Offerings & Atmosphere
The establishment combines a sauna area with a bar, a smoking room, and a terrace; the rest of the area is non-smoking. According to the website, consumption is not paid in cash but is recorded via the key to your personal locker and settled at the end. The dress code consists of a towel, which is provided upon entry – you are nude underneath. The club provides condoms free of charge, explicitly for use on site.
In addition to guests, several independent women are present who offer their services independently and arrange directly with guests. Entry is restricted to adults aged 18 and over, an ID may be requested, and the club reserves the right to refuse entry to individuals.

Getting There & Parking
The Galerie St-François is a shopping passage directly at Place Saint-François, the central square of Lausanne’s city center. By public transport, this is the easiest route: Saint-François is one of the major bus hubs of TL, and Lausanne-Flon metro station (m1/m2) is just a few minutes’ walk away. From Lausanne CFF train station, you can reach Flon with the m2 in a short ride.
By car, the city center is tight and largely traffic-calmed. The nearest parking garage is Parking Saint-François at Rue du Grand-Chêne 10, reportedly open around the clock. From the A9/A1 highway direction, city exits lead toward the center; if you’re unfamiliar with the area, it’s better to head to a parking garage and walk the last few meters on foot.
