Foresttel.bkk is on Surawongse Road in Si Phraya, in the Bangrak district of central Bangkok, where the Silom business area meets older streets close to the Chao Phraya River. Office towers, hospitals and small shops line the roads around the hotel, and the river is a short walk away for anyone who wants to see the city by boat. Walking the surrounding streets is an easy way to get a feel for the neighbourhood.

The Surasak BTS Station, 850 m away, is on the Silom Line of the Skytrain, which runs through the Silom business district. Si Phraya Pier (Gate 1), 900 m away, is a stop for boats on the Chao Phraya River, and the Bangkok Mosque and the Assumption Cathedral, a Catholic church, are close by on foot.

A good day out combines the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, 4.1 km away, with Wat Arun across the river, 3.9 km from the hotel. For shopping, the malls around Siam, including Siam Paragon, are a longer trip, and the Jim Thompson House, the former home of the Thai silk pioneer, is also worth a visit. Chatuchak Weekend Market, 8.6 km away, is the place for a whole morning of browsing.
