Upon arrival at reception we were told they were ugrading our room to a villa. The villa was wonderful, detached with its own terrace area in a quiet part of the resort. The breakfast was good, a chef will cook you eggs to order, was enough choice for us. The pool area was lovely, plenty of sun and shade to choose from and we always managed to get a couple of sunbeds in the afternoon. The gym was average, only three cardio machines, a few weight machines and dumbbells. No air con only wall mounted fans so it got hot very quickly in there, no towels were provided.

Good location if you like patong, which unfortunate we didnt. The last time we were there was 15 years ago and it has changed so much. Mostly restaurants, very few bars away from bangla rd, which is so crowded it is impossible to have a nice time there.

One of the few remaining Lana style places in Patong. A treasure in the heart of Patong, a few steps to the beach and 5 minute walk to Bangala Rd. Lovely Staff and compliments to the gardens and ongoing minor renovation works. Is our 8th visit to Patong and 3rd to the Royal Phawadee and we will return.

Lovely traditional thai style architecture, beautiful tropical garden nice pool good breakast and very near the Beach - but a GBP 70 Room deposit with no prior warning at booking stage - and although I was given a nice Room upgrade - really noisy aircon and a basic fridge that went noisy unless the aircon was on.... Also Rooms at the front some outside noise at night .... So still really nice - but some things they should work on ...

Beware of this hotel

We stayed at this hotel a few years ago and it was very good so we wanted to repeat our good experience.
This time the staff was totally unfriendly and the bad attitude started right at the check-in when they insisted to get 2000 baht deposit in cash in advance, (never in my life i was asked to put a cash deposit it was always in credit card), the room was old, neglected, paint cracked and dirty, we couldn’t sleep because of the amount of mosquitos flying and biting, the breakfast was poor, the milk we tried to use in our coffee was sour and the service at breakfast was unpleasant as if we are disturbing their time off, upon check-out we were asked to wait until the guy ran to our room and checked that we didn’t steal anything, this was very shaming and insulting. we will never go there again and will not recommend this hotel to any of our friends

Dark and dated rooms

The pool area was nice and restaurant ok.
The room was very dark and everything old. The bathroom was awful, dirty with cracked tiles and mold. The shower was awful. The bedrooms were on a shared balcony so no privacy as people walking past looking in window so had to keep curtains closed .
Breakfast was ok, but very little put out and we had to keep asking for fruit, cheese etc. the fridge was very old and rusty where chilled food was kept. The staff not helpful.
The position of the hotel was good as it wasn’t far to walk to the beach or shops etc
After staying 5 nights we would not return

We really enjoyed the older style architecture of the buildings and the beautiful gardens. However, the staff and service were a huge let down. The staff were very unfriendly and acted as if any request for assistance was an inconvenience to them. This was particularly true of the manageress.
Facilities also in need of serious attention. We barely had any hot water for showers despite numerous requests for assistance. The furniture in the bedroom is starting to break in places. There was a leak in our bedroom room. While Covid has had a huge impact on the hospitality industry, we felt there could have been more of an attempt from staff to make our stay more comfortable.

Thai haven amidst the Patong bustle

We had a awesome stay at Royal Phawadee! It’s like a beautiful Thai haven amidst the Patong craziness. We loved our room, deluxe suite with large balcony overlooking the pool. They even decorated our bed with flowers on our arrival for our anniversary which was lovely! Breakfast was great - buffet with quite a few options. Pool area is awesome, great pool for swimming and relaxing all day. Also just 2mins walk from the beach. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in Phuket. Thanks for a great stay. 😀

What a great little Village! Was a super gorgeous place to stay and it wasn’t that typical hotel construction vibe you get staying in a boring high rise. The location was wonderful short of 1km from Bangla road and a short walk to the beach, the staff were super friendly and let us have a late check out as we flew out late at night, would definitely stay again, thank you!

Poor beds - smelly rooms.

The area around the pool and gardens are well kept and quite pretty. The bedroom we stayed in was very dark inside and stunk badly of damp. This smell seemed to be coming from the mattress. We both woke up in the morning feeling quite ill. The bed was very hard and unfortable too. We spoke to reception and they showed us two other rooms which smelt the same. The noise from the neighbouring hotel started early and went out with loud music until late. The breakfast is very poor.
There was construction work going on in the main building which was about 50 metres away from our room and next to the pool. The hotel manager (Lisa) didn't care at all about our concerns. The last straw was the laundry service, we asked for a price to wash a small bag of washing. We were told they would only tell us after the washing was complete - they tried to charge us 700 baht, again the Manager didn't care and told us we should have got a price beforehand (which we tried to do).
We decided to lose out on our money and leave the hotel 1 day early to The Holiday Inn Express round the corner which was wonderful.

Worst hotel we have stayed in.

Room was clean but air conditioning didn't work. Poor lighting part of the ceiling on balcony rotted out and fell down. Overall the staff had very poor communication skills.
The worst problem was the breakfast where the same loaf of bread wrapped in plastic wrap was served the five days we were there. We discussed this problem with Miss Opel the front office manager who asked us to write a letter with our complaints which we did. We checked out on day five of an eighteen day stay.

Great Location

We booked a double room, it was close to the pool and entrance to the hotel. I found it to be a bit dark as it was a lower level adjoining room, but we hardly spent any time in the room so it turned out ok.
Check in was easy, as was check out. The gal at the front desk was so sweet and accommodating. The other girl that books the tours in the lobby was a gem! She was kind and we booked a few tours with her.
The ambiance of the hotel was amazing. So many healthy plants and flowers it was a great soothing place to stay. There was a 7/11 about 50 feet away. The beach was a 5 minute walk and Bangla road was about a 15 min walk. We were close to everything, it was great!

Better places to stay with similar location/price

The hotel and maintenance staff were so unhelpful I would not recommend staying at this hotel.

The standard room:
- tiny, there wasn't enough room to open our suitcases
- the door did not completely fill its frame, and there was a crack in it, easy mosquito entry points, got bit several times even with spray
- not updated

The \"upgraded\" room:
- Also had tons of mosquitos, gave up on complaining
- Air conditioner broke in the middle night--was just awful. Called down for a fan or something to keep the room cool, received no help from the staff.

Of the time we had our room 70% of the daylight hours we were not allowed in it because it was being \"repaired.\" The first day we checked in and were not allowed in all day, only to be told at the end of the day we were being \"downgraded\" because it could not be fixed (did not see anyone going into the room to fix it). Second day same story, except it was \"fixed\" only to break shortly after when the main staff were done for the day. All the while, the hotel was not at full capacity and they insisted on these rooms.

The hotel is not a good value, you can easily find the same price per night in Phuket with much better amenities and staff. I pride myself in reading reviews and wish I had read the negative reviews of the place more thoroughly before deciding. We also stayed at Burasari resort while there, similar price, beautiful, updated, amenities, better value for the money.

Zimmer sind schon etwas abgewohnt was aber nur optisch etwas stört. Die Auswahl beim Frühstück war sehr übersichtlich, was natürlich auch an der Situation mit Covid und einer geringeren Auslastung zu tun haben kann. Wobei man in Thailand sowieso immer eine große Auswahl an Speisen außerhalb des Hotels bekommt und man sich somit nicht wirklich auf das Frühstück versteifen muss.
Alles in allem können wir das Hotel auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen.
