It seems that everyone makes it to Thailand for a holiday at some point. While Bangkok may be the capital, it’s the beaches of Phuket that do it for us. Phuket is a great island, but the choice of Phuket hotels can at times seem a little bit overwhelming.

When it comes to choosing your Phuket hotel, don’t go overboard. Spend within your means and look for somewhere that won’t break the bank, but also somewhere you know you are going to be comfortable. Not all Phuket hotels are five-star resorts with spas, so don’t worry about not finding somewhere.

Obviously you should be wondering about what type of location you want to stay in. there are Phuket hotels dotted around the island, so you really need to just pick the place that sounds most appealing and then look for the right kind of hotel in that area.

Some people swear by Patong. There are numerous Phuket hotels in Patong. There are guesthouses and high-end properties. What Patong has going for it is lots of nightlife, a large shopping mall, markets and more restaurants than you could ever wish to dine at. Patong is the complete package when it comes to holiday resorts.

There is no reason, however, why you can’t book a Phuket hotel in once of the more peaceful areas of the island. Not everyone wants to party until the early hours of the morning. If this sounds right for you then you will definitely want to check out somewhere such as Indigo Pearl in Nai Yang.

Hopefully this doesn’t all sound too daunting and you will be able to pick the requirements for your Phuket hotel with the minimum of fuss. When you’re ready to book, be sure to shop around as the online agents can often different in price.
