Gay Massage, Urisen & Escort Shops in Japan You Can Book in English

Booking in English is not a single thing, which is why the table below splits it. Some shops run an English site or reservation page: you pick a course and a time, submit it, and keep a written confirmation. Others keep a Japanese site and handle English through their contact route, which means a message thread and a reply cycle before anything is settled. The column headed How you book in English tells you which you are dealing with, shop by shop.

What that field records is the booking route we could verify, not fluency. An English form is a promise about the form. The person who greets you at the door, or the therapist who works on you, may speak very little English, and the shops rarely claim otherwise. Treat an English booking page as insurance against getting the date, the course and the price wrong, and plan the rest of the evening with a translation app open.

A trap worth naming: several of these shops belong to national chains, and a chain's English site is sometimes written for a single branch — usually the Tokyo branch. Booking the branch you actually want through it can quietly fail. Every shop page on this site records which page we read and when, under Official site read on, so check that line before assuming the English route covers the city you are in.

The figures above this table are recalculated from our own records each time the page is built, so they move when the data moves. Shops missing from this list are shops we could not verify an English route for — a statement about what we could confirm, not about who is welcome.
