Nice hotel, pool is excellent, the lobby great, but the bathroom has black mold all over the tub and shower. Room smell like wet cat and can't really do anything the staff don't understand english. Also they charge you for towel that was dirty, but the room was dirty.....had to clean it my self with bleach and we got charge for dirty towels!!!!!

I really had a bad a experience with the hotel. The hotel is not clean as i expect, the shower had mold the bathroom wast to dark. Another thing i didnt like about hotel is that there is there is not security at all mean that ane person can get on the elevator or around the hotel and not been ask nothing, i think that the hotel suppost to have more […] security because is a lot prostitution around the area. Finally and not last at the check out the accuse me that i drink one of there drink and askinf me to pay something that i never touch, knowing that i went to the supermarket to buy my own drinks and food. I will not ever stay in that hotel ever in my life an di will not recommend to anyone to stay. Read more

Not clean & staff is not helpful specially the reception & room service.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The recessed lighting made reading in the room almost impossible. The wash basin in the bathroom did not drain properly. The toilet was hard to flush (push button).This is a good, but not great hotel to stay.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The best part was the pool and the swim up bar! Everything else was not that great. The free breakfast was really poor. We stayed at several different hotels on our trip, all including free breakfast and this one we barely would eat. The hotel itself needed some work. Our room had a cockroach in it which came out of the coffee maker. Also the a/c some […] nights was almost unbearable since it barely worked. Our friend's room was even hotter than ours. Read more

Although some of the exterior of the hotel could do with a lick of paint, the overall hotel is lovely. The pool area is very nice with three pools on different terraces offering privacy and shaded areas as well as full sun. Breakfast buffet is good, but as they cater for lots of different nationalities and religions the bacon is hidden under the counter […] in the egg staion, you just have to ask for it. Service is excellent and for a late aftrenoon cocktail around the pool they have a happy hour so your cocktails will cost under US$3.00. We prefer the delux rooms in the Royal wing as there is quite a bit of noise from surrounding nightclubs in the superior rooms. The Royal wing is a horse shoe shape so delux rooms are nice and quiet. The beds are typical Asia quality in that they have a pretty hard matress, upside is they provide heaps of really nice pillows. For the money, this hotel is great value. I have stayed here a few times before and would stay here again. Read more

I stayed at this hotel for 16 days. I upgraded my room to deluxe and found a small room with no internet. There was noting deluxe about the room. The breakfast was always the same and there were no chesee and no fresh juice - only breakfast to 10 am. The location is good near the town and shopping.

Nice Hotel for the price, not super fancy, but good enough. One of the tallest buildings in Patong beach, 10 minute walk to the beach, and 5 min walk to nightlife entertaining district. If you are looking for party is the right location, if you are looking for a quiet vacation go somewhere else outside Patong. Many entertaining go-go bars near by, not […] good for kids. Read more

The hotel charged me 80 USD for a key that I didn't lost! The key was dropped in the box and they charged me anyway. They were very offensive and it was scary. In the pics it looks awesome but it didn't look even a little bit as close as the pics. The bathroom has a leak over the bath tub that makes that when you shower the bathroom always get all […] wet. We tried to change rooms but they said all rooms were the same. The hotel is around a big gay prostitution area which you always have to go through when going anywhere. This is a matter of taste. I think that even if I was gay I would not enjoy being there. Read more

The hotel is located at a great location with easy access to food and shopping. The staff is very friendly and helping. The three restaurants in the hotel is added benefit with excellent food. The breakfast buffet was awesome. If you want to stay at a comfortable place with all the conveniences this is the place to be.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

excellent, no complaints. Staff very courteous and friendly. very nice pool. Centrally located to all the action. A short walk to the beach, clubs, dining, shopping, and dentist.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is the second time we have stayed here, and service wise, we were not dissapointed. Staff were so helpful and friendly! I prefer the royal wing as the rooms overlook the pool and are the classic Thai style rooms with beautiful bathrooms. Breakfast buffet was adequate but they tend to cater for non westerners so there was no bacon and an over abundance […] of curries ( not a western breakfast food) Omlette staion was nice but the fruit selection could have been better. Only a short stroll to shopping and the beach, pool was very nice and lovely tropical gardens. Read more

This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel, location is great 2 minutes walk to Bangala Road shopping and night life, customer service was excellent, taxi service inside and outside hotel excellent, pool very clean, a lot of food choices at breakfast for everyone even fussy eaters. Only down side no wifi reception in rooms only on the second […] floor. Everything else fantastic we will stay here again. Read more

Location is good. Height view is good. Room is good. Music on TV is excellent on unit 1. Band playing is excellent although a dance area will be required. Breakfast is good.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

good locatiion however the room was far from being clean the main hotel was run down and need of a refit. For the cost paid i could of got a far better hotel in the same location.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Poor upkeep of hotel, seems like it has never been renovated. Walls are paper thin (can hear a conversation in the next room). The floor would have been a more comfortable spot to sleep - bed was rock hard. Hotel staff english is very basic, friendliness is average. Would recommend to stay elsewhere.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Has got to be the worst hotel in pukhet. Old run down and service is non existant. Please remove from accommodation options on the web site.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The worst hotel I have ever stayed at in phuket. I have been to Thailand in excess of 20 times and this was the worst hotel and service.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Staff are lovely, even though they speak little English. They're always smiling and saying hello, the room cleaners are nice, and it safe enough to leave anything in the room as nothing was ever touched. We liked our room cleaner enough to give a big tip and a bottle of wine at the end. The buffet breakfast is pleasing enough, could have a little more […] options, but it was ok. The pool is lovely, and easily accommodates lots of people. They have a 2 for the price of 1 happy hour for an hour each day which was good. Location is good, near all the shops. Only downside is that it is near ladyboy alley, and gets rather loud from 12am in the morning. Probably not the best for older people, wanting to sleep, for us it wasn't so bad, as we were out late anyways. We stayed in the Royal wing (around the pool), so I'm sure the Paradise wing (the large tower) would of been quieter. The rooms where nice, and properly cleaned each day. I can definitely say that the service at this hotel was better than the Indigo Pearls 5 star resort service, which we stayed at later in our trip. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

We were nervous after reading some reviews but everything was great. Don't understand what the fuss is all about. Location is good, 5 minutes to shopping and about 10 minutes to the beach. Check-in was smooth. Our Deluxe room on the 19th floor was large, clean, well-decorated with an amazing view. Well worth the upgrade. Better views from the lounge […] and restaurant on 24th foor. Breakfast was OK, pool looked nice (did not use). Stayed in 3 resorts on our vacation and Royal Paradise was our favourite. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

1. This hotel is located in the nightclub area. That means every (YES EVERY) night, from 11pm to 5am, YOU WILL HEAR AND FEEL the music thumping from outdoor nightclubs (No sound restrictions apply in this holiday island. No (NO) room in this hotel is immune to the noise. Unless you can sleep through a storm - find a hotel at least 3kms away from the […] nightclub area. We stayed in on the 21st floor and even with curtains and air-con, the noise came thru the walls / windows EVERY EVERY NIGHT. 2. "Patong pong" effects the pool area severely. There is a local water treatment plant BEHIND / THE POOL. Guaranteed, your stay at the pool with be effected. 3. The staff are typically THAI - indifferent. The service is cold. If there is any request, they suddenly don't speak your language. 4. Dont bother to book tours through the hotel tour desk. They add almost twice the price of tours that you can book at the local shopping centre desk ! 5. DONT BOTHER WITH THIS HOTEL - it hasn't been kept to the standard you're expecting from all the glossy photos. Rooms look aged, as does all the other parts of the hotel. The only fresh looking part of the hotel . . . is their website. 6. This hotel is used by Russian tour companies - that means the hotel is filled with Russian tourists - and if you have experienced Russians abroad - you'll know exactly what I mean. 7. Would I stay there ever again : NO NO NO WAY ! Read more

This hotel used to be a grand hotel back in the day. But now the hotel needs a great deal of TLC as it seems to have been neglected for the last 30 years. The windows are covered in bird poo and don't look like they've been cleaned for 5 years. Our room was OK, location OK, breakfast was less than average. THere is a nice swimming pool with pool bar […] that you can enjoy. The morning i checked out i forgot my favourite shirt hanging up in the wardrobe and called the hotel two hours later when i remembered, to inform them i'd left it by mistake. They said that it wasn't there. I called again and again but the shirt never turned up and house keeping said they found nothing. Then they started to get annoyed with me that I kept (politely) calling. I told them I'd leave a bad review if my shirt didn't turn up but they didn't seem to care. It was obviously my mistake, not house keeping's. That has left a sour taste in my mouth and for that reason I'd not go back. It was only two hours after checking out i called, not a week later when the shirt was likely to get misplaced and the house keeping had just cleaned the room. Read more

Poor service.terrible breakfast and poor efforts by most staff is not a good start.then to top it off on New Year's Day no water in the hotel at all.really poor effort.not even any notice given.it ruined my plans and my girlfriends plans..overall poor poor

The hotel is older than it looks in the photos, however, clean and convenient. Our room was in Royal wing level 4. The only downside was the long walk from the entrance to our room. I had booked a room with a king size bed and I was going to ask for an extra rollover bed for my 9 years old son. Fortunately they gave us a room with 3 beds which was great. […] Overall it was a pleasant stay for us. Read more

It was very comfortable to stay in and the staff were super friendly. House keeping generally wouldn't come until 2 or 3 in the afternoon which was sometimes a little annoying but we were on the highest floor.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Review is on the Paradise Wing (Superior Room) not the Royal Wing. This wing does not seem to have been renovated for some time. However it is kept clean and tidy and the hotel is in a good location near a large modern shopping centre. Lots of small shops, massage places, money changers and eateries nearby. Walk out to the main street and go to No.6, […] a small eating house. Ask to be shuttled up to their branch which is up the hill. Great view and location ! Read more

Staff don't speak a bit of English. Bed was as hard as a cement floor. Bathroom was covered in mould. Walls were paper thin. Staff were so rude and not welcoming. Took about 35 mins to check out and Didnt even explain to us why. When we checked out they didn't say thankyou or did you enjoy our stay. Just asked for the amount of our mini bar costs. Wifi […] is hopeless. Worked 1 day out of the 8 days I was there. Hated every minute there. When we checked in they didn't say welcome or explain anything to us where anything was. All they said was " breakfast is NOT included for you" worst hotel ever! An the pool was very close to sewage couldnt bare to be there more then 5 minutes Read more

This was our second stay at The Royal Paradise Hotel & Spa and as usual it met all our requirements and standards. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, the rooms immaculate any problems or requests were dealt with efficiently. The breakfast was good with good selection. Buffet dinner was also good with plenty of selection.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We have just returned 22/9/12. The hotel was in a great location. There are three main ways to walk from the hotel to the main road that leads to Bangla Rd. One passes through a standard road/alley with a boom gate, the second a plaza with fountain and the third via an alley/road that turns into a male gay bar area at night. Walking through this section […] at night is easy and the boys are friendly. The royal deluxe room is where we stayed, the bathroom has been renovated and the room some renovation. The decor was pleasant. We had a raised futon style bed. Be careful of shins at night in the dark hitting the platform for the bed. We found the staff accomodating and efficient. We particularly found the pool staff to be friendly and efficient. The pool is one of the better ones that I have seen in Phuket, after 5 tours there. You can't beat the value for money for this hotel. The breakfast was ok. It catered for all nationalities and beliefs. There was no bacon on the menu, limited cereals, no bananas in the morning, but again still representing value for money. Breakfast was included in our room price. Pillows are too high and hard, Staff tried to find a better one for me, without success. If you need a soft, thin pillow take one from home. Noise at night was not noticed in the royal wing. Our room was on the far side of the alleys and the buses at the front of the hotel. Our room was 3517. Would I stay there again? Yes ! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

A superb stay in a clean and feature packed hotel, Excellent dining facilities with an included buffet breakfast. Close to main shopping centre and night club district. Helpfull and pleasant staff who went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable and hassle free as possible. Will return to this hotel in the near future.

Staff were fabulous and very helpful, the room was cleaned and restocked daily. Pool area was fantastic. We went as a group and were very pleased. The hotel location was so close to everything and it was quiet at night although it was right near the "gay party district". We would def stay there again.
