Overview
The Lowdown
Thailand’s islands will always be a limelight-stealer, and among them, Phuket still reigns as the one that has something for everyone. Its famous Andaman side may have been well and truly discovered by jet-setting nomads already, but the legendary beaches have certainly not lost their allure.
For a stay that’s central to many of the west coast’s attractions, park yourself halfway down in the resort town of Patong. It’s home to one of the island’s largest and most popular stretches of sand, as well as a raucous nightlife scene, if that’s your cup of tea. The Lunar Patong puts you at the edge of the action – close enough for nocturnal creatures and perfectly quiet for those who are not – and offers simple, clean-lined rooms that are ideal for a fly-and-flop break.
With a multitude of restaurants around and the seashore only minutes away, this mid-sized hotel is a savvy base for beach-goers. The modern restaurant and freeform infinity pool with mountain views are enough to inspire a few days of relaxation on-site, too.
How to Get There
Reviews
The room is very clean and nice. I stayed here for three nights. There are housekeeper cleaning every day. The view outside my balcony is very great—mountain & city. The staff is also helpful. The swimming pool is little bit small but it’s quite and peaceful. I think, comparing from the price this is one of the great hotel in Patong.
I only visited the bar which is situated on the street.
Having walked past what looked to be a very nice bar that was always empty for 6 days, curiosity got the best of me and I popped in for a drink.
I can not understand why this bar is so quiet. The drinks and reasonable priced and the cocktails tasty, with great service. It would be outstanding place if it had a few more guests. Why it doesnt I have no idea.
Great location, about a 5 minute walk to Patong Beach. Plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The nightly BBQ is awesome! Staff is very friendly! The rooms are kept super clean! The infinity pool is so refreshing! We stayed for 7 nights and weren't disappointed. Its about a 15 minute walk to Bangla so either good or bad depending on you.
