Sam Yan MRT station is 500 m away, and the metro is a quick way to reach the older parts of the city. Nearby, the Wat Hua Lamphong pagoda is 400 m away and the Assumption Cathedral, a historic Catholic church, is about 1.4 km off.

A good day could start with a walk to the Chong Nonsi Canal Park, then a visit to the Thai Red Cross Museum before heading across the city. The Grand Palace, 4.5 km away, and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha inside it are a major sight, and Siam Paragon, 2.2 km away, is a large shopping centre for the afternoon. Asiatique The Riverfront, a riverside shopping and dining complex, can be reached for the evening, and its waterfront setting makes a relaxed end to a day of sightseeing around the old quarters of the city.
