Khlong Luang is a district of Pathum Thani province, just north of Bangkok, where the edge of the capital gives way to villages, open land and fairways. The hotel sits on Phaholyothin Road, the main road north from the capital, and the golf course is a short distance from the entrance.

Thammasat University's Rangsit campus is nearby, and Chiang Rak train station is 1.4 km from the hotel, giving access to the rail network. Pinehurst Golf & Country Club lies 150 m away, while the Chalerm Prakiat Thammasat Museum and the Thidii Sasadaa Buddha Hall are a few kilometres off. Future Park Rangsit, a large shopping centre, is 16.4 km away for a day of shopping.

A good day could start with a round on the golf course, then move on to the Buddhist sites: the Thidii Sasadaa Buddha Hall, a pagoda, and the Asian games Columns, a monument in the Khlong Luang area. Fitness Park, a public park 1.2 km away, is a pleasant place for an evening walk, and the university museum suits anyone curious about the campus and its history. Thammasat University's Rangsit campus and the Future Park Rangsit shopping centre make the area useful for a full day out, with the museum and the golf course placed close together in the same part of the district.
