Crystal Inn Phuket stands in Phuket Town, the capital of Phuket province, a district of older streets and shophouses rather than beach resorts. Here the town's street life is close at hand, with local markets and night markets nearby, while the island's beaches are a longer journey away. Walking is an easy way to see the old streets, since the nearest market is close by.

Talad Kaset market is 300 m from the hotel and Surin Roundabout is 150 m away, while Thalang Road, lined with Sino-Portuguese shophouses, is 750 m off. The Lard Yai Sunday Night Market is also in the area, and Wat Chalong, one of the island's best-known temples, is 7.2 km away. Patong Beach, with its lively nightlife, is 10.9 km away.

For the beaches, a taxi or a hired car is the simplest option, since Patong, Karon, Kata and Nai Harn are all a drive away rather than a walk. Phuket International Airport is also reached by road from the town, and a local bus station is close by for trips around the island.A good day could start at the Talad Kaset market, continue to the Big Buddha and end at the Sunday night market.
