Police keep a record of 53 sexy clubs, four strip bars and 13 gay clubs. There are larger companies with dozens of employees in the centre, which are visited mainly by foreign clients. Smaller clubs, which Czechs rather attend, are in marginal districts. In Prague alone, there are 48 erotic establishments. New trends in recent years are tantra salons offering special erotic massages and other services at extra cost.
In addition to clubs, there are hundreds of private facilities in the capital city. The Association for Pleasure Without Risk, which focuses on health prevention, counselling and therapeutic services for people providing sexual services, has a database of about contacts to private facilities but visits only about five of them.
In private facilities, fewer women are working than in clubs, just one or two. But there are also private facilities similar to several apartments in the house, or they are on multiple floors, and the environment is more like a smaller club.
Private establishments are not marked from the outside but are in common areas, so they are hard for police and social workers to find. Unlike other years in Prague, the number of women who prostitute themselves on the street is reduced.
The amount of prostitutes on the streets also depends on meteorological conditions or tourism. Street prostitutes have taken to the other part of the city, especially the Charles Square, where they offer themselves, for example, around the New Town Hall or at the Church of St Ignatius. In Prague, about a hundred women are working on the street.
