European travel tips sought - Berlin, Prague, Bratislava, Vienna, Budapest.

Hi guys,

During August/September this year I'll be traveling through the above mentioned cities.

Any tips or ideas from the members on where I should go for some debauched fun. Clubs, sex clubs, gogo bars, saunas, massage joint etc.

Thanks in advance.

SA.

I'm also very interested in Vienna as I plan to go there - it seems that Alfie's Goldener Spiegel with bar, restaurant and rooms to take the working boys has reopened after renovations but I can find any reviews that mention the old set up and the boys. Also, where would one find simple working boys these days and where best to stay in the area.

These reports may be useful.

You have piqued my interest with your comments on Vienna - it sounds like Harald's infamous boy brothel in Hamburg has been reincarnated (which is more than can be said for dear old Harald, RIP)!

However, in my own experience I'd say your best bet out of those mentioned is Berlin:

The Blue Boy Bar (exclusively rentboys and clients) has moved along the road a bit (you'll find the new address online), and the bonus is that I hear the new owners of the old Blue Boy premises are also running that as a rent bar.

So by my reckoning that 5 rent bars within a 100m radius! If you can find that "coverage" anywhere else in Europe I'd like to know about it.

Going rate will be about 50-80 Euro

Berlin: Rent bar locations mentioned in previous reports. Boys move between the bars. Beware of anyone who never sets foot in any of the bars, it's quite possible they have been banned from the bars and are likely to be trouble if offed. Been there, done that, resolved the problem with the use of force. Overall the selection is on the rough side and I am more inclined to look up a Thai masseur or European boy on Planet Romeo. Although I would still visit the bars, just in case.

Prague: You can find the rent bars on line. I prefer Pinnochio for twinks. The PlanetRomeo escort section is also well supported here.

Bratislava: I saw no action at all here. Almost empty gay bars. A quiet sauna on the edge of town, where by far the cutest customer was the guy mopping the floor in shorts & T-shirt. That was perhaps about 5~6 years ago.

Goji - although I too still think of that bar as "Pinnochio" (and the good old days in there), the reality is that it hasn't been called that for maybe 10 years!

It is, of course, Club Temple.

Escape is still Escape and the last time I was there Villa Mansland was still going although Harry had died.

Hell, my memory is going at a young age. It's been Club Temple on my last 3~4 visits, so yes, you are right.

Yeah, Pinnochio is named Temple many years already after new owner. Escape still exists but also many years under new management since E. - creator and first owner - is living in Cambodia many years, he has profile at Romeo, so people who know him can easy find it.

Escape certainly still is Escape... But Harry is alive and well. I had an email from him just a couple of days ago.

This is great stuff guys. Thanks. And keep the tips and ideas coming.
