China Town is one of Bangkok's best-known districts, a dense grid of shophouses, markets and shrines that runs along Yaowarat Road, and the hotel stands on that road itself. The street stays busy into the evening, with food stalls and small shops lining the pavements, so it is an easy place to walk around after dark. Yaowarat Road is also the centre of the Chinese New Year celebrations in Bangkok.

Within a short distance you will find Kuan Yim Shrine, a Chinese shrine 200 m from the hotel, and the Wat Traimit Museum, 350 m away, which houses a large gold Buddha image. The Wat Mangkon MRT Station is the closest rail link, and Hua Lamphong Railway Station, 600 m away, is Bangkok's main railway station for long-distance trains. The Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha are about 2.4 km away.

A good way to spend a day is to walk Yaowarat Road early in the morning, then visit the Wat Traimit Museum and the shrines on the side streets. In the afternoon, the ferry piers on the Chao Phraya river are within walking distance, and the river crossing gives you a view of the temples on the far bank.
