Phuket Town is the capital of Phuket, the largest island in Thailand's Andaman Sea, and OYO 605 Lake View Phuket Place is on Prachautis Road in the town itself. This is a working town rather than a beach strip, with shophouses, markets and Chinese shrines, and its older streets are known for Sino-Portuguese architecture. It is a good base for travellers who want to see the island's everyday life. The beaches of the west coast are further away: Patong Beach is 8.2 km from the hotel.

Thawisaman Market is 300 m away, and the Lim Hu Tai Su Shrine and the Chinese temple of Wat Sam Kong are close by. The Chillva seafood market is also close by. Big Buddha stands 11.4 km away, and Phuket International Airport is 23.2 km away, so longer trips are best made by car or taxi.

A day could begin with the markets and shrines of the town, then continue to Wat Khao Rang, a temple on the hill above Phuket Town with views over the surrounding area. Baan Chinpracha, a Sino-Portuguese house museum, is another stop for anyone interested in the island's history. Phuket Butterfly Garden & Insect World is also nearby, so the town and its surroundings can be explored in a single outing.
