Gate43 airport hotel is on King Kaew Road in Bangplee District, in Samut Prakan province on the eastern edge of Bangkok. The surroundings are local neighbourhoods, villages, temples and food markets, a different setting from the streets of central Bangkok. For travellers who want the airport close at hand, the area is practical rather than touristy.

Suvarnabhumi Airport is 3.1 km away, and the Airport Rail Link Suvarnabhumi Station is 2.8 km away, on the line that runs from the airport into the city. Soi Wat Lan Boon station is a nearby rail stop, Wat Lan Boon is a local temple in the same neighbourhood, and the Suvarnabhumi Outdoor Market is close by. The Paseo Mall, a shopping mall, is in the same area. Siam Paragon, a large shopping centre in central Bangkok, is 21.5 km away, and the Grand Palace is 26.2 km away, with Wat Arun across the river from the old city.

A day in the city could begin at the Grand Palace and Wat Arun, continue to Khaosan Road for an evening walk, and end at Asiatique - The Riverfront, a riverside complex of shops and restaurants. Back near the hotel, the local temples and markets offer a quieter end to the day.
