The Old Phuket Karon Beach Resort details
On the edge of Karon Beach, the Old Phuket stands out from the crowd thanks to its unique 19th-century design.
Thailand past and present converge at The Old Phuket, which is set near the white sands of Karon Beach. This stand-out hotel has been designed in the style of a 19th-century Sino-Portuguese mansion. And the architecture invokes the golden age of travel and the days of the spice trade.
Having said that, the hotel’s facilities are 21st-century. There’s a large swimming pool, surrounded by a sun terrace, where you can get poolside massages, and an up-to-date gym.
The hotel’s 4 restaurants showcase both Thai culinary tradition and modern techniques. The Bai Toey, for example, serves authentic Thai dishes à la carte, while Al Dente offers innovative Italian food.
Bedrooms in the Serene Wing are stylishly white with colour-pop lamps, throws, and cushions. They all look out over the wing’s own pool and the hillside in the distance.
