It was Stephane. I'm not sure what the other guys do or when.

Had a few days in Bangkok en route somewhere else, so I thought I'd indulge in a few massage places I hadn't previously tried and I'm happy to share my experiences. First up was Art Massage, a shop along the Surawong road (same side as Tarntawan Place). I chose this as I took a liking to the boy sitting outside. He showed me up to the second floor, with separate rooms (though walls not fully up to ceiling height), and a single shower room along the same corridor. As I appeared to be the only customer, I took a risk at leaving my clothes and money in the room while I took a shower. It was a good massage, with just the right mix of actual massage and sensual/erotic moves that keep you interested throughout. At one point, he asked me if I was gay and then affirmed that he was too. Armed with that information, he shed his own clothes shortly afterwards and the final part of the session was concluded with some mutually enjoyable fun. Overall, an excellent time. For a potentially different experience, I booked a session at Dr Bear in Sukhumvit. Making the arrangements via WhatsApp was easy enough, and the place is upmarket by general standards. In fact, so was the massage, a selection of Ob-orn and Organ II which I selected on the clipboard I was given at the start. For two hours, it was a combination of bliss and some of the unexpected, a truly professional experience. I've had something similar in London for four times the price. Expensive for Bangkok, mind, but I thought it good value. Another day resulted in total frustration: I thought I'd go to S52, only to find when I got to the premises that it's closed with another occupant there. I thought I'd searched around on the forum to check it was still operating and I don't recall any reference to it's closure. As I was in the right area, I thought I'd visit Boys Club, one stop further down the line. But although as it turned out, I was right outside, the lack of any sort of sign, made me doubt, and confused by some out of date addresses and telephone numbers provided by Google, I gave up. After all, you don't want to randomly slide back doors without having some assurance it's the right place. I did, however, return to Boys Club a couple of days later, spurred on by some good reports and useful information provided by other members. When I went, Sunday lunchtime, there was only one boy on duty. I was happy enough although the boy didn't speak Thai or English which made communication a little difficult. I tried to request 90 minutes oil massage (having not been asked or given a price at reception) but after some false starts, the boy said he could only do 60 but 'would try'. This didn't exactly help my mood and I came to the conclusion that the session would be a bit of a dud. His massage skills were ok, but it was lacking any kind of sexual tension which, of course, makes the experience exciting, even though he was also naked from the start. After he'd done my legs and bum, he asked me to turn over, at which point I thought I'd try and move things up a gear. As a trained masseur myself, I got more actively involved, something which got the session going and the boy joined in very enthusiastically. He was a sweet lad (with a great cock) and we both ended up very happy. I think it goes to show that sometimes the best experiences are when you least expect it. In general, I, for one, tend to prefer going to the 'less obviously gay' places (like Art above) where you're not sure how things will pan out, and so you're pleasantly surprised when they turn out well. Plus you're likely to have had a good massage along the way.

I think this is very unlikely. Just went past the old premises and a new building is in progress on the site. No chance of it opening next month by the look of it

Such a familiar story! When I look back over the last two years, I've had to be firm about money. For people who are quite poor, they seem to have no shame in spending other people's money. I resolved to keep a tight rein on things to see if my guy would stick around, and he has done so. It's difficult to say no, but it has to be done. That said, I've not experienced temper tantrums of the sort described here and as others have said, I think he is one to avoid.

I can't see this advert on the TMB site. I'm currently staying on Sukh soi 11 so if you can give me the plot number, I'll happily check it out

I continued my Thailand visit with 12 days in Pattaya. I had a couple of nights to enjoy the attractions before my boyfriend was to arrive from a family engagement. Staying in Jomtien, which I prefer to Boystown simply because it's more relaxed and quieter, I frequented the bars in the centre there, enjoying the drinking companionship of the boys at Boy Gaga. I opted for a foot massage at Happy Massage next to 'Mixer and Quiche Bar' (there's a combination for you). The foot massage was good but for a solid hour I was encouraged by the masseur to let him see more than my feet, and eventually he seduced me into the back room where we delighted in enjoying some carnal activity. The next day, having wandered up to the Boystown and Sunee areas just to see what I might be missing, I eschewed the massage shops there and opted for a four-hand at Sea Massage, on the second road. This was the first time I'd tried this, and whilst it was actually a generally positive experience, I'm not sure I'd bother again. Both boys remained fully clothed, although when one of them left at the end, the other removed his t shirt but that was as far as he'd go. It ended happily for me at least. Once my boyfriend arrived, I opted for massages at The Bind Massage Institute: always very good and straight, so no extra curricular activities to report. Some restaurants I think worth going to include Yupins, Natan's, L'Olivier and Sandbar. I stayed at the Agate, a beautiful new hotel in Jomtien centre. It's sad to see occupancy so low at such a nice place. I had hoped to meet up with another forum member in a couple of days when we were both in town, but my boyfriend was very keen to have me to himself so that put paid to that.

I have to say I can't recommend the Mercure at all. Its proximity to your desired club is all it has going for it. I found this to be a hotel where none of the staff cared in the slightest about the guests, with management nowhere to be seen.

Anddy, go to Mantra for a foot massage and you'll find out! It's not performed in the more usual sitting position. I'll check the soi again, but I'm sure it's the one you are referring to, and if so the shop is on the right hand side as you walk from Silom.

I stayed at the Raya in April. It's a good location, the rooms were large, clean, with comfortable beds (although with an annoying plinth around them), with a peculiar shower and toilet based in a glass box so you're in full view of the occupants of the room, if any. There are blinds but it struck me as odd nonetheless. I don't recall looking out of the window so I cannot comment on the view. Breakfast was a bit sparse and stops being served quite early (maybe 10) so I stopped bothering and went to the Bunfe cafe over the road. Check-in was ok but they didn't seem to want to accommodate early or late arrival or departure, even if rooms might have been available. I'm basing this on the fact that agoda was showing rooms available even though they did there weren't. Wi-Fi was good. Depending on what floor you are on, you don't have to go past reception. I would stay there again, although I've just tried Glow this time around. That was comparable (I had an upgraded room but WiFi was unsatisfactory)

My second visit to Bangkok this year and I decided to visit a couple of places highlighted by some members of the forum- so a grateful thanks to you for trip reports. A member mentioned Oasis Spa, opposite the Bangkok Nursing Hospital, so I thought I'd try it out as it was near my hotel.. I opted for a 2 hour combination oil and foot massage, as an antidote to jet lag. I asked the masseur to make sure I didn't fall asleep, which he dutifully did whenever I appear to have dozed off. Both massages were excellent, and it seemed that nothing else was going to happen , and actually I would have felt quite content if it hadn't. However, I was pretty aroused by the end and when he suggested more was on offer I took his kind a encouragement and so we ended the session both naked on the table for a joint finish. Nice facilities and staff. After a short nap and some food, I ventured to a place I wouldn't have found without this forum: Nature boy. As the only customer, I had the undivided attention of both boys on duty at that time (maybe 8pm), and subsequently a third, all of us removing our underwear at one point for a joint session in the bar. Never done anything like this before, such is my sheltered life. I think I'd have found it better if I wasn't concerned at the possibility of someone else just walking into the bar, nonetheless a good time was had by all. After a brief stop at Dick's, I decided a foot massage was in order at Mantra, just over the road from the infamous sois. This proved an unexpectedly rewarding experience back in April, and I'm pleased to say the place delivered again. On the whole, I think I enjoy the will it/won't it happen suspense at these smaller places than the more organised (and expensive) massage places designed exclusively for men. On the way back to the Hotel, I was enticed into Tawan, also a first for me. Much of the show I could take or leave to be honest, but at least the jerk off bit is unique to anything I've seen in a previous bar. I rather admire the ability to do that to order and in pubic as I'm not sure I could. Finally heading back to the hotel, I passed a small massage place in silom soi 3 with an absolute stunner of a guy outside. Despite my exertions today, I was surely tempted, but after a bit of encouraging eye contact decided I wouldn't get the full value out of it. But I will return to Bangkok in a couple of weeks, and I'll try it out and let you know what it's called.

It's a great report, thanks

I tipped 1,000b.

Faranglaw, they sure do

Not sure I can explain it...Perhaps because I'm not used to the process. Maybe once I've done it a few more times, it won't. Perhaps I need to think of it more as the commercial transaction it is!

Returned to Bangkok yesterday and decided to visit The Prince Spa. Wow! What an amazing selection of fit guys. I think I could have just had a random assignment such is the quality and beauty of the guys. Ok I did find the selection process a little intimidating/embarrassing but I was pleased with my choice. The rooms are really comfortable and clean and a very pleasant 90 minutes was spent in the company of a 26 year old gorgeous Thai boy. I was certainly happy!

The visit to Pattaya was much more constrained as I was meeting up with my boyfriend there. Staying in the heart of the Jomtien complex, I was rarely allowed to venture out on my own for fear that I might be ensnared by alternative entertainment. This was almost comical sometimes, but I really like walking through the complex and engaging in banter with the boys and see no harm in a bit of flirting. I just about managed a foot massage at Soda massage (competent but uneventful) and an oil massage at the place opposite Ganymede that's taken over a former restaurant premises. This was a good experience that ended happily. I had a couple of oil messages at the Blind Institute which is always excellent and above board. Several nights we ate at Dick's (I think the food is better here than the one in Bangkok). Show wise, we visited The Venue and enjoyed it immensely, and Boyzboyzboyz which, to be honest, bored me. I'd rather have just let the boys wander around than try and perform in such a disjointed production. Perhaps I'm expecting too much. Nonetheless the boys themselves were great and an excellent number available from which to choose. It was good to see a bit more life in the Jomtien complex generally. It's a nice relaxed scene there and I hope it grows.

Depends on the date format. More likely 5th November?

Handy if you want a pink suit

Posted!

I arrived late Saturday afternoon after five days in Phnom Penh having originally planned to go to the foam party at Babylon but being quite tired after not much sleep the night before, decided I wasn't in the mood. After a meal at Dick's cafe, I took the metro to Phrom Phong and walked from there to Jeyspa (10 minutes I guess), arriving around 8pm. I opted for a 90 minute scrub and oil massage for 800b. Masseurs are chosen on a tablet. Having first asked if they were all available, I made my choice. Not available. Nor the second. Having established that the guy had not understood my question, I asked him to pick out the ones that were actually physically present. And so finally a suitable and available choice was made. The room was nice, with en suite outdoor shower (I know that's a kind of oxymoron but it describes it well). The scrub part was good, Masseur naked from the start. Showering was alone until the end of the session although I could have done with his assistance getting all the grit off after the scrub part. I thought the massage part was fairly good too, and involved a nice slippery body to body segment which I wasn't expecting. Perhaps the only criticism I would offer is that i like the whole massage to have its erotic moments along the way, whereas this lacked that until the end. Perhaps we just didn't have a connection, which sometimes happens? No specific mention was made of special services (although the menu refers to a minimum tip for soft and hard services), but I wasn't too fussed as I was quite tired and relaxed by this point and happy to leave it at a simple HJ. After settling the bill/tips, the masseur gave me a lift on his mc to the top of the soi (which is actually a pretty long walk). For the evening, I went to the late show (midnight) at Hot Male. A good selection of boys there, I thought, and the show was choreographed and performed well. I wasn't up for offing anyone so left it at one drink and returned to my hotel after the conclusion. The next day, after a lot of faffing around in the dtac centre in Silom getting a Thai SIM card (why does it take so long?), I decided to head for Banana Club for the afternoon. I thought the setup here first class. Everything was very professional. The manager helped me choose a masseur and there was no embarrassment; it was all matter of fact and making sure I was going to be happy. Yes, he genuinely seemed to care. The massage itself was excellent. Clearly the guy had been professionally trained and everything reached a happy conclusion on both sides. So enamoured was I with the place, I opted for a foot massage afterwards too, in the downstairs part which seems to be doing really good business. I wasn't expecting to partake of anything else that day, but after traipsing around Terminal 21, I felt I could do with another foot treatment later that evening. A couple of boys took my eye at Mantra (not previously mentioned anywhere on this forum I believe) which is across the road and 50 yards to the right from Raya Surawong hotel, and I took a punt at a 250b 1 hour foot massage. Unlike most places, there were no reclining chairs, but mattresses on the floor in curtained 'cubicles'. I was asked to remove my shorts and put on the loose trousers used for Thai massage. The massage proceeded in the normal fashion but half way through more attention than usual was given to my legs, the masseur in an interesting position, his elbow gently massaging what was becoming a sturdy third leg. After a cheeky smile from him, it was only a matter of time before the trousers were around my ankles and his mouth doing most of the work. With negligible encouragement, his clothes also disappeared and we spent the remainder of the time rolling about blissfully and him cumming all over my face. Almost certainly we would have done more if I hadn't felt twinges of a possible stomach upset! I think I will go back when I return from Pattaya in 10 days, even though it was probably the unexpected nature of it that made it so hot. More mundanely, I changed hotels today. I stayed at the Tarntawan Place last night but had only booked one night. When I enquired about another night before arriving, they quoted me a stupid price and so I booked the Raya Surawong instead, and I'm glad. I wasn't impressed with the Tarntawan, even though I know it's a favourite with others on here. The room did not smell fresh and although they did come and spray it, the effect didn't last long. Breakfast, despite the claim to be 24 hours, had all gone by 10 am so I went to a cafe round the corner. By contrast the Raya was cheaper, included breakfast and is smart and clean, so that's where I'll stay from now on. The only issue was the check in process where I was given a form to sign with the name of a different guest and even sex. Very peculiar, even though the surnames had some similarities if you didn't listen too closely.

Notwithstanding this warning, I went to Banana this afternoon. I'll write about it in a separate trip report but all my belongings were intact at the end.

Hot Male late show tonight was midnight and lasted half a hour

It's definitely worth a day trip to the Phi Phi islands, if you're comfortable withb long bumpy speed boat rides

I arrived via a Thai airways flight from Bangkok. According to the stewardess, as I had an e-visa, I didn't need to fill in any of the forms they were handing out on the plane. Wrong. I had to suffer the humiliation of being sent to the back of the (admittedly short) queue once by the immigration officer and then by the customs officer. I'm sure I must have saved some time somewhere paying a premium for the e-visa but it's not immediately obvious. My first bout of indulgence, after a visit to the disturbing Toul Sleng Genocide museum, was a visit to Ganesh House for a 90 minute oil massage. I haven't seen it mentioned a great deal, so here's my account for the record. It didn't get off to a great start as either I picked a boy the manager didn't want me to, or he couldn't make out what letter I was referring to, but he kept trying to declare I'd chosen someone else. This happened four times, but I stuck my ground, and I'm very glad I did. I had one of the best massages I can remember having. Not rushed but beautifully and evenly executed from a cute boy who has clearly had proper training. At the end, he asked me if I wanted a special message, and there ensued a really great passionate time. All in all, I really positive experience in some great premises. More to follow..

Ha, this chart is absolutely brilliant! I've been looking through various posts trying to collate information to choose which places to visit on my forthcoming trip at the end of the month. This nicely brings it all together! Thanks
