Continuing with my quest to find new (for me anyway) Bangkok massage establishments, tonight I paid a visit to the Body Club. It's located off of soi 8 Sukhumvit. The web site has a good map.
The lobby is nice with several sofas and a bar. I was directed to a sofa and the manager sat down next to me. I was the only customer in the lobby, there might have been some customers in the massage rooms.
There were about 25 boys and they all quickly lined up on three tiered benches and faced me. Better than the B & N facing semi-circle and there was more distance between me and the line-up. Still, this can be intimidating for some. These boys were all in gym shorts and most of them took off their shirts. The price list suggest a 500B min. tip.
For some reason, I picked one who kept his shirt on.
This is one of those places where the boy does the massage in the nude. You can't tell that from the web site.
The rooms are very nice, there is a photo on the web site. Again, larger nicer rooms than both the popular Hero and Albury nearby. The web site says something about the shower being a part of the massage and now I see what they mean. The shower was unique, I wondered if we were ever getting down to the massage on the big bed.
It was a decent massage. I have had better but noting to complain about. He took his time and covered all the basis. He did not cut the massage short and switch to sex mode before I was ready.
Overall, a decent place and a very nice experience.
