Couple of placed I recently tried during the day. Sourced from sammy's forum.

520 North Bridge Road #02-01 (E Wellness Spa) - clean room and temperature checked prior to entry.

$50 for 1 HR...

Indeed you are correct Tom, $5 was a good escape. The thing is I've been with these types of guys in Vietnam before without issues. Maybe it was a slow day for them and they took the opportunity to...

300 k +300 k = 600 k.

As previously mentioned there are 3 massage / haircut shops directly opposite Pullman on Nguyen CUTrinh. I only tried one this trip and it was pretty good, but you have to negotiate quite a bit. I...

I checked google maps for the hotel name, but I think the photos are out of date. It was small Viet mini hotel, maybe 50 m down the street on the right hand side. On other visits I had gone with guys...

Found this place, don't think there has been any review so far.

6th Floor Kim Huy Hotel - 10 mins walk from Pullman Hotel. - #220 Nguyen CUTrinh.

Massage / sauna. I went early afternoon around...

Pullman was fine during the day at least. No issues ordering from Wechat and reception would call and ask if it's ok to send your friend up to the room. Never tried at night but I'd imagine not...

Just be careful following the guys on Bui Vien offering girls. I've tried this in the past in many different countries and had no issues, but last week I had a bad experience. Was walking back to the...

Will be in HCMC again from June 3 for 5 days, contact via PM if in town and interested in exploring.

Thanks for your detailed report and thought provoking input on the Yangon scene.

Looks like it eventually paid off in this case, well done. But I can see how frustrating your experiences have been. Approaching random girls on the street is fine in BKK or MNL but in Vietnam you...

Feeling your pain TC. It's not an easy mongering destination by any means. Yes things are possible, but as you are finding out a huge amount of time required.

The good girls on wechat are really...

My experience in Hanoi on wechat in particular is completely different to Saigon.

1) There were actually minimal girls openly advertising on wechat.

2) The very very few obvious ones on Zalo...

I had a one month gold subscription last month without any "safety form".

But I did notice a behavior in that there are lots of messages sent to you when you don't have a paid account. Then after...

Yes you are right they are damn gorgeous, but if you have mongered in those countries, then don't have too high expectation on the Vietnam mongering scene, especially 9 days in Hanoi will be tough....

Ok guys, if you read through this Hanoi section you will get the gist that Hanoi is no monger paradise. That is an understatement!! Geez it was tough to get action here, possible, but not really...

Hi boys,

Heading to Hanoi around June 12 for about 5 days if anyone is around and keen to explore the options.

Very familiar with HCM but quite out of touch with Hanoi these days.

I'd say 69 is very unlikely. As mentioned the service can be quite mechanical, the same routine is standard each time and the girls don't really allow deviations from that.

I did get manage very...

Didn't have a lot of luck with the Bui Vien massage places this year. No gems uncovered and a lot of waste of time / money. Possibly still impacted by the end of Tet and limited supply.

So had to...

For those interested in Airbnb. Rivergate apartments in D4 (10 minutes walk across the bridge from PNL).

Had no issues there, brand new apartment block, lots of apartment choice from different...

Back in Saigon and did quite a bit of research before this trip and tried to uncover some new places. This time, with the help of google translate and some Vietnamese forums, I noticed a new place...

Maybe 1 or 2 doors down from number 40 . Say around number 36? There is a smaller shop, also staffed by girls wearing the sexy uniforms. Not as many as number 40 but they were also reasonably good...

I'm not sure if these places have been mentioned before, but I had very good experience at 2 places directly opposite the Pullman Hotel. Looking at google maps it should be " Nguyen see you Trinh"...

Yes it's not the booking part, its the on site security at most places that would be the issue. Some would likely enforce the "No Viets allowed to stay with foreigner" rule. Also some owners live in...

Another one I remembered: Gold Hotel 3 : 27 Vo Van Kiet St also near the beach. I can't remember exactly what happened here. I went there as soon as it opened around 1 pm. I think the prices were...
