Bangkok gay saunas 2022

Overview of currently open gay saunas in Bangkok. Update of previous similar posts:

https://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2018/06/gay-activities-jun-2018-thailand.html
For general remarks see these. This posts includes saunas closed since my last post as well.

This post is mostly armchair research. I have only been to a few. In all other cases I just called or checked their Facebook, Twitter, Line. In these uncertain times it's better to call everywhere to make sure they are open.
Times are in 24-hour-system, omitting zero minutes for full hours.

Alphabetic list (numbered, disregarding numbers, articles, punctuation marks, “sauna” in name) with websites (only their own website or facebook, not counting entries on other websites; “offline” means nothing comes, “overtaken” means other stuff is displayed, date is when I first noticed) and landline phone number:

  1. Somehow I think Waterboy=last one, 29, has been closed long ago-but you can chck if tel.nr works.
    Male Box (reading other recent report) is halved in size, was 2, not 1 townhouse.
    Macho is beside (right hand side) of PATA Pinklao, behind is a low-price supermarket with damaged goods from tesco.
    BKK for a city its size still must have the highest nr of sauna per inhabitant anywhere in this world.

  2. 20 Nake (Happyland / Ladprao / The Mall Bangkapi) and Dejavu (Ladprao Soi 122) are definitely closed for at least 2 years.
