via Stay22About this place Duplexx
Duplexx is a gay shop in Berlin, a few blocks from the ArtHotel Connection, that combines retail with adult entertainment and social space. It's the kind of multi-use spot you find all over Berlin’s gay scene.
You can browse, sure, but it's really a place to relax, or connect with other guys. The whole vibe is a laid-back cruising environment.
They have themed nights all week. Mondays are movie nights, for a more low-key evening. On Friday and Saturday, Beck's beers are €1, making it a cheap place to hang out. The casual vibe makes it easy to spend time here, whether you're new to the city or a regular.
Duplexx has other locations too: another in Berlin's Prenzlauer Berg, plus Munich, Stuttgart, and Dresden. So it's a known name in Germany's gay scene. The main shop is on Martin-Luther-Straße, easy to find in the heart of the city's LGBTQ+ community.

Duplex Xx €16.00 entry including locker. You only receive a numbered chip; the attendant locks with a shared key! No security. I disagreed and wanted my money back. It was refused. Beware, this is a nasty scam! Stay away! I will file a police report and pursue a refund through a lawyer.
Colder than a refrigerator. It's winter, prices go up right on the 1st, but there's no heating :(, you feel ripped off. People are walking around here with hardly any clothes on... But obviously the owners are skimping on the heating...
Why are the reviews always so negative? You can check ticket prices online beforehand, and you can even book a ticket in advance. On-site, you can pay in cash (insert money into a kind of ATM) or by credit card. If the drinks machine isn't working properly, the staff is helpful. The cinema area is clean, as are the restrooms. The staff patrols regularly. The clientele is mixed, ranging from their early twenties to around sixty years old. And, as in any other sex cinema, you need a bit of patience and stamina. The idea that a fit 25-year-old with at least an XL penis is waiting for you 24/7 is simply wishful thinking. Although it can sometimes actually happen. And I can't confirm the claims that money is offered or taken. All in all, it's a sex cinema like any other in Berlin. Some like it, others find it superficial (probably because they couldn't get "the one"), but nobody's forced to go back after a perhaps not-so-great first experience. After all, there's a really wide selection of erotic shops and sex cinemas in Berlin.
Are lockers available?
I met the most unfriendly and incompetent shop boy who just kept telling me to talk to „the manager“when the drink machine took my money but didn’t give me something in return. It turned out that it’s a recurring problem. I asked what the manager had to say about it. And he just said: nothing. It’s the problem of the clients. The manager’s name is Gavia amd he seems to be utterly incompetent. And as many have stated already: the place is bad, boring, the shop boys don’t speak German and give the impression that clients are just annoying them. There far better places in B. Go there.
Very pushy men offering money even when you don't want it; some things need to change. LSD is a thousand times better; everyone understands "no" then.
