Central Patong Tours

Great hotel, rooftop pool, beautiful view, spacious 2 bedroom, great tv and Samsung smart tv channels! I loved the washer on the balcony and walked to 7 eleven for laundry detergent. Washing clothes was a breeze and inexpensive.

There is extensive work being done in all the communal areas and some blocks of rooms. The main pool is out of use and the others are being closed next. The walkway to the beach has all been ripped up and there is a lot of noise from the room refurbishments. On top of this the pool bar is closed and the restaurant has removed half of the menu items. It’s like they are running on basics. I don’t like to give bad reviews but I would not stop here if you want a relaxing holiday for the next few months. I understand that it needs doing (they have let the place get run down - especially the pool area) but they are now tackling too much at once. It’s like a building site. The food we had in the Beach restaurant was nice but the staff struggled to understand us and I got my starter of my main after requesting my starter 3 times. There are much better 4 star hotels in the area.

We booked this hotel because the group we were traveling with chose it based on TikTok reviews. For the price point, I think we could have purchased something better. However, we really enjoyed the welcome drink, breakfast, spa, floating lunch, and rooftop dinner. You can tell that this place is trying hard to reinvest into the property. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They even helped me arrange a welcome anniversary surprise for my wife. We booked a partial sea view room. Initially, we had a corner room with great AC and no view of the sea. Then we moved to a room with a partial view of the sea but with poor AC. My wife and I used the concierge to arrange a private tour for sightseeing. Minnie was attentive, personable, helpful, and communicative. The personal tour and driver she booked was the highlight of the trip. Also, this property sits on a steep hill. There’s a beach and 7-11 nearby, however, I wouldn’t walk to it. The property has golf carts and maybe you can have the staff drive you up and down the hill. They don’t even walk the hill. Overall, great staff, good property, and alright breakfast, but I think you can find more bang for your buck somewhere else. TikTok has overhyped this property. It wasn’t near anything we visited taking 45-1 hr to get anywhere.
