What's everyone's favourite rld ? Be it in Europe or worldwide ? Favourite, top five or even top ten. From what I've seen, my favourites are the following :

1. Frankfurt (includes both rlds)
2. Antwerp
3. Amsterdam (includes all three as a collective)
4.Bochum
5. Hannover (again, as a whole)
6. Den Haag (especially Doublestraat)
7. Braunschweig
8. Duisburg
9. Mannheim
10. Oberhausen
11. Essen
12. Groningen
13. Leeuwarden
14 Karlsruhe
15. Utrecht (love Hardebollenstraat)

Those are my top fifteen. I don't know enough about Brussels to give it a fair ranking.

Splodge,

You got me beat on the number of different locations, but of those I've visited, my list would be:

1. Antwerp-cleanliness, lighting, variety, and Belgian beer close by pushes it to the top
2. Amsterdam-based on Singel and de Wallen. Never have made it to de Pijp.
3. Duisburg-less stairs than Frankfurt and with each building housing the same demographics, it's easier than searching each building like Frankfurt
4. Frankfurt-the stairs push it lower and I walked in several buildings with 10+ doors per floor and only 2-3 girls working
5. Essen

For upcoming trip, plans are to visit Brussels, Bochum, and Oberhausen in addition to revisiting Antwerp and Duisburg.

Very good list on your part and very jealous also!

Lol. Sorry about that willred . I've been to other rld and Eros centres too. Dortmund, Wiesbaden , Mainz, Brussels , Haarlem , Soho , and perhaps some others I can't think of right now. Your list is good too. I'm going to head to Antwerp very soon and maybe check out a couple of new rlds around Belgium. Ghent and Liege perhaps but more research is required.

For me, I like Frankfurt the best because I love the city, the skyline , the amount of Latina milfs and Gilfs , the food, the beer, the women, the people too. I'm surprised you put Duisburg above it but we all have our preferences.

Your next trip sounds very impressive. Now I'm jealous! Have only been to Bochum & Oberhausen once but I like both and from what I saw I would recommend both, especially Bochum. Oberhausen is smaller but well stocked when I was there on a Sunday night. Kind of reminds me of Alkmaar a bit. Bochum is one of my favourites. Well planned out and lots of sexy women. Something for everyone. Not massive but a great rld. Was good when I was there anyway.

I do not have the breadth of experience to add much to this discussion, but
On a 1 (worst) to 10 (best) scale based solely on my mongering activities in each city:
10 - Antwerp
9 - Amsterdam
7 - Alkmaar (before the recent changes, no idea now)
7 - Den Haag
2 - Hamburg

On somewhat of a side note
I am headed to Frankfurt, for the first time, in 7 weeks. I am very curious to see it for myself given the divergent reports I have read about this RLD.

Splodge,

I have also done the Eros Centers in Wiesbaden and Cologne but wasn't impressed with either so didn't add them to the list.

It seems like-minded people think alike. As you may remember, I like to do a mixture of both clubs and RLD's and this trip was going to follow those parameters also. Set in stone were the following locations:

Landing on Tuesday: Antwerp
Wednesday: this was my one open day
Thursday: Dusseldorf
Friday: Bonn
Saturday: Cologne
Sunday & Monday: Bochum (and surrounding areas like Essen, Duisburg, Oberhaussen, and even try out Hagan)
Fly out Tuesday morning.

I prefer to pay for as much in advance and have already covered all hotel costs, rental car, and flights with the exception of Wednesday. When I first planned the trip, I was going to head north from Antwerp to Utrecht. I've never visited the canal boats and all the conversation about Max and Russian Anna had me intrigued. I have a free hotel room but no suitable hotels in Utrecht so I struck it off the list and studied the map.

My next plan up until last week was head south, spend the day in Liege and Seraing's RLD then the night in Aachen and the RLD there. I kept those reservations for 3 months but decided to have one day without so much driving and switched to Brussels.

A big plus (on top of it being a free night) is the hotel is within walking distance of the RLD and the pubs. I can just park the car and walk everywhere.

Only around 55 days or so to departure.

I'll keep watching this thread for the purposes of gathering additional info regarding rates and ratings, but if anyone wants to make specific corrections or suggestions for the map linked below please feel free. Keep in mind my rating system is simply an estimate of how many desirable (in delivered fact not merely promise) women the typical guy will find.

Very interesting responses. Always nice to hear what other guys think. Had never heard of the Searing rld before. Have just looked it up. Apparently, it's in Liege also. A shrunken rld compared to what it used to be. Research suggests it is in a small cul-de-sac near the Standard Liege stadium. Some reports also suggest it isn't that well stocked, but I've never been. Would love to visit it sometime, and also the main Liege rld, which is also supposed to have shrank in size unfortunately.

Bochum is excellent. Oberhausen is very good too for its size. Hagen is somewhere I'd like to see too, also Aachen . It seems you're going to see a lot more rlds than me, lol. Good on you Will. Look forward to reading your assessments of these places. Bonn being the former capital must surely have a decent rld, or Eros centre orientated rld. I'm extremely jealous now. Have a good one though.

Yes Brad, there are indeed varying reports about Frankfurt. For me, It's by far the best. Milf central but also many younger ees in their early to mid 20s.

Have too little experience in Germany so this is a BE/NL top five only.
Ratings are subjective

1) Antwerpen
2) Den Haag : not what it used to be anymore but for sentimental reasons I give it a high ranking
3) Amsterdam (wallen) : loses points on too much tourists and lower quality of service, but wins on being Amsterdam
4) Utrecht (zandpad): rock the boat!
5) Alkmaar : haven't been there since the closures so this is a guess rating, but I just love Alkmaar

Oh man!!!!!!! I forgot Alkmaar !!! Love the place too, so this is a late entry. I'm slotting Alkmaar in at number 11. A lot of people won't agree but it's a personal decision. Must get back there one day. I'll be quite sad if it has changed dramatically (the rld I mean ). Antwerp seems to be ranking high on many people's lists .

Lol! You make a top-15 list and then even forget some RLD's:) Let me guess what your hobby is hmm...

Anyone knows if the going rate in Alkmaar has raised up?
I could be around in a few days...

thanks

Lol, you've Sussed out my main hobby .

Prices in Alkmaar varied from girl to girl whenever I've been there . One offered 25, younger ones 35 & 40 but most seemed to be around the 30 euro mark. That was a couple of years ago though.

Only you Splodge would start a thread of your fifteen, yes fifteen, favourite RLD's in Europe. LOL!

Still doing excellent work at expanding the boundaries of European mongering. ;)

Lol, I have more rld ratings billybob. I've even forgot a few and probably more but hey, they're are more young bulls out there about to show me how it should be done, and fair play to em. I look forward to those reports. There must be some real hidden gems out there lads?
