Our room was nice but needed some repair work on the balcony that was not attended to during our stay so the dirt from that kept coming inside the room. I did not understand why it took so long to clean our room, given that there we 2-3 people cleaning? A few times we came back hours later from the beach and our room had not been touched, despite the "please make up sign" and it was 2-3pm. It was noisy as it you only have the fan on and not A/C you can hear people and TV's in the rooms, going up and down the tile floors and stairs, just echos. Lots of road traffic with scooters and dogs barking. The hotel is spread out and the pool is very small...from the dark blue tiles, it seems to absorb the heat so it was not refreshing but felt more like a bath. Staff also there seem lazy, as at time items left by the pool and remained there 2 days later, despite the bar staff sitting outside a lot. We had booked online but if we come back would go elsewhere, as we found several nicer places in the same neighborhood that included full breakfast for 600-700 baht, with nicer facilities and rooms.

A friend and I booked on line at the Kata Beach Center hotel.
The welcome was very friendly and the establishment was clean and comfortable.
We were delighted to find the hotel was very central, that is it is situated in a quiet area,only 10 minutes walk to the beach.
As we were on a tight budget the accomadation suited us perfectly.
Everything we needed was within walking distance.
Fresh produce market, 'flea market' the cooking school. and the night market made eating out great fun.

This unique hotel does exactly what it says on the tin. No frills, no nonsense. The location is ideal if you want to explore Phuket Island. It's out of the way 'ish' but a stones throw away from the fantastic beach at Kata. The lunacy of Patong is ten minutes by tuk tuk, and fifteen minutes to the idyllic Nai Harn beach. If lying by the pool in your all inclusive hotel is your thing then this hotel is not for you. If perfectly useable facilities, perfect location for exploring, and amazing value for money is your thing, then look no further. This is your hotel. My wife and I have spent the best part of two weeks bouncing around Phuket and this hotel is just the ticket. It's a great place to relax after nipping about on your scooter seeing all the fantastic sights Phuket has to offer. The staff are really friendly and only to happy to offer advice and useful contacts for travelling around the island and to the smaller islands which circle it. Stay here, you won't regret it.
