Ruen Buathong Boutique Hotel Patong Beach

Ruen Buathong Boutique Hotel Patong Beach Overview

You know what really caught me off guard about Ruen Buathong Boutique Hotel Patong Beach? It’s tucked away just enough from the main chaos of Patong that you actually get some breathing room, but you’re still close enough to stumble back from Bangla Road without breaking the bank on a tuk-tuk ride. I mean, let’s be honest – most places in Patong are either right in the thick of the madness or so far out you need a GPS to find the beach.

This three-star spot has this sort of traditional Thai boutique vibe going on – think wooden accents and local artwork rather than the cookie-cutter resort aesthetic you see everywhere else. The rooms are honestly pretty solid for what you’re paying. Nothing fancy, but the AC works (crucial in that humidity), the beds are comfortable enough, and the bathrooms are clean with decent water pressure. I actually appreciated that they kept things simple rather than trying to be something they’re not. The staff really knows their stuff too – they’ll point you toward the good local spots rather than just the tourist traps. One guy at the front desk told me about this little seafood place down a side street that I never would’ve found otherwise, and it ended up being one of my best meals there.

What really works about this place is the location sweet spot it hits. You’re maybe a five-minute walk to Patong Beach, which means you can easily grab a spot on the sand in the morning before it gets completely packed with tour groups. But here’s the thing – you’re positioned so that most of the late-night party noise stays down toward the beach road area. I actually slept pretty well most nights, which honestly surprised me given how wild Patong can get. The pool area is nothing spectacular, but it’s clean and gets good sun in the afternoons if you want to dry off after the beach. They’ve got this little breakfast setup that’s basic but decent – fresh fruit, some Thai options alongside the usual eggs and toast situation. Look, it’s not going to blow your mind, but for the price point and that solid 8.2 rating it’s pulling, you’re getting honest value. If you want luxury, spend more and stay somewhere else. But if you want a clean, comfortable base for exploring Patong without the resort markup, this place actually delivers on what it promises.
