バンコク Asokのソープ（MP）

Asok is where the BTS Sukhumvit line meets the MRT at Sukhumvit station, and the nearest soapy massage places here sit roughly 150 metres from its station pins in a straight line. From the station, the side streets do most of the work: Soi Sukhumvit 18, 20 and 23 each have more than one address, and others appear on Soi 10, 16, 19 and 31 and on Thanon Asok Montri. Nana BTS is about 330 metres from the closest venues on its side, so the map coverage of the two stations overlaps.

Picking a time

Hours here split into two broad groups. Most places open at 10 am or 11 am, while a few wait until 1 pm or 2 pm. Closing times run from 10 pm to 2 am, with midnight the most common finish. If you are heading out after midnight, a handful on Soi 16, Soi 18, Soi 23 and Soi 10 post 1 am or 2 am closes; anything earlier in the evening leaves you plenty of choice.

Most venues around Asok are massage shops offering soapy as one of their services, with only a few running purely as bath houses. That matters if you are comparing with Bangkok's soapy massage areas such as Huai Khwang, where nearly every place is a dedicated bath house. Phrom Phong, one stop east, has far more choice if Asok feels thin.

Several reviews on these venue pages mention clean rooms and friendly reception. The complaints are worth reading too: one visitor reports cash going missing, another describes a billing dispute that brought in the tourist police, and one Soi 23 review mentions trouble communicating at the front desk. Keep valuables close and agree on the session before you start.
