Badaka 99 Hostel is in the Talat Yot area of Phranakhon, the historic district of Bangkok around Khao San Road. The streets here are lively in the evening, with bars, guesthouses and street-food stalls, and the area is popular with backpackers. Several sights in the old city are within a walk, while the markets and airports are better reached by taxi or metro.

Khao San Road is a short walk away, and the Grand Palace is 1.2 km off, with the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew) in its grounds. Wat Arun, a riverside temple with a tall, tiled prang, is 1.9 km away, and the Bangkok National Museum is 450 m from the hostel. The Sam Yot MRT station is also an option for the metro, while the Chatuchak Weekend Market is 7.2 km away and Suvarnabhumi Airport is 28.6 km away.

A good first day combines the Grand Palace with the temples of the old city, then a river boat from the nearby Phra Arthit pier to see the riverside temples from the water. Ferries also cross the river to the opposite bank, where Wat Arun stands. The Chatuchak Weekend Market is a longer trip, but it is a good choice for a Saturday or Sunday.
