Excellent hotel with great pool-area, especially if you travel with
children. We stayed 2 adults & 3 children in a familyroom which was
a bit crowded but ok. Only downside is that it felt like you were
in kanarieo"arna, all the vendors around the hotel and even at karon
marketplace are very agressive in their hunt for customers. If they
only left people alone they would have better business... Will not
go back to Phuket again, it?s too exploited and does not feel like
Thailand anymore. |

The hotel personnel was very friendly. My room was clean and fine.
I wished the safe would be included in the price and not charged extra.
Pool area was very nice, however the water was too warm for me (ne
real refresh). The food was fine and professionally organized. I enjoed
the stay :-) |

This was the 6th time we visited this hotel and we really like the
pool area. But this year we could see that some parts of the hotel
was going apart, such as the pool which need some serious maintenence
(and some cleaning of the pool wouldnt hurt). The rooms where clean
and good, but the beds are pretty hard so it gets hard trying to sleep.
But the beds doesnt stop us from going there again. |

We loved the hotel. We stayed in a jazzuci room, with two kids. The
liked to have a playtime in the jazzuci in the afternoons. The staff
was very friendly, specially to the kids. The hotel is situated just
some minutes walk from the beach, at a quiet area, without traffic.
Next time to Karon we will for sure stay at The old Phuket . |

This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel. The room, staff,
food and the hotel in general is excellent and we would highly recommend
it. It is minutes from the beach and in between Karon centre and Kata. |

A very nice hotel to spend your holiday with your kids. The 3 beautifull
pools are very nice, also for the little kids. The food is also very
good. The breakfast is available till 10.00 and that is to early,
I think. But the beds in the rooms are very hard, so you must go on
a early breakfast! |

Not at all the Thai standard that we have seen elsewhere. The hotel
is very noisy, hotel staff and their work around the hotel makes the
hotel a very noisy place. Too expensive compared to what we got! A
large hotel and not very cosy. The staff are friendly but not at all
in the Thai way that we have liked elsewhere in Thailand. Safes have
to be paid for!? Room cleaning certainly not acceptable; very dusty.
Breakfast not dull and boring. We re not returning to this hotel. |

The Phuket Orchid Resord is a great family hotel, lots of children
running around. I expected a better room for the price and the first
room had a terrible smell. The hotel gave us a new room as well as
our friends so we could be close together, the 2nd room was fine.
The beds were hard but clean. The grounds were beautiful, the pool
was really nice and fun for kids. Booking tours through the hotel
was great, they were good quality and on time. Location was good but
if you want more excitement, stay at Patong Beach or it s just a 15
minute drive by Taxi. |

Reasonable hotel. Had problems with water pouring from air conditioning
unit on first night, which took a couple of calls to reception to
gain action, but fixed before evening was out. Beds very, very hard!
Breakfast reasonable. |
