The Express Bangkok Hostel is in Yannawa, part of the Sathorn district of central Bangkok, an area of offices, older shophouses and riverside streets. Temples and churches sit within a few hundred metres, and the Chao Phraya river is close by. It is a practical area for travellers who want to be near the river and the skytrain at the same time.

The skytrain is the main way to get around from here. Surasak BTS Station is 250 m away and Saphan Taksin BTS Station is 700 m, and the skytrain links the area to the main shopping districts of the city. Sathon Pier is a river ferry stop a short walk from the hostel, and the Blue Elephant Thai Cooking School and Wat Suthiwararam are close by as well.

For a full day of sightseeing, the Grand Palace is 4.8 km away and Wat Arun stands across the river, so the two can be seen together in one visit. Khaosan Road, the backpacker street with bars and street food, is 5.3 km away and makes a lively evening out for anyone staying in the city for a few days. A stroll through Asiatique - The Riverfront along the water makes a relaxed evening out.
