Buying a one-day ticket at klook is convenient and saves money, and now klook’s service counter has been moved to the entry level on the 2nd floor, which is much more convenient!

It was a satisfactory massage for the price. My daughter and I took a Grab from the hotel at the time of the reservation, and it was not difficult to find. The staff was also friendly, and we received a one-hour Thai massage for two people as a promotion, and it was so satisfying that we wanted to go again. After the massage, we took the skytrain and went to Chatuchak Market.

I saw the observatory, ate the buffet, and made happy memories. It felt like an old hotel, but I was okay with it. There weren't too many or too few people, and it was a seafood buffet, so my daughter, who loves seafood, especially liked it. The desserts were also delicious.

Always choose Lek massage at Siam soi 6, it was good location near by BTS Siam station. The place was clean and new. Therapies was nice and polite. Lin was attention for how hard satisfied. Love Lek massage and spa Siam square soi6. Recommended and reasonable price. Call for slot available on the day and book thru Klook. Thank you for receptionist was very welcome when I called to book. ❤️

Buying on Klook is cheaper than the original price on site. You can use it immediately after buying it, which is very convenient. I chose a 90-minute Thai massage. It happened to be performed by an older male master. His skills were experienced and his strength was well controlled. He was probably the best master I encountered in those few days. After the massage, I felt very comfortable all over my body. Will want to go again.
