What Kannai is

Naka Ward, central Yokohama. The streets do not share one walk.

Kannai is in Naka Ward, central Yokohama. It is not one soapland street at the station exit. Licensed soaplands are spread through Fukutomi-cho and Akebono-cho, about a kilometre apart. Soapland means you go to the shop. Outcall (delivery health) means staff come to your hotel. The listing says which. A neon sign is not a shop list.

Ukiyo Nights lists a shop here only if it has filed the required adult-entertainment notification and follows the law. We show one total price on each listing. Street touts can be ignored; a registered shop does not need a catcher.

JR Kannai, on the Negishi Line, and Kannai on the municipal subway Blue Line are the same station area. From there, allow about 5–15 minutes on foot. The south end is the longer walk. Hinodecho, on the Keikyu Line, is closer to the Fukutomi side, about 3–10 minutes. Isezaki-chojamachi, one Blue Line stop south of Kannai, is closer to the middle and south, about 5–10 minutes on foot into the streets. Noge, next door, is a bar street. It is not the address on a listing.

How a first visit works

Four steps. The shop handles the booking — not this site.

  1. Night street in Yokohama
    1

    Read the format first

    The card says soapland or outcall, plus the total, languages and payment. If a shop is on this page, it has filed the required notification. Empty listings mean we have not published a shop yet.

    Contact the shop yourself

    LINE, phone or the details on the listing. Ukiyo Nights does not make the reservation. The Contact Kit on a venue page can draft a Japanese message for you to send.

    Go where the listing says

    For soapland, go to the shop. For outcall, be at the hotel you agreed. From Kannai Station, walk about 5–15 minutes. Hinodecho is about 3–10 minutes, closer to Fukutomi-cho. Isezaki-chojamachi is about 5–10 minutes into the streets. Show the driver the address on the listing. Fukutomi-cho and Akebono-cho are not the same block.

    Confirm the total, then start

    Pay the agreed amount. Do not haggle. A hotel’s own room charge is separate from the shop’s total. Ask anything unclear before you continue. Tattoos, language and ID rules are the shop’s to set.

Getting there

Kannai, Naka Ward. Schematic — not a street map.

JR · Blue Line

Kannai

Negishi Line and the municipal subway, in the same station area. About 5–15 minutes on foot. The south end is the longer walk.

Keikyu

Hinodecho

Closer to the Fukutomi side. About 3–10 minutes on foot. Use this station when the listing is on that side.

Blue Line

Isezaki-chojamachi

One stop south of Kannai, closer to the middle and south. About 5–10 minutes on foot into the streets. The ride between the stations is not the walk to the shop.

Taxi

Listing address

Taxis run after the last train. Show the driver the address on the listing. Fukutomi-cho and Akebono-cho are different blocks. The ride depends on where you start.

Price and payment

The listing total is the figure to confirm — not a bid.

Kannai courses are priced by the shop, the format and the length. Ukiyo Nights will show one total on each card when a shop is listed. Confirm that number before you set a time. For outcall, the hotel’s own charge is separate. Optional extras must be agreed in advance.

Cash is common. Cards and e-money depend on the shop. Do not haggle. Tips are not required.

Before you go

Shop rules decide the rest. Ask if it matters.

Language

Some shops can handle English, Korean or Chinese. Many cannot. Use the languages line on the listing, then confirm.

Tattoos

Some shops refuse visible tattoos. Covering them is the cautious default. Ask before you travel.

ID

A shop may ask to see identification. Bring your passport. Age 18+ only.

Touts

Ignore street catchers. A registered shop does not need one. Use the address and the format on the listing.

Frequently asked questions

Kannai-specific. The general visitor guide is separate.

Can foreigners visit venues in Kannai?▾
Adults 18+ including foreign visitors may use venues that have filed the required notification and that accept them. Acceptance, languages and ID checks vary by shop — confirm with the venue before you go. Ukiyo Nights lists only registered shops.
How do I get to Kannai?▾
Kannai is in Naka Ward, central Yokohama. JR Kannai and the Blue Line Kannai station are the same area. Allow about 5–15 minutes on foot, longer toward the south end.
