Therefore, in order not to spoil their long-awaited vacation, travelers try to collect as much information as possible and study the maximum possible number of reviews from those who have already stayed at a particular hotel. Today we decided to bring to your attention the already generalized comments of tourists from Russia who recently visited the Phuket Orchid Resort in Thailand. I must say that, judging by the reviews, our compatriots really liked the hotel, and they are ready to recommend it as a great place to stay to their friends, relatives and colleagues. But let's learn about everything in more detail.
Housing stock
Accommodation at the Phuket Orchid Resort 4hotel, reviews of which we are considering, almost all of our compatriots were quite satisfied. According to them, their rooms were quite spacious, bright, comfortable and clean. The furniture in the apartment is not new, but of good quality. Guests note comfortable beds and spacious wardrobes. With regard to technology, some complaints were caused by the operation of air conditioners. So, for some guests, they, according to them, did not cool well, while others, on the contrary, could not adjust so that the room was warmer. But this did not become some serious problem that could ruin the vacation. AlsoThe guests note as one of the features that the keys to the room are ordinary here, not in the form of a card. In addition, the reception will give you a key to the safe. For many tourists, this was a little unusual, but it did not cause any particular inconvenience. As for the pluses, the guests liked the presence in the rooms of large balconies, modern TVs with Russian-language channels, tea and coffee making facilities. According to our compatriots, there is no hairdryer in the apartments. However, if necessary, you can take it to the reception. You will not be charged for this.
Cleaning
With regard to this issue, the opinions of the guests of Phuket Orchid Resort 4(Phuket, Thailand) differ somewhat. So, some of the guests claim that their rooms were cleaned very well, they regularly washed the floors, dusted, changed towels (both for the bath and for the beach) and bed linen. However, some tourists claim that the cleaning in their apartments left much to be desired. According to them, their bed linen was rarely changed, towels were updated reluctantly, and the dust was practically not wiped off. Some guests expressed the opinion that much depends on the maids themselves. So, someone was lucky to live in a building where a cleaning lady takes her job very responsibly, but someone is not. However, in general, there were no particular complaints on this issue from travelers. If the guests were not satisfied with the cleaning in some way, they could always report this to the reception, counting on an improvement in the situation.
Check-in, departure
As our compatriots note, the Phuket Orchid Resort rarely keeps check-out time when checking in guests. Therefore, even if you arrive at the hotel early in the morning, if there are available rooms of the category you booked, the keys to the apartments will be given to you almost immediately. Tourists found this approach a big plus. After all, you can immediately sit in the room and start relaxing. If, for some reason, they cannot settle you directly upon arrival, then there is also no reason to be upset. After all, you can leave your luggage in the luggage room and take a dip in the pool, sunbathe on a sun lounger, refresh yourself with a drink at the bar, walk around the neighborhood, have breakfast or lunch, or go straight to the beach.
As for the day of departure, the occupied room should be vacated before noon. Moreover, if you plan to leave the Phuket Orchid Resort 4(Phuket, Thailand) only in the evening, then you can extend your stay in the apartment for an additional fee or leave your luggage at the reception and continue using the hotel infrastructure until the very moment of departure.
Food
Most of our compatriots, when booking their stay at the Phuket Orchid Resort, chose the breakfast-only option. Judging by the reviews, the guests did not regret this decision. As for breakfasts, they, according to tourists, are repeated every day, however, the choice of dishesand the products are wide enough, so you don’t have to eat the same thing all the time. So, in the morning in the hotel restaurant you can refresh yourself with soup, meat and fish dishes, sausages, cheese and sausage cuts, delicious pastries, vegetables, fruits, various side dishes. Also always available drinks in the form of milk, yogurt, juices, tea, coffee. So you can't stay hungry here.
During the day you can eat both in the hotel restaurant and outside the hotel. Experienced travelers advise the second option, as it is often cheaper, and besides, you can try a variety of dishes. Tourists also recommend not to be afraid to buy food in macarons (mobile kiosks selling food). In addition, you can always buy various products both at the local market and in supermarkets and shops, of which there are many in the vicinity of the hotel.
Sea
Our compatriots found it a big plus that the Phuket Orchid Resort 4hotel, the photo of which can be seen in this article, is located almost on the very seashore. So, to the beach you will only need to cross the road. However, experienced travelers remind that traffic in Thailand has its own characteristics. Therefore, the road should be crossed very carefully, because it is not customary to let pedestrians through here, even if they are walking on a zebra.
So, the beach next to Orkid Resort is called Karon Beach. Our compatriots were very pleased with him. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas here, so you can sit on the mats you brought with you orrugs. Also in one of the neighboring shops you can buy a sun umbrella. Experienced tourists advise vacationers to visit Kata Beach. You can walk to it from the hotel in about 20 minutes. According to travelers, the sea here is calmer, so spending time with children is much more comfortable than on Karon Beach.
