The Besavana Phuket – SHA Extra Plus

The Besavana Phuket – SHA Extra Plus Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to The Besavana Phuket – SHA Extra Plus, you immediately get the sense that this three-star hotel punches well above its weight. It’s tucked right on Krabi Road in the heart of Phuket Town, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better if you tried. The building itself has this clean, modern look that feels fresh without being flashy — exactly what you want when you’re looking for solid comfort without the premium price tag.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s what I love about staying here — you’re actually in the real Phuket Town, not some tourist bubble. The old Sino-Portuguese shophouses are literally a few minutes’ walk away, and you can easily explore the weekend markets and local street food without needing a taxi every five minutes. What really surprised me is how couples seem to gravitate toward this spot (they rate the location incredibly high), and I get it — there’s something romantic about wandering these historic streets together. Plus, there’s free parking right at the hotel, which is honestly a godsend if you’re planning to rent a car and explore the island.

The Room Experience

I’ll be straight with you — the room isn’t going to blow your mind with fancy amenities, but it absolutely nails the basics. The beds here are genuinely comfortable, and I mean that. You know how sometimes hotel beds feel like they’re made of concrete? Not here. I actually slept better than I expected, which is saying something because I’m usually pretty picky about mattresses. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and have everything you need without unnecessary frills.

What Makes It Special

There’s this sweet spot that some hotels hit where they’re not trying to be everything to everyone — they just focus on doing the important stuff really well. The Besavana gets that balance right. The staff genuinely seems to care about making sure you’re comfortable, and there’s this relaxed vibe throughout the property that makes you feel like you can actually unwind. It’s not pretentious or over-the-top, just solid hospitality that feels authentic.

Why Guests Love It

Look, if you’re the type of traveler who wants to be in the thick of things but still have a peaceful place to retreat to, this place makes perfect sense. You’re getting an excellent location score for a reason — everything worth seeing in Phuket Town is walkable, and when you want to venture to the beaches, you’re not starting from some remote corner of the island. The fact that it consistently gets high ratings tells you that people leave here feeling like they got exactly what they paid for, maybe even a bit more. It’s that rare find where the value proposition actually delivers.
