Silom is one of the city's main business districts, and the area is active from morning until late, with the skytrain and subway lines running close to the hostel.
The Patpong night market is 100 m from the hostel, a busy market of stalls and street food that stays lively into the evening. Sala Daeng BTS station is 250 m away and Sam Yan MRT station is 400 m away, so the skytrain and subway are useful for getting around the city. Wat Arun, a riverside temple with a tall tiered prang, is 4.9 km away, and the Grand Palace is 5 km away.
A day could combine the Grand Palace with Wat Arun, which sits across the Chao Phraya river. The Jim Thompson House, the former home of an American silk entrepreneur, is also worth a visit.
