Sukhumvit MRT 站附近的按摩與夜生活

Sukhumvit MRT sits under the Asok intersection, with the Asok BTS pin about 130 metres away, in the middle of one of the busiest nightlife stretches in Bangkok. The Soi Cowboy map pin is about 60 metres from the stored station pin. Around it, over a hundred massage shops, about a dozen go-go bars, a handful of soapy bath houses and a few gentlemen's clubs spread across the Asok, Nana and Phrom Phong sides of Sukhumvit.

Two kinds of night

Soi Cowboy and the go-go bars run on evening hours, opening at seven and closing at two or half past. Reviews are sharply mixed. Some visitors praise particular bars for fair drinks and no pressure, but others report drinks ordered onto their bill without asking, a sudden entry fee, rude staff, and in one case a card charge far larger than the drinks consumed. Keep your own count and check every bill before paying.

The massage shops keep longer hours, most opening between nine in the morning and noon and closing at midnight or one, with a few running to two. The nearest are around 200 metres away on Ratchadaphisek and Asok Montri and by Asok BTS, with larger clusters further out on Soi 18, 20 and 22 and Soi 33, and a few on Soi 7/1. Reviewers praise clean rooms, a friendly manager who shows the options on a tablet, and good jacuzzi rooms. Complaints include unfriendly staff, a shop that never opened for a booking, a promised discount that was not honoured, and price changes after arrival.

For bath houses, the closest are on Soi 23 and near the station, with others on Soi 11 and Soi 33. More are covered in the Bangkok soapy guide.
