The Bamboo Rooms®, home of multiple award-winning tattoo artist Ajarn Keng® - in Otley - Leeds (UK), Jay and Geng in Koh Samui (Thailand).

But you may see them at both studios as they travel back and forth.

The Bamboo Rooms® are multi award winning and world record breaking tattoo studios based in Otley – Leeds (U.K.) and Koh Samui (Thailand). Both our studios specifically specialize in the ancient art of bamboo tattooing which is traditionally learnt in the temples of Thailand by high monks.

The Bamboo Rooms® was originally established by world record breaking UK-THAI tattoo specialist, Ajarn Keng®, whose work has been featured in many books and publications worldwide, including Tattoo Master.

We have now expanded and have been joined by Jay and Geng who run our Koh Samui studio.

All our studios and artists work within the UK health and safety guidelines and our U.K. studio is licensed accordingly.

Ajarn Keng® who is considered to be one of the best bamboo tattoo artists in the world, possessing a natural artistic talent, took great time and care choosing our team to make sure the work at both our studios is of the highest quality. You will not be disappointed by choosing our artists to design your next creative and personal tattoo.

We are trying to raise the profile of the tattooing industry by providing a new level of service. Our ultra-modern tattoo rooms use only state of the art equipment and follow the highest hygiene regulations taken from the UK and Europe. Ajarn Keng®, a U.K. / Thai tattoo master, is first aid trained, holding a U.K. Health and safety license which allows him to work in the U.K. and Europe as well as Thailand.

We are not your average tattoo studios. We don’t use flash; instead we custom draw all our artwork free of charge in order to give each customer a special, original tattoo.
