What’s better than a rose on your piano? Tulips on your organ. I don’t know if Tulip massage is any better than Rose’s but I do know enough to report on both of these legendary Bangkok venues here.
Tulip is an oily massage parlor located right on the main Sukhumvit thoroughfare in Bangkok. Situated under one of the exits of the elevated Thong Lo BTS station the place doesn’t look like much. From the outside it is like any other regular massage parlor in the country. There aren’t even any women sitting outside beckoning customers in most of the time.
Tulip massage in Bangkok
The interior isn’t any different. It is a decidedly run of the mill type of place. It has its little lobby along with some private rooms containing beds and showers. The place is relatively clean by Bangkok standards but it definitely wouldn’t win any Better Homes and Gardens awards.
The women on staff at Tulip might be described in a similar way by most men. The dozen or so Thai women who work at Tulip are for the most part average in looks and in their thirties. Some are quite chubby. They don’t wear particularly revealing or sexy clothes either.
Inside Tulip
So why is Tulip so well known by so many regular punters in Bangkok? To put it simply the level of service and enthusiasm offered at Tulip is much higher than what is provided at most other massage parlors in the city and the country more generally. That seems to be the key.
Once in the room the women who work at Tulip are known to really let their hair down and get into their work. From mutual showering in the beginning of each session to the fond farewells they bid to customers on the way out they are known for this sort of behavior.
Services and prices
For the most part the women at Tulip do away with any pretensions of actually massages. So they don’t typically deliver any mediocre body rubs. They just get down to business and seem to really aim to pleasure their customers.
The Tulip ladies are also known for their skill. From oral to full service they have developed a reputation for being truly great at what they do. Some gals in particular like Golf and Leena have been at their jobs for years and really seem to have developed their abilities. In certain circles they are talked about the way baseball fans discuss Babe Ruth.
Finally there is the fact that A level service is offered by most ladies at Tulip in some cases very enthusiastically. At Tulip there is no extra charge for this above and beyond service which is different from places like the previously reviewed Bamboo which tacks on a 500 Baht fee.
Although the level of service is higher at Tulip than at most other places of the type in the city the prices are more or less standard for the industry. A ninety minute session is 600 Baht ($19 USD) and the standard tip given by customers to the service providers is 1500 Baht ($48 USD). Other sessions are also available at different prices. The tip amount usually stay about the same. Three-and-a-half stars.

Hi Rockit, just so I can be clear in my mind, the tip amount is agreed upon with the service provider before the fun begins, and that amount varies from a base price of 1500?
At oily massage parlors in Bangkok the price is either given all at once or less commonly in the form of a house fee plus an expected tip. The expected tips are normally 500 for hand service, 1000 for oral, or 1500 for everything. Sometimes there is an additional 500 Baht fee for A+ service. On top of of that there is a house fee of 300 to 500 Baht. All told the usual price for a massage with full service at an oily massage parlors is usually right around 2000 Baht. At Tulip for example for 90 minutes with full service the total cost would be 2100 Baht. There is normally no negotiation as the market is more or less set in the city. Cheers.
Rockit’s rundown is spot on. I had a fairly regular oily provider near Nana where the house collected a nominal fee for the above board massage depending on time 1 vs 2 hour. My provider, via Line, let me know she expected 1,000 for covered FS. That was probably two years ago.
Cheers to you both.
For additional context, I have a regular lady, mid 30s, cute, affectionate and great body who gives great massage and FS, 2 hours, and I hand her 3k with no idea how much goes to the house because I like her. It’s been the same amount for overnights with her but then I’m also paying for a room.
What are the standard services offered by tulip??
DFK, CIM, BBBJ, A-level??
Does tulip offer multiple pops/multiple shots??
I don’t know that there is any standard service. It probably depends on the interaction between the customers and the service providers. I imagine that most customers get uncovered oral and covered full service. Many of the women on staff also offer A-level service. In general all the ladies allow customers to get off as many times as possible in the allotted time. Cheers.
Back at Tulip for the second time this year. Yes, the girls aren’t as young or cute as many of the other places in Bangkok, but the service is something else, especially for those of us a little older. Earlier in the spring I was with Mickey and today I was with View. Wow. As soon as we got in the room and the door was closed, View got on her knees and began sucking. I was hot and needed a shower, but it could wait for this! It wasn’t long before we were on the bed and she was rimming me, and for a moment thought I was going to pop right there. And that’s all before the shower, which we eventually got to. Amazing A level service and she moaned with a fervor that got me pretty wild. I’ve already made another booking and although I’ve yet to try it, I’m wondering if she might be up for water sports. If so, it’ll be a first for me, but this is one of the few places where I think one of the girls might say yes, and since I’m curious…
Thanks for the detailed report P. Cheers!
Great report P. I definitely want to check that out when I go there.
Did you end up trying watersports?
in Oct 2024, what is current price? Is there any updated picture of the menu and girls?
The current price is 2100 Baht for a 90 minute session. I haven’t seen any updated pictures of menus or providers. Cheers.
