Booking In-Hotel Massage Services: How to Arrange a Private Session

[aiden15632]

Hello everyone,
I’m interested in understanding how to arrange for a massage lady to come to my hotel for a massage and possibly additional services. Specifically, I want to know the process and considerations involved. Here’s what I’m looking to find out:

1. Initial Contact and Arrangement:
   • How to Make the Request: After finding a massage lady at a salon or parlor that you like, what’s the best way to ask if she can come to your hotel? Should you speak directly to the girl, the boss, or both?
     
   • Procedure: What is the typical procedure for arranging such a service? Is it necessary to book in advance, or can it be arranged on short notice?
     
2. Costs and Negotiations:
   • Cost Estimates: How much might it cost to have a massage lady come to your hotel? Are there any special rates or packages for this kind of service, or does it generally involve a premium?
     
   • Negotiation: What should you expect in terms of pricing and what factors might influence the cost? Are there specific services that might be offered at a higher rate?
     
3. Additional Services:
   • Service Details: What kind of services can typically be expected when arranging for an in-hotel massage? Can it include extras like showering together, body-to-body massage, etc.?
     
   • Special Arrangements: Are there any particular protocols or considerations to be aware of when arranging for additional services?
     
4. Past Experiences:
   • Recommendations: If you’ve had similar experiences, what were the key takeaways? How did you manage the booking, and were there any challenges or surprises?
     
   • Finding the Right Person: If you had a positive experience with a massage lady in the past but couldn’t find her again, how did you go about locating her or similar service providers?
     

For those who have arranged for in-hotel massage services, any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated. I’d love to hear about your experiences, how you managed the arrangements, and any tips for ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience.
Thank you in advance for your help!

In January, I visited a massage parlor on Soi 13/2, though the exact name escapes me. Here’s a summary of the experience:

Service Details:

Initial Request: I asked for an oil massage and inquired if the service could be provided in my hotel room. The response was positive, with no issues regarding the request.
Costs:

Bar Fine: 300 THB
Massage: 600 THB
Experience:

Therapist Arrival: The therapist arrived at my hotel within an hour of the request.
Massage Quality: The massage was excellent and included a happy ending in all positions. The quality of the massage and the additional services were both very satisfying.
Long-Term (LT) Services:

Cost for LT: 1500 THB
Availability: The option for long-term services was available, adding flexibility for extended engagements.
Summary:
The overall experience was highly satisfactory, combining a quality massage with enjoyable extras. The availability of long-term services provided an option for more flexible arrangements. Given the positive experience, I would consider repeating the service if it aligns with my future preferences.

Reflection on Massage Experiences and Long-Term (LT) Services
Concerns with LT Services:
When considering long-term (LT) services, there is often a perceived trade-off between the attractiveness of the provider and the quality of the massage. In establishments offering "sexy massages," particularly in areas like Soi 13/2, Soi Honey, and around the corner of Buakhaow near the Oasis A-Go-Go and 3rd Road, the emphasis can sometimes shift towards the visual appeal rather than the effectiveness of the massage itself.

Experience Details:
During a recent visit to a venue on Soi Buakhaow, at the corner of Oasis A-Go-Go and 3rd Road, I encountered a scenario that highlighted this concern. The massage provider, whom I had picked up from the Medium 372003 show, explicitly communicated her preference: "I don’t like massage; I like bum, bum very long." This candid statement indicated a focus on extended, personalized services rather than delivering a thorough massage.

Outcome:
Despite the initial reservations about the quality of the massage, the LT session proved to be satisfactory. The extended duration and personalized nature of the service ensured that the overall experience met expectations, even if the massage itself was not the primary focus.

Summary:
For those considering LT services, it is important to recognize the potential trade-offs between physical appeal and massage quality. While some might prioritize visual attractiveness, others may find value in a more extended and personalized engagement. In my experience, the LT session delivered a gratifying overall experience, even though the quality of the massage was secondary to the broader service.

Approaching the Request
Express Your Interest Clearly:

If you’ve had a positive experience and enjoyed the masseuse’s technique and personality, let her know directly.
You might say something like, “I really enjoyed the massage and would love to have another one later at my hotel. Would you be available?”
Be Respectful and Polite:

Approach the subject respectfully to ensure a smooth conversation.
A polite request demonstrates your appreciation for her service and can lead to a positive response.
Understand the Norms:

In Pattaya, such requests are quite common and generally accepted.
Some establishments handle these requests formally through their management, while others may arrange it more privately.
What to Expect
Availability:

Many masseuses are open to the idea of providing additional services at your hotel.
A direct and respectful request is usually met with a positive response, especially if you’ve had a good prior experience.
Payment Arrangements:

Be prepared to discuss the payment for both the bar fine and the massage itself.
Typically, you would negotiate a fee for the service, which may include a bar fine or an additional charge for the massage.
Discretion and Privacy:

Arrangements might be formalized through the massage shop or handled discreetly.
Respect the privacy of both the masseuse and yourself during these arrangements.
Summary
Asking a masseuse to continue her service at your hotel is a common practice in Pattaya. If you’ve enjoyed her massage and feel comfortable, making a polite request is usually well-received. The process involves discussing availability and agreeing on payment terms, and it’s generally handled smoothly given the local customs.

When considering hiring a massage lady for an extended period in Pattaya, it’s crucial to understand the typical costs and components involved. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

1. Bar Fine
The bar fine is a fee paid to the massage parlor or establishment to allow the lady to leave the venue and provide services elsewhere. This fee varies based on the establishment and the lady’s popularity.

Standard Bar Fine: Generally ranges from 1,000 to 2,500 Baht for short-term arrangements such as a few hours or an overnight stay.
Long-Term Arrangements: For extended periods, such as several days, the bar fine can be higher, typically between 2,500 and 5,000 Baht or more, depending on the venue and the lady’s standing.
2. Additional Costs
These are the fees paid directly to the lady for her time and services beyond the bar fine. These costs are usually negotiated with the lady and vary based on her experience, appearance, and the nature of the services provided.

Hourly or Daily Rates: Expect to pay between 1,500 to 3,000 Baht per hour or per day. Rates can be higher for premium services or more experienced providers.
Extended Time (LT): For longer engagements, such as a few days, the total cost is typically negotiated. It generally ranges from 10,000 to 20,000 Baht for several days, covering both the bar fine and the cost of her services.
Summary
Short-Term (a few hours or overnight):
Bar fine: 1,000 to 2,500 Baht
Additional cost: 1,500 to 3,000 Baht
Long-Term (several days):

Daily rate: 1,500 to 3,000 Baht
Total cost: 10,000 to 20,000 Baht for a few days
Tips for a Smooth Arrangement
Negotiate Clearly: Discuss and agree on all costs, including the bar fine and any additional fees, before finalizing the arrangement. Ensure there is clarity on what services are included in the agreed amount.
Understand Services: Make sure you know exactly what services are included and any potential extra charges to avoid misunderstandings.
Check Reviews: If available, review feedback or ratings about the lady’s services to ensure a positive experience.
Respect and Professionalism: Maintain a respectful attitude and professionalism throughout the process, which can contribute to a more enjoyable and trouble-free experience.
By understanding these costs and negotiating clearly, you can ensure a positive and satisfying experience while hiring a massage lady for an extended period in Pattaya.
