Now the train stop closest to Golden Mount / Wat Saket is on the MRT line (blue line) and the station you need to alight at is named Sam Yot. If you plan on staying late keep in my mind the last train scheduled for departure towards Sukhumvit station. I got there at about 11:45 pm and missed it.
If you're on the Sukhumvit Line (light green line) then you will need to change trains at either Asok and take the short walk to Sukhumvit MRT station (I've outlined details of the walk in my post HERE regarding getting to Wat Arun without taking the ferry). Note: if you're close to Siam station on the Sukhumvit line it may be a shorter travel distance if you change trains to the Silom line (dark green line) then alight at Sala Daeng station to take the train at Silom Station on the MRT line (blue line). It sounds confusing but one you check out the train map, it'll be easier to understand.
Sam Yot, I think, is the nicest looking station I've seen in Bangkok so far as it looks like a more traditional shop house rather than a transport station. Here's a photo:
