The Old Phuket Hotel at Karon Beach is a Sino-Portugese-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 The Old Phuket Hotel 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 Hotel is near the Karon Shopping Centre with foreign currency exchange booth, banks, restaurants, and bars nearby. The Massage Hut near the pool and viewpoint will provide a variety of relaxing treatments, including traditional Thai pressure-point and stretching massages. There's also a jogging circuit and a childrens' playground.
