Phuket is one of the beautiful islands in the world for beach lovers, the stunning palm-fringed beached and sparkling seas. This island is also blessed with glorious coves and bays, green mountains. Many travelers return here every year because of the delightful of Chinese Portuguese architecture, friendly people and the superb seafood. Patong Merlin Hotel located in the heart of Phuket’s exotic Patong Beach. Every guest will surely enjoy panoramic views of the elegant aquamarine swimming pools. The rooms are delicately designed to give comfort and relaxation plus an ever smiling and attentive staff will surely make your stay a remarkable one. The hotel has a fully equipped gymnasium and a tennis court to complement the wide range of water sport available on the beach. Sun-bathing decks are scattered around all three swimming pools where the guests can laze while having some cool drinks beside the pool.
Accommodation and facilities:
The hotel and staff was very friendly. At first we received a room with twin beds but the next morning we were given another room with a double bed. Although we had to be very firm in our needs they did comply. The overall experience was excellent and the breakfast choices was outstanding. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Patong.
Reservation service:
Very efficient and helpful.

Accommodation and facilities:
we stayed in building 6 which was very noisy at times during the night due to the hard rock cafe music and bass vibrating the room.Next time i will be asking to stay in building 2 or 4 which is a lot more isolated from the noise.The staff where excellent and the bar happy hour prices are good value.Overall i would recommend this hotel to stay,just be aware that building 6 is close to the hard rock cafe and can be noisy.
Reservation service:
This is the second time i have used the sawadee booking service both times have been easy and straight forward.I will use again next time.

Accommodation and facilities:
Came here as a couple many years ago and returned with our three teenage kids. Great position close to shops and beach but the place is looking a little tired and in need of some maintenance. Huge breakfasts, very freindly staff, three pools and loads of space around them with ample sun lounges for all. Probably a bit over priced given the standard of building but it was peak period and everything at your doorstep - if you like the shopping and haggling ! The kids loved it.
Reservation service:
No problems - very smooth. Thanks Sawadee...

Awesome pools, great rooms, but the pool bar prices are a bit over the top, especially when they don t let you bring your own water into the area. All round an awesome hotel would stay there again!!!

Accommodation and facilities:
if u look at the phuket map..u might not take it to be a good location BUT believe us...its brilliant ! The hotel s one face open in the back market street & the oder in front of the beach.For its price offered..nuthing can be better. I personally feel only HOliday INN & patong graceland & mercure were equilent to this hotel THOUGH gracelang is situated towards the end of the road..so quieter & mercure on the market lane ( not infront of the beach)...SO my hotel was the BEST. ( not prejudice). BUT WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT THAT THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE IN PATTAYA & PHUKET AS SUCH ( BOTH BEACH CITIES IDENTICAL) SO YOU CAN SAVE YOUR PLANE TICKETS BY HITTING PATTAYA.
THE HOTEL STAFF WAS POLITE.
THE BREAKFAST THEY SERVE (BUFFET) IS AMAZING, they daily change their menu..from live egg cooking to various juices to cookies...to 5 kinds of morning breads...to muffins...to fresh fruits...to rice..noodles..ham..bacon...WHAT NOT ??
& their PRESENTATION STYLE was superb..!
...3 pools
I recommend this hotel to everybody....a very honest opnion for this price.
Reservation service:
My sister in law tols me not to go for a internet booking as it might be a hoax sort of a stuff..BUt it wasnt so to my belief.
The moment i showed them my check in voucher that i had recd thru my e-mail..theys erved me a welcome drink in some 20 secs...
I was given the room in some nxt 5-7 mins.
So quick.
The only thing i wanna suggest sawadee is that if a person wants to change / cancel their booking they should noty charge a FULL PERIOD PENALTY. They should either cut a 25-40% or adjust the value of the bookings after a minor cut of 10%-15% in any oder holiday trip that the client wishes to take within 1 year.
