Top Big Buddha Hotel Reviews

Paradox Resort Phuket

8/10 Good

"A bit dated accomodation, no power points beside the beds and pretty dark generally. A bit of wear and tear throughout the bathroom. Shower took a very long time to run hot (5 minutes). Breakfast great and staff lovely. Booking airport transfer was a bit messy by email, abit of repeating myself and payment links that expire after an hour. Makes it difficult to arrange whilst travelling."

Chanalai Flora Resort, Kata Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Warmly welcomed by staff, greeted with a cold flannel to wipe the sweat away and a fan put right in front of us. Kids enjoyed the pool and pool activities. Handy to beach , shops and laundry across the road. Very helpful friendly staff. So far this has been or best of 3 different hotels around phuket"

Grand Kata VIP - Kata Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Omg!!! What a CUTE hotel!!! We got the room with the pool inside and it was ABSOLUTELY worth it! Our itinerary was jam packed with activities, so it was nice to come home and relax in the pool. Not to mention it had an Instagrammable flower back drop! Staff was amazing and so helpful. Location was great, near a night market filled with delicious food, and great shopping! Short walk to the beach. I will DEFINITELY be back. LOVED it!!!"

Chanalai Romantica Resort Kata Beach - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"Good central hotel, friendly and attentive service."

The Palmery Resort

8/10 Good

"The staff were lovely, they were all super nice and helpful. The room we stayed in was a suite. It was a little old and dated but very clean. The bed was very firm. I think if we stayed again we would get a deluxe room because they are much newer and look a lot nicer. The pool was nice but there were a bunch of tiles missing in one spot on the floor. The food at breakfast was very good and the chef making eggs was awesome he made the best eggs. The bell boy was very helpful taking bags to and from our room. Over all we really enjoyed our stay here and the couple little things would not stop us from returning. We would recommend this place to anyone. The price and the service and cleanliness was very good. Thank you. Kab khan krab"
