The hotel is on Sukhumvit Soi 15, a side street off Sukhumvit Road in the Klongtoey-Nua Wattana district of Bangkok. Sukhumvit is one of the city's main commercial avenues, and the streets around the hotel hold cafés, restaurants and small shops, so the area suits guests who want to be near the Skytrain and to go shopping. The Skytrain runs above Sukhumvit Road, linking the area to the rest of the city.

Nana BTS station is 650 m away and Phetchaburi MRT station is 600 m, so both the Skytrain and the subway are close. Siam Paragon, a large shopping centre with a wide choice of restaurants, lies 2.6 km away, while the Jim Thompson House, the teak-house museum of the American silk entrepreneur, is a short trip further. The Grand Palace is in the old city, and Wat Arun stands on the Chao Phraya riverbank, both a longer journey across town.

Kamthieng House Museum, a Lanna-style teak house run by the Siam Society, is 750 m from the hotel and makes a good first stop before an afternoon at Siam Paragon. On a weekend, Chatuchak Weekend Market, one of the largest markets in Bangkok, is worth the trip north, with hundreds of stalls selling clothes, food and crafts. Back at the hotel, the swimming pool and the poolside bar make a relaxed end to the day.
