a-447 Posted September 18, 2024 Posted September 18, 2024 I'm off to Japan next week and will be spending a week in Hong Kong/Macau on the way home. Are there any massage places where I can get a happy ending in either city? What about gay bars? Has anyone visited there recently? I'm not particularly hopeful but, you never know! Quote
a-447 Posted September 19, 2024 Author Posted September 19, 2024 Thanks. I did take a look there, but I was hoping someone had been to some of those places recently and could report back. But I guess not. Quote
ChristianPFC Posted October 29, 2024 Posted October 29, 2024 My experiences in Hong Kong in 2019 were so poor, both saunas and online, that I gave up and didn't even look for saunas or online when I went again in Apr2024. Considering I'm coming from or going to Thailand, I save my time and money for Thailand. reader and vinapu 2 Quote
BjornAgain Posted October 31, 2024 Posted October 31, 2024 Sorry, was there last week, however business and associated social engagements meant I had no time to go a wandering. Quote

As I have said in some other posts under this category HK has actually a good number of gay saunas but the biggest and the most gay-friendly of them remains Hutong. They don't do any filtering anymore at the entrance like around 5-10 years ago, so everyone is accepted. I've seen white daddies every time I go, though not sure about their success rate. (I'm in my mid 30s and slim). The facilities are still great. The best days to go are Monday (young people get a big discount), Friday and Saturday. Pretty empty on Sundays, though my HK friend said that it start offering a discount now to attract more people on that day. Peak hours are 6-9PM as most customers are actually Shenzhen guys who have to catch the subway to head back home as getting a room in HK is quite pricey for them. It also get very busy during the two weeks in May and October where the mainland has holidays. I witnessed it myself this year. Went there on May 1st and by 4:30pm all the lockers were taken and guys coming in had to put their stuff in a plastic bag. There were around 200-250 guys at any given moment in there. I had a real blast. Started getting serviced by this cute twink from Shenzhen even while I was still taking a shower. Went to the cabin with him and after being done as I go out of the cabin, this other twink grabs my hand, takes me back in there , closes the door and starts going down, so I have to restart right away. After staying around 3.5 hours and having played with at least 8 guys went back to my hotel happy but totally exhausted. Lots of guys also like to play with their cabin doors opened, so you get to see a show even if you get no action. Judging by when you posted your question, you certainly already been to HK. Let us know if you got the chance to go to any place. Raposa, fedssocr, a-447 and 1 other 4 Quote

That's a time I would absolutely avoid going anywhere in China. I have seen pictures of tourist attractions covered in people. I wouldn't want to deal with booked out trains and buses and hotels and restaurants closed for holiday. reader 1 Quote

Those tourist attractions are now in Japan, not China! Can you imagine what is like to walk around Tokyo or Kyoto and never hear Japanese being spoken? So maybe it's a good idea to visit China afterall! Quote
Members Lucky Posted February 10 Members Posted February 10 I used to travel to Hong Kong a lot and loved it. But this year I was there for Chinese New year and found it drab and dull. Such a disappointment. I am guessing that western businessmen are making fewer trips to the island. Quote
vaughn Posted February 10 Posted February 10 I've spent a lot of time in HK many years ago and went back a couple of times in the last 2 years, it's definitely changed a lot, for the worse imo. FLM is one of the more popular gay bars, it's near Shueng Wan. Pottinger St is not as busy as it used to be, but there are a couple of gay venues still. Hutong Club in Mong Kok mentioned above is a gay sauna I haven't been to yet, but i've heard its still one of the better options remaining in HK https://maps.app.goo.gl/x5zHfM1cmxTs37ND9 I have always found HK guys to be pretty interested in foreign guys and open to meeting up from Grindr and Blued Quote

Well, Lunar New Year is not really a great time to visit any city as a tourist in Greater China or even Vietnam as most of the places are closed and people like to hang out with family.

Usually that's where local guys take their foreign "date" to or go there to find one. There is an entrance fee after a certain hour. The bars around Causeway Bay are much more sticky rice. If one really wants to go though, I would suggest a place called Vibranium. It offers free cocktails on Wednesday from 9-11PM.

The facilities are well-kept, pretty clean and the crowd, if you got on the right days and time, is pretty sexy. I have posted a few reviews about that place under this topic.

I know there are quite a few old-timers in here that have spent part of their life in HK so can give a better historical perspective. I'm younger and my first visit was only in 2014 ( quite the year the with the umbrella "revolution" going on) so maybe it's true that the city has changed for the worse, though I feel it's more the case of other Asian cities getting much better and now competing with HK in a lot of things that made HK unique in the 70s-80s and even 90s. Personally I visit at least twice a year for usually a 4-5 days period each time. Between restaurants (it still has an amazing culinary scene and not just for Cantonese cuisine), hiking, M+ exhibitions, cocktail bar with friends, Hutong and guys from apps, it always ends up being a great time. vaughn 1 Quote
Members Lucky Posted February 27 Members Posted February 27 No doubt there is still a lot to like in Hong Kong, it's just harder to find. The spirit the city was known for has certainly gone downhill. As for Chinese New Year, it's my understanding that most places close on New Year's Day and for as often as two weeks, but prior to that they are open. Either way, this year lacked a sense of festivity. Quote
