Ho Chi Minh City - General Info

[Eboniman]

Really enjoyed my first trip to HCMC. Will definitely return. I'll just share info as it panned out for me. Some instances I played newbie to see what would happen. Other times I for real didn't know how a place worked.

Dai Nam Hotel: showed up here about 1 am I think. Kinda a maze to get to the massage spot but the desk guy will direct you. Pick a service from the list. The one I chose was 290 k. I can't remember if this was the cheapest or not. This was non VIP and those were double the price and more. Locker room, keep cash and phone in the little shower bag they give you. So anyway, locker room, shower, lounging area where they give you water and a plate of fruit. A guy offers foot massage which I decline. They take me to massage room and a girl showed up. I wasn't offered a chance to pick. Massage and on the flip she goes right to HJ. Dang that feels pretty nice. She asks how much you tip? I say 300 k. She says that's too low. But she doesn't stop HJ. I told her I could possible give more depending on how well she took care of me. Was taking me longer to finish so she goes back and forth from HJ and BBBJ. Gave her 600 k after she allowed CIM.

Hai Son Hotel: walk into the hotel lobby, take the elevator (on your left) to the 6th floor. I had a line up of (only 3 girls). I chose the youngest and most attractive to me. Can't remember if I paid before or after session (300 k). Anyway after choosing girl I'm taken to locker room to undress. All my stuff in the locker but kept my cash with me. Shower and a guy leads me downstairs to a private room. 5 minutes later my chosen girl shows up. Decent massage and on the flip the negotiation starts. She asks how much tip? I offer 300 k (equal to the price of massage). She wants 1 million (for FS). 700 K with HJ, BBBJ, DATY, FIV. I was kinda pissed because she kept stopping during the BJ. She said she was worried about CIM. Finally I guess she was like okay let me stop playing around and took care of business. Pretty, good skills but keep stopping. I suppose I'd return to this place but choose a different girl. Interesting enough, only 3 girls were in the line up but on my way out I noticed like 20 pairs of girls shoes outside the girls locker room.

MissSaigon bar: google maps is listing several of these with similar name. I'm talking about the bar on bui vien. Great spot to people watch, dance and drink. Good mix of working and nonworking girls. Ended up pulling a great looking girl next door type. 1. 2 million and she didn't say no to anything. Stayed about 2. 5 hours. She initially asked for 2 million.

Apocalypse Now: showed up here on a Sunday about 9:30. Completely dead, I thought it was closed. Doorman says its too early and come back after 11. I returned on a different night (after 11). Plenty of girls. The girls are prettier than I saw in other clubs / bars. Also seemed way more business like. Straight to the point. First couple ones I talked to wouldn't budge from 3 million. Never pulled anything from here. I just didn't want to pay that.

Vien Dong Hotel: I never got a massage here. Online the rooms looked nice and I was going to get a room. At the front desk I asked about guest policy. I was told the law says no guest. Booking a separate room for the girl was an option. I declined and did not get a room here.

(letter) see central hotel: stopped in to look at the rooms. At $20, they look great. The guy says they are extremely loud at night. He said no guests are "admitted" after 10 pm. My thought was if your hotel is non guest friendly taking the girl here would be an option. After the session you can return to your regular hotel for a good / quiet nights sleep.

Hot Toc: there are 3 right next to each other at 48,40 and 32 Nguyen see you trinh. These are directly across the street from pullman Saigon centre hotel. I found them just walking around. Didn't try because I sweaty and didn't feel comfortable. After shower I returned and they were closed. I want to say it was about 10 pm.

Massage shops: like Thailand, massage shops are up and down every street. Girls will stop you and say anything from 150 k to 300 k for an hour. Depending on starting price I was able to leave happy for total 500 k. Never more than 600 k with BBBJ.

For free is available. I was approached by several girls. (shop owners, servers, etc) I didn't monger as much as I maybe wouldn't have trying to seal the deal with them. Several visits and right when I was leaving they all came around and was ready to do something. I never say my true leaving date. Sometimes this hurts and / or helps me. Normal girls may slow their pace thinking they have more time. Working girls give better service thinking they could have a repeat customer.

Didn't make it to Bennys or the further outlying spots that are supposed to be less expensive. I'll have to read more to get a better understanding of locations and abbreviations this forum uses.

Just got back to sg. My WeChat isn't working and I remember there was a massage at home place that seemed legit. Think it ran from binh thanh. Anyone got any leads?

I want to echo what Fredrick SG wrote a few posts below me--had the most fun / luck just meeting random normal people.

I went to a massage place in Tan Phong, a few min south of the main city. Was 400 k entrance fee, got to choose out of a lineup. Girl gave a lazy massage for 5 minutes then asked for 1 m tip for FS. CBJ, CFS. Nothing overly special or exciting, but it did the trick. Would not repeat just due to distance and price. Girl was maybe a 6-7/10 and friendly enough but meh.

I also tried 111 b (or something like that on NPK--chose out of a lineup and after the usual patdown with wipe, she began a BBBJCIM with no complaints. I walked in confidently and pretended it wasn't my first time in a hot toc and seemed to work out well. I thought about just slappin down 300 k as I walked out but ultimately just gave 350 as a compromise--my understanding is 400 k is the norm on NPK. Before anyone could complain or protest, I just walked out quickly to avoid any hassle.

I tried WeChat / Line and they were blowin' up but I could not be bothered trying to sift thru everyone. I did match with a 27 why / o office girl on Tinder who spoke excellent English and we had dinner, drinks and hung out. She tried to play the whole "don't want to hook up the first night and take things slow" routine but we came back to my hotel regardless LOL. She did go home as she had to work the day after but that suited me fine--I prefer to have the bed alone. She told me to hit her up if I was ever back in VN and said she preferred foreigners LOL.

Overall, had a good time in HCMC even with the ridiculous heat. Thanks to everyone on this forum for the useful info--lots to sift through but lots of good info.

I just got the digits of a Viet free lancer that I had a really positive experience with outside of Vietnam. Rarely do you get a good blend of looks, great massage and good service in an affordable package. It's the combination of all three that makes her a chart topper. Happy to share contact via PM. I'm not going to make use of her services as I'm unlikely to be in Saigon any time soon. Cheers, SW.

Would love to have her details please Steve W. Thanks.

I've had some success sitting downstairs at the front part of a newish rooftop bar on 38 Huynh Thuc Khang Street just off Pasteur bar area in D1 (forgot the name), stopped there one afternoon for late lunch and beer then after throwing out a few friendly smiles I ended up chatting to a striking young office lass who was walking past. Exchanged numbers and met again a day later to do the deed. Thought it was a one in a million chance, but happened twice in a short time, must have been a lucky chair or my fat wallet! Never tried on a weekend.

Good day,

In doing some research for some hobbying activities for when I visit next week, I came across this site and figured I'the ask for some general advice. I assume and kind of confirmed by reading that the scene isn't typical like bkk which is fine. My plan is to do sight seeing stuff, foodie type of things during the day and then change into my alter ego at night and go search for some ladies of the night. I've gathered the buy me drink me options, but I'm kind of opposed to waiting for a girl to get off shift at 3 am or whatever. And I prefer not to go to a park and pick someone off the street. Does anybody have any recommendations for night clubs that have FL, that I could buy a bottle or two and have a bouncer help out or does this not work out there as well? What about normal bars / lounges, are there hot working girls that you may recommend one bar over the other too? I also downloaded Zalo as well and figure I can search and see what pops up in my area at the time there and try to fish that way but from what I hear English is a tough barrier mostly. Well thanks for your time and look forward to any feedback. Pretty excited to visit for my first time. Think it's going to be a blast.

Why pay 800 k for linh when I can pay 300 k for this gem.

Wooooo nice girl can you share the contact boss?

[Rockbottomcafe]

Please read my report it gives a pretty good status on the mongering scene.

G.

Thanks brother. Great reads. Read both, pretty much spot on and read how my thought process actually wis going in. I think I'm going to do the various apps like you mentioned and try to meet up for happy hour or dinner and clubs and see what happens. Worst case, BKK is a week after, so can catch up with my nonsense then LOL.

I just spent a week in HCMC. Wechat was very active, girls look good (pics maybe not always real hehe). $60/ HR or $120/ all night, you can get them down 25-30% on the cost.

Just get online and they will start messaging you. I didn't partake cause I have a long term sweetie here. But they are there.

GG.

Just behind New World Saigon hotel, there is a park where you can find street walkers. You will also find them near Ben Thanh market.

Are there any areas that ladies work the streets in Saigon? I know there are massage places but also would like to window shop also. Happy hunting. Snook.
