Patong is Phuket's busiest beach town, built around a long sandy bay with hotels, shops and nightlife lining the sand. Le Maroc Hotel Patong is about 100 m from Patong Beach, and the streets between the two are lined with restaurants, bars and small shops that stay busy into the evening. The sea, the nightlife and the shops are all close at hand, and the hotel sits on the same busy stretch of road.

Bangla Road, the lively street of bars and clubs, is 250 m from the hotel, and the Banzaan Fresh Market, a local market with fresh seafood and evening food stalls, is 800 m away. Kalim Beach, a quieter sandy bay near Patong, is 1.6 km away. Phuket International Airport is 24 km away, and taxis are the usual way to reach the hotel from there, as the airport lies outside the town.

A day out could start at Wat Chalong, Phuket's most revered Buddhist temple, and continue to the Big Buddha on Nakkerd Hills before returning to Patong for the evening. Those trips are easier by taxi or car than on foot, and the market and bars of Patong make a good finish to the day.
