The WIDE Condotel - Phuket

The rooms at The WIDE Condotel - Phuket range from 32 m² to 74 m², and the air-conditioned spaces include balconies, separate living rooms, and mountain and city views. Beds run from single to king size, and some rooms combine a single bed with a queen bed or a king bed.

The two penthouses have a bathtub and a mountain view: the Penthouse for 4 People sleeps up to four guests, and the Penthouse Studio 3 Pax up to three. Rooms sleep between two and four guests, and several of them have a private bathroom with a shower and toiletries.

The WIDE Condotel - Phuket has an outdoor and an indoor swimming pool, plus a children's swimming pool, a fitness centre, a spa and sauna, a steam room and a yoga room. Restaurants, a bar, room service and a buffet breakfast are offered, with a kitchen, BBQ facilities and a vending machine.

Airport transfers are offered for groups of up to three or seven people, and tours, car hire, taxi service and ticket services can be arranged. Daily housekeeping, laundry and dry cleaning, luggage storage and safety deposit boxes are also available, and free parking is available on site for guests who drive. The hotel also has a garden and an elevator.

Sakdidet Road runs through Phuket Town, the administrative centre of the island, where Sino-Portuguese shophouses line the older streets and the pace is quieter, away from the beach strips. The area suits anyone who wants to stay in town, with markets, museums and temples nearby, rather than on the sand. A local bus station is also in the area for those who want to explore the island by bus.

Wat Chalong, one of the island's best-known Buddhist temple complexes, is 5.4 km away, and the Big Buddha on its hill is 8.7 km from the hotel. Patong Beach, with its bars and nightlife, is 9.8 km away, and Phuket International Airport is 28.1 km away, with an airport transfer offered for groups of up to three or seven people. Baan Chinpracha, a Sino-Portuguese mansion that is now a museum, is also in the old quarter of Phuket Town.

A day could begin at Wat Chalong, continue with the Big Buddha, and end with a walk through the old streets of Phuket Town and a visit to Baan Chinpracha. Patong Beach suits a later afternoon, with its bars and nightlife, while the hotel's pools are there for quieter hours of the day.
