Old Phuket Hotel
Old Phuket at Karon Beach is a Sino-Portuguese-style
creation that evokes memories of 19th century Southeast Asia.
The atmosphere will take travelers back to the days
of the spice trade, of tin mining, of Chinese junks plying the straits of
Malacca and the golden age of travel before resorts and package tours.
Built as a replica of the architecture that still
remains in the old sections of Phuket Town, The Old Phuket provides guests
with an historical alternative to the typical hotel holiday.
The golden sands of Karon Beach stretch out in front
of the hotel to the Andaman Sea, beckoning you to join us when the hotel
is officially opened in October 2001.
From Phuket Town go to Ha Yaek Wat Chalong (Chalong
Temple five-way junction) and go up the Kata Road over the hill to Karon
Beach. Turn left at Karon circle and you'll find us.
The Old Phuket is near the Karon Shopping Centre with
foreign currency exchange booth, banks, restaurants, and bars nearby.
Old Phuket has been completely revamped in the
Sino-Portuguese Style. Renovations to our Spa Deluxe Rooms and Deluxe
Rooms have just been completed.
The warm terra-cotta colors radiate under the light
throughout the room, decorated with rich colors of green, yellow, blue and
white glass windows. The windows open the bathroom to the main living
area, bringing you to a fusion of living harmony.
Moreover, all furniture was made to follow the
original pattern and design of the past. To gain insight into the history
of Phuket, old pictures of the city are displayed in each room, reflecting
the life of the people in those times.
