Key takeaways:
- Ekkamai (Sukhumvit Soi 63) has a small but high-quality massage scene, anchored by Rina Spa nuru and Penthouse Exclusive soapy — verified June 2026
- Both sit near BTS Ekkamai on the Sukhumvit Line, one stop east of Thonglor
- Prices run ฿2,000–6,000, mid-to-upper range for Bangkok
- Ekkamai is quieter and more residential than the Phrom Phong nuru strip, so it suits visitors staying in the Thonglor–Ekkamai area who want fewer crowds
Ekkamai — Sukhumvit Soi 63 — is a trendy, slightly upscale neighbourhood east of Thonglor. Its massage scene is smaller than the Phrom Phong nuru cluster, but what’s here is good quality, and it’s convenient if you’re staying nearby. The two main venues are a well-rated nuru spa and a premium soapy club, both a short walk from BTS Ekkamai.

Nuru in Ekkamai: Rina Spa
Rina Spa Nuru Massage is the area’s standout. It sits at 15/13 Ekkamai 12 Alley, off Sukhumvit Soi 63, a short walk from BTS Ekkamai. It’s a Japanese-style nuru spa with private rooms, and it scores a strong 4.7 across 42 reviews. Nuru runs ฿3,000–6,000, open 10:00–23:00. Beyond standard nuru, Rina offers oil massage, a milk bath and a body scrub, and staff speak Thai, English, Chinese and Japanese — a wider language range than most.

Soapy in Ekkamai: Penthouse Exclusive
For the soapy-club experience, Penthouse Exclusive Club & Spa sits on Ekkamai Soi 12. It’s a premium-positioned venue running ฿2,000–4,000, open late from 10:00–02:00. It’s a Thai-facing club rather than a tourist-courting one, so it’s quieter and more local in feel than the big 2nd Road clubs in Pattaya or the Ratchadaphisek mega-soaplands.

Just outside Ekkamai
Ekkamai sits between Thonglor and Phra Khanong, so a couple of nearby options are worth knowing. Moon Massage on Sukhumvit Soi 44/2 (near BTS Phra Khanong, one stop east) runs oil-and-extra work from ฿1,500. K Club, a soapy venue near BTS Phra Khanong, runs ฿2,000–4,000. If Ekkamai’s two main venues are full, these are a short ride away.

What to expect from Ekkamai venues
Ekkamai’s massage venues reflect the neighbourhood: trendier, more design-conscious, and less of a high-volume operation than the Phrom Phong strip. Rina Spa leans into the Japanese spa template — private rooms, proper nuru gel on an airbed, and extras like the milk bath and body scrub that you won’t find at a bare-bones shop. Sessions are unhurried. Penthouse, as a soapy club, runs the standard sequence of shower, soapy massage and bath, but at a club rather than walk-in-shop scale.
Because the area has only a couple of dedicated venues, there’s no “walk the soi and compare” option the way there is on Soi 22–33. You pick your venue before you arrive. That’s the trade-off for the calmer, more residential setting.
Ekkamai vs the nearby areas
Ekkamai sits between two busier scenes. Phrom Phong (two BTS stops west) is the dense nuru cluster on Soi 22–33, with ten-plus venues you can compare on foot — the right call if choice matters most. Thonglor (one stop west) is the upscale nightlife strip with its own venues, covered in our Thonglor guide. Ekkamai is the quieter middle: fewer options, but Rina Spa’s 4.7 rating holds its own against anything on the Sukhumvit line. If you’re already based in the Thonglor–Ekkamai area, there’s no need to travel for a quality session.
Getting there
Take the BTS Sukhumvit Line to Ekkamai station. Rina Spa and Penthouse are both a short walk into the sois off Sukhumvit Soi 63. Ekkamai is one stop east of Thonglor and two stops east of Phrom Phong, so it’s easy to combine with the larger nuru clusters on Soi 22–33 if you want to compare across neighbourhoods.
Tips for visiting Ekkamai
- It’s quieter than Phrom Phong. Fewer venues, fewer crowds. Good if you want a calmer visit and you’re staying in the Thonglor–Ekkamai area.
- Rina Spa is the safe pick. With a 4.7 rating and multilingual staff, it’s the obvious first choice for nuru here.
- Confirm the package. Rina’s nuru runs ฿3,000–6,000 depending on duration and add-ons (milk bath, body scrub). Settle the price at reception.
- Book ahead via LINE on weekends. With only a couple of main venues, the good rooms fill up faster than in a dense cluster.
