Prince Edouard Apart-hotel  

Perched on a hillside north of Patong Beach, this luxury aparthotel delivers panoramic views over Patong Bay, the mountains and the city below. It sits about 1.5–2 km from Patong Beach and is minutes from local draws like Patong Boxing Stadium, Tiger Kingdom Phuket, Kathu Waterfall and Phuket FantaSea.

Spacious apartments range from around 83 to 260 sqm with large semi-covered terraces or private balconies for ocean and city views. Interiors blend modern Thai style with marble and granite floors, fully equipped kitchens, LCD TVs and DVD players; some suites sport whirlpool tubs or genuine antiques. The resort is quietly set above the bustle, yet a short drive from Patong’s action.

Splash in a large outdoor pool with a children’s area (indoor pool options noted too), unwind in the sauna, steam room or massage and spa facilities, or keep fit in the gym. There’s a dive club, karaoke and a bar on-site, plus tour assistance and a complimentary shuttle within 3 km. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and take advantage of free self-parking and elevator access.

Meeting room on property and high-speed internet in rooms make this a practical choice for working stays, with a 24-hour front desk and luggage services.

A Thai-style restaurant serves fine dining with regional flavors and buffet breakfasts are available daily for a fee. Bar service rounds out evenings after a day exploring Phuket.
