Sukhothai

Most of the backpacker-friendly accommodation, restaurants, bars, etc are near the Phra Ruang Bridge over the Yom River. Once you get to this area, everything is a short walk, including the small night market on the other side of the river. While there re a couple of places to stay near the park, notably the Vitoon and Old City, you'll really be better served staying in New Sukhothai.
