Cupid Massage

Seventy metres from the Phrom Phong platform, on the stretch of Sukhumvit by Soi 24, Cupid Massage puts a nuru card within a minute of the train. The card is the other draw. It opens at ฿1,700 for a 30-minute shower-room session and tops out at ฿3,800 for 90 minutes of nuru gel in the jacuzzi room with an air bed.

It suits someone who wants a short walk, a low starting price for Phrom Phong and a choice of rooms. Skip it if you need a website to check, since the only text found is on a Chinese-language directory page. And note the sample: a 5.0 rating, but from just 19 reviews.

The card covers more than nuru. There are Thai, oil and aroma packages, a body scrub, short shower-room sessions, and two tiers of jacuzzi room, one of them with an air bed for nuru gel. The listing tags it with VIP rooms, showers and body-to-body, and that range lands it in the VIP rooms volume too.

Customers pick a therapist face to face, according to the shop's page on bangkokmsg.com. Google reviewers back that up: several describe the manager introducing the available staff, and one describes being sent the lineup over LINE before booking.

Its rate card lists:

• Short time (Special Package, Shower Room): ฿1,700 for 30 min, ฿1,900 for 45 min
• Thai Special Package: ฿2,200 for 60 min, ฿2,900 for 90 min
• Oil Special Package: ฿2,300 for 60 min, ฿3,000 for 90 min
• Aroma Special Package 60 min: ฿2,400
• Nurugel Special Package: ฿2,500 for 60 min, ฿3,100 for 90 min
• Jacuzzi Room Special Package Course: ฿2,700 for 60 min, ฿3,300 for 90 min
• Boby Scrub: ฿3,000 for 60 min, ฿3,300 for 90 min
• Nurugel Jacuzzi Room + Air Bed: ฿3,200 for 60 min, ฿3,800 for 90 min

An hour of nuru costs ฿2,500; move it into the jacuzzi room with the air bed and it's ฿3,200. That's modest for a shop this close to Phrom Phong, and several reviewers call it cheap. The cheap list has others in this band.

Booking is by LINE or Telegram. No phone number, payment method or language is published, so check how to pay when you message.

The listing's address is 2/12 Sukhumvit Road, Khlong Tan. Its bangkokmsg.com page places it at Sukhumvit 24, one minute from exit 3 of BTS Phrom Phong. The station is 70 metres away. MRT Sukhumvit and BTS Asok are each about 20 minutes on foot.

The door shuts at midnight, about when the last trains run, so an evening session lines up neatly with the ride home. The Phrom Phong district page shows what else is on this side of Sukhumvit.

Cupid Massage fits a first-timer in Phrom Phong: the station is a minute away, the card is clear and the 30-minute session keeps the stakes low. It fits someone who wants nuru with a jacuzzi without paying ฿4,000. It fits less well if you want a long, late night, since it closes at midnight.

Cupid Massage holds a 5.0 Google rating from 19 reviews, all five stars in the recent run.

Three themes recur. Location comes first: several reviewers note it's a minute's walk from BTS Phrom Phong. Price is the second, with a few calling it cheap or good value. The third is the welcome. Reviewers often mention a warm, friendly manager who introduces the staff, and one first-timer says that put them at ease. The rooms get a mention too: one reviewer who took the 90-minute jacuzzi course describes a clean room and a spacious bed.

Several reviews name a therapist, Nisa and Jay among them, and several say they'll be back. There are no complaints among the recent reviews, though 19 is a small sample.
