You are absolutely right, I have edited my post.

Entirely correct but mamasan has cleverly only delivered 100 baht notes, and sticks his hand out for 100 baht tip. I have been outwitted by mamasans more times than I can count.

I like Chatrium Riverside. It is on the same stretch of premium riverfront as Four Seasons and Capella, but fraction of the price. There were very reasonable rates to be had for NYE as late as November 2025. The best part is that it comes with a balcony, ideal for hosting. If you’re willing to splurge on the 1 BR suite, this is a serviced apartment set up with kitchen unit for cooking and spacious living room. I paid 6000 baht in September. Most are corner units I think, with front facing view and also clear side view of Asiatique and Rama III bridge. For some reason the official site is suggesting the suite is 18,000 baht for 31 Dec 2026 but I remember clearly that I checked in Nov 2025 for this past NYE and it was not more than 10,000. I suspect dynamic pricing and maybe people have blocked multiple hotel options that they will then cancel mid year. Also it seems longer stay = better price. If you want a view of IconSiam then Royal Orchid Sheraton. Floor to ceiling window but no balcony, has a very nice restaurant on the riverfront though. You will need to manually arrange with hotel to give you a room with best view of IconSiam.

Most hotel front desks are happy to provide small bills? Some keep stacks of exactly ten 100 baht bills ready to hand out, or even offer different denominations 100 50 20 so you can easily tip their staff or pay for taxi. Only downside to this is bellboys expectantly hovering once they see you getting small notes. if I forget at the hotel I avail of 7-11 or Foodland 100% I also feel like I have to tip mamasan for their help so 1000 instantly becomes 900 which is a very poor exchange rate

Sorry what am I missing? Looks the same to me

Women are expected to produce a baby at the end. Not sure what bottoms produce.

Pay for a Bolt. The expense is minimal compared to the risk. I knew a bar boy very well who had a car and a motorcycle. He was a confident driver and drove both well, so I used to hop on the back of his bike and go for a late supper. A few months later I found out he was quite short sighted but was too vain to use his glasses at the bar. I’m still scared when I think of the accidents we could have encountered. Luckily we only went to places he was very familiar with and had the roads committed to memory. Edit: I and other members can also probably remember at least 1-2 bar boys who got into serious accidents on bikes, some even losing their lives. I just remembered I was told only last week that an ex Jupiter Vietnamese boy died in a bike accident recently. Then there was famous Mekhin who had entire side of his head and brain squashed in, at the start of Covid. Sorry to be a damp squib but I feel strongly about this issue. I would only suggest riding pillion if distance is short and boy is very sober, or under special circumstances like you have taken boy to Koh Larn or Koh Samet.

He doesn’t have enough towels though

yes thank you for being a good sport @vinapu and also a fount of helpful information which I relied on many a time alwaya appreciated that your posts and tips were not limited to just mongering but also travel, sites of interest like visiting Ayutthaya

I also appreciate that this board is optimised for phone use, unlike Gaybutton which I now struggle with due to failing eyesight whatever happened to Sawatdee gay?

which board did Surfcrest own? I remember the handle but not the details Wasn’t there an owner or mod of this board named Michael?

May I point out you have a suite too and can host an orgy of your own 🤪

Is he wearing the stamps in a garland around his neck, like 100 baht bills?

Extended dates?! I can’t think of anything more hellish 🥴

From a boy sitting on your face I hope

I’ve just started thinking about Songkran plans as well. By 16 April, the water fights and chaos should be mostly over, even in Silom. You will still get the occasional water truck or group of youths but easily avoided. Last time I stayed riverside to avoid the water throwing. There is a defined water zone outside IconSiam, usage of water guns is not permitted in the mall, and there are sheltered walkways from boat dock to mall. We had a pleasant water-free stay.

I really enjoyed the Le Méridien lounge on my last trip. Sometimes my planned schedule doesn’t work with happy hour but this time it fit perfectly. I had at least two evenings sampling their solid drinks selection before heading to the bars. Food is of a good standard too. Not everything is great but there are usually at least 2 hot dishes that are tempting (out of a range of 4-5), in addition to the cheese board, desserts, and salad. I brought a “date” one evening and he had so many pieces of shrimp that we had to cancel dinner plans. It was always quite busy though so I never got a window seat. Breakfast is a much smaller affair than the big buffet downstairs but the room was empty and I savoured the peace and quiet.

If your exact question to mamasan was which boy is willing to bottom, then yes 3 sounds about right. The straight or bi guys willing to go with men are tops. Jupiter is not the right place to look for bottoms though there used to be more and at least 2 boys who preferred ladyboys.

I don’t think this is accurate. Mamasan may have been pointing out those who are gay and prefer men. I looked at the most recent Jupiter video, and know for a fact there are at least 3-4 who are 100% gay and only go with men. But at least 10 in the line up willing to go with guys. Also mamasans do not have foolproof knowledge of boys’ sexual preferences as they actually rarely chit chat in the bar. or, you may have encountered a mamasan who was trying to get offs for his 3 favorites

Thank you for the enjoyable report. This post in particular made me miss Bangkok. And your food looked very good too!

Sorry to break it to you but the young do not collect stamps these days (there are none to be had). vinapu will have to collect something else that one can still find

See attached. Use Prime Massage or Quarter Silom as your search pin.

And one more of the horrendous queue which is why I will never go again, even if I could age backwards by 10 years v14044g50000d59vjs7og65k32lgin50.mp4

Here are some videos from this year. The party itself can be fun if you’re young, ripped, and have friends to go with. v24044gl0000d58pi97og65ruqarmi30.mp4 v14044g50000d592dn7og65k9ap913hg.mp4 v12044gd0000cm8v5ffog65q9bq3to60.mp4 v14044g50000d59u9gfog65k0fdt72ng.mp4

I actually looked up his photo again to see if that indecipherable chest tattoo might be a tiger’s head… but it is a deer in a forest 😆 He was in the Christmas videos I posted so guessing answer is yes
