Breakfast is served from 06:30 to 14:00, with buffet, à la carte, Asian, Continental and American breakfast available.

For getting around, there is an airport transfer and a shuttle service, a taxi service is available, and tours can be arranged.

The property is wheelchair accessible, and there is on-site parking as well as bicycle parking.

Surawong Road runs through Silom, the business and entertainment district of central Bangkok, where office towers stand beside street-food stalls and the lively Patpong area. Silom's streets fill with food stalls after dark, and the hotel is close to the city's rail lines and its night markets.

Patpong Night Market is 200 m away, and Wat Hua Lamphong, a historic Buddhist temple beside the railway station of the same name, is a short walk further. Sam Yan MRT station is 350 m away and Sala Daeng BTS station is 450 m away, so the metro and skytrain connect the hotel to the rest of the city. Jim Thompson House, the former home of the American silk entrepreneur who helped revive the Thai silk trade, is 2.3 km away, and the Grand Palace is 4.8 km away. Wat Arun, on the opposite bank of the Chao Phraya river, is another temple worth seeing from the water.

A good day could start at the Grand Palace and Wat Arun, followed by a visit to Jim Thompson House in the afternoon and an evening at the Patpong night market. The Chatuchak Weekend Market is further from the hotel, so it makes a full day out at the weekend.
