In today’s Japanese cities, adult venues are carefully designed social spaces: reception desks by the street or inside a building, softly lit lounges, or fully private rooms with baths (soapland). “Fashion health” is a short, private room format centered on close contact and oral contact within a timed session; pink salons are seated/booth style with oral contact in very short sets; delivery health dispatches a companion to a hotel/home; soapland combines bathing and intimate body-to-body routines in a private suite. Users span 20s–50s locals and visitors; languages and card payments are increasingly supported. These places are woven into the night-time city—near stations, late hours, quick in-and-out flows—so planning time, price, and access is key.

1. Overview: What are the real-world price bands?

風俗の値段はいくら？ The best way to read the market is to look at official price pages. For example, a Kyoto fashion health shows ¥13,000–¥14,000/40 min and ¥20,000–¥22,000/60 min (Official website (Japanese)). A Shinjuku fashion health runs 9:00–24:00 and posts frequent discounts like ¥7,000/35–40 min campaign slots (Official website (Japanese)). Pink salon deals in Kabukichō publish 20 min ¥3,500–¥5,000 or 30 min ¥5,000–¥7,000 during campaigns (Official website (Japanese)). Delivery health in Tokyo/Osaka typically lists ¥18,500–¥25,500 for 60–90 min (e.g., Tokyo Otsuka model with time-banded pricing, and Osaka Umeda model with 60–180 min menu: Official (Tokyo), Official (Osaka)). High-end soaplands in Yoshiwara publish an admission (bath) fee—e.g., ¥33,000/120 min (admission)—and note that totals are confirmed by phone (Official website (Japanese)).

1-1 Area overview

Tokyo (Shinjuku/Kabukichō, Ikebukuro), Osaka (Umeda/Nihonbashi), Kyoto (Kawaramachi), and Tokyo’s Yoshiwara (soapland district) are dense, near major stations, with long hours and clear reception flows. Confirm station exits and walking times on official pages (examples in Section 2).

Short-session formats (pink salon, fashion health) cluster around busy stations. Soaplands concentrate in bounded districts (e.g., Yoshiwara). Delivery health dispatch ranges by ward, often with separate transport fees.

Reception → choose session length/companion → pay → private room/booth or hotel room (for delivery health) → timed session (often includes shower; soapland includes bathing rituals) → exit. Many shops allow phone/online booking; some run walk-in queues with early-day discounts.

6. Summary and Next Steps

To recap: short formats near stations offer the lowest entry cost; delivery health quotes are clear on time and transport; soaplands show an admission fee and give totals by phone. Always read the official page: hours, exits, time bands, and reservation windows are prominently posted. With those basics, you can compare apples to apples in minutes.

SoapEmpire’s Recommendation: If you’re navigating 風俗の値段はいくら？ as a first-timer, the hardest part is not the money—it’s the system. Prices look similar at a glance, but formats, time bands, and campaign windows make the “real” total shift by thousands of yen. The safest, most efficient path is to decide your format first: do you want a short, booth-style experience (pink salon), a compact private room (fashion health), a hotel-room dispatch (delivery health), or a full ritual in a private suite (soapland)? From there, lock a time window. Many venues post early-day or weekday discounts; delivery health often varies by hour and includes transport. Finally, call once to confirm the total and the meeting point. That one minute on the phone saves you waiting, confusion, and surprise fees.

As the English Nightlife Editor, our view is practical: choose a venue with clear official pages, stable hours, and a trackable reservation rule. For fashion health, look for explicit 40–60 minute menus and a station walk under five minutes. For pink salon, target campaigns if you’re budget-sensitive. For delivery health, verify ward-by-ward transport fees; a ¥1,000–¥3,000 difference can offset a longer course. For soapland, treat the admission price as a starting point and ask the staff for the grand total (admission + service) before you commit.
