Grand Mercure Phuket Patong stands in Patong, one of Phuket's busiest beach resorts, where hotels, restaurants and shops fill the streets behind a wide sandy bay. Patong Beach is 450 m from the hotel, so the sand and the sea are an easy stroll away. Patong has a lively character rather than a quiet one, and its restaurants and bars stay busy late into the evening.

Around the hotel, Jungceylon Shopping Center and the OTOP Market are close by, and Bangla Road, the street of bars and nightclubs, is nearby. Banzaan Fresh Market turns into a night market after dark, with street food stalls. Farther afield, Wat Chalong, one of Phuket's most important temples, is 6.3 km away, and the Big Buddha stands on a hilltop 7 km from the hotel. Phuket FantaSea, a cultural show and theme park, is also a short drive away.

A good day out combines the beach at Patong with a morning at Wat Chalong and an afternoon at the Big Buddha, then a return to Patong for the night markets. Car hire is available, and Phuket International Airport is 24.8 km away. Shopping, dining and the beach are all close enough to reach on foot from the hotel.
