The Moon Lake Spa

The Moon Lake Spa is a long way past the end of the Sukhumvit line. It sits in Pak Kret, Nonthaburi, out by Muang Thong Thani, and its website presents it as one of seven branches of the Sweet Rooms BKK chain. The card is short: aroma massage at ฿2,000 for an hour or ฿2,500 for 90 minutes, with a ฿500 whirlpool jacuzzi add-on.

It suits someone who lives or works out near Muang Thong Thani and wants a late finish close by: the door stays open until 02:00. Skip it if value is your first test. Its Google rating is 3.8 from 13 reviews, and several reviewers call it expensive for what they got.

The address is 55/28 The Connect 2, Chaeng Wattana-Pak Kret 33, in Pak Kret District, Nonthaburi. According to its website, this is the Muang Thong Thani branch of Sweet Rooms BKK, a chain of seven. The website markets to gentlemen, with talk of an 'exclusive service' and 'freshly prepared' treats, and it says LINE booking is handled branch by branch.

The listing types it as a happy ending massage shop, with oil massage and a jacuzzi among its services. The website adds a caution worth noting: the jacuzzi add-on is only available at some branches of the chain. Ask this branch before you count on it.

Its rate card lists:

• Aroma massage 60 min: ฿2,000
• Aroma massage 90 min: ฿2,500
• Whirlpool jacuzzi add-on (no duration listed): ฿500

The extra half hour costs ฿500, and so does the jacuzzi. The add-on has no length attached on the card, so ask how long it runs and whether it is available at this branch.

The website lists three promotions: 5% off for a Google review, ฿100 off per person when booking as a pair, and 10% off in your birthday month. Payment is cash only on the listing. Agree the full price, add-ons included, before the session starts; one reviewer says they were asked for a large extra payment once inside. For other shops with a jacuzzi or a bigger room, see the VIP rooms list.

LINE is the booking channel, and the listing says walk-ins are accepted. Google gives the hours as 12:00 to 02:00, every day, which puts it on the late-night list. One reviewer says there is no Chinese-language option, and another asks whether they can book in Chinese, so English or Thai is the safer bet on LINE.

The nearest station is MRT Si Rat, about 2,240 m away, which works out at a 36-minute walk. In practice this is a taxi or ride-hail address, and a ride back after 02:00 is the only way home for most visitors.

If you're based in central Bangkok, there's little reason to come this far. The Sukhumvit volume and the near BTS and MRT list gather shops a few minutes from a platform, many with cards in the same price range.

The Moon Lake Spa holds a 3.8 Google rating from only 13 reviews, split sharply between five stars and one. The five-star reviews are mostly brief: 'great', 'good service', 'high quality', with a couple praising friendly staff and a good atmosphere.

Price is the recurring complaint. Several reviewers call it expensive or say the service didn't match the price, and one says foreigners are charged around twice what locals pay. One reviewer reports being asked for a large extra payment during the session. Another notes there was no Chinese-language option. With so few reviews, none of this is settled, but it is reason enough to agree the total before you begin.
