Bangkok Oriental Hotel is on Soi Ekkamai 12, in the Sukhumvit area of eastern Bangkok. The soi is a side street off Sukhumvit Road, one of the city's longest avenues, lined with hotels, offices and shopping malls. The setting is more residential than the old city or the riverside, so the hotel suits those who want to base themselves on the eastern side of the city, with the centre reached by skytrain.

Ekkamai BTS Station is 1.6 km from the hotel, on the Sukhumvit line of the skytrain, and it is the simplest way to reach the shopping districts and business areas further along the line. Siam Paragon, a large shopping mall in the Siam district, and the Jim Thompson House, a former home turned museum, both lie toward central Bangkok. Chatuchak Weekend Market, one of the city's largest weekend markets, is 9.2 km from the hotel.

A day out could start with the Grand Palace, 11.4 km from the hotel, and the temples of the old city, then cross the Chao Phraya to Wat Arun. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 17.3 km away, so it is the main gateway for arrivals by plane, while Ekkamai station is the nearest link to the rest of the city.
