Picnic Hotel Bangkok stands on Rangnam Road in the Phayathai and Pathumwan area of central Bangkok, a busy district of office towers, shopping malls and side streets. It works well for travellers who want to be in the modern centre rather than the old quarter. The Victory Monument BTS Skytrain station is 450 m from the hotel, and the Airport Rail Link station at Ratchaprarop is close by.

Getting around by Skytrain is the simplest option: from Victory Monument the BTS runs to Siam, where the Siam Paragon shopping mall is one of the main draws. Jim Thompson House, the former home of the American who put Thai silk on the international market, is now a museum 1.8 km from the hotel, and the Chatuchak Weekend Market, one of Bangkok's best-known markets, is open at weekends 4.5 km away.

A day out in the old city fits well with a visit to The Grand Palace, 5.4 km away, which houses the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, while the Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun) stands on the opposite bank of the Chao Phraya River. Both sides of the Chao Phraya River are easy to reach from the old city, so a day can combine temples on one bank with an evening by the water on the other.
