can legally operate as long as there are no private rooms and shower facilities. As a result, the system is a basic one; you arrive, pay for your playtime and either select a girl (this costs extra) or take whoever is available. You are then seated in a semi-private or less than private seat. Sometimes a curtain is drawn around you. Your host will clean your genitals with a warm towel or give you a light sponge down before starting the service. Some hosts will be topless and let you touch them, most will not.
