Seaview Patong, Phuket

"A nice hotel and good value in low season when we were there.. though probabably not so much in high season. Location at quiet southern end of Patong beach has its plusses and minuses...a stiff 15 mins walk to and from Bangla Rd and the gaudy nightlife if that's where you want to be... but nice to be far from it if you don't. I didn't. Room was upgraded on arrival to a Junior Suite, very spacious. But on this level the view, which should have been gorgeous of the whole of the bay, was obscured by ugly ropes of electric cables. But staff were helpful and offered to change the room. Breakfast fine, pools smallish but nice. But with the sea just over the road, who cares? Phuket tip: dive sites not great and it takes too long to get out to them. Don't bother."

"A very nice stay. Quiet end of Patong but still close enough to walk to the busy parts for both shopping, dining and bars etc. Close to the beach, nice pools and a great breakfast. The only disappointment was that we had to wait for our room to be made up when we arrived in the afternoon. Other than that, the place can't be faulted. Particularly good for couples or families that prefer a more quiet location. Enjoy."

"We were well treated and it was nice to be welcomed back.A lot of staff changes had been made since my last visit which being only six months previously makes me wonder why. A lack of continuity is not good"

"Not bad, not too bad at all. I was impressed. Only thing, the queen bed was two singles alongside each other. Apart from that, not a complaint."

"Seaview Patong was a great location, right in front of Patong beach strip right at the end so it was close enough to walk to Bangla Road and the surrounding areas and markets around there (15 minute walk) But not in the hussle and bussle of the tourist attractions and crowds, as the hotel was the last hotel and the strip you heard none of the night life going on but could be part of it in a 15 min walk or 2 min Tuk Tuk ride. Great for familys with children as the beach was right in front of you with typical tourist attractions such as jet ski's, banana boats and shops/markets. The hotel was clean and the maids come in everyday and chang your bedding unless u say not too. The breakfast was lovely and your eggs cooked in front the way you like in front of you and the evening meal was the best Thai we tried in Phuket. The staff were lovely and friendly, but be aware that the hotel is very expensive at the tourist desk for trips/tours and shows, better to barter with the stall sellng on the markets to get that. But overall I would definatly recommend Seaview to familys with children and friends."
