The Besavana Phuket is on Krabi Road in Phuket Town, the island's administrative centre, where Sino-Portuguese shophouses line the streets and temples and shrines sit between them. Thalang Road, one of the old town's main streets, is also nearby. Visitors who want to walk between museums, temples and markets, rather than spend their days at a beach, will find the old town more to their taste, and the streets are lively in the evenings.

The Phuket Thai Hua Museum is 100 m from the hotel, the Sino-Portuguese Houses are 250 m away and the Lard Yai Sunday Night Market is 400 m away, so most of the old-town sights are close enough for an evening stroll. Wat Kajorn Rangsan is also close by, so the old-town sights can be combined in a single outing. Several of the sights lie along the same streets as the hotel.

A good day could start with the Phuket Thai Hua Museum and a stroll through the old town, then continue to Wat Chalong, the Chaithararam Temple, which is 6.9 km away, and the Big Buddha Phuket further on. Patong Beach and the other beaches are farther off, and Phuket International Airport is 26.6 km from the hotel.
