Japan in April 2026 (Tokyo for a few days)

[RavenFlock]

Hi all, I would be going Japan in about 1 week+ time for the sakura season. Towards the end of my trip, I would have a few days to myself in Tokyo and I would like to engage some of the boys. I would like to thank the forum when I went to Bangkok back in Feb for information before engaging the boys. I hope to receive good information here too. For context, I enjoy kissing, cuddling, boyfriend like experience as well as boys who are more toned or muscular. As a start, I had begun to email Gym-k and Re:Born for enquiries on boys already. However, there are some queries I hope you all can help me with.

1. I would like to ask if it would be better to stay in a hotel or an airbnb if I would like the boy to come over? Reason being that it would be more convenient and the price doesn’t seem to differ too much and in fact might even be cheaper than using their room (correct me if I am wrong). I think hotel rooms might be a bit smaller than airbnb given the general sizing of Tokyo hotel rooms (usually smaller than 20 sqm) as I don’t want to spend a fortune on a huge room. I am on the lookout for cheap hotels with sizable rooms near the train stations currently. Do let me know if it is better to use the agency's room instead as well. I am thinking of getting perhaps 3 boys across different nights, but might be more, depending on how it goes.2. I can’t speak Japanese so I guess I have to rely on Google translate when I meet the boy. Do we get down to business or how is it like? Do I get to communicate my preferences? 
3. What would be the recommended duration? For example, looking at the website for Re:Born, it is 18000 yen for 130 mins, which seems a bit similar to Bangkok and might even be cheaper considering yen is weak. I know that the Japanese are very particular about time so am I right to say they will fulfill the full duration even after I cum 1st? I think it would be nice to cuddle together for the rest of the remaining time haha. 
4. Any other info or recommendations I should be aware of as I would like to get the bookings sorted out these few days? This is so that I can focus on enjoying my trip while I’m there and not worry about this.

Thank you all in advance~

I had also emailed the above for booking enquiries but was informed that availabilities are only up to 9 days in advance. If I wanted to check for availability further later (which is when I am in Tokyo), I would need to go for an "Overnight Stay Plan".  Would it be wise to pay higher and go for overnight for a first meeting?

Although it is years since i lived in Tokyo, I have returned many times since then. So I'll try and answer your questions. I'm sure others will add some things.

1. Guests in hotel rooms. I have stayed in several dozen hotels in Tokyo and can tell you that only the really very expensive might query a guest - but unlikely. I have never once had any issue taking a young man to my room, and from what I have read from other posts here, other members have found the same. 

2. Room size. This might steer you towards an airbnb. You are correct that Japan hotel prices are partly based on room size. So a decent sized room is going to be reasonably expensive. I have been in cheaper rooms where when kneeling on the bed I stretch out my arms and can touch the two walls! But whereas most of the boys from the agencies will know the hotels, they might need help from you via the mama-san in finding your exact location in an airbnb. If you are not considering overnight, I have looked at the Re:Born site and the boys look much more of the hunk type rather than the skinny cute guys in many other agencies. The in-premises rooms also look really nice. They are only ¥1,000 extra for non-Japanese nationals. One question, though. That site does not have what I consider a usual list of outcall availability and timings. Indeed there seems to be very little information about out-calls apart from a list of what it will cost you from the premises. Overnights seem only to be on the premises when another additional charge becomes payable - ¥2,000. So please double check that before making a booking. A chat with the mamasan is obviously needed in advance.

3. Most of the agencies have websites which use icons to tell you exactly what your preferred companion will and will not do. So check them carefully. If you are looking for a bottom, do not expect a top to fulfil your desires! Likewise some boys do not like to drink alcohol. So please use mouthwash and brush your teeth before he arrives. I always found the boys liked a little conversation before showering and some will speak at least some English. When you make the booking on line, you can ask the mamasan which boys do have some English.

4. In almost al cases, if you book for a start time of 8:00 pm, that is precisely the time he will knock on your door or call up for you if the lift requires a keycard.

5. I am a little surprised that 130 minutes is the minimum time. I have never seen that before. Unsually the timings are now around ¥15,000 for one hour with other options for 90 minutes or 120 minutes. I suggest it depends very much on you and your precise requirements of the boy you choose. Generally speaking, if you have paid for one hour, you will get precisely that. So for 130 minutes, don't expect the boy to up and leave after a shorter time. On the other hand, bear in mind that if you are finished well ahead of 130 minutes and the two of you cannot converse, the extra unused minutes may drag on. Personally I would not go beyond 90 minutes, especially for a first time.

Good luck and have a great time.

Thank you, I ended up booking a hotel for a litte under 100 USD a night at Keisei Richmond Hotel Tokyo Kinishicho. It is not too big though, at 17 sqm.

Regarding point 2, I personally prefer the type of boys at Re:Born haha. Yes, I noticed there is not much information on the overnight out calls, which I am trying to check with the agency via email now because I don't see a point to go their premises for overnight if I have my own hotel room? 

Regarding point 5, at Re:Born site, I can see there are 70 mins (12000 yen) and 100 mins (15000 yen)options but i quoted 130 minutes as an example. I enjoy cuddling together after finishing hence I was thinking of maybe a slightly longer duration might be good. 

My query on overnight came about because the schedule for late April is not released yet for https://www.dojo-group.com/shinjuku/ and upon checking with the agency, they told me they can only check with the boy for the availability if I choose an Overnight Stay Plan (33000 yen). Therefore, I had posed a question of whether I should go for overnight even though it is our first meeting.
