A SEX robot brothel in Italy that was shut down two weeks after its launch will REOPEN, says its owner.

Lumidoll was closed by police after alleged infringements of Italian property law, according to reports in Italian media.

But owner Sergi Prieto told Daily Star Online: "At the moment the premises will remain closed until these bureaucratic details are resolved but the forecast is that they can resume the activity soon."

He also rubbished reports about questionable hygiene standards, saying that "hygiene in the establishment of LumiDolls is 100 per cent guaranteed."

The closure came after the firm’s second brothel in Barcelona was forced to move to a new location after the building's landlord cancelled the lease.

Lumidolls also has a brothel in Moscow, Russia, and the firm has plans to open other sex dens across the world.

It is believed Italian cops raided the Turin brothel after checks showed it was not legally allowed to run hospitality on the premises, Ansa reports.

However, Sergi Prieto says the information regarding the brothel shared by Turin City Council was untrue.

He said: "As you know, we also had this kind of problem with the media in Barcelona in the past.

"They told things that were completely false."

Hygiene authorities are now carrying out an investigation to see if the firm’s doll cleaning met all standards.

Lumidolls owner Sergi Prieto previously told Daily Star: “As you know in Italy, prostitution is 100% legal.

“Customers will have the option at Lumidolls Torino to have new sexual experiences in a safe and secure place.”

Punters at Lumidolls pay £67 per half an hour or £83 an hour to rent a room with the sex-robots.

The brothels allow randy men to live out their sordid fantasies without having to persuade real women to indulge them.

Sex doll Katy is one of the hyper-realistic silicone beauties on offer to punters at the Barcelona 'brothel'.

The agency's website tells guests that they will "hardly distinguish" between the dolls and real women.

“With Lumidolls, customers can perform any of their sexual fantasies they do not dare to do with a woman," a spokesman told the Star.

“This allows them to fulfil their wildest fantasies that may be with other people they can not, may be they have some physical complex that does not allow them to be comfortable with a person, and with a doll it makes this much easier.”

There are four dolls to choose from, including blue-haired Aki, whose look is inspired by Japanese anime.

Each of the dolls even has a profile describing their attributes, from Lily's "angelic face" to Katy's "penetrating gaze".

The dolls are made using thermoplastic elastomer, a polymer renowned for its softness, and the website is keen to point out the dolls are "properly disinfected with special antibacterial soaps" before and after each service.

Nonetheless, visitors are urged to use a condom.

Guests can choose what their dolls wear and watch porn with them.

Visitors to the brothel are welcomed into a candlelit room where they can watch pornography for a "unique experience".

The Lumidolls site says: "Tell us how you want to encounter your doll, what kind of clothes you want her to wear and in what position she should be."

It comes as hyper-realistic sex robots are set to hit the market this year - costing around £12,000.

But sex dolls are not just for men, with one woman spilling the beans on her experience with a plastic man whose penis was "at times indistinguishable from a real one".
