VELA Riverview is in the Ban Ko area of Ayutthaya, a city in central Thailand where the ruins of the former capital of Siam are the main draw. Around the hotel are village streets and small local temples, and the temple sites of the old city are further on. The Ayothaya Floating Market & Elephant Village and the Chantharakasem National Museum are also nearby.

The best-known ruins are a drive away. Wat Mahathat, with its Buddha head set among tree roots, is 5.4 km away, and the Historic City of Ayutthaya, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is 5.8 km. Wat Phra Si Sanphet, the royal temple with its three bell-shaped chedis, is another stop in the same park, and Wat Chaiwatthanaram, with its Khmer-style prang, is 8 km away.

Getting around means a taxi, a songthaew or a rented scooter, and the Banma train station is 2.5 km from the hotel. Don Mueang International Airport is 54.5 km away, and the journey from there is made by road. A day of sightseeing can cover Wat Mahathat, the Historic City of Ayutthaya and Wat Chaiwatthanaram, and the Ayothaya Floating Market & Elephant Village makes a good afternoon stop after the temples.
