41 Best Hotels in Phuket We Tried and Loved

What are the best hotels in Phuket?

Here are the best hotels in Phuket we love the most. We stayed at all those hotels without informing in advance to get a real experience, and by doing so, we experienced them just like any of you would and would recommend any without hesitation. Selecting a great hotel in Phuket is part of your holiday and will be a memory you will bring back home. Many of them are near the sea and the beach because this seems to be one of the most important selection factors when booking accommodation. These hotels might not appear cheap, but they all have personality, high service quality, and unique features and offer a great experience.

Best Hotels in Patong and nearby

To make it easy to find the one for you, we sorted the list of Phuket Hotels by beaches:

1. Holiday Inn Phuket Resort

Holiday Inn Phuket

Holiday Inn Phuket benefits from a strategic location for travellers who want to get the best of Patong: the beach is just across the street, the city centre with Jungceylon Shopping Centre is within walking distance, and Bangla Walking Street, known for the massive choice of nightlife activities is just a short walk away.

Just next to the hotel are plenty of restaurants, spas and shops to enjoy. The popular OTOP night market, Hooters and Hard Rock Cafe are just across the back street, yet the atmosphere is surprisingly quiet once inside the resort. The hotel features three large swimming pools with a beautiful pool bar. The rooms are well-designed, including some pool access in the Busakorn Wing. Read more
