Location & what to see
Sound Gallery House is in Talad Neua, the old-town part of Phuket Town, the island's capital. The streets here are lined with Sino-Portuguese shophouses, Chinese shrines and small temples, and the area has a more local feel than the beach resort areas further from town. The old town is compact, so most of its sights can be reached without transport. Walking is the easiest way to see the narrow streets, and a fresh market is close by in the town centre.
Within a short walk are the Sanjao Sam San temple and the Thye Guan Tong and Mae Ya Nang shrines, while Phuket Old Town itself covers the historic streets. Wat Chalong (Chaithararam Temple), the island's best-known temple, is 6.4 km away, and Patong Beach is 9.4 km away. Phuket International Airport is 26.5 km from the hostel, and the Phuket Town local bus station is 1.8 km away.
A good day could start at Wat Chalong, then move on to the Big Buddha, before returning to Phuket Town for a walk through the old town's streets. On Sundays, the Lard Yai Sunday Night Market is one of the town's evening draws, and it is a short trip from the hostel.
What guests say
Travellers rate the cleanliness and the location most highly, both at 9.1, and value for money also scores very well at 9.0.
