Hotel is 30 mins drive away from Phuket Town and Patong. Unless you have a car, I wouldn't suggest this hotel. The hotel is located far away from convenience stores, restaurants and other attractions - the hotel is in the middle of nowhere. The staff proficiency in english, compared to other hotels in Phuket, is below average.
They've made mistakes almost every morning when I ordered breakfast in my room (no eggs in my american breakfast, no cups for coffee, etc). The activities proposed by the Hotel are odd, for instance there was a napkin folding class; not what you'd expect from beachfront resort.
The beach strip is narrow and walking is not possible as there are too many debris. The plus side is that our room was 5 seconds walk from the beach and we could ear the waves in our room. The beach is beautiful at times, but swimming is not possible. If you're looking for a romantic place away from everything and you don't mind staying only at the hotel for the length of your stay, book it - but it's a gamble.

| "Our stay at the Novotel Panwa was a very pleasant one. The place was perfect and just what we wanted for our holiday - serene with a magnificent view of the sea. Service level was very good- both the french staff and the local ones. Just one teeny bit of comment for inprovement - there should be more staff attending to guests during breakfast, especially during high traffic hours which is between 9 - 10 am. Over-all, we enjoyed our vacation at the hotel immensely. " |

| "This is forth year returning to this excellent hotel, see you again next. Standards are what you expect from Novotel. Location is great for those who like quiet surrounding but beautiful outlook. My only dislike was paying 100baht for minibus into Phuket Town. Great relaxing holiday with good weekly entertainment from Hotel Staff. Keep it up !!!!!" |

| "We visited phuket w/ all women gang.. & loved the hotel location.. we can see the see from our room balcony & the view is amazing...Even the pool location & point is very good.. the only - point is the place is too far from other beaches specially the patong beach & not much activity or availabity arount the hotel area. But staff is very helpful & good. Spa facility is also good. Excelent place for people who prefer a space away in nature away from loud & noisey place. Also safe...we all love it.. my mom, aunt & my sisters " |

| "Rooms were fairly good, no complaints. Check the mini bar, we had drinks missing that we didn't drink. And do not let them copy your passport, they say its for your security but there is no need for them to copy your passport. They copy everything in thailand even your passport then sell your details etc. If you have let hotels copy your passport dont be surprised if your details, credit card etc etc get used at a later date. Keep a close watch of your credit card and passport. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED" |
