Bangkok gay saunas 2023

Bangkok gay saunas 2023
Overview of currently open or recently closed gay saunas in Bangkok. So much has changed since last year https://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2022/05/bangkok-gay-saunas-2022.html requiring a new post.

New: some locations in coordinates. Over last years, I found that several places I saved on google maps were moved to an incorrect location, and I submitted corrections.

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.

There is a list in Thai of 58 gay venues in Bangkok, see end of post, that I used for this update as well. Has names and locations in Thai. Includes gogo bars, karaoke, discos, some I have never heard of.

Some places have shows or orgies or other special events, not covered in this post. Some places have theme days, not covered either.

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:

No gay activities Jun-Aug2023 Germany

No gay activities Jun-Aug2023 Germany

There were no gay activities. Entertain my readers with other subjects, mostly travel and memes from internet.

Quiz: what is this? Solution at end of post.


After two months in Germany, I start seeing penises everywhere:












Vaginas as well:



Here I came across a place where I could get one (vagina). In the sense of getting access to a vagina, not as sex change. Prostitution is legal in Germany.  A job like any other, at least not dusty, as my loyal reader Vinapu puts it.


The movie “Pretty Woman” was in TV in Germany. Romantic comedy is not a type of movie I usually watch, but both the movie (Richard Gere, Julia Roberts 1990) and the song (unrelated to the movie, “Oh, Pretty Woman” Roy Orbison 1964) are famous, making the movie worth watching to fill a gap in general knowledge. Quite entertaining, and pertaining to my activities in Thailand, highly recommended to every punter and service provider!

I had plans to go to Brazil and Colombia, but flight prices were unreasonably high, postpone to next year and book longer in advance. Instead, I joined a friend on a trip 
Brünn/Brno and went hiking with my parents. 

I went to Brünn/Brno in Czechia to join a friend on his trip there. This trip showed some advantages of European Union and globalization. I went by train, and it would be the same by car, you don't even notice you are crossing a border. EU-wide roaming, including UK as well, means I can use online data at the same price as in Germany.

Czechia kept their currency Czech crown CZK. Normally I would change money, and have some left after the trip. But following my friend's example, I paid everything with my visa debit card. That worked well, only one food stall did not accept card payment (I asked before ordering and went elsewhere). My bank comdirect charges 1.75% for card payment (whereas withdrawal at ATM is free). For this short trip (5 days), it's well worth it. Saves me going to money exchange and dealing with cash and having money left over after the trip.

Prices (hotels, food, public transport) in Czechia are about half of what I would pay in Germany. My train ride from Berlin to
Brünn/Brno would have cost about 130 EUR with German railways, but when I booked the same train with Czech railways it cost only about 80 EUR.

The public transport in Brünn/Brno works with payment by credit card as well. You tap your card when you board and again when you get off. When you forget to swipe off, the system assumes single trip. Their system collects your trips over the day and charges you for a day pass if the sum of single trips exceeds the cost of a day pass.

Update: At time of posting, the same has been introduced for MRT in Bangkok. I tried it and it works (German comdirect visa debit card). A trip that would have cost 38 THB was charged 1.00 EUR, at that time exchange rate was 1 EUR = 38.15 THB. Great for everyone without an MRT card! My Thai bank card (SCB mastercard debit) did not work. I probably would have to register for contactless payment before using it.


However the new bus service from Suvarnabhumi airport to hotels in Bangkok leaves me puzzled. There are gaps of over 1 hour between buses, and it's not cheap either at 180 THB. The wait alone can take longer than other public transport and the bus almost costs as much as a taxi.
https://www.bangkokpost.com/life/travel/2643037/new-bus-service-connects-airport-to-500-hotels


Further on the subject of public transport, bus routes in Bangkok earlier this year got a new numbering system and most buses now have new and old line number written on bus. I recently got the viabus app and it's useful to follow buses that have GPS.

BTS with Rabbit Card does not show the cost of the trip. When I check in, it shows value on card, and when I check out, it shows remaining value and I have to calculate the difference for my diary (daily spending).

In my absence, Yellow Line (Ladprao to Samrong) has fully opened and Pink Line has started free trial runs https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2628690

My parents and I went hiking in Germany. At a temperature of 15 C, I need only half a liter of water for a hike of 25 km horizontally and 500 m up. At a temperature of 20 C, that increases to one liter. In Thailand at 30 C, I would need six liter for this trip. 
And not just that I would have to carry six liter of water (or fill up along the way), most of it will be in my clothes as sweat. In Thailand, I calculate my water requirement as one liter for every 5 km horizontally or 500 m vertically. Recently I read an even simpler formula: 1 liter per hour.

Solution to quiz: a foldable chair in a museum.

Gay activities May-Jun2023 Thailand

Gay activities May-Jun2023 Thailand
More precisely 15may-9jun2023. Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Pattaya.

Mon15may2023 Phnom Penh to Bangkok

Tue16may2023 Bangkok
Suphat101 comes for massage and fun, 1000 well deserved.

Fri19may2023 Bangkok
Anek comes to my room at night. This time I got him for overnight for 1500. Take shower together (his idea). Great body, awesome sixpack, good activities. Ask him for back massage, good: new technique pressing down palm and then twisting or moving in different directions.

Sat20may2023 Bangkok
Wake up 7 and have fun. Anek leaves 8. Too early, too rushed, next time only short time. Long time was my idea to see how it works, it failed.

Mon22-Fri26may2023 Pai
Some days in Pai where I have never been before. A backpacker and hippy hotspot, absolutely not my scene and that's why I gave it wide berth before (easy considering the remote location). I thought the location in mountain and forest would give a reprieve from heat and sun in Bangkok, I was wrong! Sightseeing temples and Pai Canyon. Walking and cycling to get around. No gay venues and little activity on gay online dating.

Young local woman Busan and man sit on bridge and chat me up when I pass. Interesting conversation, she likes to take trips around Chiang Mai to temples and nature with her car and we exchange social media to stay in contact.

Fri26may2023 Pai to Chiang Mai
I had Tar's contact when he was in Bangkok. Cute in all pictures and efficient communication. Now he is back in Chiang Mai and we are going to meet.

Tar comes to my room. Small talk interesting, then hug and undress. Underwear Cailin Kailan trunks white with silver grey waistband nice. I initiate a few closed lip kisses but don't take it further for smell of food (garlic?). Have him wear various underwear, nice. Okay activities.

1150 Tar (1000 for short time, 150 taxi one way). He uses inDrive app, where the app suggests a fare, and the customer can offer a different fare and see if a driver accepts. Whereas I use bolt at rates similar (slightly higher due to fee to app?) to hailing a taxi in Bangkok.

Tar would have stayed over night, in fact I had to compliment him out of my room. No point of over night with other plans tomorrow morning.

All plans to to go to Adam's Apple or New Circle Pub (some enticing pictures on their https://web.facebook.com/Circlepubchiangmai/ and https://www.instagram.com/new_circle_club_chiangmai/) or massage or get someone from online failed for being tired at the end of a day of sightseeing.



Sat27may2023 Chiang Mai sightseeing
Busan picks me up for sightseeing waterfall and temples all day. I want to invite her for lunch, but she refuses. She just wants to practice English. Drives well, music okay (level and style). Does most navigation from memory, rarely google maps. Car a bit dusty and messy, just the level I would have if I had a car.

A friend in Germany has a car fetish and owns 9 cars, more than I have underwear. And his cars are cleaner than my underwear.

Sun28may2023 Chiang Mai sightseeing
Another daytrip with Busan to temples and waterfall. Originally a Farang friend of her wanted to join, but cancels for lack of interest in temples. That is quite common, most of my Farang and even Thai friends have little interest in temples. Busan thanks me for joining today.

Mon29may2023 Chiang Mai to Bangkok
Day train for 628 THB, departure 8:50.

Three good reasons to return to Chiang Mai soon: trips with Busan, Adam's Apple and New Circle Club, now I can get around with bolt whereas before all kinds of travel were inconvenient and/or expensive.

Tue30may2023 Bangkok
Top comes to my room at night. He wears lipstick again! The mere sight is a turn-off for me. General chat and quickly to bed. 300 for taxi.

Fri2jun2023 Bangkok 15M massage
15M massage. Receptionist mentions 1-1.2k tip, I point out 800 in menu, he says for penetration 1-1.2k. 500 THB one hour coconut oil massage (normal oil 400). I choose Neung from pictures. Another masseur Johnny passes in towel in hallway, cute and shapely.

I'm in room 5 at 14:45, 3 bathrooms occupied, have to wait to take shower. Neung arrives 15:03, positive first impression. Takes shower, back 15:06.

Neung undresses, takes shower, comes back. Hard at the start, nice, then loses it during massage. Front of neck tattoo, Massage okay with a bit erotic but overall impression is bored and rushed. After less than 20 min turn around and quickly to happy ending. Nice body, skin temp and skin tone okay. My beard no problem. He is hard throughout, nice cock and balls. Hairless balls, pubes okay. Okay oral nipple play when I ask him. Not talkative, avoids my kisses, objects to running my fingers through his buttcrack. I ask to see him cum, he quotes 2000. No way! Just suck and wank myself. Locks himself in bathroom but opens when I knock and we shower together.

800 Neung bye 15:55 in room. Would recommend to friends, but I won't be back for Neung.

Sat3jun2023 Bangkok
Bank comes to my room and we have a good time. 1000 well deserved.

A Farang friend is and alcoholic (beer only), but has no stock in his room. Even before Buddhist holidays, he doesn't stock up. Usually he can get beer at a mom-and-pop shop, but today they are sold out. But at a convenience store, after begging and crying (his words), they sell him beer!

Sun4may2023 Bangkok to Pattaya
Shared taxi with my loyal reader Vinapu to Pattaya, and I continue to a friend's place in Huay Yai and stay there over night.

Mon5jun2023 Huay Yai to Pattaya
From Sukhumvit Huay Yai I was charged 30 on a white songtheo to South Pattaya. Before Covid, that was 20.

Online dating promising. Suddenly a message on Line from Haman. We had chatted in Phnom Penh, but then he moved to Battambang permanently. I wouldn't go to Battambang to meet him, but he would certainly be on my menu when I'm in Battambang again. Now he is in Pattaya, falling into my lap!

Slim body, brown skin. Skin temperarture okay, only hands cold. Light smell of perfume. No body hair, no hair on balls and ass.
Good activities. 1000 well deserved.

200 beer in Nice Boys 20:47-21:16. 12 boys and 2 customers during my stay. Dui cute and shapely, Folk cute but not shapely any more.

Dream Boys about 10 in jeans, pass.
X-Boys over 10 in white shorts, pass.
A-Bomb 5 boys in jeans. Tell every bar why I don't go in.
Pass BoysBoysBoys, look through door, boys fully dressed on stage.
Toy Boys over 10 in underwear, but tip expectation 1500, pass.
Five years ago I could spend nights in gogo bars in Boystown, now it's a quick walk through and a yawn.

Tue6jun2023 Pattaya
Tong comes to my room. Light smell of perfume on neck (my current pet peeve). Let him wear various of my sexy underwear, fits and looks great! I have a good time. Ask for back massage, says he doesn't know how to and indeed only soso. 1000 well deserved.

Meet Can at Tuk-Com. We sit at Starbucks and have an awkward chat, he seems a bit shy but okay English. Then staff tell us to leave because they are closing 21:30, that comes just right to invite him to my room. Quickly to bed, slow start but then good activities and slim warm dry. We have a good time. He cums by assisted wanking, on his abdomen and pubes. I touch his cum on abdomen and spread it. I would have thought he wants to take a shower or clean up, but no, it dries and he stays like this over night.

Another round in the morning. I have to compliment him out of my room so I can pack for return to Bangkok. A rare free encounter with a twink in Pattaya, and rare that a boy does not take a shower after cumming on his body, and no shower in the morning either!

A Farang friend peels mango by cutting skin four times from tip to stem into four petal-shaped pieces, which he then peel off and scrapes the little meat from peel with knife. Interesting, will try as well!

Hospitals in Bangkok

Hospitals in Bangkok
A list of hospitals or medical service providers in Bangkok that I have been to, with some comments. All within 5 km of Sathorn/Silom. My focus is on general medicine, vaccinations and STD.

Bangkok Christian Hospital
Would be my recommendation for reasonable price and good service catering to foreigners.

BNH Bangkok Nursing Home
Already from walking past I can tell it will be expensive. But I had a recommendation from a friend for a doctor who works there, so I went once. Reception and interior decoration like a 5-star-hotel. And such are the prices! Later I found that the medicine I got there costs 5 times as in pharmacies elsewhere.

Mission Hospital
Similar to Bangkok Christian Hospital, I went following a recommendation for a doctor.

Chulalongkorn Hospital
With my hand swelling from broken bone (which I didn't know at that time, before going to hospital, previous post https://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2023/08/quiz-what-happened.html), I asked friends where I should go and two recommended Chulalongkorn Hospital. Great views of Lumpini park and former Dusit Thani hotel. Waiting area is (German: wie im Bahnhof, direct translation: like in a railway station, meaning people are coming and going, announcements are made, hubbub/pandemonium/turmoil). There can be 100 people, some on wheelchairs or stretchers, and their family in the waiting room. No complaints about service and prices, I guess the best value for money you can get in central Bangkok.

Thai Travel Clinic
In 2021/22 I went on a vaccination spee from rabies to HPV. HPV vaccine Gardasil 9 is rather expensive, Thai Travel Clinic was the 5,593 THB per injection, three needed. And their website https://www.thaitravelclinic.com is the most clear of all I have come across in the search for cheapest Gardasil 9. They are not out for a sale: I mentioned on two visits to two different doctors that I want to get vaccinated for meningitis (required for Hajj - not on my bucket list -, and recommended for gays after recent outbreaks in California) but they advised against and I followed their advise.

Queen Saovabha Memorial Institute
Snake farm is on their grounds. I was looking for Yellow Fever vaccination. It's in their list, but not available when I asked in person.

Pulse Clinic Silom
I have been going there for my annual or bi-annual (here in the sense of twice per year) STI test. But after discovering that Gardasil 9 is cheaper in Thai Travel Clinic, I went to look for other cheaper places for STI testing.
https://www.pulse-clinic.com/pcr-dna-test-for-14-infections
PCR for 14 Infections (STD Multiplex) Online results 7 days 4450.-

Thai Red Cross
I had been to Thai Red Cross AIDS Research Centre near Lumpini park about 10 years ago, but found registration and waiting areas confusing.

Pripta Tangerine Clinic
I was searching for a cheaper, but still catering to foreigners and in Silom area, alternative to Pulse and came across Pripta in Chamchuri Square. Good views of Rama 4 road and Wat Hua Lamphong.
https://pribta-tangerine.com/en/pribta-home-en/our-service-en/
Multiplex PCR for 11 STIs 2,400

Bumrungrad Hospital
No personal experience, but from reputation and location I would guess that you can get treated cheaper elsewhere. The following quote confirms my assumptions:

Six days later I was on the plane to Bangkok and, although the swelling had reduced, there was still a good deal of pain and redness around the knee. After checking into the Nana Thai Mansion (a good budget hotel at the bottom of Sukhumvit Soi 4) I made a beeline to Bumrungrad Hospital, a place which is notorious for up-selling. I should’ve known better. Why I went there, I’ll never know. Possibly because it’s close to the accommodation area of lower Sukhumvit and is easy to access. When I went up to the 15th floor to check in, the place was jam-packed with Arabs all paying over the top prices for medication they probably didn’t need. After a bit of waiting time, and the scam “blood pressure check,” I was ushered into a ward and attended to by a doctor who seemed clueless. After a bit of prodding around the knee he announced, he was going to prescribe me another week of antibiotics and book me in for an ultrasound scan on the leg. When I inquired as to why I need the ultrasound, I was told I might have thrombosis as well as an infection. The price of the ultrasound was quoted at 9,500 THB. It was then and there that I determined I’d never go back to Bumrungrad Hospital.

A friend does all his medical business in Bumrungrad. He has health insurance, so price is not an issue, and he trusts their placement among the 150 best hospitals of the world.

Rutnin Eye Hospital
No personal experience, but a friend advised against going there because they have been resting on their laurels for decades and you can get same or better service for cheaper elsewhere.

Pharmacies
I do most of my business in those on Rama 4 opposite Chulalongkorn Hospital. A friend is vary of buying medicine in Asia and brings everything from Germany. I have no such concerns, everything I bought was effective. Even the few cases I bought ED medicine on the street in Pattaya, worked fine.

Medical service Thailand vs. Germany
I try to do all my doctor/hospital visits in Thailand. It's cheaper than in Germany and you get served quicker and it's closer. To see a dermatologist, my father had to wait 2 months for an appointment and travel 50 km a few years go (would be the same now)!
