The Best Relax Massage

The Best Relax doesn't have a door to walk through. According to its website it is an outcall-only service, sending therapists out from Thong Lo to homes, apartments and hotels, 24 hours a day. Its card reads like a day spa's: Thai massage at ฿900 an hour, oil at ฿1,000, and a long list of foot, deep tissue and aromatherapy options up to three hours.

It suits a hotel guest around Sukhumvit who wants a straightforward massage in the room at any hour. Skip it if you want a shop to visit, or a guaranteed traditional spa tone: one reviewer was put off by extra services offered during booking. Google reviewers who booked outcall mostly praise punctual, professional therapists.

The website describes an outcall-only service to your home, apartment or hotel, with therapist photos on the site to choose from. The listing gives a base on Thong Lo Soi 5, but there is no shop to visit, and one reviewer warns that the Google pin is in the wrong place. Treat the address as a starting point for the taxi fee, not a destination.

The Google category is erotic massage, though the menu itself is conventional: Thai, oil, aromatherapy, deep tissue, foot, and head, neck and shoulder massage, plus a four-hands option. The listing gives Chinese as a language spoken.

Its rate card lists:

• Thai Traditional Massage: ฿900 for 60 min, ฿1,100 for 90 min, ฿1,300 for 120 min, ฿1,800 for 180 min
• Oil Massage: ฿1,000 for 60 min, ฿1,200 for 90 min, ฿1,500 for 120 min, ฿2,300 for 180 min
• Aromatherapy/Coconut Oil Massage: ฿1,200 for 60 min, ฿1,500 for 90 min, ฿1,800 for 120 min, ฿2,500 for 180 min
• Deep Tissue Massage: ฿1,300 for 60 min, ฿1,600 for 90 min, ฿1,900 for 120 min, ฿2,600 for 180 min
• Foot Massage: ฿1,100 for 60 min, ฿1,400 for 90 min, ฿1,700 for 120 min, ฿2,400 for 180 min
• Head, Neck & Shoulder: ฿1,300 for 90 min, ฿1,600 for 120 min, ฿2,200 for 180 min
• Four Hands Massage: ฿3,000 for 60 min, ฿3,300 for 90 min

On top of the card comes a taxi fee, which the website says depends on your distance from Thong Lo. Ask for it when you book, along with the total. At ฿900 for an hour of Thai massage, the card starts low; the under ฿2,500 list collects other low cards. The four-hands lines also place it among the four-hands shops.

The listing gives LINE, WhatsApp and Telegram for bookings, and the website adds WeChat. Several Google reviewers describe easy booking and a therapist who arrived on time. Before you confirm, settle three things: the service and length from the card, the taxi fee to your address, and the total.

One recent reviewer says her husband was offered extra services during booking that she considered inappropriate for a professional massage. If you want only what is on the card, say so plainly when you book.

The listed base is Thong Lo Soi 5, Khlong Tan Nuea, about eight minutes on foot from BTS Thong Lo, with BTS Phrom Phong about 17 minutes away. Hotels around the Thonglor district and Phrom Phong should carry the smallest taxi fee; anywhere further pays more.

It suits a guest who wants a massage at 3am without leaving the room, anyone curious about a four-hands session, and anyone who prefers a day-spa menu at day-spa prices. For a shop with a door and a room of its own, the late-night list is the better guide.

The Best Relax Massage holds a 3.9 Google rating from 16 reviews, and they divide sharply.

The positive reviews mostly come from outcall customers. Reviewers often mention professional, respectful therapists, easy booking and on-time arrival, and one couple booked together at their hotel. Several name individual therapists and praise their skill; one three-star reviewer still describes a patient therapist who focused on sore shoulders.

The low scores are a mix. One reviewer says the Google pin is in the wrong place, which matters little for an outcall service but explains some confusion. Another one-star review says only 'horrible'. The most detailed complaint, four months old, says extra services were offered during booking that the reviewer found inappropriate, and advises families looking for a traditional spa to look elsewhere.
