Re: Vietnam: Guidance Requested
I was in hotels where even this was not allowed and you had to meet your friend at the reception. On the other hand there are hotels which have more liberal ideas or good relations to the police. I talked to guys on GR and asked them , just for interest, if they knew these hotels and the answer was always, yes , no problems. Vietnamese are quite pragmatic and you can ask directly. There is a well known place in Hanoi, Hoan Kiem Lake where you can find hustlers all the day, just have a seat at a bench..be sure you will be approached soon. But it is always, "ayor". It can be a nice, maybe gay student who wants to practice his English and something more or just a hustler who wants to get you to a karaoke place etc, I would highly recommend to find a guy on GR and ask him which hotel to book etc..........................................

Re: Vietnam: Guidance Requested
When I moved to Saigon in 1999, the usual procedure was to find a boy, often at the gay nights of Samson Disco (now defunct), then go to a short time hotel in the back packers area to get a room for an hour or two. I did have a couple of guys back to my apartment but that was not well thought of by the manager. As far as I know, the short time hotels, which any of the GR guys will know, are strill your best bet in Saigon.
Though it happens less frequently these days, police often made visits to private homes and/or hotels to make sure there was no one who was not registered. Even staying past midnight at the home of a friend or relative required registration with the local plice. That is one reason why some hotels require visitors to leave at 10pm. The other reason is that they don't want to encourage prostitution. But as said, the short time "hourly rate" places should suit one's needs.
Re: Vietnam: Guidance Requested
A friend who served with the Army in Vietnam, returned before Xmas and toured and said he had no trouble with gay company.
He used gayromeo ,set his target under 24 and posted his info in as visitor, 6 weeks before leaving.
He said he had millions of contacts which suggests he got a lot of replies
He broke down his replies to
Hanoi. Ho Chi Minh and Da Nang. He included touring and got some interesting replies.
He missed out on boys in Hue, Dong Nai and Haiphong because of the time they were available, and his companion. There were a few others.
I recommend putting yourself in as a visitor and tell them where you will be, what you are looking for and an idea of price.
If you are touring north like him, place where you plan to be and the dates.
There was a problem with dates, which he said he had to add a day to his trip each end to get right.
Hope this is of help
Re: Vietnam: Guidance Requested
Hi
Too late for the original request for information but I am 59 and a very average UK gay man.
I have visited Vietnam about 10 times in the last 5 years.
Night spots come and go very quickly so you do need local knowledge.
I admit that I have never rented or paid for sex. Do presents count ?
I have found plenty of great younger men who want anything from friendship to sex without being paid although I do pay for meals and drinks.
Hotels vary amazingly. Sanouva is great and convenient. As I get to know my friends in Vietnam first then in most other hotels I book them in as a guest for an overnight stay.
Does mean I move around a bit though :)
Godmother is OK and totally relaxed about guests but the accommodation is poor and not very clean. OK to meet and a quicky I suppose.
VietSingle has plenty of gay men listed and some are rent with phone numbers but many are just great friendly younger men who want to enjoy time with you.
New gay hotel in Saigon is Pink Tulip hotel but I have yet to stay there.
Hanoi is more conservative but a couple of cheaper popular hotels in the old quarter have very friendly young male staff who are happy to help you enjoy your stay
I recommend Vietnam as a great place
Re: Vietnam: Guidance Requested
Just visited Hanoi for Tet, probably not the best time to go as many of the bars/restaurants are closed and the boys all go home. I still managed to find sufficient naughty fun to keep me satisfied.
Polar Spa had about six boys and Ami-Spa had four. Hanoi Mania only had one but he was quite something.
Hanoi has about 6 Massage places in total but several of them are owned by the same person.
