6 of the 89 Tokyo shops we list are based in Ueno / Okachimachi. That said, the area does not decide the price range.

The 60-minute column shows each shop's listed price. In the price comparison below, as with our Tokyo-wide figures, we count only private-room / outcall shops, and for shops whose basic course leaves out what other shops include in the price, we use the amount adjusted to the same level.
The area doesn't decide the price
You sometimes read that Ueno is cheaper than Shinjuku, but within what we could check, it isn't that simple. The 60-minute course at Ueno's 4 private-room / outcall shops runs from ¥14,000 to ¥17,000. Across Tokyo it is ¥13,000–¥17,000 (median ¥15,000).
In other words, narrowing down the area doesn't narrow down the price range. The differences between shops' pricing are bigger than the differences between areas. If you are choosing on price, it's quicker to start from the price comparison than from the area, and we explain how to work out what you actually pay in Urisen prices aren't decided by the listed price.
Which station to use
The area centres on 3 stations: Ueno, Okachimachi, Ueno-hirokoji. JR Ueno and Okachimachi are on the Yamanote and Keihin-Tohoku lines, Ueno-hirokoji is on the Ginza line, and all of them are within walking distance of each other.

2of these shops publish an address down to the street number. Private-room / outcall shops normally don't give a location because you meet them somewhere, and the ones that do often have their own private rooms. A list of shops that publish their address is at shops that publish a street-level address.
How it differs from Shinjuku
The big groups' flagship shops are concentrated in Shinjuku, so there is more choice there, and Ueno can't match it for numbers.
For the Shinjuku side, see Urisen in Shinjuku Ni-chome; for the list by area, see Urisen in Ueno / Okachimachi.
Frequently asked questions
Q.How many urisen shops are there in Ueno?
Of the 89 Tokyo shops we list, 6 are based in the Ueno / Okachimachi area. That is the same number as Shibuya, the most for any area after Shinjuku (not counting “Elsewhere in Tokyo,” which groups several places such as Gotanda and Shinagawa).
Q.Is Ueno cheaper than Shinjuku?
Not as a rule. Ueno's private-room / outcall shops charge anywhere from ¥14,000 to ¥17,000 for 60 minutes, which largely overlaps the range for Tokyo as a whole (¥13,000–¥17,000). Prices aren't set by area; the differences between individual shops are bigger.
Q.Do Ueno shops publish their addresses?
2 of the 6 publish an address down to the street number. Private-room / outcall shops usually don't give a location because you meet them somewhere, but shops that have their own private rooms sometimes do.
Q.Can I go during the day?
MONSTER（ウリ専モンスター） starts taking bookings before noon. The other shops that publish their opening time start between 12:00 and 13:00, so Ueno is an area that is up and running during the day.
We only list shops we could verify, so this is not every shop in the area. Prices and hours are as stated on each shop's official site and may change.
