Never been to OP4F so can’t comment about their facilities.
Given my journalistic impartiality, the owners seem to have blocked me on various sites.
Look forward to reading how others compare the two clubs.

Ive been to both, only once to OP4F. Quiet different really, OP4F is tiny. LB isn’t huge but has the three distinct areas and private rooms. I love the vibe in LB, ive always found it the most sociable of clubs. People talk to other people they don’t know! Fancy that! Other clubs seem to have their cliques. OP4F has some decent reviews though so whatever floats your boat, |

Been to both and we prefer OP4F due it being much smaller but also much more intimate. We found ourselves moving around a lot in La Boudoir as its on 3 levels and you dont know if you're missing any action. However in OP4F it takes no time to move round the various areas. Another plus is the lifetime membership at OP4F whereas LB you have to pay for membership every year I seem to remember (Unless someone corrects me on that?)
Guess its personal choice but for us OP4F wins every time. |

Not been to LB, but been (as a couple) to OP4F.....we enjoyed it. The small size adds to experience (vs larger clubs which you feel as if you always have to be on the move for fear of missing out!).
For a couple it's also extremely good value - £65 for the first admission which includes lifetime membership...then after that it's something likke £25 on a Friday, £35 on a Saturday etc (which is pretty good value).
They really ought to improve their website though...it's like something from the 90s...a wall of text, and rules...quite offputting to many I'd imagine. They need to get some photos up of the venue & start thinking about having themed paries which punters seemed to love ...this ought to see an increase in attendance which from the reviews appears to be a bit patchy.
Another plu - on a Saturday night, they are one of the few clubs who let in a few single men in (which we feel adds to the vibe)
Overall, a thumbs up for OP4F. |

We’ve only ever been to OP4F, so can’t comment on LB (but heard very good things about that club). OP4F is our favourite club, it’s very small and intimate, staff are amazing - very welcoming and friendly. Because of its size means you see what’s going on, even in the one lockable room which has a two way mirror. We’ve always found the clientele very friendly/sociable and always have fun there xx |

We are members of both.
OP4F is open more frequently than LB but it is very hit and miss and often in our recent experience nearly empty. Being the smallest club you will ever visit OP4F can appear busy with relatively few people, It is a paradise for voyeurs especially on a Tuesday GG night. Staff are pleasant but we’ve noted they appear to employ a hostess , Lola , who is always there to chat up the single guys but we have never seen her play.
Entry prices are reasonably and on a good night it is outstanding fun.
LB is a different kettle of fish. Comparitively vast. Also expensive to join and expensive to attend.
As a result a lot of the riff raff are ed out.
We have had some fantastic action here.
We have attended GG nights at both venues. Althought they deny it , we wondered whether the core group of girls at LB were receiving remuneration or a cut of the takings. We apologise if this is a dreadful libel but this is how it felt to us. Kinda put The Princess off.
We would recommend both clubs.

I come back to what I said earlier.their website is an exercise in "Rules & Regs" ...get past that (Big) hurdle & you might be in for a treat.
But also, it seems to be stuck in the (swinging equivalent) of Groundhog day....a recurring weekly set of events that never change. Whatever happened to for example "Book now for Our Xmas party/extranaganza on Dec xxx" ...or perhaps even "See 2018 out with a BIG bang" ...nope, same format for the saturdays nearest these significant dates.
They really need to splash some cash on a new website (the current one looks like it was built on MSDOS 5.2)...one that is inviting to their core target audience (couples) with photos a plenty (vs the secret they appear to be keeping it) and a website that suggests a vibrant cutting edge venue (by way of ever changing themed nights - personally, me & my club partner hate themed nights, but appreciate the extra attendees they attract) |

"We love the theme nights
Are you saying that OP4F do themed nights? (if so, I couldn't find any on their website)...or were you meaning in general?"
They do themed nights, usually advertised for their monthly couples night. It was glam rock this month x |

Both clubs have lots of good reviews.I am a member of OP4F it’s a small friendly cosy club and the staff are nice and friendly.I applied for membership at Le Boudoir the start of December and with in 24 hours I received a email saying it was declined as over subscribed in my category ( single guy ) so I can’t make a personal comparison between the two but as I said earlier the reviews for both clubs are good. |

I’m sure she can speak for herself but the OP4F “hostess” that you mention isn’t employed by the club, but will help out from time to time showing new members around. We find it’s a very social club and that’s part of its charm xx |
