The Front Hotel and Apartments

The Front Hotel and Apartments Overview

You know what? The Front Hotel and Apartments really surprised me. I’ll be honest – I wasn’t expecting much from a three-star place, but sometimes these mid-range spots end up being exactly what you need without all the pretentious frills.

The first thing that struck me was how the lobby actually feels lived-in rather than sterile. There’s this comfortable buzz of people coming and going – some clearly business travelers with their laptops set up in the seating area, others obviously tourists trying to figure out their day plans. The staff genuinely seems to know what they’re doing, which I mean, sounds basic but you’d be surprised how rare that is. Check-in was smooth, no weird upselling attempts, and they actually gave useful local recommendations instead of just pointing to a rack of generic brochures. The apartment-style rooms are honestly pretty clever – you get a proper kitchenette that’s actually functional, not just decorative. I ended up using it way more than I thought I would, especially for morning coffee before heading out. The beds are comfortable enough, though the pillows might be a bit soft for some people’s taste. What I really appreciated was the soundproofing – you’re not hearing every conversation in the hallway or slamming doors at midnight.

Here’s the thing about this place that I think people miss – it’s positioned really well for exploring without being right in the chaos of the main tourist strips. You can walk to most places you’d want to see, but when you come back in the evening, you’re not dealing with crowds of drunk tourists stumbling around outside your window. The neighborhood has that nice mix of local cafes and practical shops, so you actually feel like you’re staying somewhere real rather than in some sanitized hotel district. Parking can be a bit tricky during busy periods, but honestly, that’s pretty standard for most city center locations. The fitness area is small but has the basics if you need to get a quick workout in. I noticed they keep it clean and the equipment actually works, which again, shouldn’t be remarkable but somehow is. One small thing – the Wi-Fi is solid throughout the building, even in the elevator, which saved me from some awkward work calls. Overall, it’s the kind of place where you feel like you made a smart choice rather than just an expensive one. Nothing flashy, but everything works the way it should.

  A beautiful hotel, especially the rooms overlooking the sea, because the view was amazing. The furniture was not new, but it was extremely clean. The hotel staff was friendly in every sense of the word. Anything I needed was provided. Thank you, and I will stay again on any next trip. To Phuket.. But you should know that there is a building that does not have an elevator and the room is small, but it met my requirements and I have no problem with that.. The other building has an elevator and the room or apartments are very large.. Thank you all 😇.. Before I forget There was an employee, I do not remember her name, but she was short and she worked in the reception department. She was extremely polite and very nice ❤️😇👌

  Im about to go for my 3rd time in February so that should count if your reading this and probably won't stay anywhere else now I've discovered it.first thing first the room was lovely and well worth the price. No issues with the shower but i did block the toilet a few times but thats probably fault thinking about it 😅 The location is absolutely perfect 👌
  Next door there is a massage business and I went there every day (good prices). About 30 steps forward, there is an excursion hut where you can sort all your day trips and what not. 40 more steps there's the best 7 11 in all off patong. It's in the corner away from the madness and I slept perfectly every night. I know the pool looks small but I loved it! Beach view and loved watching the world go by. I even had people ask about the hotel as they walked past haha. I must of been lucky each time i went because i always got the pool to myself! The staff was brilliant 👏 a bit of a language barrier of course so be patient with them because they bend over backwards for you ar times and they are so sweet. They even upgraded me half way through my stay! The cleaning staff was awesome too. So please leave a tip for them because they work hard. In the room there is a hairdryer, safe and even a beach bad for you haha. Ask for a iron if you need one. Air con was so so good too. Its such a good price for what your getting at this place. What else can I say…..book now before everyone gets on to it. Roll on February 26th it cant come any faster.

  Great staff and location, with great view if you are facing the beach. Nice at tidy rooms. I would stay again.

• Dayna from Ireland (8/10)

  On the quieter end of Patong so less noisy. It was clean, modern and large compared to most places we stayed. Staff cleaned everyday and towels and bedding were good quality.

• Chris from Australia (8/10)

  view from room was great and location is superb

• H from United Kingdom (8/10)

  Overlooked the beach & it was in the quite part of Patong. Within walking distance of all the strips of shops etc. Close to Bangla boxing stadium & the night market

• Vanessa from Singapore (7/10)

  View from the room was amazing . Location is very good as it’s right in front of the beach and is also close to eateries and shopping.

• Purgchaipaew from Thailand (9/10)

  The location is just perfect to rest and stay quietly. There are nice restaurants and 7-11 nearby.
