I live on the Tonburi side of the river, and I saw that there is a massage shop called the Shape Club near Wong Wian Yai. It would be more convenient for me than crossing the the river. Can anyone offer any comments?

Thanks

It's ok. The rooms are strange...big and with a spa-type shower at one end and sofa. But maybe they are not all like that. Boys were on the slim and effeminate side...but that was a while back. massgae was ok.

Also on that side of the river, you may wish to try:

Did the above link:

for Bandung Spa not work for you? It has a location map:

I have been there several times and enjoyed some of the boys in the past.

As Sexy T suggests, bus 6 is the best option. If I were you, I would start at Thaksin BTS pier and take the ferry across the river (Bht3?) and walk to Charoen Nakhon Road (the road that runs along the west bank of the river) and wait for bus 6 going left (south). Stay on this bus until you pass under the high Rama 9 bridge approach/ramp and then look out the left window for Rat Burana soi 33. get off and walk on until you cross the small klong. Right opposite you will see Bandung nestled on the klong bank.

I visited Bandung Spa today, and it was fine. It is easy to find if you drive and it has a couple of parking spaces in front. They are having a special right now: body scrub, aroma, and a relaxing bath for 900 baht.

Which guy did you have for massage? I like Chai and Aum. Smart Bank had a special like you describe but that was Bht1,100.
