What the numbers hide
Three structural notes from the ledger. The ST hotel line: the go-go procedure bills barfine + girl + a 300–500 short-time room on top — the quote is never the total. The Thermae premium: 2,500–4,000 in a no-haggle culture sustained by East-Asian regulars, while the same looks on Sukhumvit street quote 1,500. And the local floor: 600 baht is what readers claim Thai men pay apartment freelancers for 30 minutes; every baht above it is venue, convenience or the farang line. December 2025's budget marker: a full night across segments from ~3,000 baht.

How we get these numbers
- Every figure is a range from many independent reports — never one guy’s story.
- Prices enter the database with a source date and remain available as they age.
- The same segment is tracked district by district — the spread between areas is often the real story.
- Dollar amounts are rounded on purpose (rate date below): enough to plan and compare cities — the exact, dated local figures come when you ask.
What moves prices here
- District is the multiplier — the same hour reads 1,200 on the street, 2,500 at Thermae, 5,000 in a Nana top room: format pricing, not service pricing.
- The farang line — Emmanuelle's 1,000-baht surcharge and the 600-baht claimed local rate: the tourist pays 4–5× the apartment floor.
- Rank pricing — soapy and nuru shops tier by looks: Poseidon 2,700 sideline vs 4,000 model; Hiso 3,700 standard vs 4,200 model vs 5,000 jacuzzi top.
- Go-go inflation — lady drinks to 260 baht at the peak (vs ~180 pre-COVID), roughly +16% since 2022.
- Thaniya's parallel economy — the Japanese karaoke street bills by the hour (700 entry) and by the barfine (850–1,300), and not every girl is take-out: the mamasan decides before you pay.
