THE VENUE
Location
Eden Club is very centrally located and easy to get to. It is within moments of Nana BTS station. When you arrive at Nana, take the exit for Sukhumvit Soi 7/1 (the one with a Subway sandwich branch on the left corner). Walk about 25 metres down the soi and you will see The Eden Club on your right. Look for the red sign with the logo here. 10/10

Location
While located in the downtown area, Bangkok Cozy is a bit of a trek to get to. It’s on Petchaburi Road, one of the city’s main thoroughfares, but is not near any public transport stops. You certainly can’t walk there. Unless you go by taxi, the best approach is as follows: take the skytrain to Thong Lor station and after exiting, start walking down Soi Thong Lor on the left. After about 50 metres you will find a motorbike taxi stand. Ask one of the guys to take you to Petchaburi intersection “yaek Petburi” in Thai). He’ll whizz you down there in 5 minutes for 25 baht.
At the intersection, head left along Petchaburi Road. Bangkok Cozy is about a 5 minute walk from where the motorbike drops you. It’s off the main road, in a little enclave, but keep an eye out for the big billboard sign (right). When you see that, head into the sub-soi at that point and you will see the parlour. 6/10
THE VENUE
Location
This is in the same little “massage enclave” as Pink Massage. Very close to Phrom Phong BTS station in central Sukhumvit, just metres down Soi 24, opposite the side entrance of the Emporium mall. Look for the yellow board on the advertising sign and then the shop with the yellow decor. 10/10
Facilities
It is a typical shophouse unit. You enter at the ground floor, with the receptionist’s desk immediately to your right. The girls all assemble on a couch to the right of that. The girls will have either been hanging around outside or in a room at the back. The customer area is quite small and not especially decorated. Nice to see the girls in person, though, rather than be shown a book.
After making your choice, the girl leads you to your room, up some fairly steep stairs. If it’s as high as the third floor, you might find this quite tiring and really need that massage!
The rooms are small, with a single bed, hatstand, small cabinet and a shower unit. It’s about normal for a “Sukhumvit style” place. There is one mirror at the head of the bed and a small window. Mango’s reputation is based on its services rather than its facilities, so let’s hope that comes to pass, because in all honesty the shop and rooms are rather inferior. 3/10
THE VENUE
Location
Annie’s is a short walk from the nearest public transport but its location is convenient in that it is located in an established red-light area, Nana. Many people would like to go there before or after hitting the bars in Nana Plaza or on Sukhumvit Soi 4. The nearest station is Ploenchit BTS, from where you walk about 5 minutes to Sukhumvit Soi 2. Alternatively you can exit at Nana BTS, from where it is only a couple of minutes’ walk more to Soi 4. There is a sub-soi which runs between Soi 2 and 4, about 50 metres in, and Annie’s is on the left corner where the sub-soi meets Soi 2, roughly opposite the Majestic Grande Hotel. 9/10
THE VENUE
Location
Dream Heaven has a decent city centre location, although it does require a short walk from the nearest BTS station. The shop is on the left hand side of Sukhumvit Soi 33 as you proceed down from the Sukhumvit Road mouth of the soi. Look for the sign in the picture. It is about a 5-minute walk from the soi entrance, next to a more brightly decorated shop called Love Teen. Allow for a 10-minute walk, all told – about 5 minutes to reach Soi 33 from Phrom Phong BTS, and another 5 minutes walk down the soi. 8/10
THE VENUE
Location
Pink Massage is well located, very close to Phrom Phong BTS, or about 10 minutes’ walk or a short motorcycle/taxi ride from Sukhumvit subway station. From the mouth of Sukhumvit Road, turn in to Soi 24 and after about 100 metres on your left you will find a small plaza consisting mostly of massage shops. A Korean restaurant is on the left corner. If you look up from street level you will also see signs advertising the businesses in the side street, including one for Pink Massage, which is unmissable due to its bright colours and heart shapes. Alternatively, if you come out of the Soi 24 exit of the Emporium mall, the massage complex will be right in front of you. The location is in the downtown area, near landmarks such as Emporium and Benjasiri Park, and is the shortest of walks from public transport. 10/10
