Mein Haus B @Bangpo sits on Pracharat Sai 1 Road in the Bang Sue district of northern Bangkok, a neighbourhood of local streets and temples rather than the big shopping districts of the centre. It is a quieter corner of the city that still connects easily to the rest of Bangkok by metro, river boat and road. Those who want to see a more local side of Bangkok will find it a calmer base than the centre.

The Bang Pho MRT station is 350 m away, and Tao Poon station is also nearby. From the riverside piers at Bang Po and Kiak Kai, boats run along the Chao Phraya, the river that cuts through the city towards the historic centre, and Wat Arun, the temple on the riverbank, can be reached this way. Both piers are within a kilometre of the property, so the river is never far away.

A day could start at Chatuchak Weekend Market, 2.8 km away, one of Bangkok's largest weekend markets for clothing, food and crafts, then continue by river boat or taxi to the Grand Palace, 6.9 km away, and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha inside its walls. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 27.6 km away and Don Mueang 15 km.
