Thinking of visiting a Hostess Club in Akihabara? Whether you’re curious about the nightlife or want a high-end entertainment experience, it’s important to understand the costs.

1. System Fees & Time-Based Pricing

Most Hostess Clubs in Japan use a time-based pricing system, also called a "set". This covers your seat, basic drinks, and time with the hostesses.

Typical Session Pricing:

  • 40 to 60 minutes: 5,000–10,000 yen

  • Extended time: 5,000–10,000 yen per session

If you plan to stay longer, factor in session extensions which can add up quickly.


2. Hostess Nomination & Drink Orders

Want to chat with a specific hostess? You can nominate her to stay at your table, or buy her a drink to enjoy more personal time.

Nomination Fees:

  • Standard Nomination: 1,000–5,000 yen

  • Specific Nomination (by name): 1,000–5,000 yen

Hostess Drinks:

  • Buying a drink for a hostess: 1,000–5,000 yen per glass

These options help build a rapport with your favorite hostess and encourage her to stay longer.


3. Drinks & Champagne Menu

The system fee usually includes basic beverages such as:

  • Whiskey, Shochu, Water, and Soda

However, for a more premium experience, you can order luxury drinks.

Premium Drink Prices:

  • Cocktails & high-end drinks: 1,000–10,000 yen

  • Champagne & premium bottles: 10,000–500,000 yen and up

  • Bottle keep system: 10,000–100,000 yen and up (store your bottle for future visits)

If you order a high-priced bottle, you may get special performances (lighting, dancing, VIP support).


4. VIP Seating & Special Event Options

Want a more exclusive night out? Hostess Clubs also offer VIP experiences, such as:

  • Private rooms: 10,000–50,000 yen

  • Limited-time or seasonal drinks: 3,000–10,000 yen and up

Total Cost: What to Expect Overall

A night at a Hostess Club in Akihabara can vary widely depending on your choices. If you're just trying it out for an hour with basic drinks, expect to spend around 10,000 to 15,000 yen. If you add hostess nominations, order a few drinks, or extend your stay, your bill may rise to 20,000 to 50,000 yen. For premium bottles, VIP seating, or a special event night, it’s not unusual to go over 100,000 yen.

Final cost depends on:

  • How long you stay

  • What you drink (standard vs. premium)

  • Hostess interactions

  • Private/VIP room usage

Ultimately, how much you spend is up to you—but knowing the system in advance lets you relax and enjoy the experience without surprises.
