The Great @Patong Hotel Overview

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first walked up to The Great @Patong Hotel, I wasn’t expecting much from a three-star place in the heart of all that Patong chaos. But you know what? Sometimes the unassuming spots surprise you the most. This place sits right in the thick of things, maybe a three-minute stumble from Bangla Road (and trust me, after a night out there, you’ll appreciate that short walk), but somehow they’ve managed to create this little bubble where you can actually get some decent sleep.

The lobby’s got this quirky modern vibe – nothing fancy, but clean and welcoming with staff who actually seem happy to see you rather than just going through the motions. I mean, the guy at the front desk remembered my name by day two, which doesn’t happen often in busy beach towns. The rooms are honestly better than I expected for the price point. Sure, you’re not getting marble bathrooms or those fancy rain showers, but everything works, the AC keeps up with Phuket’s humidity (crucial!), and the beds are surprisingly comfortable. I actually slept really well, which is saying something considering I’m usually kept awake by the typical Patong street symphony of motorbikes and late-night revelry. The soundproofing is better than you’d think.

What really won me over was the practical stuff that guidebooks never tell you about. The WiFi actually works throughout the building – I could video call from the pool area without any issues. Speaking of the pool, it’s small but perfectly adequate for cooling off between beach sessions, and there’s usually space even during busy periods. The location is genuinely smart too; you’re close enough to walk everywhere but far enough from the main drag that you’re not dealing with the worst of the noise and crowds. Plus, there’s this great little Thai place literally next door that the locals eat at – always a good sign. The hotel’s 8.9 rating makes total sense once you realize they’re not trying to be something they’re not. Instead, they’ve nailed the basics and thrown in some nice touches that show they actually care about guest experience. Would I stay here again? Absolutely, especially if I wanted to be in the center of Patong without paying resort prices or dealing with the party-hotel atmosphere.

Phuket hotels provide guests with comfortable accommodations on this tropical island, known for its vibrant nightlife, world-class diving spots, and legendary Thai cuisine.

Reviews of The Great @Patong Hotel

  • Christopher from Germany (9/10)

    Staff amazing rooms good size nothing was an issue

  • Robin from United Kingdom (9/10)

    I had a very good stay. Mhelle was particularly helpful with my on line check in for my flight on the next day and in arranging for an early morning call and taxi service.
    The hotel was very comfortable and convenient for facilities in Patong. The hotel is a little away from the busiest and noisiest part of Patong but that suited me perfectly
    Plenty of restaurants nearby and a huge street food market. The beach is a reasonable distance
    Thanks for a lovely stay in the hotel

  • Elliott from United Kingdom (9/10)

    We booked this Hotel based of the previous reviews, & now we understand why they have such good reviews. All the staff were very welcoming & more than happy to help us in anyway we needed. James talked a big game about the pizzas, so we had to try one out and let’s say his not wrong! Outstanding! Would definitely return!

  • Yaroslav from Russia (8/10)

    great location, just after the police blockpost, so you can take the bikes and never be caught if you don’t have driving license

    many places for breakfast and lunch nearby
