Big money trap for tourists. Now let me explain in more details comparing with other similar clubs like "Goldfingers" (GF) and Hotpeppers (HP), which are located in same Vaclav square. So entry fee is 300 czk and wardrobe is 50 czk (in GF and HP it's free). Sparkling water in Darling costs 290 czk (in HP and GF it's twice cheaper, plus in GF you get popcorn). In the menu you can see that shortest duration private dance costs 1000 czk, which is cheap at first side. But don't get excited. I have asked 3 girls for private dance and they say that at least it will cost 1500 czk for topless and 2000 czk for full nude (in GF it's 1500 czk for full nude, in HP 1000 czk without touching and 1500 czk with touching full nude). But the worst yet to come. When you go to private rooms administrator asks you to sign some paper, that you will not do any sexual misbehave and asks you to buy a drink for lady which costs about 500 czk (no such thing in GF and HP). Darling administration, client buys drink for girl when want to chat with girl sitting around the table, but client does not need to buy a drink for private dance which is already much expensive. When lap dance time finish, lights and music turn off in private room and it's getting totally dark (no such thing in GF and HP). But this is not the end. Be aware of some girls like blue eye, blond hair girl Valeria in white police uniform. I asked her for private dance. Inside private room she asked me to sit in uncomfortable way (head back, pelvis in front), and she didn't wait for lights and music to turn off, she finished lap dance before that. And this is in case where I paid her 200 czk tip in cash before dancing. Fortunately, with two other girls private dances there was no such issues. Summary. Darling is a big trap for tourists. If you want to enjoy lap dance without much overpaying, go...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI've been to Darling a couple times and it was always an amazing experience. I'll definitely recommend everyone to visit it.
Therefore I was very surprised to see many negative reviews here. The only way I can explain it to myself is that all these people didn't really 'get' Darling or what it has to offer which is sad honestly. All I can say is that if you come with an attitude that doesn't allow you to have a good time then you have yourself to blame.
Regarding the club, it's very good. I like the environments and the main stage. There's 2 floors, you can decide to sit somewhere more quiet. But the best part are the girls, they are superbe, varied and their often professional dances are breathtaking. Every girl has their own style and music selection.
And you can get private dances with the girls you like, they are a little more expensive than what you'd expect BUT it's absolutely worth it, it's a unique experience unlike anything I've had anywhere else. However just talking to the girls is enjoyable there in itself. I'd even recommend doing so before a dance and if the girl likes you you'll without doubt enjoy your time even more. At the end of the day it's not just about the money.
Just dances is also not all that Darling has to offer, so a guest with even the most sophisticated interests will find himself satisfied. But you don't have to choose any of the variety Darling provides. For just the entry fee of around 10⬠you'll have the opportunity to be there the whole night and see the the girl's amazing stripping performances (full nude, no cheating!). You'll just not experience the best Darling has to...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWhatever you do, don't buy a bottle unless you can drink it all in one night, or possibly two if you find a barmaid willing to store it for you. I was planning to spend a good part of my week in Prague in this club, so I invested in a whiskey bottle after one of the girls suggested it saying I could keep it behind the bar to enjoy each time I returned. It turned out that for some reason they really don't like doing this, so by the third time I came back they had served the majority of my bottle to other customers, and gave me attitude the moment I arrived. I wound up leaving rather than sticking around in a place that had become pretty unwelcoming.
Really, if this is their policy, they should never agree to sell a bottle to a solo customer. I don't see any situation where that could turn out well for anyone. Either the customer dies of alcohol poisoning trying to get their money's worth, or they get ripped off being unable to drink enough to justify the cost. Either way that's a lost customer.
It was a pity, because aside from the bar service flipping out about that bottle I had a pretty good time. I would have thought they would be happy to give me that extra reason to keep coming back (I was spending quite a bit of money buying drinks for the girls), but apparently they see it as a threat to their profits to let someone drink their entire bottle in the club, so instead they treated me in a way that guaranteed I won't return. A bottle costs 3500 crowns for 1L, by the way. Probably a decent choice when you've got some buddies to help...
