The Star of Sathorn is on Soi Krungthonburi 4 in Thonburi, the district on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River that faces central Bangkok across the water. The streets around the hotel are mostly residential, with everyday local life, and staying here means you can reach both banks of the river by boat or by Skytrain. Thonburi is known for its temples and riverside neighbourhoods, and the hotel sits between the Skytrain and the river.

The hotel is 700 m from Wongwian Yai BTS station, where the Skytrain runs toward the business and shopping districts. Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn on the riverbank, is 2.8 km away, and the Grand Palace is 3.4 km away across the water, with the Temple of the Emerald Buddha inside the same complex. Asiatique - The Riverfront, a riverside shopping and dining complex, is 1.9 km away.

A good day out could begin at Wat Arun, then continue by boat across the river to the Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, and end at Asiatique on the riverfront. Closer to home, the Wat Thong Phleng pagoda and the King Taksin Monument are both within 800 m of the hotel.
