You may have noticed that some escorts and massage and bodywork service providers offer so-called Hotel Massage while others offer Outcall Massage. So, what’s the difference?

Now, the term “Hotel Massage” is quite specific, which means that the massage practitioner offers to visit your hotel to give you a massage session in your hotel room. So, to be clear, “Hotel Massage” is not a massage treatment offered by a hotel (like in a hotel spa), or belonging to the hotel, or something.

In fact, Hotel Massage is a form of Outcall Massage (sometimes also called Mobile Massage), because Outcall Massage involves that a masseur/masseuse can visit you at your home, in your hotel room, or in your boat or camper, and where not. It means that you don’t need to go to the practitioner’s home/studio or to the massage establishment/parlor to have a session, which is sometimes called Incall Massage.

Now, some therapists or establishments that offer Hotel Massage may also come to your home or vacation rental (such as an Airbnb apartment) if you’d ask for it, while others only visit hostels or hotels. The latter could be the case for safety reasons, or because hotels/hostels are usually more concentrated in city centers or certain neighborhoods, which would make the logistics easier.

Another reason why you would see offerings for Hotel Massage is because of the target group. That is, you will more often see hotel massage offerings in highly touristic areas or in big cities frequented by business travelers. The rationale here is that many travelers don’t have their own home abroad, and would typically stay in a hotel or hostel, hence the more commercially attractive term “Hotel Massage”.

As for the type of massage or bodywork you can expect, well, that could basically involve any type of treatment, so you need to check what exactly are the options. Think here of Thai Massage, Swedish Massage, Sportsmassage, Lomi-Lomi Massage, but also sensual erotic massages such as Tantric Massage, Prostate Massage, Yoni Massage, Sensual Oil Massage, B2B Massage, and Couples Erotic Massage, to give some examples. In addition, offerings may also include BDSM, kink, and/or fetish treatment modalities.

Most of the time, the practitioner will bring their own portable massage table or inflatable matrass along with the necessary accessories and equipment — such as oils, creams, gels, incense, props, sex toys, handcuffs, a whip or flogger, a blindfold, or whatever else is required to carry out the specific treatment offered. Alternatively — depending on the modality — a massage or bodywork session may also be carried out on a double-size bed.

In conclusion: all the things mentioned above for Hotel Massage typically also apply to service offerings of Outcall Massage. Usually, Outcall Massage would include a broader range of options than Hotel Massage, notably differing in that offerings may also include sessions at your home, boat, or camper, and so on, while the privacy of your home may be more suitable for specific kinds of treatments.
