Pros: -The best site of old favorite porn magazines (Hustler, Playboy, Penthouse)
- I’m not for sure if something has changed but you can now download the videos and they even have 4K downloads.
- Good for those of us that prefer the late 90s/early 2000s style of porn, especially lesbian scenes. Very similar to Vivid.
- Download speeds are good (80% my max)
- Pretty models but very few amateurs
- Over 3,000 models
Cons: - The production is good but it feels like it is stuck in the past.
- Not as much fun as buying a new Penthouse in the 90s.
Bottom Line: One of my favorite stories to tell about porn involves Penthouse magazines. I remember getting off work as a teenager and being excited knowing the local gas station had the new Penthouse. It is the one experience internet porn cannot replace. The anxiety, the nervousness, of walking in a store and asking a real person (usually a hot woman) to sell you pornography.

I hadn’t joined Penthouse Gold in years until I received a holiday promo email. I can’t complain much about the site or value. The site lives up to expectations of past pornography magazines. Stellar quality photos, great lighting and just a professional feel on neary everything. This site would be my favorite if this was 2007. The glam look on the models. The sexy lesbian scenes. The same thing I remember seeing in Penthouse March 1998 issue. Nostalgia only makes it so far in porn.

The part that takes me back to 2007 is me saying a porn site is only as good as its models. I still believe that. Give me all the technical bells and whistles but if the models are not attractive, I won’t care about the bells and whistles. Penthouse, maybe more than any site or brand has some of the prettiest, glam models in porn’s history.

I was surprised to see the 4K downloads but didn’t download those. I am still okay with 720p. The picture sets come in the expected downloadable zips. The photos are also sharp in contrast and maybe a little glossy, just like the old magazines used to be until you got the pages sticky.

There does not look to be any kind of limits on downloads. The biller is Penthouse themselves and it works as well as you would expect. It’s a very easy to use site. The model list may keep you occupied for a few days just looking at all the pretty women. The pictures do live up to expectations as well. I would go as far as saying the pictures are the best on the internet. Not based on technical quality. The photos go up to 2500 long end and that’s small compared to photo sites but the poses, production, direction and outfits show that Penthouse understands how important all those are to making quality pictures.

That’s how I will base my recommendation. The videos are good but the photos are better and should be the main reason you join this site. If this was 2007, I would score this a 97 or 98 but it’s 2023. I can appreciate the work they put into the photos but it’s just not enough in 2023.

Pros: Discounted price through PU/TBP
Choice of billing methods is Paypal (Epoch) or Rocketpay
Large collection going back many years including the classic magazine shoots from the 70s 80s & 90s.
Something to suit all tastes from solo glamour photo shoots to B/G hardcore videos, lesbians, threesomes and more.
Photo galleries downloadable in zips in two different sizes 1024px & 1600px.
Most videos come with 4 download options; 1920 x 1080 (8000k), 1280 x 720 (4000k), 992 x 558 (2000k) & 640 x 360 (1000k). Can also stream at 720p and 480p.
Site updates 7 days a week with usually 3 or 4 galleries/videos.
Good D/L speeds around 80% of my max.
No problem using my D/L manager (Firefox DTA).
Excellent navigational features; search and sort the content, tags and categories.
Add comments, like and add to favourites.
Cons: Pre-checked cross sell on sign-up.
Visa cards not accepted if joining through Paypal.
Minimal 4k video, only one or two a month have the 4k option which is basically the new Penthouse Pet of the month solo shoots.
For a name like Penthouse famous for it's glamour shoots a maximum photo resolution of 1066 x 1600px is disappointing by today's standards.
Poor file naming of zips and videos, just meaningless numbers.
A minor annoyance having to scroll right down to the bottom of every photo gallery page to get the zip download links.
Some of the oldest pre 2005 photo shoots that have not been remastered are low resolution typically 432 x 648px.
Bottom Line: Penthouse is probably one of the most famous names in the adult industry and those of us of a certain age can probably remember getting our hands on a copy of their magazines as a curious teenager way back before the internet or even VHS videos were invented. I'm not quite sure what the story is with this website but I get the impression the original Penthouse site closed down, the content library got sold and was then re-branded as Penthouse Gold. The Best Porn list this site as being launched in 2019 but the library of content here certainly goes back many years including the classic magazine shoots from the 70s, 80s & 90s. Site stats as of today are 4007 videos, 8528 photo galleries and 2836 models (including the male models).

The majority of models are US based so that makes for a more diverse selection of models than your typical Eastern European website. You have everything from fresh faced teens to busty milfs and everything in-between with a nice selection of Ebony, Asian and Latina models thrown into the mix. I found nice photo collections of many of my favourite models I've collected since the early to mid 2000s such as Carli Banks, Faye Reagan, Georgia Jones, Hanna Hilton, Jana Jordan and Shay Laren as well as some of my more up to date favourites like Alex Grey, Emily Willis, Gabbie Carter & Naomi Swann.

The site updates 7 days a week with usually 1 video and 2 or 3 galleries. Typically that's a hardcore B/G or lesbian scene and the 3 galleries usually consist of a solo glamour shoot, a hardcore or lesbian photo shoot and another vault set which is a classic set remastered. Occasionally you can get 5 or 6 updates in a day when the “ Pet of the Month” is added. Unfortunately many of the updates are not actually newly produced content. Majority of the scenes added in the last week are from DVDs released in 2008 and 2009 however it does appear to be all exclusively shot by Penthouse Studios.

It's easy to find your way around the site with the excellent navigational features. You have “Penthouse Pets” which shows you all the Pets of the Month with a drop down menu allowing you to search any year from 2020 back to 1972. The videos heading has sub sections for “Latest videos, Behind the Scenes, PH Confidential and 3D”. You can also search the content from drop down menus of various categories from the type of action (B/G, G/G, BGG etc.) to model appearance (Busty, Blonde, Redhead, Asian, Ebony etc.), You also have a nice model index which you can sort by most recent, most popular and an A-Z listing. Other categories include Erotica and Magazines where you can browse and read erotic stories, letters and articles as well as the photos from the Penthouse magazines right back to the 1970s. There's also a link to discounts to other sites, live cams and a store selling adult products and sex toys.

Being a photo collector my main interest in the site were the solo glamour photo shoots. These are professional glossy magazine style shoots here with typically between 30 to 60 photos per set, beautiful girls in nice settings wearing sexy lingerie before getting naked. Most disappointing aspect of the photos was having a maximum resolution of only 1600px. The content seems to have been downgraded in this site because the original Penthouse site used to issue photo sets in 4000px resolution but unfortunately I never got around to joining that.

Being a big name studio the videos obviously have a professional feel to them with nice settings, excellent camera work, lighting and sound. The solo Penthouse Pet videos are generally quite short at 4-5 minutes but the action scenes I've watched can be anything from 15 to 45 minutes. There are also a number of full length movies around 1hr 30 to 2 hrs long although those are mostly streaming only. The videos I watched just seemed like run of the mill porn videos, I didn't see anything too extreme, in fact I would say much of it is bordering on glamcore. I did find some of the lesbian videos particularly hot though especially the 3 way lesbian scene starring Nekane, Rebecca Volpetti and Stella Cox dressed as schoolgirls.

Overall a decent site with lots of exclusive material to see and something to suit most tastes. Even better if you can find yourself a holiday $15 discount deal as I did.
