“Fantastic Find!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 8, 2012

We stayed at BYD Lofts in Patong and it DID NOT disappoint.

We were in a Deluxe Suite which was very well appointed. All of the facilities and amenities are new and worked properly.

The bedroom and living space were well sized for 2 people and could easily accommodate a family of 4 (2 kids, 2 adults).

The kitchen was excellent with a frige, freezer, microwave and electric range. They provide dishes, stemware, barware and cookware.

BYD is convenient located to all the major attractions in Patong Beach. The beach is a 5-7 minute walk. Bangla Street - where the nightlife and bars take place in the area - is about a 10 minute walk. There are 2-3 laundry services nearby. And, just on the adjacent street there are several options for you to eat excellent Thai food with the locals (Linda's Seafood is superb!) as well as other tourists.

The service at BYD is excellent! All requests were handled promptly and with a smile. An added plus: just about everyone can speak conversational English.

The local restaurant is also quite good if you long for a taste of some western food (e.g., fries, pizza, pasta, etc.).

The property is also "guest friendly."

All in all I would highly recommend this place and would absolutely return on my next visit to Phuket.

With kind regards,

“Worst hotel experience in phuket”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 7, 2012 via mobile

I would like to warn all travelers staying in this hotel in the near future. I had the worst experience in this hotel. Starting off is that when we checked in I got a room which I didn't select over the net. The tv's were not working for 2 days and the breakfast was horrible. I got the same break fast food buffet for 3 days straight. Even the restaurant food is not at all good.

To top it all off when I was checking out of the hotel I was greeted by Ms.Felex.B not for ensuring I had a pleasant stay but she showed me the pillow cover which had blue stains on it. She wanted to know if we had caused it. How ridiculous is that. We didn't get tattoos or any shirt print on it. I was appalled by what she was asking. I will never stay at that hotel again in my life. This is clearly the worst experience anyone could ask for. No apologies were given from her either.

Dear Abhinay,

Hereby I would like to offer you our sincere apologies, I still try to figure out what happened after you last stay from 2 months ago, where you then was so much raving about our BYD lofts in your previous review here on tripadvisor.

I did not mean to upset you. Unfortunately we have had a few issues with linen stains caused by the famous Thailand tattoos as well as hair dye… I merely tried to find out what caused the stain, so we can treat it properly, certainly did not mean to make you feel uncomfortable.

In regards to your room we had clearly informed you in advance by mail that the pool access suite that you preferred was not available during your stay and you reconfirmed to me that the Grand Deluxe room was fine too, and if the pool access would come available ........ !.

As for the issue with the TV, I was not aware there was any issue. If you would have reported this to our front office team, we of course would have fixed this immediately.
Our breakfast is set up as a buffet, providing a wide range of both Western as well as Asian items to serve all. For those with special diets or needs, our team is more than happy to prepare other items, once notified.

Overall, our TripAdvisor reviews are very positive. Most hotel guests appreciate the friendly personalized service our staff provides.
We look forward to continued success because of feedback like yours.

We hope that you will consider staying with us again.

Yours Sincerely

Alex Bressers.

“No regrets!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 7, 2012

After one and a half week in Thailand, we decided to upgrade on our last nights, and our choice was BYD Lofts in Patong. A bit pricey compared to other accommodations in the area, but we do not regret our stay. Large, modern apartment, clean, and very friendly staff.
Our son got food poisoning earlier in Thailand, because of that we stayed more than planned in our room and also had quite a few meals in the restaurant. Breakfast was adequate, dinner was very good.

My compliments to all of the staff, they took good care of both mama and papa, as well as Teodor.

We will definitely come back!

“Hip & Happening”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 4, 2012

We stayed there 4 days and it was very nice. Modern, clean and very nice decoration. Location is good also because all nightlife and food places are nearby. Good for short stay but maybe not very nice for families.

Dear Idris-Gunawan,


Thank you so much for your review. It is nice to hear you have enjoyed the apartments as well as the location.

It might surprise you, but we do welcome quite some families to BYD Lofts. They especially love the space of the apartments as well as having the kitchen facilities.

If you have young children that like to interact and meet other children, you are right, it might be better to book your holidays at another beach resort with more activities for them.

We look forward to welcome you back to BYD Loft on your next stay in Phuket.

With kind regards,

Alex Bressers.

“Best of two worlds”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 2, 2012

Staying in BYD was a great experience. The brand new accomodations have great decoration and good are very comfortable and clean. The best of the hotel is its location: while sitting on a silent and undisturbed area, BYD is walking distance from the Patong Beach and from good nightlife. The staff is also very friendly and the food options of their menu are very good.
