Phuket has some scenic and uncrowded beach areas but this is not one of them. This is a decent hotel but too far from the beach. It seems to be in a red light district but that's Thailand. They are at least discrete. The good thing about this hotel is the nice but small pool. The staff is very friendly.... More

Stayed there for four days. Fairly decent considering the low price. Pool was nice and private if not a little small. Bathrooms were basic and could do with some upkeep. Avoid the elevator! Take the stairs! Staff were OK but needs to learn a bit more English. Location is a little off but if you figure out the shortcut it's... More

Hi this is Conor m i have only seen your reply now. Firstly I just want to say that you DID rob my $700 dollars and everyone of your staff were in on it. The reason I didn't hang around for the police to come is because the tourist police told me you would pay off the police as your... More

week 1 of a 2 week stay in Phuket was at Arimana and it was chosen mostly due to price and location. It is a budget hotel, not a resort or international style upmarket one.

Arimana Hotel is within walking distance from Patong Beach, Jungceylon Shopping mall and Bangla road. I didnt pay for tuk-tuk or taxi services...because its all nearby. There is push cart vendor around the corner who os selling noodle soup. You must try them.. its damn good and I think its operate 24hrs. Highly recommend travelers to stay at Arimana. Cheers

Poor service, tiny wadind pool, indifferent staff, overpriced..the list goes on. My room was not made up for three days in a row, despite the fact that I placed a "please make up room" tag on the door at 10.30 am each morning. Ended up checking out 3days early and going to another hotel.

I stayed at this hotel for 4 weeks last year and found all aspects to be first class. In particular, the staff were extremely helpful. Looking to return in Feb 2012

I've stayed at this hotel 3 separate times from 2006-2009,its very close to all the night spots of Patong beach but out of the way enough to be quiet in the evenings.The hotel itself is small but very clean with a small plunge pool.The only draw back is its set on the road of Nanai.Other than that its very clean...
