The Old Phuket at Karon Beach, our hotel is for those who want cost on the beach. Form the hotel you can walk a little to the Karon Beach, which is one of the famous beaches in Phuket. You will know yourself. The Old Phuket is how different from the others. The Old Phuket at Karon Beach is a Sino-Portuguese-style creation that evokes memories of 19th century Southeast Asia.
The atmosphere will take travelers back to the days of the spice trade, of tin mining, of Chinese junks plying the straits of Malacca and the golden age of travel before resorts and package tours. The Old Phuket is near the Karon Shopping Centre with foreign currency exchange booth, banks, restaurants, and bars nearby.
Accommodation and facilities:
Awesome place to stay, great location,easy access, fun bars in main street of Karon with good live bands, lots of places to eat. Would recommend Karon over Patong any time. Cleaner, nicer, quieter. Good Shopping. The Old Phuket is in a great spot. Big rooms, pool access was the best!!!!
Reservation service:
Easy to book through Tripadvisor and great recommendation.

Beautiful breakfast every morning however the beds are rock hard ,the spa if you are lucky will work but then you wont get in because its not clean....The towels need replacing very worn too.
room was nice but noise from the compressor above made it difficult to sleep.Eventually got a new room which was an upgrade and was better although the spa was touch n go again. Lack of english made it a chore getting the lovely Thai people to understand.would look elsewhere and pay a bit more.
ok for the days 5in total.The shuttle service was terrific and free...
Reservation service:
excellent will use sawadee again ....

Accommodation and facilities:
Location not so great because all the action is at Patong. For families wanting a quiet holiday far from the night life though, this is the place to be. Quite a few nice restaurants, mini market, massage parlours just outside the hotel.
The hotel itself is great. We booked rooms in both the old wing and the new pool access rooms. Both the rooms were good enough. The pool access rooms were quite spacious and the kids loved the pool. The bathrooms were very interesting.
Service was also good, though not really outstanding.
Have to say that the incharge at the front desk - Maria was very helpful.
Reservation service:
The booking service was smooth. No glitches.

Accommodation and facilities:
Our trip to phuket was destroyed by old phuket hotel... because they not make any booking for us, when we arrive to the place we discover we don t have any room available, and after 12 hours of flit, with small baby- 10 month old, we should wait about 2 hours in lobby without ac for solution of our problem, worse than that, people in reception not offer any water or place with ac for us for wait... my baby cry because he was hot tired and hungry, everyone was angry... not nice way to start holly days. I not recommend this hotel because of the service- i think have many nicer places to relax in your hollydays.
Reservation service:
unfortunately it was bad. we book hotel 3 weeks before time and when we arrive, we didn t have any booking... very disappointed.
