New Suanmali Hotel stands in the Khaosan area of Bangkok, in the Banglamphu district of the old city, on Soi Chalermkhet 1 off Bamrung Muang Road. The streets around it mix temples, guesthouses, small restaurants and street food stalls, and the lively backpacker strip of Khaosan Road is 1.6 km away. It is a neighbourhood where many of the city's older sights are close together and can be explored on foot.

The Grand Palace is 2 km away, and Wat Phra Kaew, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, sits inside its grounds. Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn, is 2.4 km away on the Chao Phraya riverbank, and Wat Saket, with its Golden Mount, is nearby. For trips further afield, Sam Yot MRT Station is 900 m from the hotel, and Phan Fa Lilat Pier is close by for river trips along the Chao Phraya.

A full day can start at the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, continue to Wat Arun on the river, and finish back on Khaosan Road, where the street food stalls and bars are busy in the evening. Between the temples and the lively evening streets, the area gives a clear sense of old Bangkok in a short space.
