The Yoshiwara Soapland Resource Thread

[Chewie]

Well, hopefully there might be some reviews and a wider selection of girls as I'm going to Japan in a few months. If there's no FS, I might as well just head over to Yoshiwara instead.

Somehow I don't believe a soapland without FS will last long enough to be still operating when you come here.

 

[Hofmeyer]

It's on TNS so of course the article should be taken with a grain of salt but FS is indeed on the table like other soaplands according to their review.

So far the only girl it seems that made the cross from [Redacted] is Chula who was only there for like month or two, she is Mona at Paradise. The other girls are either new or more concerned with keeping the link secret.

Hi all,
Thank you for this thread Soapysoap66.

I've been travelling in Japan for a bit and am now in Tokyo, and was thinking I'd love to experience a soapland, but I think odds are I won't be able to because of a combination of things: I'm a foreigner (I know some japanese, but only the very basics: hello, excuse me, thank you, etc) and... I'm pretty much broke. I think I could spend maybe ¥24k, and that is pushing it already.

I've done some research, including this thread, I've been over pretty much all of the websites listed here https://www.tokyomassages.com/tokyo-soapland-directory-for-foreigner-friendly-brothel-in-japan/ (although I don't know how trustworthy that list is), and tried to have a look at this thread http://tokyoadultguide.com/threads/verified-tokyo-escort-agency-list.10/ but I don't have access to it (the link was in the FAQ for Adult Visitors).

My conclusion is that a place like Putit Royal might be a good yet affordable option, or Club Amour (this https://tokyoadultguide.com/threads/club-amour-osaka-mihiro.12236/ suggests a way lower price than is listed in the OP) (edit: that thread is about the Osaka Club Amour, I just realised. Oops, that explains the discrepancy), also Barubola (I understand that's not in Yoshiwara)...
There are several places that list super low prices, all under the cityheaven.net domain, is that reputable at all?

Basically my question is: is this something that's worth pursuing, or should I just forget about it? If I'm available on Monday morning for instance, and maybe if someone would like to accompany me and handle the communication, is there a chance I'd find something?

I'm totally open to being said just a plain "no"

Thanks!

 

[Hofmeyer]

For that price forget anything that isn't Putit Royal or Cream Lemon. Putit Royal is mostly MILF types while Cream Lemon is younger. Everything else will disappoint you or is cheap for a reason. Cityheaven is just a listing site, they'll list anyone regardless of reputation so it's always better to check reviews rather than just what you see on there.

also Barubola (I understand that's not in Yoshiwara)...

Barubola is expensive like 60.000 or 70.000 yen. If you've read anything cheaper it was probably just the bathing fee..

Putit Royal seems to be your best bet if your Japanese is less than conversational.
It seems like they accept people who dont speak Japanese at all and as long as you dont mind older women, you can have a great time because the ladies are usually very skilled at matplay.

With that budget I would consider lovely hand for hj or a pink salon.

Especially when the last time there was a guide service to Yoshiwara that cost alone was almost half of the budget.

The thing is, the reason I'm interested in soapland in the first place is because it's something that's very specific to Japan. I don't really need to spend any money at all to get something that I could get everywhere!

Thanks for the responses so far, seems like it'd be wiser to pass, until next time if anyone has a miracle idea feel free to share it!

Thank you all for the great thread, which is extremely informative, particularly for a first timer!

I see there is a lot of talk about the service, but not so much about the facilities themselves. May I ask what place has the best and most luxurious facilities and rooms? For me environment is as important as the services; I have no budget limit but it's not easy to understand what place(s) would be nicer.

Good question. It does seem that price of the established does not always depend on how nice the rooms are.

You will find most rooms are basically more or less the same. Points where things can be different are room size, bathtub size etc. From what I remember, Putit Royal, Last Scene and Hishojitsu have had the biggest rooms.

Just wanted to update you, as I said above I ended up deciding to pass for this trip, maybe next time! I ended up putting the money into a stay at a ryokan, which was very good and relaxing. (Although a different kind of "very good and relaxing" haha)

Thanks again the the advice and info!

I followed this table for accepted foreigner, but a number of them don't accept you if your Japanese is bad. I can understand and get by, but I have a natural stutter so it makes me sound more retarded speaking.

Is it possible to track which ones accept those that don't speak Japanese well? it would help a lot. So far Darling harbor accepted me.

 

[kramal]

but a number of them don't accept you if your Japanese is bad.

Which ones? Would be helpful to know if you already tried them.

Putit Royal would also accept foreigners with bad to no Japanese from what i have heard.
Kings club also, they dont have a very good reputation though.
There was a place with a foreign male staff, kinpeibai if i'm correct, so if he still works there they could assist in english.
Sweet kiss has an english website so i assume they are totally foreign friendly. Satin doll would maybe also work out. Landmark seems ok. I think Don Juan (shinjuku) as well. But those last three are top price.

Not in Yoshiwara or central Tokyo but Paradise in Kawasaki is totally aimed at foreigners.

It seems that most of the "amateur" type shops who often have younger girls at cheaper prices do require Japanese language ability.
Examples would be Charmant, Dolce, Cream Lemon, Mister Dandy.
I dont think you can get into those.

Thank you for this reply. sorry I was not clear, I did go to Dolce and Charmant and got turned away when the counter guy started talking too fast for me.

I suppose it could be added, but I would be totally relying on user reports and fact of the matter is that everyone's mileage may vary. My official stance is please try to learn Japanese. I am now also officially "off the market" which means no more p4p and a less active presence here.

In short, there are no guarantees in Yoshiwara. If they think you are retarded my guess is most shops will turn you down regardless.

So, I'll be traveling to Tokyo next month to try out a Soapland for the first time. I was wondering if I could have someone here to help me set up a visit for a good time (if that's even a thing). Maybe just meet up near the area and guide me through things y'know?

I've been doing meticulous research/planning on board posts on venues & reviews, but I'm not entirely confident of my very basic Japanese. So I'm afraid of being turned down, overpaying, and/or receiving terrible service. I read too many stories about people walking into their anticipated venue and being offered only the one option of a gaijin-only girl faaar below their expectations.

If it matters: I'm an american east-asian male in my 20's.
I'll gladly buy you dinner or a beer ... or pay you I suppose lol. Or hey maybe we can make a guys-night-out of it and hit up the night-life afterwards.

I'd be down if I was still in country. But really, just get into the district (if you need direction just ask if you need that too) look carefully and at some of the reviews here. It's okay to mess up on Japanese, some guys at the shops try their best to talk English. Sometimes you gotta roll the dice. What's your price range like?

Overpaying is rare imho. Just check the pricing before you go. You can't really be guaranteed a good time no matter where you go but if you stick with something safe like Darling Harbour you should be fine.

I'd point him to Blue Lagoon if it still existed.

I'm keeping darling harbor as my go-to safest option. But I'm trying to see if I can aim for someone specific to my liking. Also, fat chance but I'm also currently trying to inquire about seeing Rena Fukishi (a JAV star) at l-mark, for whom I'm willing to throw down more than double the price for. From my email exchanges though, doesn't seem likely to happen (popularity, membership, preference towards previous visitors, etc).

My price range is the normal value that I'm seeing (20 k to 30.5 k). For the most part, I'd like to have someone there with me to help me negotiate. I read a number of reviews where guys 'pretend to walk out' or sweet-talk their way to more options/gals, and it'd be nice to have someone there with me with since I'd probably blow it attempt to do so myself. I'm not trying to sound entitled lol; I'm very aware that as a first-time visitor with limited speaking skills, my options are probably limited. But if anything, having a peer with me will at least give me some peace of mind if nothing else haha

what does it mean on the additional note when it says condom? You can go in raw if it's not mentioned 0.o
