For leisure there is a fitness center, a karaoke room and a garden, and a golf course is within 3 km. Tours can be arranged, bicycles are available and car hire is offered.

Practical services include a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, currency exchange, laundry and ironing service, and kids facilities with a babysitting service. Family rooms are also offered, and facilities for disabled guests are provided, so guests with different needs can find a suitable stay at the property.

The hotel stands on Chaeng Watthana Road in Laksi, a district of government offices, residential streets and convention venues rather than a tourist quarter, so the area is more practical than lively. The Government Complex, the Rajpruek Golf Course and the Mongkutwattana General Hospital are all close by, and the Government Complex MRT station, 750 m away, gives a quick link into the city.

Don Mueang International Airport is 5.3 km away and Suvarnabhumi Airport, the main international airport, is 29.5 km away, so flights in and out of the city are easy to reach from this part of Bangkok, and the hotel's own garden and bar are on site. Chalermprakiet Garden is a short walk from the hotel, while Talat Mueang Thong 1 market and The Three Birds Park are a little further, and the Museum of Contemporary Art is further afield.

Chatuchak Weekend Market, 9.6 km away, is open at weekends and is known for shopping and food, and the Grand Palace, 16.9 km away, is the classic first stop in the old city. A day that combines the weekend market in the morning with the temples and the river in the afternoon makes a full day out, although the journey across the city takes time.
