Planet Eden

[Tjohoo]

New name new concept, but the link isn't working and I can't find anything regarding Planet Eden. Is the place still open and just operating under a new name? I'm hoping to head there tomorrow but will likely end up in Sixsens if this place is closed. I appreciate any helpful info.

Hi!

If you have 2. 480.000 E you can buy the real estate of the former Eden.

I guess they had to do something because I imagine the overheads of running a club that size are pretty high. Not certain that an Oceans-esque comedy payment system is the way forwards though. What they really need is a lineup.

It's a shame because, hardware wise, it's a decent club. Massive restaurant (by club standards) and that wellness building must have cost a pretty penny.

Now called Sauna Club Life with some strange pricing initiatives on their website (Silver / Gold / Platinum entry options). 4 euro for dressing gown, 2 euro for this, 2 euro for that. It didn't look very busy when I drove past the other day and I don' think I will be in a hurry to visit!

The pricing system isn't that strange.

Option A is to pay little entry and pay the extra fees for anything you want, some other clubs have the same set up (Feigenblatt, Hautnah and to some extent Goch).

Option be is the normal type of entry where you pay around 50 and everyrhing is included.

Option see is very expensive and includes a bottle of liquor. It seems this option is cheaper than normal entry plus a bottle.

There are many reasons why the club doesn't work well, but especially option A might draw some people to have a quick look if they don't have much time. Like I have done many times in Feigenblatt, Neby or H7.

I took a trip to Planet Eden on Tuesday 17th May. Not much had changed since my last visit with the team working hard getting the place ready for when (if) summer arrives. Many of the facilities were not working which was a shame (The Steam Room was broken, the Whirlpool could be turned on but not off as the switch was not working so I guess the Electricity bill will be through the roof, the change machine for the gaming area was also broken and to top it off the pool was out of service for the whole day as they had one of those robot machines cleaning the bottom)! The food was fairly good as usual and of course it is available all day so you never go hungry. During midweek days things start slowly in terms of line up and I was hoping to room with the excellent Anna who I had previously been with. I was also looking to tap Daniela who gets glowing reports but neither of the girls were present. I was sitting outside in the sun when I was approached by Eveline a 21-23 year old Romanian, who had only been in the club a few days (so she said). As it was outside she was wrapped in a dressing gown so I didn't catch her whole body but her tits looked nice and big and this got me interested so it was off to the room. The room itself was average and she has quite a large ass that is a funny shape. Her blowjob was abysmal and she really needs to work on this to be a success at this game. Kissing and the rest of the programme was ok though so not a total burnout! Second room of the day was with Denisa who is a three year veteran of the club. She has a professional attitude and her services are ok, although they did feel a bit rushed and I had to ask her to slow down and she was attacking my little man like he was a kilo of steak that needed to be made flat! Kissing, although promised to be with tongues was barely that but again the room was ok but not going to make it into the top 100! I left about 6 pm and there were not many Bears in but then again there never really seems to be that many any time I have been and it is a wonder how it keeps going given the size of the place. It is a great piece of real estate (let down by basic rooms) and it really could be so much more but as others have said, the location is easy to get to but just not ideal for many city based Bears who probably have other options closer to their base.

... the FKK experience I had expected was shattered as they all wore some sort of swimwear, with minimal toplessness.

This may have had to do with the size of the place and what it would cost to keep it warm enough for girls to show much flesh without catching pneumonia.

... and that's when I saw what a disaster the rooms at Eden are. They are small and stuffy with all the ambiance of hospital rooms: some of the worst I've seen in saunaclub-land, despite being pretty new.

Indeed, such a large place overall and ridiculous rooms. Its like an elephant giving birth to a mouse. But this is maybe not surprising since Planet Eden is in the same hands as FKK World, and rooms are not the strong point in World either.

(Continued from Babylon).

Planet Eden was the plan for the evening of the second day of my July 4 weekend; from Elsdorf a bus ride and then the train brought me to Dueren by late afternoon. I got a taxi over to Club Planet Eden in the suburb of Merzenich, which was not very close to where I was staying downtown, so the ride cost almost 15 Euros. Fortunately on the way back I got the club's free car, which I wish I had known about on the way in. The size of Eden impressed me, it was practically a university campus with a large first building (entry, locker rooms, bar, kino, dining room), a dedicated building for bedrooms and excellent wellness facilities (sauna, steam room, pools of different temperatures), and a huge outdoor area with a pool.

Unfortunately, the size of the place impressed me a lot more than the women. The number of girls was not high, the quality did not impress much, they showed no diversity (all Romanian), and the FKK experience I had expected was shattered as they all wore some sort of swimwear, with minimal toplessness.

My first session was ok: I saw Vanessa dancing by the bar and after resisting a while (she was skinnier than I preferred) took her to the kino, hoping her exhibitionist streak would make for a good time. She was fine, and the semi-public sex was fun (though the kino had almost no visitors at the time).

Far better were two sessions with Romanian Irina, a blonde in a kind of lounge-lingerie outfit with an open shirt that allowed some glimpses at her perky boobs. I usually don't go for bottle blondes, but she was rather cute and easily one of the only lookers present. Our first session was out in the garden (which is huge, we were a few dozen meters away from any other people / buildings) on a sort of oversized lounge bed. This outdoor fun in the twilight was fun; she sucked a good dick and I liked her riding me. Chatting her up beforehand was also fun, and I learned that she had been at Finca Erotica several months before, as that club and Eden share the same owner, who had attempted to improve things at Eden by bringing over some of the better FE girls. She was returning there shortly, she told me.

As the night progressed the only highlight was the barbecue dinner. I looked for interesting girls in vain, and so met up with Irina for another session. This time it was indoors, and that's when I saw what a disaster the rooms at Eden are. They are small and stuffy with all the ambiance of hospital rooms: some of the worst I've seen in saunaclub-land, despite being pretty new.

If I had known all this about Eden I would not have rigged my trip so much to include it, and certainly not cut short a promising day at Babylon, but I suppose the lack of reports should have indicated something. And the next day I was on the rails again to an old favorite, World.

Ok yes so bad location, now if this club had opened on a industrial estate in Cologne it would of been great competition for Samya.

[Banana Boi]

What Eden is concerned, it seems to be located in a bad place (easily said afterwards). Not particularly close to Cologne and not particularly close to Belgium and the Netherlands either. You see Babylon (real FKK) is doing ok-ish, Samya is doing well, but mostly people form Cologne itself, the foreigners and people from Aachen prefer to go to Sixsense which closer. Also fairly new and way more succesful than Eden. I just can't think of what Eden brings to the table that is a big draw (and I have been a fair number of times when a favorite moved there for a few months). Party is Samya or Mondial, good sex is Babylon or PSR, a bit o both relatively closeby is LR or Sixsense.

This would have been my response as well. Simply put, poor location. There are better options, coming from every direction.

So I see from your statement two main messages what is also my opinion:

1. Most (maybe only) important are the girls (quality / quantity / service level), all other points like entrance fee, wellness area, lounge / rooms, music and food is more or less irrelevant.

2. The pay sex marketplace with FKK clubs in Germany at least in parts of NRW and around Frankfurt is satiated.

I think that is a good summary. Still new clubs get opened and can be succesful, as long as you set yourself apart from the competition (being cheap helps as well).

For instance Great Palace, which is doing reasonably. It is real FKK in the ruhrpott (unlike Aca or Salome), while also being a club to hang around in for a whole day (unlike Luder Lounge and Neby) and asking just 40 euros entry, with a happy hour of 25 (service 40 for 30 min). In the area that means ticking some boxes that others don't.

Acapulco Gold is doing well with the 30 euro entry and 20 euro happy hour. That is very cheap for Duesseldorf and they have a mix of acapulco girls and former Panthera girls. It is clearly working better than Panthera did the last months before it was sold.

On the other hand you have a club like Oceans which was supposed to be the next big thing, but really offers very little new compared to Magnum, Livingroom, PHG, Dolce Vita etc. You can see now that they have all kinds of discounts for entry and still it is empty (from what I hear). Both girls and regular guests have returned to their "stamm clubs".

Something negative I should add about Planet Aden has to do with the first girl I sessioned there (the 2nd one was all right). This first girl was very average both facially and bodily. When I was tired fucking her in doggy-style my condom was all red outside. We know what that means. The girl didn't seem very unfazed. She muttered something about "first day". But if it was the first day of her period, why was she back among the other few girls shortly after? Maybe she meant "first day of work" (= last day of menstruation). All the same, working while menstruating is something that needs policing by FKK management.

Note that the infamous "new prostituion law" that wants to ban BBBJ has nothing about prostitutes working during their monthly bleeding. "Health", you see, only matters when it's women's health, not men's.

The club just hasn't been able to get enough girls and men for the size of the premises. Ever since it opened as just FKK planet, sister club of World, and since the takeover as well. Add changes to dining option, weird and complicated pricing and you get a club that many people only visit sporadically. Everybody always says the same: great looking club, but dead, so I don't plan coming again soon.

I agree with XXL, I'm baffled how this venue isn't a lot more popular, it's close to the Bel / NL borders, great facilities inside and out, but few girls and few guests, is it just a money laundering business?
