I had a mixed experience at The Old Phuket. The rooms were generally clean and spacious, and I received a lovely upgrade which was a nice surprise. However, the dining options were quite disappointing, especially the breakfast and certain meals. The hotel's location is excellent, close to the beach and many restaurants, which is a definite plus. While the amenities provided a decent experience overall, I felt some areas could use improvement.

We had a brilliant stay at this resort for two weeks! The rooms were massive and very comfortable, perfect for our family. The pool was well-maintained, and the dining options available were truly enjoyable. However, we did notice some issues with the beach cleanliness and an underwhelming kids club experience. Overall, it was a great holiday and we'll definitely consider coming back.

I had a wonderfully relaxing holiday at this resort, tucked away in a quiet area. The beach is just a short stroll away and the local Thai restaurants are worth exploring. Although the air conditioning could use some attention, the rooms were spacious and clean, and the breakfast offers a nice variety. The pool area is lovely, but it could benefit from more loungers as they get reserved quickly in the morning.
Rooms
The rooms were bright, spacious, and clean, featuring comfortable beds and a unique bathroom layout with a sunken bath that overlooks the pool. Rating: 9

Breakfast had a wide range of tasty options, including a fresh egg station, but the on-site restaurants may get repetitive for longer stays. Rating: 7

I found this hotel to be a lovely gem with friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was quite good, and the pool was a perfect spot to cool off. However, my last visit was disappointing as the room quality declined, and I encountered issues with air conditioning and cleanliness. It's clear that the hotel is well-maintained, but the recent experience did not meet my expectations.

This resort offers beautiful surroundings and a spacious pool access room that I really enjoyed. However, my experience was marred by issues with the overly aggressive security, which made me feel uncomfortable as a solo traveler. The dining options were good, but there were some annoying charges that felt a bit excessive, especially during events.
