Dance Shows and Strip Clubs in Jakarta

By Tibs
Important Notice: Since November 2017, all nude dancing has temporarily ceased in Jakarta. Therefore, in all the venues listed below, there will be sexy dancers, but they will be wearing lingerie.

Yes, even in self-righteous Indonesia you will find more strip clubs and sexy dancers than in most other Asian countries. Sure Bangkok has its fair share of gogo bars, but women there rarely go full nude in public. In Jakarta, you have dozens of places with daily naked shows for a male public, obviously, to enjoy.

Remember that you are in Jakarta, not in Hollywood. Don't expect a spectacular striptease show with pole dancing, synchronized choreographies, and splits, it is usually pretty basic. In all those places, the dancers usually try to get customers to buy them ladies' drinks after they've finished their routine. The price for a drink is between 50k and 100k. If you buy one, you will just get a thank you. If you buy at least 3, you will get a short lap dance. If you buy more than 3, you won't get much more. 

The huge majority of those venues are located in North and West Jakarta in the following districts: Kelapa Gading, Taman Anggrek, Taman Sari, Hayam Wuruk, Gadjah Mada, Mangga Besar, Lokasari. If you stay in Sudirman area, the closest ones will be about 5 kilometers away. Without traffic in the evening, it's a 15 minutes ride. 



1) Tease Club (Full Nude)
Managed by Alex Tirta from Alexis Group. It may be the most sophisticated strip club to date in Jakarta in terms of costumes and choreography. They used to have a live sex show but it was probably too risky. Even corruption has its limits in Indonesia.

Recommended hotels nearby: Red Top and Alila Pecenongan are both within walking distance from Tease Club and Emporium Spa.

2) Malioboro (Full Nude)
Managed by the biggest competitor of Alex Tirta in the naughty nightlife scene, the Stadium group. There are dancers in two areas, the Malio Club with about 8 to 10 girls dancing non-stop, and the Malio Spa which is less busy.

Grand Mercure Kota is a 4-star hotel located just across Malioboro. You also have a nearby 3-star hotel, All Seasons Gajah Mada.

3) King Cross (Full Nude)
Managed by Stadium Group as well. Sexy dancers on two floors. The best ones are on the top floors. It is best to arrive early to avoid the crowd (like 10pm).

The closest hotel is the Santika Kelapa Gading (3 minutes by taxi).

4) Classic Hotel (Full Nude)
3 floors have dancers in Classic Hotel: On the ground floor, you have the best dancers but there is an entrance fee and the drinks are more expensive. On the 2nd floor and 5th floor, you have a basic dance show in two huge rooms (they are also called Terminal 2 and Terminal 5 as you are given a boarding pass upon exit). You should be aware that Classic is more a bordello than a bar.

Red Top and Alila Pecenongan are both 3 minutes away by taxi. Since August 2016, you can also book a night in Classic Hotel on Agoda.

5) Club 36 (Full Nude for Indonesian girls, Bikini for Thai Girls)
Wait another hour and you will have the dancers instead of the band
Club 36 is owned by Alex Tirta as well and it is located just next to Jayakarta Hotel. Intimate and usually crowded, you always have about 10 girls dancing on the main bar. It is the only place in Jakarta with Thai dancers.

Club 36 is located next to the Jayakarta Hotel. It is also near from the brand new Santika in Hayam Wuruk.

6) D's Place in Blok M (Bikini in Main Room, Full Nude in private)
D's Place is one of the oldest bars of Blok M. You have a main room with a podium in the middle where girls will do sexy dances in bikini. Those girls are usually quite young and pretty. You also have a more private room, the "corner bar", where you can get a private lap dance from older girls. You can actually get more than a lap dance: D's place could be considered as the only blowjob bar in Jakarta.

Jalan Falatehan, where D's Place is located, is close from Falatehan Hotel.

7) V2 (Full Nude) CLOSED
V2 is a small one stop entertainment complex located at the beginning of Gadjah Madah street. If you come from Sudirman, it is quite easy to find. Nothing really special compared to the places mentioned above. They have live music and topless DJ from Eastern Europe once in a while.

It is closest from Ibis Harmoni and Grand Mercure Kota.

8) Golden Crown (Topless)
Inside Golden Crown, you have a lounge with western music with sexy dancers during the week. You have a real hotel below the club that you can book here: Plaza Hotel Glodok.

9) Diamond (Full Nude) CLOSED
Diamond Club is a discreet venue located just between Harco Glodok and Lindeteves LTC Mall. Dancers go full nude.

Novotel Gajah Mada is located just accross from Diamond.

10) Sumo Spa (Full Nude or Topless, I'm not sure)
Sumo Spa in Kelapa Gading is also owned by the Stadium Group. They have a small lounge with dancers. It is located next to King Cross.

In case you need more addresses:

List of venues with non-nude sexy dancers:

Play Club in Hotel Alexis CLOSED

Dreams Club in Plaza Indonesia CLOSED: I didn't review it yet so I'll be interested to get more information. Apparently they have dancers/models from Eastern Europe.

108 Club (ex-Illigals) in Hayam Wuruk: They have regular events but no nude or topless dancing to my knowledge.

Flirt Bar in Fashion Hotel: Daily - They've had topless dancing on occasion and some Russian TDJ (Topless DJ)

Nebula: CLOSED

Sun City: Daily, during break time of the live band:

Other places with sexy dancers that didn't make the Top 10:
Comfort Spa in Mangga Dua
Galaxy Spa in Fatmawati (Owned by Delta Spa)
CDs Club by Delta Spa
M Star in Mangga Dua CLOSED
Top 1 Taman Anggrek
Newton in Lokasari
Fortune Spa in Sudirman
MTR in Kelapa Gading
Golden Hands Spa in Pluit

For the following places, I'm not sure if there are dancers or not, but it would not be surprising if they do:
Zen Karaoke in Thamrin
De Leila in Gatot Subroto
New Medika in Daan Mogot
Bandara in Taman Anggrek

I've probably forgotten a few places, please comment on this list of the best Strip Club and Sexy Dancer Show in Jakarta to help me keep it updated and accurate. Thanks!
Update May 2015: B'Fashion Hotel's club Oppai should be on top of this list: Oppai Club.

    It's amusing that all those strip clubs except for D's place in Blok M cater to the local crowd. You will barely see any foreigners if you visit one of the venues listed above.

    Yet, if you read, listen or watch Indonesian medias, they will tell you it is the foreigners and the expats who are perverting the nation...

  3. In D's Place the sexy dancers are also happy to go with you to the VIP-room to give you a lapdance, a blowjob or services extending further. A quick mental roll-call comes up with 5 names of dancers I had in the back room. They also make house calls.

  9. Ok. As a foriegner I've been to most of these places and here is the verdict. Malio and Alexis are the only places worth going to. They have the most beautiful species of girls and best music. Expensive yes, but you get what you pay for in life.

  10. I went to Club 36 and it was a bit of a disappointment. 100,000 rupiah cover charge, redeemable for a beer. After that it was 120,000 per small Corona while watching rich Chinese guys ordering bottles of cognac. Yes there were 10 girls on the bar when I walked in, shuffling around like zombies. They progressively stripped off under instructions from the floor manager and some of them were quite good looking but nothing sensational. After moving around on the spot for about 10 minutes they were marched off the bar so that an indifferent rock band could take over and play poor quality "music" at catastrophically insane volume. The place also had a few seriously ugly looking bouncers who stood in front of the bar just staring at the customers - completely unnecessary and a further disincentive to staying there.

    A couple of nights earlier I had been to the Golden Crown - again very expensive for drinks and in between the very average live band (the male lead singer could barely hold a note) girls in mesh tops would dance around for a while out the front and then wander through the audience offering to flash their boobs for an extra 100,000 rupiah. I didn't see a single guy take them up on that offer. There were some moderately attractive women floating around but they said they were employees of the club and if they sat down it would cost serious money to buy them a drink. The whole thing was mildly depressing and so I went to Illigals and that had no dancers at all. It was a Saturday night and was only half full of not very friendly locals; expensive drinks and once again a couple of DJs who were alright but couldn't really get the crowd moving.

    On both nights I would have been better off staying in my hotel room drinking duty free cognac and watching internet porn, to be honest. Not like how Jakarta used to be.

She will bring the girls to you one by one, don't be afraid to say now. We got a girl for 1.5yt and brought her back to our place, her looks were mediocre but was the experience was very fun

  41. Just been several places on last Friday night, Nov 30. I am a local and went alone.

    First, I went to the Classic Hotel around 10pm.
    I went to Terminal 2 - 2nd floor (40IDR for the entry). There is only sexy dancers.
    Then went to Terminal 5 - 5th floor (same price). No topless/nude dancers. I asked to the GRO and she said there is no topless/nude dancers again (dunno until when ...).
    I prefer the Terminal 5. Less people. The ladies are prettier than the Terminal 2(my personal opinion). If you want to have a "good time" with one girl - 360k, two girls - 550k.

    Around 12am, I went to the Malio to prove the information that said the place is still open. And it's true, 100% correct. The regular parking ask 20k, but then he said he is okay to receive only 10k. At the end, I decide to give him 15k + one pack of cigarettes that I got from the Malio. The entry fee - 150IDR (don't get any drink). The dancer wears the see-through lingerie + pant. The ladies drink cost 50k + 15k (30% tax). The ladies is really pretty. I went to the second floor. Just a few minutes the lady approaches me and asked to buy her a ladies drink. Then one of her friend also come to join. If you agree, then they will bring you to the room/the sofa. Be smart with their play, because they really sly. If you buy three drinks, then you can freely touch their boobs. They sat on my lap, kissed my lips, touched my dick, so aggressive to empty your pocket. Just be bold (not rude) if you don't want to buy the drinks again. At the end it costs me 15 drinks. For me, it was fair enough. The sexy dancer ladies only provide BJ for 1600k. After the session with me over, they start hunt the next prey, esp. the expats.

    At 1am, I went to the Golden Crown at Glodok Plaza. The entry cost 140IDR. Sadly, the discotheque is still closed, although the lounge is open. Quite entertained because of the KPOP songs being play and today there is a big LED screen surrounding the room (I didn't see this the last time I went there on 2010, 8 years ago). And again there is a lady approaches me and asked me to buy her a drug. I said NO. I just agreed to buy her a drink.

    CONCLUSION:
    Malio is still the best if you looking for a pretty decent lady.
    Just prepare your money and play smart.
    The crowd is not as much as the Malio that I knew before, around 2016.
    Miss the old ones ...

    Anyway, thanks Thibaud for making this site and all brothers who gave the comments.
    Enjoy Jakarta! Have a lot of fun when "you are still YOUNG!" Auuuuu....

  44. Warning to Avoid Classic Hotel! It's a rip off! I don't know if it was just one girl thinking she could take advantage of me, or the normal way they run things there. First, girls were literally just begging for money.. In exchange for nothing. I agreed to buy a girl one shot, and they suddenly brought and charged me for 3. Then I paid to take a girl to a room and soon as we got inside she just sat there like a statue, and refused to do anything. This alone was a real buzz kill, but eventually she said she wanted extra money. I have no problem with tipping, but I already paid the upfront cost. I was so turned off at this point I just returned to the club to see if I could talk to to mamasan and change the girl. But all of the staff which were so attentive when I first arrived now completely ignored me. I ended up spending around 600k inside and pretty much all I got was one drink! Total scam! Jakarta has really gone down the drain from its prior reputation.

    I also checked out Malio which seemed world class and professonally run, but incredibly expensive. Ds Place was super sleazy, but you get what you pay for in the back room pretty easily, and the prices are transparent. And yeah, no places have nude dancers now in mid-2019. The most you get is see thru lingerie.

    1. i was kind of 'executioner'. i prefer travel hotel to pick a girl. they had similar price as classic. 350k for one hour one girl and (i dont really remember) 500k for one half hour two girls. all include room and no additional fee. of course the girls want the tip, but thats optional. i heard they increase the price now, but its still very very cheap for me. and all the girls and the manager is very friendly as long as you can speak indonesian. just ask the girl manager to pick the girl or pick by yourself. you can ask the girl to dance for you in the room, if she cant you can cancel the girl and pick another girl. you can drink with her on there before go upstair to the room, because if you go to the room and pay the girl, the timer start to counting. dont forget to ask the room with iron grip on the top, they usually use that room as massage room. since they basic job is prostitute, usually you must pay extra to make they dance for you. around 100k-250k tip will work. and they can finish you off as well. worked for me.

  51. There are no more nude dancers in Jakarta. That ended a long time ago. Slowly but surely the fundamentalists are winning the culture war. Anies will continue to appease the hard liners as he wants to be president. The tragedy is that people believe that this will stop with the clubs, it won't, everyday life will be affected by the hard liners until we have total sharia throughout the country.

    2. Until D's Place bankruptcy there was still nude dancing, but only in the VIP room. The girls also provided additional services, such as lap dance, blowjob and full service. I guess there were other bars with comparable facilities. In Top Gun various girls were happy to give you a blowjob in the toilet area.

  55. I went to Medika and it was a bit of a disappointment cus hen and chicks were all over the places. Too local if you are a foriegner , I think this place is for purely locals, thousands and hundreds of Gojeck riders and Grab bike riders, and to go in with any of the girls will cost you between 370,000 to 450,000 rupiah.
    A couple of nights earlier I had been to the Classic hotel far away from each other , a bottle of Guiness Beer was around IDR 126,000 very expensive for ordinary beer. A
    girl costs around 365,000 and if you need 2, it costs 550,000, this amount in dollar is between 30 to 35 dollars , Spending much time there will definitely cost serious money cus its expensive .
    nevertheless not for bad chinese ppl who make things terribly bad for other countries economy 😂😂 #kidding
