Melrose Plaza

On the Thonburi side of the river, on a main road lined with car dealers and shopping centres, Melrose Plaza keeps its lights on until four in the morning. Google files it as an erotic massage venue, with a bar, a pool hall and a restaurant under the same roof.

That mix is the point. Its Google reviews talk more about the food than the massage: authentic Chinese dishes, promotions, plenty of parking. It suits someone on the western side of the city who wants a late night that starts at a table and a three-minute walk from the MRT. Skip it if you want a published menu or recent reviews: there are no prices on record, and most of the reviews are four to six years old.

Google lists Melrose Plaza under erotic massage, with Bar, Pool hall and Restaurant as additional categories, and this guide files it as a soapy house. The listing says walk-ins are taken. It doesn't publish a services list, languages, payment methods or a booking channel, and there's no website.

The reviews mostly describe the restaurant side. Several mention good food, one names a pork dish with lime sauce, and others note promotions and discounts. One praises a clean, spacious space, another the music, and another the parking. One review from six years ago asks about new staff at the massage parlour, which confirms there is one.

No prices are published anywhere we could find, for the massage or the restaurant. Ask for the menu at the door, and settle the price and the length of any session before you agree to it. One old review mentions a promotion of three hours with one hour free, without saying what it applied to. For venues that publish their rates, the under ฿2,500 list is a useful comparison.

The address is 654 Phet Kasem Road, Bang Wa, Phasi Charoen. MRT Phasi Charoen is about 190 metres away, roughly a three-minute walk. MRT Bang Khae is 19 minutes on foot and MRT Phet Kasem 48 about 23.

The hours run from noon to 04:00, every day. The underground stops around midnight, which leaves four hours when a taxi is the only way home. Several reviewers mention ample parking, so driving is an option. The late-night list collects other doors that stay open this late, and the near BTS and MRT list the ones close to a station.

Melrose Plaza holds a 4.0 Google rating from 128 reviews, but the review text that's available is old: most of it is four to six years old, and the newest is a year old.

The pattern is clear, and it's about food. Google reviewers often mention delicious food, one calling it authentic Chinese and another naming the pork with lime sauce. Several mention promotions or discounts, and reviewers also note good service, clean and spacious rooms, comfortable tables, relaxing music and plenty of parking. A few reviews are jokes, and one asks about new massage staff.

There's almost nothing in the available reviews about the massage itself, and no recurring complaints. Given the age of the record, it's worth checking that the restaurant and bar still run as described.
