Thonglor ONE Massage

Thonglor ONE keeps its whole card at ฿3,000 or less, a short walk from the Skytrain. It starts at ฿1,800 for a 60-minute massage session and tops out at ฿3,000 for two hours of its outside service. In between come Thai, oil, lotion, aroma and gel massage, each at 60 or 90 minutes, none above ฿2,500.

It suits a man on his own near BTS Thong Lo who wants an hour at a mid-range price and doesn't need the night to run late: the door shuts at 23:30. Skip it if you're a woman or a couple; one reviewer says they were told the shop doesn't massage women. Google files it under erotic massage, and reviewers often mention friendly, English-speaking staff.

The menu is a list of textures more than treatments. Thai massage, oil, lotion, aroma and gel each come at 60 or 90 minutes, with a plain 'massage session' at the bottom and a two-hour option at the top. The website, in Japanese and English, doesn't say whether this is a nuru house or a happy ending shop; Google's category is erotic massage.

The listing gives the address as Thong Lo 1 Alley, Khlong Tan Nuea. The website adds that the shop moved in January 2020 to the Soi 53 side, next to the entrance of the SALIL Hotel. Check the map pin against that note before you set out.

Reviewers mention a friendly front desk, and several praise therapists who speak good English. One older review says the rooms needed an upgrade.

Its rate card lists:

• Massage session 60 min: ฿1,800
• Thai Massage 60 min: ฿2,100
• Oil Massage 60 min: ฿2,200
• Lotion Massage 60 min: ฿2,200
• Aroma Massage 60 min: ฿2,300
• Gel Massage 60 min: ฿2,300
• Thai Massage 90 min: ฿2,300
• Oil Massage 90 min: ฿2,400
• Lotion Massage 90 min: ฿2,400
• Aroma Massage 90 min: ฿2,500
• Gel Massage 90 min: ฿2,500
• Outside service Massage 90 min: ฿2,500
• 2 hour Massage 120 min: ฿2,800
• Outside service Massage 120 min: ฿3,000

The extra half hour is cheap here: ฿200 on every style. The card doesn't explain what separates the ฿1,800 'massage session' from the named styles, or what 'outside service' involves, so ask. No booking channel or payment method is listed.

An hour under ฿2,500 qualifies it for comparison with the cheap list.

BTS Thong Lo is about 330 m away, roughly a five-minute walk, which matches the website's own estimate. BTS Phrom Phong and BTS Ekkamai are each around 17 to 18 minutes on foot.

Google lists the hours as 11:00 to 23:30, every day. A session that starts by 22:00 ends in time for the last train. The Thonglor district page lists the shops around it, including those open later.

Men travelling alone who want a fair price, a choice of oils and a short walk from the Skytrain. One reviewer says the shop explained that it doesn't offer massages to women, which rules it out for couples; the couples list is the place for them. Anyone wanting a long night should look at the late-night list instead.

Thonglor ONE Massage holds a 4.3 Google rating from 33 reviews, many of them several years old. Google reviewers often mention friendly staff and therapists who speak good English, and several name the therapist they saw. One recent reviewer arrived near closing time and still praises both the front desk and the masseuse.

The criticism is scattered and old. One reviewer says the shop doesn't offer massages to women, and another, years ago, wished the rooms were upgraded. One finds it closed in the daytime, though Google now lists an 11:00 opening.
