United Tower Thonglor by Aspira sits in the Thonglor area of Sukhumvit, a residential district of central Bangkok that has become known for its restaurants, cafés and bars. The area has a more residential feel than the old city, and its side streets fill with eating and drinking spots in the evening.

Thong Lo BTS station is 1.3 km away, giving access to the Sukhumvit skytrain line that runs into the centre of the city. Siam Paragon, one of the large shopping centres of the Siam area, is 5.3 km away, and Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is 18.8 km away on the other side of the city. Further out, the Chatuchak Weekend Market, a huge weekend market selling food, crafts, clothes and plants, is 8.1 km away, and The Grand Palace is 10 km away.

A good day could start at the Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha in the old city, then continue along the Chao Phraya river to Wat Arun. Jim Thompson House, a teak museum house set in a garden, makes a quieter stop on the way back into town. In the evening, the restaurants and bars along the side streets of Thonglor offer an easy end to the day.
