Time Sabai 32 stands on Mittraphan Road in the Chinatown area of Bangkok, in the Pom Prap Sattru Phai district, where shophouses, street-food stalls and temples line the streets. Shrines and older shophouses sit alongside the food stalls, so the area has a strong local character. The neighbourhood is lively in the evenings, and the Chao Phraya ferry piers are close by, so the river is a direct route to the old city.

The Wat Thepsirintrawat Ratchaworawihan temple is 300 m away, and the Hua Lamphong Railway Station, one of the city's main railway stations, is 700 m away. Jim Thompson House, the teak-wood museum of the American who revived Thailand's silk trade, is 1.4 km away, while the Grand Palace, the royal complex that holds the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, is 2.7 km away. The Nopphawong Pier on the riverside is within a short distance of the hostel.

A good day can combine the temples of the old city with a stroll along Khaosan Road, the backpacker street that fills with bars and food stalls at night. Chatuchak Weekend Market, a large market with thousands of stalls, is a longer trip across the city, and Don Mueang International Airport, the nearest airport, is 21 km away.
