This was our 2nd stay at The Hemingway's Hotel and we had a good stay there once more. The rooms are spotless and the bed is good. The bathroom has an excellent shower and there is always plenty of hot water. The hotel restaurant serves a good array of Thai and European dishes at fair prices - all in all a very good hotel for the money!!
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip: The agent at the end of the road by the hotel offers a great variety of trips and offers an excellent laundry service too. Don't be afraid to ask for discounts on excursions!

Very good hotel, about a 10min walk from all the great night life and if you find some companionship for the night this hotel is visitor friendly. But if your interested in going to the beach every day it is a bit far.

No Pool, But Spotless Quality Rooms

Restaurant/Room service food was top quality, Reception girls were lovely and Rooms were Big and Quality

I always go for a hotel with a pool as it seems mad not to in somewhere like Phuket. However Hemmingways told me that they were building another hotel with a pool which is almost finished. I assume both hotels will be able to use that pool. Either way, the rooms were spacious, high quality (what I'd expect in a 4 star) and the bathroom (wet room) was spacious and high pressure shower. The mini bar rated were fair and the food which I always ordered to my room was both tasty and well presented. I am intending to revisit Thailand in September and Hemmingways will be my choice for sure. Location is within walking distance of the noise of Bangla Road (Crazy place) but if you want the beach, it is probably 30 minutes walk. The big shopping mall, market and nice restaurants are less than 5 mins walk up the same road. Also the rooms have free wifi, routers on every floor! So as soon as you walk into the place you're in signal. Obviously you need to accept the routers from reception and the floor you're on, in order to have active signal at all times.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip: Hire mopeds (better as only 200bht for the day and its fun) or get a taxi to the Big Buddha Statue. Its about 30 mins from the hotel on top of the hills. From there you get a fantastic view of Phuket bay and town, as well as the site of the temple being built. Also, for Scuba diving, the best diving school for quality and experience is Scuba Cats on the beach road. Ask for Gerry, failing that ask for Kath or Sarah.

Comfortable and clean room

Brand new, comfortable and clean rooms

The room is clean and comfortable. The bad thing is the location is a bit far from the happening areas such as beach and bangla road. It needs a 20 min walk to the beach and need to walk along a very messy road (especially after rain).
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip: Please be EXTREMELY CAREFUL for the day tour agent just outside the road of the hotel. The name of the agent is NAMPUENG TRAVEL. They are SCAM and CHEATING to travellers. Don't ever believe in what they say as they are lying to pursuade you to book packages from them which are non-existing.

Standard accommodation near to the city

hospitality, the restaurant, price

Three blocks from Patong Beach, Hemingway's is situated on a quiet street shared with a few other hotels, a moped hire and excursion retailer, and a salon/wedding studio, with a small convenience store just around the corner. It is a short walk to the beach and Patong's buzzing nightlife though still relatively obscure in many taxi driver's geographic knowledge. You may well need to show taxi drivers the address of the hotel, which is printed on the room keys. We arrived around midnight and checked in with a rather dozy receptionist working the night shift. We had to wake him up, and after receiving a room key, I was shocked to open the door to a dishevelled bed and another hotel guest sleeping in it, who I awoke by opening the door. The receptionist working through the day was much more competent. Overall, the staff were very warm and friendly, and the restaurant served up tasty, reasonably-priced dishes. The wide-angle images advertising the rooms give the illusion of spaces larger than they really are; and, as the bathroom windows are covered only by a screen, the bathroom door must be kept shut to keep the room cool with the air conditioner. Given the 'open air' nature of the bathrooms, I would recommend bringing mosquito repellant. A bit rough around the edges but definitely good value for the price.
Travel tip: The standard taxi fare in Patong is ฿200, so if you plan to get a taxi between town and the hotel, try to bargain down as the drive is not even 5 minutes with traffic. If you are arriving into Phuket International Airport very late in the evening, give the hotel a ring prior to your arrival and ask to have an airport transfer arranged. We paid ฿700 for the transfer upon check-out.
