Patong is a lively beach town on Phuket's west coast, with a busy mix of hotels, restaurants and bars facing the Andaman Sea, and the beach is known for its water sports. New Lavender Hotel is in this part of Patong, 650 m from Patong Beach, and the Dragon Night Market is close by, with street-food stalls and massage shops along many of the nearby streets.

Bangla Road, Patong's main nightlife street, is 900 m away, and the Jungceylon Shopping Center, a large mall, is 750 m from the hotel. Further afield, Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong), one of the island's most revered temples, is 6.1 km away, and the Big Buddha, a large white statue on a hill, is 6.7 km away.

A good day here combines Patong Beach in the morning with a visit to Wat Chalong and the Big Buddha. Karon Beach, further south along the coast, offers a change of scene, and Phuket FantaSea, a cultural theme park with evening shows, is a well-known outing after dark. Banzaan Fresh Market, a night market, is also nearby, and the bars and clubs of Bangla Road are close by. After dark the area fills with markets, shows and open-air eating, a lively contrast to the shared lounge at the hotel.
