Location & what to see
398 Hostel is on Charan Sanitwong Road in the Bangplad neighbourhood of the Bangkok Riverside area. It is a working district rather than a tourist centre, with local shops, street stalls and small temples close by. A hospital, a police station and a fire station are all in the immediate neighbourhood, so everyday services are close at hand.
Bang O MRT station is 100 m away, and the Kiak Kai ferry pier is 700 m away, so both the metro and river boats are close at hand. The Chao Phraya river runs through the wider area, and the pier at Kiak Kai is the closest point of access to it. The Grand Palace is 5.8 km away, and Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn, is 6.6 km away. Khaosan Road, the backpacker street known for its bars and street food, is also good for an evening out.
A full day could start at the Grand Palace and Wat Arun, then move on to Khaosan Road for street food and bars in the evening. The Chatuchak Weekend Market, one of the largest weekend markets in the city, is a good choice for a weekend morning. Parking is available nearby for those arriving by car. Back at the hostel, the laundromat and luggage storage are useful between excursions.
