Five Best Brothels (you will note that none from Nevada made it to this list):

(budget/mid-range)

1) Atlantis , near Frankfurt Germany (club-atlantis.de). E60 to get in, E50 per half hour in room, some favors like CIM or anal extra. Very large selection of women, on weekends as many as 120 women working there. Standard uniform for them is high heel shoes. BBBJ is house rule. Wonderful facility featuring Olympic sized heated indoor pool, dry sauna, steam room. Local restaurants will also deliver there. International selection of women from pretty much everywhere on the planet.

At this time, #1 brothel in the world right now, in pretty much every category.

2) Club Riviera, near Barcelona Spain. Russian owned establishment features an international selection as well, but primarily from South American, and increasingly, former Warsaw Pact nations. After 10pm, generally VGL women. Standard rooms suck, suites are pricier, but better quality. Service good all around, but not as reliable as Atlantis. E16 entry, I believe E80 per session, in theory 30 min, but usually longer.

3) Emmanuelle, Bangkok Thailand. The anchor of the Davis Entertainment chain of brothels, about 65 Thai beauties waiting for you. They love you long time-2 hours for about $80. Actually, pretty much all of the Davis shops are worthy.

4) 4x4, Rio de Janiero Brazil. Combination toga party/orgy/strip club atmosphere. Maybe best bang for buck in the world at around $40 a session in a suite with shower in the room. Girls generally ok looking, but if they don't service to at least a TER "9" rating, they're looking for work elsewhere. Service very PSE-like, BBBJ, DFK, Greek pretty much de rigeur.

5) Bernd's Sauna Club, near Cologne Germany. Just your basic mom and pop brothel in a private house in a neighborhood which will remind LA locals of Palos Verdes. About 12-15 girls working M-F, amazingly diverse selection, ok to VG looking (occasionally you will find more than a couple Playboy quality women in there, but they are generally 7 to 7.5). What gets Bernd's on The List is that it's remarkably friendly and social for a brothel. Frequented primarily by execs on the way home, a surprisingly large amount of English is spoken there. Highly recommended. E40/E80.

Honorable mention: Bomboa/Bahamas (Sao Paolo BR); Paradies (Frankfurt DE); K5 Relax (Prague); Club Olimpio (Madrid); Eden Club (Bangkok).

To do list: Club Fortuna, et al, Macau.

High-end (note also that no NV brothel made this list, either)

1) Bailen 22/New Showgirls, Barcelona Spain. Simply the best looking women from Latin America work here. One 10 after another, in a classy gentlemen's club atmosphere. My balls hurt just looking at the lineup. E35 entry, E165 or so for 45 min. Service generally excellent.

2) Babylon, Vienna. Classic upscale brothel with upscale prices. A little overpriced IMO, but some guys dig it. Women are generally Czech and other east bloc nations, but the occasional Thai, the occasional Jamaican, and the occasional vacationing American lass have been known to work there. E400/hr, dinner and basic bar service is included. Easy to spend 2K or more here in an evening. Women are generally 7.5-8.5 and service GFE-style very well.

3) Centaurus, Rio. In theory should be in the first group, as you can get out the door for as little as $110 at current exchange rates. Women are generally Playboy quality, but hard to get anal (analamous for Brazil), and you can run up quite the bar tab, as a lot of locals do.

4) Arena, Tokyo. Whatever you want, however you want it, with an beautiful, intelligent, and sometimes even English speaking J-girl. Condom is optional. Two hours for four figures USD, after tips. Popular with gaijin securities execs.

5) Escape Chain, Houston. At $220 a pop, it would be considered to be lower end by US standards, but by worldwide standards, it's definitely more mid to high end. They offer a large and very nice selection of southern babes, in a clean and friendly environment, and has a great website as well as a well-regarded escort service. It's also less than a 12 hour flight from the states. Just hope John Ashcroft isn't reading this...

Honorable Mention: Club W (Sao Paolo); Angelus (Caracas)

Overrated: Yab Yum (Amsterdam) Milady Palace (Marbella Spain)

exquisite taste of ladies.

I think the Escape Chain in Houston has very good local connections.  At least half of TER's Houston reviews are on ladies of EscapeInHouston.

Admitedly, it's beem almost 20 years since I was there but assuming things are substantially the same. You can get the LBFM of your choice for an all nighter for next to nothing. I am aslo told that if you play your cards right, you CAN get it for nothing.

Again, I haven't been there in quite a long time. Has anyone been there since the US Navy and US Air Force pulled out of the PI?

I realize that it ranks on your overrated list but I had a blast.  It was not cheap, however.  

I paid the equivalent of about $400 USD for about 90 minutes in a jacuzzi suite with a beautiful Polish girl that looked like she just stepped off the pages of Playboy.  "Renata" was her name and she spoke English well enough, was 23 years old, 5'7" 130 pounds.  I don't remember too many providers I have seen but I remember her, 3.5 years after the fact.

Another funny thing I remember on that particular night.  Some fucked up guy that looked like a young George "The Animal" Steele, of vintage WWF fame, kept walking around the club and asking the girls, and ever so eloquently, "Do you wanna fuck???".
This poor bastard couldn't get laid in a whorehouse!!!

Although Milady Palace is a little over the top, it is an experience.  It is literally neighbors with the King of Saudi Arabia's palace in Marbella.  Renata, the girl I was with, claims to have been with a couple celebrities there, including a very bigtime musician that used to date J Lo.  He supposedly had about five girls for himself and was generous enough to buy each of his homies a single girl for themselves!!!

I will definitely keep this list handy for some future Zorro world tours.  Thanks!

...for three months every other word out of his mouth was "Altenstadt". I anticipate a return to active duty for him soon, since he was asking about an up and coming name here on the LA board.

And yes, I concur, he knows how to pick'em. Better taste than moi. His fave is someone who would be mine, if I could afford her $700/hr rate. I actually think I would pay it if I could, even though the value really isn't there for me.

For "caharmon": All these places are more or less brothels, if you can't bang them on site, they don't qualify for The List. I made an exception for Club W because the women there are all off the chart. With the exception of Arena, I've sampled all of these places personally.

..that's why I mentioned it. The rooms are nice, but like Club Rejecta, whoops! I meant Selecta in Torrequebrada, the talent is not quite up to snuff. Nobody pays those kind of prices in Marbella, unless you're a sheikh.

Next time in Costa del Sol, try the classifieds or Estark 92 in Fuengirola. Rooms aren't as nice, but the talent is better at a fraction of the cost of Milady.

Club Elégance, Amsterdam

Nicolaus Witsenkade 38, tel: 020-627-9788
"The building itself dates from 1840, and appropriately enough, it was built to house the mistress of some rich burgher of days long past. Although it cannot be possible, many of the interior furnishings would seem to date from that period also, although we are uncertain as to the origin of the brass strip-tease pole, which graces the small platform in the lounge which plays host to the nightly gyrations of some young lovely. Perhaps it's Louis XIV?"

Prices are 75Euro at the door, 5 drinks are included. 350Euro/hr for any of the women on duty during your visit (not obligatory, you may leave at any time). They do run the 450Euro a bottle Champaigne scam and you can ring up a significant bar bill. The women make just about 25% on the scam and so an offer of 150 to 200 Euro Tip worked for me. Remember, the Dutch don't tip.

The only two I could possibly tolerate going to would be Sagebrush and Moonlight (forgive me, THE Bunnyranch!, they hate it when you refer to it under it's old name) near Carson City. Lotsa bad attitudes at Moonlight too.

There is no Place like "Altanstadt". Where woman are goregous and you can get off 4-5 times in 3 to 4 hours with around $$$$. It like going to car show and you get to drive the Ferrari, Porsche, and everything else. It is unbelievable!!! I had 3 girls at the same time, 4 girls at the same time, 2 by 1, one by one, you name it. I will never forget it. 3 days and all and I shot about 15-16 times.
