If Emporium is telling guys up front there's a mandatory 200k tip none of us should complain. We just add 200k to the price that is quoted and it's up to us to take a girl or not. Emporium is doing this I'm guessing because a lot of guys had been coming in and tipping 50-100k or not tipping at all. Problem is now girls feel all they have to do is basic service and receive 200k tip. If they give excellent service they want 300+k. Slippery slope. Again, we can go or not go just know what the TRUE cost is.

Who says there's a mandatory tip, the girls? Or the security guard? Because I get this quoted to me in places from Shenzhen, China to Bangkok and when I have a bad experience I put zero, take a photo of the receipt and then I don't need to pay.

Unless it's written in black and white definitely don't believe everything they say verbally.

Some of the Emporium girls are willing to come outside after the work. With the permission of management to make extra money. Girl from Emporium told me that way. I prefer LT sometimes, if so anyone tried that way, how much will be to give them LT?

I was given the information by a respected board member to correct me when I told him there was only Royal and Royal VIP within the walls of KI. He directed me to New Royal. I see he still hasn't put up his review (s) yet.

You post a lot so others believe everything you post. But you were wrong. I assume you think that because the member who gave you the information about New Life is a respected member meaning because he posts a lot? Guys post all the time and are wrong. Google Maps is wrong. I checked in person one last time. There is no New Royal by the metro line. New Royal is now Royal. They took down the "New" part of the sign. Look at the old picture from Google Maps. I asked a mamasan at Royal and she said this is New Royal. I went to Royal VIP and asked where is New Royal while showing him the map on my phone. He said it is right around the corner. Volterra was correct in that they are one and the same. I think New Sari Ayu is now just Sari Ayu. But there is only one so no mistake in finding it.

Go to Google Maps. Search New Royal Bar. Maximize / enlarge the picture as much as you can in front of the bar. Double click in the middle of the street. A small pop up should show at the bottom of the screen saying "Street View". Click on that.

Travel is hit and miss. Lately I have had 3 good girls in a row. But now the next one will be a dud since I opened my mouth. But agree that it can be problematic at times there.

To get a Classic girl to your Classic hotel room will be 1,000,000 IDR or more. She is not going to sneak out at her own work place. For example, I tried to get 3 girls from Travel to visit me at Red Star Hotel which is a 2 minutes walk away from Travel and nobody would know. They all quoted 1 million or more. I wanted them to visit me at 3 pm and then walk 2 minutes to start their 4 pm shift. I offered to pay them 500 so they make more money but no go. Both Travel and Classic the mamasans have a pretty tight reign. I and others have posted about how the tone of the girl's text did not match their personalities. I am sure you could get them on an off day or during menstruation or something but too much work. Same thing at Classic. I tried 2 girls and noticed the same "It is policy" answer.

Your advice makes since but not here. You mentioned taking 7+ girls so the mamasan knows you are a good guy and will let the girl go to your Classic hotel room. I asked the mamasan I used the most and she said the same thing the guys on this site said. It will cost you a multiple of 4-5 times the cost of 1 hour because it is considered "off site". I have taken 25 girls from Classic since April and I get the same answer as everyone else.

I finally checked out the infamous Lokasari. There are a few mama sans but you have to kind of know what you are looking for. 500 including the room. Service is very basic. Honestly Classic at the same price has far better selection and you can find gems with good service and cleaner set up. Tried it to say I did. Don't think I would repeat.

Who are you? The real EA was moving from mid-town to uptown. You went downtown. Will the real EA please stand up.

Sorry fellas. I was at this place about six months ago, so I'm not certain if they've since changed the name to VFOUR or something else. After being disappointed with Hotel Travel experience, I booked a Grab to New Royal Bar, and that's where it took me. It's situated in the Kota Indah complex, with Starmoon Bar at the back and the New Royal Bar previously at the front, facing Jl. Pangeran Jayakarta, behind a compound wall. Hope this helps.

Its just a price increase. So assume girls are now 1. 4 and 1. 6 and move on. Tips above that are still optional and in fact even zero above that is acceptable. As someone who always tipped at least 200, it doesn't mean much to me. The 1. 2 category girl only gets 350 K for herself so even with minimum tip she is getting only 550 for serving you for 90 min with hopefully great service. I have been there twice this trip and both times got really good service. I think the girls there are more consistent in both looks and service level than Classic and that's why I am more frequenting Emporium. If the service level drops then I would be unhappy with the situation and find a different playground.

Are you guys just doing a Google Maps search and posting like you know something or have either of you or anybody on this site been there? I went there 4 months ago at 7:00 pm but could not find it. So please give exact directions on where it is. So I am standing in the street in front of Indomaret facing north with the metro to my left. Tell me where the entrance is. I will verify quickly.

I don't like the mandatory tip policy at all. It will let the girls think they can get the tips even they provide lousy service.

Visited Emporium with a friend. While I got a very good service, my friend's experience was so so. To top it off, the girl was not happy that he checked 200 K tip while she was "suggesting" 300 K tip.

Your friend should have asked her to borrow a pen and put a line through the three trailing zeros in 200,000.

Next time I'm visiting, if I get service I don't want to tip for, I'll make that clear, in a polite way of course, to the papasan / mamasan when paying at exit. I'm sure I will have to pay anyway, but this will be a strong minus for Emporivm in my book, and is IMO a stupid idea.

I am looking for a spa in Jakarta in the budget of 600 K maximum where we can spend time with the girl in the pool before going to the room.

Do you know any spas like this?

Thank you.

200k mandatory tip at Emporiuvm is not good and seems steep if girl isn't good. I'm like you I tip what I feel like tipping. It's like going to a restaurant and they already tacked on a 25% tip onto your bill. To me that's not right.

OTH, from all the glowing reviews of Emporium here all girls are phenomenal so 200k mandatory tip seems reasonable.

I just got back from Jakarta. I went looking for the New Royal and couldn't find it. I was standing right at the google maps location but it was no where to be seen. Gave up and took the taxi to Classic.

I finally checked out the infamous Lokasari. <snip> Most are very young and some are quite pretty. 500 including the room. Service is very basic. Honestly Classic at the same price has far better selection and you can find gems with good service and cleaner set up. Tried it to say I did.

This is about the most positive Lokasari report I recall reading and yet EA says he won't repeat. That's cause for concern. How many young and pretty girls were there?

tipped her 200,000. She looked slightly disappointed, but I'm not sure if it was because my tip was too small compared to what is normal, or because she expected me to tip the same amount as before.

I later read here that Emporivm recently introduced a mandatory 200,000 tip (can't really call it "tip" then, can you?), so I'm guessing her disappointment was perhaps instead that I only "tipped" the bare minimum.

At classic I tipped 100,000 normally if service was good. Based on the few reactions received, this was "ok". Neither very good nor very bad.

Emporium girl expected the same 500k tip. Girls remember what 'big' tippers give them. Curious if you receive the same service if you repeat again.

200k mandatory tip at Emporiuvm is not good and seems steep if girl isn't good. I'm like you I tip what I feel like tipping. It's like going to a restaurant and they already tacked on a 25% tip onto your bill. To me that's not right.

Sorry I should have said I have never been in my original post.

I see he still hasn't put up his review (s) yet. Apologies LoveitHere.

I have been going through the advts of diff service providers and want to know what does HJ, BJ, FJ mean?

I think HJ is hand job, Blow Job but what is FJ.

I finally checked out the infamous Lokasari. Don't expect it to be like Sukhumvit at night. There are a few mama sans but you have to kind of know what you are looking for. The mama sans have a handful of girls, they call them and do a small line up on the street. Most are very young and some are quite pretty. 500 including the room. Service is very basic. Honestly Classic at the same price has far better selection and you can find gems with good service and cleaner set up. Tried it to say I did. Don't think I would repeat. Mama san would send girls to your hotel for 2-3 hours short time for 700 k.

I've hardly come across positive reviews for this place and based on my personal experience I strongly advise visiting against Travel. Location is not a problem, my issue is with service. I checked up personally with a few girls and they said no to DFK and BBBJ. Asked mama's to convince the girls for the same and mama's turned around and said this is a no zone. Ordered grab bike and on to classic with no regrets.

I completely agree with you on Travel. To me not getting DFK is a deal breaker, and this is the only bar girls wouldn't be open to DFK, don't know why. I was able to negotiate and get DFK at most other bars.
