The Berlin Sex Scene. A Beginner's Guide.

The purpose of this report is to give a brief overview of the current sex scene in Berlin as at October 2014. The report is aimed at new / infrequent visitors to this forum and is not a detailed survey. I have recycled some material from previous postings on this board by myself and others. If you want more in depth information on any aspect, the best thing to do is to use the search facility on this forum. Just enter a keyword such as 'Bel Ami', or 'Stephanie' and a list of relevant reports will be generated. Alternatively, there is an excellent website http://www.berlinintim.de that has links to all the principal agencies, clubs, strip joints and brothels in town (German language only). Another excellent source is http://www.rotlichtadresse.de/ which also supplies links to all the major venues in town.

I have divided the report into the following sections:

1 FKK Artemis.

2 Flat Rate Clubs.

3 Brothels (Bordelles).

4 Escort Agencies.

5 Strip Clubs.

6 Sex Cinemas (Kinos).

7 Gang Bang Parties.

8 Street Prostitution.

9 Other.

A quick word first about the law in Germany regarding prostitution. It is legal in Germany, and quite carefully regulated. In proper, licensed premises, the girls are formally registered with the state, pay taxes on their earnings and are subject to periodic health checks. More information on this aspect can be found here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostitution_in_Germany...

There is far less stigma in Germany attached to the practice of prostitution than almost anywhere else in the world, and brothels operate in residential apartment blocks just as strip clubs stand next door to bakeries and dressmakers' shops in relative harmony. In Germany it's not necessary to creep about nervously in the red light district trying not to be observed if concerned about being caught out then just avoid the Thai hand job parlour next to your bank manager's office.

'Safe Sex' is the general rule in Germany, so the menu in most places will comprise oral sex without condom, but covered vaginal and anal sex.

1 FKK Artemis.

This club is sufficiently important in the Berlin firmament to warrant its own section. FKK is a Germanic naturist movement, whose most concrete representation in modern Germany is to be found in the proliferation of FKK clubs across almost every big conurbation in the country (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freikoerperkultur for more info on the origins of this movement).

FKK clubs essentially large brothels, almost always with some spa or health club facilities attached to them, and usually with swimming pools and saunas too. In brothels however, you are usually led to a private room to select a companion and contact with other punters is expressly avoided. FKK clubs are totally different, there are extensive public areas. The girls and the male guests routinely hang around in the lounge or spa areas in mixed company and the changing areas and showers are also designated public areas.

Typically you would pay an entrance fee (80 E at Artemis) entitling you to free use of the club and free soft drinks and food all day. Sex costs extra and is payable to the girls. You put your valuables in a small private safe, undress, shower and put on a dressing gown. The bar will be full of scantily-clad girls and a number of other men similarly attired. Chat to a few girls, pick one you like and go with her to the room for as long as you like or can afford. 'Basic Service' includes uncovered BJ and protected sex. Kissing and reverse oral are examples of non-cost items that the girl may or may not like to indulge in. Anal sex, CIM (cum in mouth) and CIF (cum in face) are examples of additional services that may be available, and if they are then a price supplement would apply. Each 30 minutes (or any part thereof) costs 60 E, and additional services attract an additional cost. All money is paid to the girl after the session ends, in cash.

The FKK model offers many advantages. The chance to mingle with the girls before making your selection is a huge benefit. But FKK doesn't suit everybody; many people are concerned about the public interaction. It's not the purpose of this report to weigh those arguments here the Artemis thread on this website covers these questions in extraordinary depth and should prove very informative for anybody who is interested in learning more about the attractions and challenges of the FKK scene.

http://www.internationalsexguide.inf...Artemis-Berlin.

2 Flat Rate Clubs.

There are two main venues in town, Caligula and King George. The basic premise of a flat-rate club is that you pay an entry fee of around 100 euros and you are then free to fuck as many girls as you like without further cost.

There is the option to incur extra charges if you choose to do so, for elongated sessions or for additional sexual services that the girl may offer such as anal sex. These additional costs, plus any tips they pick up, are a big part of the girls' income, but that aside there is little incentive for them to give their best because what you essentially are getting from them is 'a free fuck'.

Herein lies both the benefit and essential weakness of the flat-rates system. You get as much sex as you want with as many of the house ladies as you desire (can stomach? But the quality of service is undermined by the absence of any real incentive on the part of the girls.

Facilities for cleaning up between sessions are minimal / non-existent, public areas are dimly-lit and basic. Of the two, KG would appear to have received more favourably reviewed over the years on these pages.

The flat rate model is probably the best way of having sex with numerous girls in a controlled environment for a relatively modest sum of money. As such, they are a viable option for anyone mongering on a budget. Search for reviews on this forum for Caligula and KG and decide if it sounds like your sort of thing. A very good recent report on Caligula can be read here:

http://www.internationalsexguide.inf 062&viewfull=1#post1566062.

3 Brothels (Bordelles).

Most of the bordelles in Berlin are to be found in residential apartment blocks. A number of the better ones are to be found in the Wilmersdorf area just west of the central zone, but there are viable options in almost every district. Much of what follows will be obvious to many people. The intention is to give some broad picture of the way these places function in Berlin for those people who are wholly unfamiliar.

The procedure is largely the same in all of them. You have the option to make an advance reservation with a specific girl at a specific time, or you can come to the bordelle and select from the 'line-up'. In the latter case, you would ring the doorbell, get buzzed in, probably be met at the flat entrance door by the house madam, be shown to a private room and invited to meet the girls. They will then come in one by one, introduce themselves and quickly leave. The number of girls in the parade varies from bordelle to bordelle, but typically there will be between 3 and 8 girls to choose from. You will only get about 15/30 seconds with each girl to make your assessment, which is one of the reasons many people prefer the FKK model described above. You are welcome to ask any questions of the girls at this time, such as whether she offers any particular extras that interest you, or where she is from and what languages she speaks. Sharing a language with a girl is a definite advantage. The madam will return and ask you if you have made a selection. Of course you are welcome to decline the entire line-up and leave if that is your preference. That would be in no way considered rude or improper, and if there is nobody who takes your fancy then that is exactly what you should do.

If you decide to go with one of the girls, you tell the madam her name and you will probably be shown to the room to wait for her. When she arrives she will ask you how long you want to stay and what extras you want. You agree a schedule, pay the money, take a shower if you choose (advisable), and then return to the room to consummate the arrangement.

Pricing in the bordelle market is far from standardised. There is a wide spectrum ranging from about 60 euros for a one hour session up to 150+. The quality of looks, service and facilities in these places is also wide-ranging, but price / quality correlation is far from perfect and the best experiences are by no means to be found exclusively in the most expensive establishments.

Berlin-intim. De is an excellent resource for researching bordelles. Here you can link to the websites of most of the major houses. Many of these websites will have an English language page, almost all will have pricing details and opening hours. Most importantly, there are pictures of the girls and they are (almost) universally genuine, although sometimes photo shopped.

Reviews of the various clubs and some of the girls there can be found via the search function on this website. As a brief guide, the two premier and most established bordelles in town are probably Van Kampen and Kamilla Dee. They are both good, arguably excellent, brothels, although the members of this forum seem to have quite a clear preference for KD. They are similarly priced.

More expensive is Bar Rouge in Mitte, a slightly different set up, on a lounge theme. It has been positively reviewed on a number of occasions here.

Perhaps a fraction below KD and VK in terms of both pricing and historic prestige lie Royal, Monrouge, Liberty and Tiffany. There are numerous reviews on the Berlin thread for all of these bordelles. Various people have debated here the relative merits of these places, but it is probably fair to say that all four of these operations have proved over a number of years to be reliable and well-run brothels housing attractive, sexy girls who give good service. There are many who consider these places to be at least the equal of VK and KD.

There are many notable bordelles in the mid-market section. Prestige has many admirers here; Gina's Tango Rosa (very recently reviewed favourably by a distinguished forumite) and Herz have both been successful for a long time. Ibrahimovic did a survey of some of the mid-priced bordelles which you can read here:

http://www.internationalsexguide.inf 451&viewfull=1#post1625451.

The only Laufhaus (walk-up brothel) in Berlin of which I'm aware is Freudenhaus Hase in Wedding, north of the city centre. Search reports on the Berlin thread or visit their website here:

http://www.freudenhaus-hase.de

Most of the bordelles named above are amongst the largest in town as well as being among the more expensive. There are dozens of smaller and often cheaper places dotted about town. These tend to go up and down in quality somewhat over time, and the best recommendation is probably to check for recent reports on this board for up to date advice on the smaller bordelles.

4 - Escort Agencies.

Some of the larger bordelles including Royal, Monrouge and VK offer escort services alongside their mainstream activities. If you book a girl from one of the bordelles then there will be a price supplement payable for the outcall factor. The majority of Berlin escort agencies however are stand-alone operations. The procedure for seeing one of the girls advertised on an escort agency website is pretty universal. You call (speaking German helps of course, although there will usually be an English-speaker in the house), establish the availability of the girl that interests you, book a time and place for her to visit (your hotel room perhaps. Shouldn't be any issue with the hotel management, it happens all the time in Berlin) and pay her on arrival.

In choosing a girl, a good first step is to identify a reliable agency. Berlin-intim. De again provides links to dozens of agencies in town, divided into assorted price categories. ISG search functions will lead you to reviews of various individual girls. An agency whose girls have been the subject largely of positive reviews from various experienced posters is probably a sound bet.

Choosing an escort is an even trickier exercise than selecting in a bordelle. In a bordelle you at least get to see the girl in person before you commit to pay for sex with her, with an escort you have nothing to rely upon other than her online photo and whatever information you can gather from sources such as this website. If a girl receives a favourable review from an experienced member of this forum, then that is probably a reliable indicator. That aside, the selection of agency escorts is a bit of a lottery. Some of the agencies that have been sampled and favourably reviewed on this forum include.

http://sexy-girls-escort.de/

http://www.escort-sex24.de/

http://www.escortmodelle24.de/

http://www.escortgirlsberlin.de/

http://www.klein-zierlich.de/ (currently on extended break).

There are a large number of escorts advertising themselves as independents. These ladies claim not to be attached to any agency, which may or may not be the case in reality. Independents should be cheaper in theory because there is no agency 'middle-man' taking a cut out of the transaction. The flip side is that there is nobody to complain to if for any reason you are unhappy with the girl.

Berlin-intim once again has extensive listings. Many of the international girls advertise here. Kaufmich. De also has many independent girls offering a range of services, and a lot of genuine German 'hobbyhuren' are to be found here.

The independent market can be fruitful if you know the Berlin scene and / or speak the language. If you are new in town and favour an independent escort then you would be well advised to seek out somebody who has been positively reviewed on one of the forums such as this one.

5 Strip Clubs.

Strip clubs in Berlin take the form largely of American-style table dance clubs. Girls take turns at pole dancing on a centre stage and offer private topless / nude table dances for about 20 E a pop. 'VIP' dances are usually available in private booths and many clubs also offer full sex at additional cost.

This forum is light on strip club reports not terribly surprising given that full sex for less money is available through a variety of different media and the informed mongers who utilise this forum are no doubt spending their money more fruitfully in bordelles and FKK clubs rather than frittering it away in strip clubs that are mostly there to trap tourists and people who are unfamiliar with Berlin's sex scene.

For those who are interested in whiling away a few hours in strip clubs, here is a list of a few of the more prominent establishments:

http://www.club-cleopatra-berlin.de/

http://www.tabu-bar.de/

http://apropos24.info/

6 Sex Cinemas (Kinos).

This is another area of opportunity that has been given minimal coverage on ISG. Angus McGee did a survey about 5 years ago, but that information is mostly historic now. An entrance fee of about 20 E admits you to the Kino. Expect to be approached by one of the house ladies as soon as you sit down to watch the film. You will be offered company while you watch, or the option to go to a private room. Services range from a hand-job to full sex depending on the Kino and the girl. Here is a list of a few Kinos still operating in Berlin of these I gather that PaolasSexKino in Schoeneberg is the longest-standing and most reputable.

http://www.kaisers-relaxkino.de/

http://www.berlinintim.de/Sexkino-Pr...inSd-7490.html

http://www.berlinintim.de/Sexkino-SE...TICA-6140.html

http://www.berlinintim.de/Sexkino-Pa...Kino-7367.html

7 Gangbang parties.

It would appear that the place to go in Berlin for swingers and gangbangers is Erlebniswohnung. They have an English language website here: http://www.erlebniswohnung.com/en/..

Contributor Diplomat recently wrote an excellent piece on this subject which you can read here:- http://www.internationalsexguide.inf. 733&viewfull=1#post1634733.

There are many detailed reports in the Berlin forum and there is a dedicated thread that you can follow here:

http://www.internationalsexguide.inf...ng- Club-Berlin.

8 Street Prostitution.

The writer has no personal experience at all of this particular area of opportunity within the Berlin sex market, and as such the contents of this section have been lifted from the contributions of esteemed colleagues on this board who specialise in this activity. In particular, Wanking has written extensively about the street scene and has vast experience. His reports are mandatory preparatory reading for anybody interested in taking part.

The main centres of activity appear to be on Orianenburgerstrasse and Bulowstrasse in Kreuzberg, and Kurfurstenstrasse in Charlottenburg. If you drive down these street after dark you will always see scantily-clad ladies lining the road, even in the depths of winter. In terms of looks they range from super-hot to the worst dregs of the crack- community. Prices can be cheap, 20 E would appear to be the starting rate.

Engaging prostitutes on the street carries numerous risks. There are health issues to be concerned about, as well as theft. And this forum is replete with unhappy tales of punters getting wholly ripped off by girls who agree one thing but then refuse to deliver without further and additional payment. Of course, for some people these risks are a large part of the illicit attraction that they get from street prostitution, but most of these guys are very street-savvy mongers (like Wanking) who have been at it for years and know exactly how to get what they want. I'm sure that the vast majority of experienced punters would advise a newbie Berlin monger to avoid the street scene altogether and stick to the licensed clubs and brothels in town. Here follows a salutary account of one newbie's unhappy recent experience on the street:

http://www.internationalsexguide.inf 689&viewfull=1#post1617689.

9 Other.

There is quite a significant demand for 'AO' sex in Berlin, it would appear. 'AO' means 'alles ohne' and refers to sex (vaginal and anal) without condom. As mentioned in the intro, 'Safe Sex' is the way of things in most places, but there are establishments that cater for the AO community. ISG has a separate forum for this activity info and recommendations can be found there.

Berlin has a tradition for being a haven for 'swingers', and there are a number of clubs that host swinger parties. The gangbang section on ISG is your best reference for options in this field.

I imagine the fetish community are also well catered for in Berlin, although there is not much discussion on these pages. A number of the large brothels offer BDSM services and some have theme rooms kitted out as 'dungeons'. There are numerous independents who advertise all sorts of bizarre services in this field Kaufmich. De is a good place to search for candidates.

Tantra massage is quite well covered in the ISG Berlin forum. There are a number of parlours that are exclusively tantra studios just input the word 'tantra' into the search field. The postings of retired member Angus McGee should be especially useful to anybody interested in tantra as Angus was quite a devotee of this variant.

I would add the massage scene. There are a lot of opportunities.

At the end you wrote a few words about it but I think this is especially for beginners a good, safe and secure opportunity to have fun in Berlin. You can find those shops all over the town. The services that are offered a different, some only offer a handjob and some the full service. You can find some here.

https://www.rotlichtmodelle.de/massagen/

The small Thai massage shops are another option to find extra services, some of them offer there services also online. You have to negotiate those services, sometimes a handjob is included.

Markt. De quokka. De ladies. De or asialadies. De.

For those who don't speak German use the chrome Browser for translating. It's the easiest way.

Some of these small massage shops have a website and you can read we don't offer sexual services. As long as you find an online recommendation usually you can ignore that. I would try to find more then one recommendation to be sure that it works. Another way to be sure that you get extra services ask if you can see the stuff and choose your favorite lady. You can also ask to take off everything because the oil that you don't like on your clothes. But don't try to ask them on the phone the answer will be always no. You have to do it face to face in the room with the massage lady. That sounds more difficult then it is.

Great guide and report. I plan to visit Germany in the near future and you have summarized all the venues in a factual and pragmatic way. This is very helpful and a field time saver. Thank you.

Hello people,

I am traveling to Berlin next week and I wanted more information about specific clubs.

Of course I have already read the beginners guide to Berlin but I couldn't find information about 2 clubs.

1. Nachtclub Alibi.

2. ginas-tango-rosa. De.

And the last question is how can you tell if the girl is willing to give you a good service and not a technical one you just fuck and go?

Thanks everybody for the answers.

Mark.

This is great info and thank you for posting.

My idea is to try out the independent to see if I can get DFK and BBJ, as these are now upsell af the FKKs.

I noticed that Kaufmich. De has girls form all over Germany listed. What city do you think woudl be the best for finding inependents through the site? Berlin? Franfurt?

Thanks in advance for any info you guys can provide!

Brief update with more current prices and situation as of 2023.

Artemis is a sex factory based on turnover, for both men and girls. If you just want to get rocks off, and at least have some time to choose (where you can at least chat for a while before deciding), maybe it's worth a look. But it is pretty emotionally dead, the girls mostly want to just do 10+ guys per day (not unlike what many of the dudes also want), and you need to be in a particular mind set to deal with it. During a trade fair (Messe) the crowding can be awful, the main room smokey and jammed, and by October, who knows where we will be re: Covid. So you need to check all that for your travel dates if you decide to visit.

In the old days (pre Covid) Artemis might have 80-100 girls on the power nights (Thurs-Sat). Those days are long gone. With the 90 Eur entrance fee, and 70-100 Eur for a 30 min session depending upon who and what. , it can quickly get expensive. If you are intent on having 3+ sessions over a who knows 10 hour stay, you can argue the prices are not so bad. Throw in a few meals, a pool, sauna, gym, kino. But, the vibe has changed a lot; from those I know who occasionally go there. Far fewer locals on both sides, less overall supply and demand, more hardened (see thread below). But of course, maybe you can find a diamond in the rough. The odds on this have simply decreased. All this arguably worth a look, it is surely different from what you've experienced; but never be afraid to just leave without participating in anything, even if it means absorbing some sunk costs.

One might say the same about various sex / quasi sex friendly clubs like Insomnia, Berghain, KitKat etc. All very Berlin, certainly eye-popping occasionally, but hit and miss.

Escort (150-500+ Eur / HR) can (or not) be better but it is hit and miss; you never know really who will pitch up at the door, nor how your mutual chemistry will be.

There are hundreds of independents whom you can visit (kaufmich. De), but again hit and miss. A mix of in and out-call.

There are 20 or so private bordello apartments, where you can visit, have some choice and can chat briefly to see if there is some spark between you. There are higher, middle, and low end places, typically (140-170+ Eur / HR) depending as always upon who and what.

Getting around Berlin, using the transit system (BVG) is cheap and straightforward so wherever you sleep vs wherever you might go is really not an issue. If the weather is ok, a bicycle is really useful and most of the city (from the center) is within a 30 min ride. In a pinch, there is car sharing or Bolt drivers.

The easiest way to get your head around all this is to skim through 2 fora: the internationalsexguide. NL (see the Germany-Berlin and German FKK Clubs-FKK Artemis Threads) which are in English. A slightly dated but still very useful overview of all Berlin is below (internationalsexguide. NL / forum / showthread. Php?4033-The-Berlin-Sex-Scene. -A-Beginner-s-Guide) These fora are useful if you want detailed answers to further questions. If you hunt around this last thread, you can also see a useful list of German sex slang words translated, which might come in handy during any negotiating.

Much more useful info but a bit scattered is the local bible https://huren-test-forum.lusthaus.cc/forumdisplay.php?f=10 in German, but there is (sort of) a built-in translator, if you look at the top, and you can always dump pages into DeepL or Google Translator if necessary. You can at least see who has a decent reputation vs. Schemes and scams. But it does require some study. Scores of horny reporters taking the pulse of the city every day.

All these discuss prices and the next new thing (like e. G. Cyberdolls with VR headset options), which always has to be taken with a grain of salt. The whole Berlin scene has changed a lot since Covid: higher prices obviously, much more influx of Latinas, Ukrainians, other E Europe, lots of great local girls have left the scene. It all needs more preparation. If you read the fora above, you will see all this reflected in the comments.

Another tip: if you are looking at e. G. BerlinIntim (discussed in this thread) or Kaufmich, or especially the Escort services, and even private apartments or massage studios, it is always a good idea to check image origins. Yandex, Tineye, Google Images, with simple cut and paste or URL reference, can help check if the pictures are original, or "borrowed" from some porn or model site. Not foolproof, but this can save a lot of pointless time and energy wasted. This has unfortunately become more of an issue over the past few years. (One can only shudder about what is no doubt coming thanks to AI image creation).

Now, all this just info and logistics. There is no way to predict the actual mutual chemistry you and a given partner will or will not feel at a given moment. You have to be prepared for rejection, disappointment, and scams, just like in the real world. You also have to decide if you want the option to bail out of a given encounter, with little cost (in all senses) before you commit.

P4 P is what it is. You can search and find some, a little, or no connection. You will have to feel the vibe both ways to decide what makes sense for you. A lot of this is a taste thing (duh) but worth saying. Some prefer a natural look; others fancy porno tats and implants, etc. Same goes for the providers. With enough financial pressure and / or drugs, sex can just be "delivered". For some that is enough- there is a German word for this: "optifick". For sure, if you want a more pleasant, human experience, there has to be some minimal spark both ways. Take the trouble to find that, if you go down this route. Good luck and be gentle, respectful, and safe.
