Top Hotels in Phuket
Explore Phuket with stays near iconic landmarks, luxury hotels, and top boutiques for the best shopping and dining
Dara Hotel ★★★★
Some of the city's top sights are just a few minutes' walk away.
HOMA Phuket Town ★★★★
"The environment is beautiful, and though the hotel is small, it's very well-designed. The room facilities are all new, and the kitchenware is clean and complete. The infinity pool offers stunning views, perfect for a relaxing vacation, and it's especially great for digital nomads. There's also a library-like co-working space on the first floor. The hotel breakfast is à la carte and offers excellent value for money."
Chanakarn Resort Rawai ★★★★
"Due to the war between Iran and Israel, my flight to Phuket was canceled and I was unable to arrive. I asked the hotel to postpone my stay by a month and sent confirmation of my flight cancellation. The hotel did not accept my request. Too bad. I will not recommend this hotel to my friends."
Nai Yang Beach Resort and Spa ★★★★
"It was good. Near by beach. Resort have mini water park also with slides and water sprinklers."
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."
The Beach Heights Resort ★★★★
"Great place in a great location. Close to markets, restaurants and the beach."
YouDee Hotel ★★★★
"We were given a really warm welcome and checked in quickly."
Blue Carina Hotel(Central Phuket) ★★★★
"Trip.com, seriously, how can you charge over 400 for a room like this and call it 4-star? The hotel is located on the edge of what looks like a slum. There's basically no ambiance to speak of, and no elevator! I had to haul two 40-pound suitcases up to the third floor. No breakfast either. I thought it looked decent from the photos, but when I walked into the room with my child, I was completely shocked. It's straight out of a Chinese village guesthouse from the 90s. The sheets were damp, and the hotel photos are drastically different from what's advertised on Trip.com."
Phuket Orchid Resort and Spa ★★★★
"Great place for the kids and is a located close to the beach. Food is good. The pools are fun. Thanks!"

Naka Residence
"Nice location and the room is very big. Staff is accommodating."
Kalima Resort & Spa Phuket
Enjoy ocean views from your room, balcony, the pool, or the restaurant.
A2 Pool Resort, Phuket Town - scheduled shuttle to Phuket Old Town
"The hotel was great and it was nice being able to swim right off of our patio. Pool needed a bit of a clean. Staff was great , restuarant staff was good.Due to location I probably wouldn’t stay there again though ."
Phuket Emerald Beach Resort
"The front desk staff were incredibly welcoming, especially 'Nong Ing' – she was wonderful and provided excellent service. The room was fantastic and very clean. Breakfast was absolutely amazing! There were also lots of activities for kids, including a kids' club and a water park."
Oceanfront Beach Resort
"Service 10/10. Rooms 10/10. Location is convenient - not noisy, but still accessible to everything."
Sawaddi Patong Resort & Spa by Tolani
"7-11, massage, dining is available nearby.The location is good and about 1km can arrived Patong beach"
Panphuree Residence
"I called the hotel in advance to arrange an airport pick-up, and they told me to send an email. I sent two emails but received no reply. I emailed Orchid (another hotel/service, presumably) and got a quick response. The main issue was that there was a thunderstorm the day I arrived. I was soaked trying to manage my luggage and an umbrella. If it hadn't been raining, this walk would have been fine."
Aurico Kata Resort & Spa
"The rooms are a bit dated. The staff attitude was good, but the breakfast was terrible! It felt like it was geared towards Westerners. If you're not too concerned about quality and ambiance, you might consider this place."
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! 😊"
Kana Triple L Hotel Phuket
"The owner of this hotel is Chinese, and they were incredibly warm, welcoming, and helpful. Since we visited Phuket during the Chinese New Year holiday, many excursions were fully booked, but the owner gave us excellent advice and a lot of assistance. The hotel is situated on a hillside, offering great city and sea views. There's also a rooftop pool where you can overlook the entire Patong area. Overall, I had a very satisfying stay at this hotel."
Horizon Karon Beach Resort & Spa
"Good value for money."
Karon Phunaka Resort
"Second stay here, and the experience was just as good. Trip.com's service was also excellent."
Wyndham Garden Phuket Kamala
"The room was pretty good, with a cozy layout. There's a large pool right outside the room that's great for soaking or even swimming. The hotel also offers a free shuttle bus to the beach. The only minor inconvenience is that the hotel is located on a hill, so you need to take a shuttle to get to your room, or you can call the front desk to arrange one. Overall, it was a good stay."
