Note that a lot of the freelancers won't do long time. Also the prices are based on the girls' interest in you and is up for negotiation.

			==Tips==
			Tips for Navigating Thermae

			===Know the Setup===
			Thermae isn’t a typical [[bar]]. You’ll walk downstairs into a dimly lit space ringed by freelancers, with guys strolling in circles to scout potential partners. If it feels unusual at first, don’t worry—that’s exactly how it’s supposed to work.

			===Timing Matters===
			The best selection often appears between 8:00–9:30 PM, when the place is buzzing. After 10 or 11, a lot of the top picks might be gone. If you’re looking for a deal or don’t mind “leftovers,” you can try rolling in near closing, but be prepared for a hit-or-miss lineup.

			===Short Time vs. Long Time===
			[[Short Time]] ([[ST]]): Typically means one session (sometimes up to an hour or so). Expect around 2,500–3,000 THB as a starting point.

			[[Long Time]] ([[LT]]): Often considered overnight or at least multiple hours/shots. The usual rate hovers between 5,000–7,000 THB, but you need to clarify what “long” really means so you’re not cut loose early.

			===Set Expectations Upfront===
			Don’t be shy about discussing what you want—whether it’s a particular activity or how long you want them to stay. If you wait until you’re back at the hotel, misunderstandings (and disappointment) can happen fast.

			===Watch Out for Overpaying===
			New visitors sometimes get quoted inflated prices (like 7,000 THB for ST). If it seems too high, politely decline or negotiate. Many travelers prefer not to haggle, but it’s common practice. A firm, friendly approach can save you a few thousand baht.

			===Dress Respectably===
			Shorts and T-shirts aren’t illegal, but looking like you just came from the beach can hurt your vibe. You don’t need a suit—just aim for neat and clean. You’ll probably get a warmer reception (and fairer quotes).

			===Check Hotel Policies===
			If your hotel has strict guest rules, be prepared. Some spots require you to register your companion or pay a joiner fee. Either way, lock your valuables in the room safe if you’re bringing someone back.

			===Don’t Expect Uniform Service===
			Each freelancer has her own style, boundaries, and level of enthusiasm. Some may be fantastic, others might treat it purely as a transaction. That’s just the nature of the game—no two experiences are alike.

			===Consider Alternatives===
			If you’re after a higher-end or more predictable experience, there are plenty of [[Bangkok Soapy Massages\|soapy massage parlors]] and [[Bangkok Gentlemen's Clubs\|Gentlemen's Clubs]]. They often have clear pricing structures and curated lineups—though you’ll likely pay more for the “premium” feel.

			Legend has it, back in the 80s, most bars had to close by midnight so drunk customers and bargirls would hang out at this cafe.

	The café exudes an old-school vibe, with dim lighting, simple wooden furnishings, and a somewhat mysterious atmosphere. Despite its age, it has managed to maintain a steady clientele, a mix of expats, locals, and curious tourists. The ambiance is casual and unpretentious, offering a stark contrast to the more modern and glitzy establishments that have sprung up around Sukhumvit.

			The Thermae Café in [[Bangkok]] is a unique and storied establishment that has garnered a somewhat legendary status among locals and tourists alike. Located in the heart of Bangkok, near Sukhumvit Road, it has been operating since the 1960s, making it one of the city's oldest bars.

			Originally, the Thermae Café was a popular spot for American GIs during the Vietnam War, providing a place for relaxation and socialization. Over the decades, it has evolved but retained its nostalgic charm, becoming a piece of living history in Bangkok's dynamic nightlife scene.

			The café exudes an old-school vibe, with dim lighting, simple wooden furnishings, and a somewhat mysterious atmosphere. Despite its age, it has managed to maintain a steady clientele, a mix of expats, locals, and curious tourists. The ambiance is casual and unpretentious, offering a stark contrast to the more modern and glitzy establishments that have sprung up around Sukhumvit.

			Situated conveniently near the Asok BTS Station and Sukhumvit MRT Station, Thermae Café is easily accessible for both locals and tourists. Its central location makes it a convenient stop for a night out in one of Bangkok’s most vibrant districts.

			With the rise of the internet and online forums, Thermae's allure reached even more visitors. Many people come to Bangkok for its famous red-light districts, and Thermae remains a top choice, offering a more budget-friendly alternative to [[gogo bars]]. For those who prefer meeting women outside the bar scene, there are also thriving online communities.

			Thermae is situated on Sukhumvit Road, one of Bangkok's busiest tourist areas, in the basement of the Ruamchitt Plaza Hotel. It's a favorite among travelers, and many end up taking a freelancer from Thermae to the hotel's rooms upstairs for some fun. If the Ruamchitt Plaza Hotel isn't to your liking, the Sofitel Bangkok next door is another option. The bar has a laid-back atmosphere where you can relax at the bar or a table. The staff is friendly and fluent in English, and the girls are approachable, enjoying conversation and drinks.

			From around 8:00 pm and into the night, freelancer girls gather both inside and outside Thermae, waiting for potential customers. The place gets busy, especially with Asian clientele. While some girls might prefer Asian men, money is a significant factor, and men of all nationalities visit, providing a variety of experiences.

			'''Important: the girls outside of Thermae and along the Sukhumvit road are pretty much all ladyboys. So beware.'''

			Current prices are around 3000 for short time and around 6000 for long time. Note that a lot of the freelancers won't do long time. Also the prices are based on the girls' interest in you and is up for negotiation.
