Dara Hotel ★★★★
Some of the city's top attractions are just a few minutes' walk away.
HOMA Phuket Town ★★★★
"More facilities will be better if a longer stay is involved. View is average"
The Beach Heights Resort ★★★★
"Great place in a great location. Close to markets, restaurants and the beach."
Beyond Patong ★★★★
"The only downside of my Phuket and Chiang Mai trip. Seriously, don't book this place, folks! The locals in Phuket are lovely, and the scenery is beautiful. But definitely avoid this hotel in the Patong area. The entire room was incredibly damp and had a strong musty smell. I got sick after just one night, and the replacement room wasn't much better. There are construction sites and dust everywhere outside. The air conditioning hasn't been cleaned in probably a decade. The surrounding roads are under constant repair all day long, making it very dusty. And the street vendors are constantly loud and soliciting."
YouDee Hotel ★★★★
"The hotel facilities are excellent, and the staff are incredibly welcoming. Staying at U Dee Hotel is definitely a must-consider option when visiting Phuket. The rooftop pool is absolutely beautiful. If you're like us and don't speak Thai or English, they even offer a special car service to the airport for a fee, which is more convenient than taking a taxi."
77 Patong Hotel & Spa ★★★
"great location near Patong Beach and nightlife. Clean, comfortable rooms with friendly and helpful staff. Simple facilities, but good value for a short, budget-friendly stay. I will definitely book again"
Chanakarn Resort Rawai ★★★★
Located in southern Phuket near Rawai Beach, Chanakarn Resort Rawai offers a tranquil stay featuring direct pool-access rooms, an outdoor swimming pool, and a fitness center.
Nai Yang Beach Resort and Spa ★★★★
"Just had our first stay at a 4-star hotel in Thailand and honestly… this might be the most worth-it hotel we’ve ever booked! 🇹🇭✨ We stayed as a couple for one night at Naiyang Beach Resort & Spa and the experience totally exceeded our expectations. The hotel has a perfect combination of modern vibes and nature — surrounded by lush greenery, peaceful atmosphere, and beautiful resort-style landscaping 🌴 The room was surprisingly spacious and we even got a FREE room upgrade 😍 Plus, it came with a smart TV, making the stay even more comfortable. Best part? The beach is only about a 3-minute walk away! Perfect location for anyone who loves relaxing beach vibes without staying directly in the crowded area 🌊 For us, this was our first time staying at a hotel in Thailand that felt THIS worth it, even for just one night. And the craziest part… we got it for a jackpot price of only RM100!! 🔥 Definitely left us excited and already planning to repeat again next time — especially with the kids 👨👩👧👦❤️"
Phuket Orchid Resort and Spa ★★★★
"I had emailed beforehand requesting a high-floor connecting room. When I checked in before 12 PM on the day of arrival, they gave me a connecting room on the 4th floor of Building 1, located in the middle. The room and bed were both very spacious. I asked the front desk if I could get a room in Building 4, but they said my booking was for a pool view room, which wouldn't be noisy. In reality, Building 1 faces the street, and there was a lot of motorcycle and music noise at night. The rooms on the pool view side were better, but if you're a light sleeper, you'd still hear it. Earplugs solved the problem for me. Breakfast was not crowded when I went around 8 AM. The restaurant closer to the front desk had a wider variety of options. Dining nearby is very convenient; the 7-Eleven was very busy, and one day they even ran out of ice cups. If you walk out towards the mountain, there's another 7-Eleven that's less crowded. The restaurant to the right of the hotel's main entrance was delicious, with generous portions and beautiful presentation."

Phuket Patong Buri Resort
"The hotel service was great, and the front desk owner was very enthusiastic. However, the hot water in the room needs improvement. For the first two days of our three-day stay, the shower water was only lukewarm. It only returned to normal on the third day. The location is excellent, with two 7-Elevens right outside and Jungceylon shopping mall next door, making dining and shopping very convenient. Bang La seafood market is directly opposite, which is great for seafood lovers. There's a boxing gym next door, which can be noisy from 8 PM to 11 PM, but since we were on vacation and didn't go to bed early, it didn't bother us. The beach is about a ten-minute walk away. On our last day, they even let us use the swimming pool for a few hours after checking out. Overall, I think it was a very good stay."

"The room was great, and I absolutely loved the rooftop pool! It offers an amazing view overlooking Patong Beach. The breakfast was also very appealing to Chinese tastes. Overall, a very comfortable stay, highly recommended!"
Prime Town - Posh & Port Hotel Phuket
"Normally, if a hotel room isn't great, I'd just put up with it. But you guys have to see this. For a room that costs quite a bit per night, the air conditioning was leaking all over the floor. I even took a video. I didn't bother asking the hotel to fix it since I was only staying for two nights and didn't want to deal with the hassle. The floorboards were warped and lifted, which could easily cause injury if you walked barefoot. And the mattress felt like it was picked up from a dumpster. The front desk service was okay, but the facilities were absolutely terrible!"
The Royal Paradise Hotel & Spa
"The hotel is very clean. I saw another review saying that it was an old hotel, but it has actually been renovated. I was really satisfied with the room because it pleasantly surprised me, it was much better than I expected. My room also had a great view facing Patong Beach, which made my stay even better. Overall, I had a great stay! 😊"
