Shama Lakeview Asoke Bangkok stands on Sukhumvit Road in the Klongtoey district, in the Asoke stretch of central Bangkok. It is one of the city's busiest commercial and residential areas, with office towers, restaurants and several embassies within a few hundred metres of the hotel. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 20.9 km away, and Don Mueang International Airport is at the same distance.

Benjakitti Park is 300 m away, a green space with a lake and walking paths that makes a quiet break from the traffic. Asok BTS Station is 800 m away, and the Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre MRT station is a short walk from the hotel, so both the Skytrain and the subway are close. For shopping, the Siam Paragon mall is 3.4 km away, and the Jim Thompson House, a museum of traditional Thai houses and silk, is a little farther. The Grand Palace is 7.9 km away, and the old city's temples, including Wat Arun on the river, are a natural next stop.

A full day could begin with a walk in Benjakitti Park, continue to the Jim Thompson House and finish with a shopping trip to Siam Paragon. For a different day, the Chatuchak Weekend Market, open on weekends, is a longer trip out and is one of the city's best-known markets, with crafts, clothes and street food.
