Independent, Patong Hotels

For the star rating and price we paid, I was so happy and impressed with this place! We booked a spa room which is located at the front of the property and easily accessible from the entrance, lobby, breakfast area and pool. The room was spacious and appealing with all the amenities we needed. We had room service a few times and this was well priced, fast and fresh. The pool offers Happy Hour between 4 and 6 with two for one cocktails for 200 baht. The atmosphere of the pool area is fun, enjoyable and yet still relaxing. The grounds are well maintained and give out that tropical feel, which is important when you're on holidays! The location of the Deevana is good, set off the main road so very quiet. Convenience stores and money changes are right out the front and be sure to visit the banana pancake lady who sets up at the start of the main road every night. There isn't much shopping nearby but Bangla Road is a 15 minute walk away and there are plenty of stalls down that way. I would definitely stay here again!

Had a wonderful 8 nights @ banthai (after colleague recommendation) , couldnt have been happier with location-walking distance from bangla rd, restaurants, beach accross the road. Staff were lovely and willing to help your every need- Even calling for a doctor to visit my very sick husband in hotel room (food poisoning-NOT from hotel food) . I had originally wanted a pool access room but they were all booked out at my time of booking, so opted for a deluxe room (4metres to pool) instead-glad we did as there is much more privacy on balcony with garden/trees in front, whereas pool access room balcony seem to be show for everyone in or around pool.

overall very nice . Big Con: The hotel concierge, has nothing to do with the rest of staff (kindness, attitude .. etc.) They are horrible, Hotel management should take action on this. we complained to the supervisor of the front desk .. i do not think they took the complaint seriously.. I am aware of other visitors reservation about the services of the concierge.

Very good location very good staff very high security good for family stay

Great hotel right in the middle of Patong Beach, you couldn't get more central if you tried. Even though you are right in the thick of all the action and a short walk to absolutely anything and everything in Patong, LaFlora offered fantastic privacy and absolute piece and quiet. All the staff where brilliant from the start of our holiday until the end, they simply couldn't have done anymore to make our stay more enjoyable. I wish we could have stayed longer.

the best thing about this hotel is its staff, polite, helpful and friendly the hotel itself is well maintained, clean and in a good position, at first we thought the pool was a little small but in the end it was totally fine and perfect to relax and escape the heat. the hotel is just far enough to get a break from the night time noise but close enough to walk to the hustle and bustle of bangla road. This was our first trip to Thailand, Santosh the concierge was always there to advise us on day trips and places to visit. we (all six of us) were really pleased with ocean blue hotel and will definitely recommend and return there.

Excellent staff, was recognised by name within the first day of my stay. This was my 3rd stay at this hotel, and it is my first choice when holidaying in Phuket. I like the fact that I can walk everywhere around the main areas of Patong (remembering to take a bottle of water is a must) while walking around though. If you don't like loud music, then maybe this is not the place for you. Music from the bars and clubs nearby can be heard in some rooms of the hotel

As an ex employee of cruise liners I have some knowledge of customers needs and complaints. I stayed in the Patong area of Phuket where the famous Bangla Road is situated, there is something for everyone there, I would say it is a safe area, families with young children were about at night, the Thai people are very welcoming and polite. The best holiday I have ever been on, as the saying goes, I'll be back. I am in my seventies and travel on my own but I wasn't on my own for long, I found a female partner which was handy for the language barrier, providing they speak reasonable English, she had her own motorbike which was great for getting to the go-cart track in Kathu, very good track for those who like fast tracks. Treat the girl or lady you are with, with respect and they will make you feel like a prince, reward them as they don't earn much, as they say in Vegas what goes on in Vegas stays in Vegas, that should apply to any holiday, so don't be a fool and part with your money too easily.

Beautiful and clean resort, right in the heart of everything yet quiet at night. Would stay there again for sure

very neat clean and spacious. ask for 'Kwang' at the pool bar......he will look after you....good guy very relaxing. bars pools and restaurant all kept clean . good service all round
