Offerings & Ambiance
Club 51 is listed in local reporting as a contact bar – that is, a bar with adjoining rooms. On its former website, the establishment described itself as a studio with over 240 square meters of space and mentioned a whirlpool as part of its facilities. According to a 2022 report by zentralplus, up to six women offer their services per day at Baselstrasse 51; the establishment maintained a daily rotating schedule for this. In the same year, the operator submitted a building permit request to be allowed to serve beverages in the future, as cantonal requirements for food and beverage establishments must be met for this. Whether the permit for beverage service has since been approved cannot be verified.
Opening Hours
The establishment last published the following hours: Sunday to Thursday 22:00–04:00, Friday and Saturday 22:00–06:00. Industry directories listed significantly earlier opening times in the afternoon, while an older version of the website stated 21:00–02:00. The information is therefore contradictory.
An important note: Since early 2025, the domain club51.ch has been fully redirecting to an external website not belonging to the establishment. The last retrievable version of its own website is from December 2024. As of November 2026, opening hours can therefore no longer be verified via the website – please inquire by phone before visiting. There are no reports of closure.
Access & Parking
Baselstrasse runs from Kasernenplatz in the direction of Kreuzstutz and further to Emmenbrücke. By public transport, Kasernenplatz is the nearest hub: vbl lines 2, 5, 9, and 12 run on the Pilatusplatz–Kasernenplatz section, and lines 2 and 5 on the Kasernenplatz–Kreuzstutz axis. The district is reachable in a few minutes from Lucerne train station by bus or on foot.
By car, access is via the A2, exit Lucerne-Zentrum, and from there toward Kasernenplatz. The establishment has no dedicated parking spaces; the district is mostly in the blue zone, with alternatives being the public parking garages in the city center.

Responsibility for licensing and enforcement lies with the Lucerne Police’s trade police. An overview of establishments in the canton can be found in our directory: Brothels, Clubs & Studios in Lucerne: Overview Canton LU.
