Phuket Hotels with Parking

First, regarding the location, given with this price I will rate it five. It provides shuttle bus service transit from the hotel to Patong beach and Big C, which I will say the travelling time is not long, with 10 minutes by taking the bus. Second, regarding the room, it is very spacious and clean, and the whole hotel as well. We love the size of the room and the facilities are also clean and well-equipped. However, what we dislike is the breakfast. The breakfast is tasteless and dirty. We all got stomachache after that. Flies can find everywhere in the restaurant. The staff in the restaurant is not helpful at all.

Prior to arriving at this hotel, we had stayed at some nice hotels in Vietnam & Cambodia, which in our view we’re getting better as our trip progressed. That wasn’t the case with the Beachfront hotel. First impressions were ok but we arrived late in the evening, and the receptionist must have been in a rush, as she rhymed off a lot of information in a matter of seconds. Our room, to be fair, wasn’t bad until we looked around. The first thing we noticed, was the toilet seat. It was a small size seat put on a large bowl!! We opted for the sea view room, but it wasn’t until the morning when we looked out the window, that we overlooked a field full of ****s and old tin buildings. Technically, we could see the sea, but really! We had to strain our neck to see it! Then came the beach! What beach? An area at the bottom of the hotel that is covered in sand and has sun beds. They have a bar there, so that saved the day, or did it? We quickly noticed that between the hours of 15:00 - 17:00 & 19:00 - 21:00 were happy hours, where they advertise 2 drinks for the price of 1. That made things better, until we noticed that all drinks on happy hour were nearly double the price. So, a bottle of Chang beer was normally 130 baht, but on happy hour, the same bottle was 250 baht!!!! Rip-off! If you happened to be one of the lucky ones to get the hotel transport to a beach area, some 15 minutes away, you’ve done well. The vehicle can only sit 8 persons, which means, most of the hotel wishing to go to the beach area, needs to order their own transport. Give credit where credits due, the breakfast and food in general is good. Staff in the restaurants are polite and helpful, but less can be said for the reception area. I found them slightly abrupt, ignorant and no patience. If you’re staying here for one or two nights, it’s ok, but anything more, I wouldn’t bother. The one thing that did come out of our trip here, was the menu. As much as the food is good, it was same old, same old, so we went out one night for something different. This lead us to a restaurant called Zen Eat, only about a 5 minute drive in a taxi, which should cost about 200 baht. A fabulous French fusion restaurant that was just amazing. You really have to try.

The reception is basic and run down. Initial thought embrace the jungle theme. The trek to our room was long with many steps, not the picturesque route imagined. We went through a very large run down wooden area, maybe a closed cafe. Initially the room looked perfect from the outside. When they opened the door the smell hit us, like a smoke den. So strong you could taste it. Honestly never been in a room anywhere with such a stench. Requested a move which happened promptly, not a problem. When we got to the next room the outside ashtray had been hidden under the table and the room sprayed with eucalyptus to mask the smoke. We requested to move hotels. Our agent couldn’t get us a move for two days which we agreed to. Hotel refunded agent no problem. The rooms have very dark furniture and are very dark. First night in the room I was bitten everywhere. Spent a month in Thailand and not a single bite. This was ridiculous When we met the agent in reception she commented on how many bites I had, yes from last night. The room was sprayed later that day. All our luggage ( waiting to move hotels) was moved. One bag shoved in a cupboard we didn’t know existed leading us to believe we had lost a bag. The whole experience was a nightmare. Breakfast was ok. Limited selection, cold fried eggs Coffee very good. We were shocked that this was the “rock” restaurant in the night. Thank goodness they didn’t respond to our two booking request months earlier for my hubby’s birthday, It really doesn’t deserve the hype. If you are disabled, have problems walking or children this isn’t the resort for you. Our first room had large pebbles on the floor all around the bath in the middle of the room. Not enough room to walk around them. The second room had a large shelf at the side of the bed, why? You needed to get in and out of the bed half way up to avoid knocking yourself. They did offer free evening meal at a local restaurant that they own. Food and service very good, only plus. We had come from a 5* hotel and this was supposed to be a 4.5* something very wrong with the rating system. Would never return. Hotel we moved to, same rating, fabulous! Booking again.

Location is great! Just ten mins to Jungceylon shopping centre and Central Shopping centre. It’s also a 5 mins walk to the beach area. The breakfast buffet serves great variety of western and local street food cart as well as 1 choice of eggs your way. We got the pool view room and it was big. Night music generally stops around 11pm and it was so quiet throughout the night. The staff are all very friendly and helpful especially Alan and Joker who checked us in. Overall great stay and majority is due to the staff!! Well done and keep it up!

Very friendly staffs! Location is great! We always stay around this area cos its not that crowded. There is 7-11 nearby and lotz of street foods at late night time. You might wanna prepare your own slippers cos we did not get one. And the swimming pool was not as big as we saw in the pictures. Still had a great time as usual.

The staff at the reception are very friendly and treat you warmly during the check in and check out process. The room is very clean, spacious and smells good. housekeeping staff is also very nice and helpful. only this hotel does not provide toiletries such as toothbrushes. maybe upon request. This hotel is also very convenient and close to the shopping mall, Bangla Road and other shops. Will come again to stay here and highly recommend to anyone looking for a hotel to stay. This hotel is the best

My first time on Tripadvisor to share some disappointments about the level of services I received upon check-in at this so called ”5-star” hotel. - I am Thai but live abroad. I came home to Phuket to visit my friends and family and chose to stay here to get a holiday feeling while in my home place. - I drove to the resort myself, and came in right past the security box but no one came out to help guide me to where to park or tell me about the lobby location as the lobby is not in an obvious place. - There's a sign pointing to the lobby but the road is very steep and not an easy drive up - I drove right up to the lobby, jumped off the car and came inside the lobby (still with no human contact up until this point) - At the reception, there were two staff there, with no smiles on their face looking busy counting the money. My friend had to say hi to get their attention. - The check-in process was fast and easy but we were disappointed as there were no cold towels nor welcome drinks provided. (I thought this was something to be expected at a 5-star hotel). - The check-in was done within 2 minutes, and we were provided with a room key card but no other information was provided i.e. breakfast time & location and facilities around the hotel. We had to ask for this information as we walk to our room. - There were 4 bottles of water in the room but they were left out of the fridge so none of them are cold and ready to drink. In the 30+degree heat, cold water is something very common in hotel rooms in my opinion and experience staying in hotels in Thailand. - The bed is big but the mattress is very hard and not comfortable. - We're in the room for the past 40 minutes and the air conditioning does not feel anywhere near cool when it was set at 18 degrees. Overall we are very disappointed with the check-in and services at the lobby as both myself and my friend did not feel welcome. The room is another disappointment, no cold water in the room, a hard mattress, the pillows feel cheap and the air conditioning does not get cool. None of our experiences so far feel like any other 5-star hotel we have stayed in before. I would definitely not return here again in the future or not recommend this place to anyone.

We recommend Bandara! We had a lovely journey here at Bandara. The pool and its view are incredible. The room is super clean and confortable and the staff is amazing! Always smiling, ready to help, very charming. They also can help you book any taxi ride or activities. The breakfast was always delicious. We really enjoyed our stay! :) oh and it is 2 minutes walking feom a 7-eleven. ;)

Location is fine and at first glance, it is an inexpensive well attended venue. However. Room: bed is comfortable and sheets are clean. If you look closer, the bathroom has not had a proper deep clean in a while. There is black mould on some joints. The cold/hot handle of the bassin ended up in coming loose in my hand at one point. The chamber maid never brought up hand towels after the first day. There is no iron provided and the one you do get if you ask for it did not work very well and the ironing board collapsed when I used it. Restaurant -Pool: the same music reel is playing non stop and comes up about 5 times in a loop throughout the day. Because of the hotel design, it can be heard everywhere you are. When you stay a couple of days, it is okay… when you stay a week, by day 4 you psychologically start to feel claustrophobic. The music is American R&B that did not particularly appeal - but it could have been worst. We tried to cancel our stay but were told that it was non refundable and had to either relinquish our money and go or stick with it. The food of the restaurant is very passable (overcooked spaghetti, burgers full of bones fragments for example). The breakfast was horrid. Turns out that the hotel franchise employed a Muslim chef so everything was tailored to a clientele that would require Halal food preparation. Even in the adult most hotels try to accommodate the diversity of their clientele. Here not a chance…The coffee was un-drinkable, same two fruits and same two cereals … after three days of the same limited choice, we ended up seeking breakfast and dinner elsewhere. Highly recommending the Green Bar across the road (speak English, very very good food, lovely people, lovely atmosphere - what a chance). Staff: young and depending on their personality can go from enthusiastic to « whatever ». Not impressed in general. Pool access room: they have a limited amount of rooms with balconies giving access to a small pool canal. Which means that everyone on their balconies can see you dipping. There is no privacy. In one part of the canals it is actually cut off from the rest of the pool system by a walkway and as far as we could see did not get « cleaned » by the automatic pool system. Which is plugged in by the main pool using an electric lead that runs across the patio (trip hazard)

The front desk staff when checking in was really friendly. Always a pleasure staying there, as we’ve stayed there before. One thing that bothered me was that our room had a door in the room that led to the room next door, and we also didn’t get the room we requested. Also, this time the check out process took REALLY long, more than 25 minutes after handing in the keys, we were still waiting to get our deposit back and leave the hotel. The breakfast was really good, and you have an amazing view while enjoying your breakfast.
