Tamnak Phaniat is located off Ayutthaya's city island, in the northern area, in the Suan Phrik Sub-district at the Phaniat locality. The royal pavilion lies north of Khlong Daeng and south of the Elephant Kraal. In the immediate vicinity stand two old rural Thai houses and the War Elephant Monument.
Tamnak Phaniat is a two-storey Western-style structure built during the Rattanakosin period (post 1782 CE). The brick building is “L”-shaped (23.80 metres wide by 25.70 metres long) with a front balcony. The balcony, accessible via a series of broad stairs, faces north. The building has a low basement, wooden floors, and a clay-tiled roof.
The present pavilion stands on the site of the old Tamnak, where Prince Thepphonphak (1785-1837 CE) resided after being appointed to lead the restoration of Phaniat during King Rama II's reign (1809-1824 CE) and to supervise the elephant roundups at that time.
