That's right, I remember that now. I remember going to the main shop and the lady at the front asked if I want a boy massage and when I said yes I was told to go down the small alley to the side where the other shop was. Seems like the 'main shop' is now a barber (google map street view).

Thanks for this. I came here about 5 years ago, and looks like it is still in the same place. I thought they had closed permanently. Anyway, glad to see that there is another massage place for us, and recalling my last visit, extras were definitely had.

Dreamboys is also my favourite bar and most attended, mainly because my favourite works there. I always seem to be served by the same mamasan also. Last time I was there (January this year) I felt like there wasn't that much choice in boys and the quality had gone down, however it seems like it's getting better lately. Thanks for the report!

Great topic! In my day to day life I don't usually eat breakfast, however if the hotel room I booked comes with breakfast, then I'll eat breakfast. I think one of the standouts for me in Silom would have to be Crowne Plaza. Quite an extensive spread catering to western and asian tastes (particularly Japanese).

Love it! Quarter Silom is such a gay hotel, even one of my regular bar boys told me the same lol

Very, yes, yes. Ask Vinapu - he has offed him in the past 😉

And if you want more luxurious, the new Dusit Thani will be opening soon!

Great news, thank you!

Does the cute waiter still work there? I would go back for him tbh 😅

Or even during lol 😅

He is so cute! Offable??

This is great timing for the 60 day visa waiver! I'm booked to come to Thailand for 60 days later in the year so now I don't have to worry about buying a 60 day tourist visa or extending a 30 day visa waiver.

Just go see!

Senso, Prince and VCK come to mind. There are probably more I've missed..

Yes - line ID is @g.beat

Glad to hear you are back on the ground! Looking forward to living vicariously through you..

Glad you had a good time. Bangkok is my favourite ❤️

I will very gladly take any and every tattooed guy that y'all are not fond of! (tattoo lover here hehe)

Tarntawan is a decent hotel, I've stayed a few times. Guest friendly but your guest will need to leave his ID with the doorman/reception.

Hi all. I'm going to be in Thailand for New Year's and would like to watch some really good fireworks, ideally from my hotel balcony. My first preference would be to watch the fireworks that take place at IconSiam, however all the hotels in the immediate vicinity around the river are unsurprisingly charging an insane amount for that night. Do you happen to know of any decently priced hotels in the area that have a decent view? Alternatively, other places in Bangkok or even the rest of Thailand that have good fireworks shows? I would prefer not to be out and about in the crowds, so a view from a hotel is a must! Thank you 😊

Yes, you can check the menu on google maps https://maps.app.goo.gl/n29Udt4eyfACM5ts7

This is great information @bkkmfj2648. To further add to the above, the only place in Vietnam I've been to is Phu Quoc, and similar to Da Nang, the massage boys will make themselves known on the apps (I used Grindr), whether they are from a shop or freelance (although there is not a lot of choice there, and the grid even reaches to nearby Cambodia). One guy that approached me sent me a price list, from memory I think it was 300k VND if I came to his shop, or he said he could come to me and I can pay what I like. He ended up coming to my hotel and we had quite a good time. When I converted 300k VND to my home currency, it was incredibly cheap so I just gave him double.

You win some, you lose some. Not every experience will be perfect, but don't let it put you off. Communication is key though, use Google translate or whatever if there is a language barrier in the bar to see if said boy comfortable with your expectations. Some won't be, but many will be.

Wow he looks lovely! Wouldn't mind getting to know him better!
