Awesome hotel with the best service!”

La Flora is superbly located in Phuket Patong, situated between Starbucks and MacDonald. During the 4D3N of our stay there we were able to park our rented car in front of the hotel with security looking over it. And the staff in La Flora were most polite and helpful in attending to all our needs and queries. Next i would like to comment on the daily breakfast. The spread was really wide and very delicious - they would serve up our favorite latte, freshly squeezed fruit juice and on the spot fried sunny side up eggs. And the resort is just so near to the beach. We were able to cross over to the beach in less than one minute to enjoy the sea breeze and sunset everyday. We would definitely be visiting La Flora for many holidays to come in Phuket. It will always be our first choice of stay!

Relaxing & enjoyable stay at La Flora Resort!”

Room was large and pretty comfortable, with a view of the pool. There are some in-room movies (would be great if more titles are available!) and channels like HBO. Fulfilled our aim for this trip, which is to relax, as we could pop over to the beach anytime, stay in the hotel for a swim or watch movies in the room, or head to the streets for food, shopping and massage. Service staff were attentive and helpful - my friend fell sick and they helped to contact a English-speaking doctor and constantly checked on her. They even provided a free upgrade on our airport transfer to ensure she had a comfortable ride. Located right at Patong Beach, La Flora Resort Patong is highly recommended (though the price is slightly on the high side).

A wonderful stay”

La Flora was a great place for us to stay. Although we did not originally want to go to Phuket, we chose to stay there as a central location from which to do side trips. We were able to go the Similan Islands for scuba diving (west of Phuket) and to Phang Nga Bay and the Phi Phi island (east of Phuket) as day trips. The shopping in Phuket was also good. The January weather proved still quite hot for us, so shopping at nearby Jung Ceylon (air-conditioned mall) was convenient and comfortable. As for the hotel, La Flora really was amazing. As honeymooners, they gave us a free bottle of champagne and arranged our bed with rose petals in the shape of a heart. The staff was always kind and courteous, especially Nadya. We were able to book our day trips with concierge easily. There is a nice room with two laptops with free internet and even headphones/microphone to use Skype. We used this area to check e-mails and to even book the next hotel on our trip. The breakfast buffet included mostly Western and some Eastern fare. Fresh fruit was offered but not much Thai food. There were two infinity pools that we did not end up using. The concierge was also nice enough to call restaurants for us to reserve a romantic night. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back again. Thank you, La Flora!

Fantastic Hotel!!!”

Stayed at the Deluxe room for 6 nights. Briefly told the hotel of our 10 year wedding anniversary, the hotel surprise us with cake and champagne. Rooms are big and with free mini bar (juices , Coke , Sprit & Beers) Breakfast are great, but kinda tired of it as we had it for 6 days. (Ps: do try their coffee, I don't drink coffee, but my hubby says its the best he ever drink) Beach just behind the hotel, yes its a gay beach but it is the quietest beach compare to the other side of Patong beach. Service from the people who mend the beach chairs are great!! Every night the hotel has a wind down service that they supply extra mineral water (the drinking water supply is more than other hotel, you don't have to buy and stock up) We really enjoyed our time at Phuket and at La Flora. Thank you everyone at La Flora. We will see you again La Flora, hope you can maintain your standards!!!

Stylish & relaxing stay in the center of the town”

not that i have been to several resorts and hotels in phuket, however la flora is definitely recommendable, especially if you are a couple or group of friends looking for a place adjacent to the center of the city (just a cross away) while relaxing in the hotel is still possible. it was rather quiet despite being right in the middle of the nightlife area just a block away from major bars and clubs - the modern design of the rooms/the pool as well as direct connection to patong beach are also big plus factors. not exactly the best value for money but probably it is due to the location, the room was a bit humid but we visited during the low season and overall rooms were kept well(very clean, no insects). cons i can think of are only from the surroundings of the hotel(which you should already be aware of before selecting an accomodation) and not itself, except for the just-above-average breakfast(not to worry when you've got thousands of delicious local restaurants within the readius of 10 mins walk). to conclude, i would love to come back to la flora if i wanted to stay in patong without children.

Stay at La FLora Resort at April 2009”

We (me and my wife) stayed there in April 2009 during "Songkran" - Thai New Year period. The hotel deserved its 5-stars: the service and the staff was very attentive and not aggressive/annoying as sometimes could be at the expensive places. The hotel is located on the main center of Patong facing busiest place and best topmarket Phuket seafood restraunt, and 50 steps to famous Bang-La road. The loft-villa we took was great, very spacious with private 6-meters pool. The pool and the yard was really private: you could even tan there fully undressed as noone can find a way to look behind the walls it's hidden behind. The 'public' pool you may see on the hotel's ads is great for swim-likers we are: it's abt 50 m long and you can make good swim-training there. But while there's no knee-shallow places there it's not suitable for unaccopmanied small kids fun. On the backside of the hotel it's just on a footstep of the great white-sand Patong beach. Some people, however, who keeps cons against non-heterosexual relationships shall be aware: the beach part, the La Flora is located at is exactly official gay-beach, but while it's very small (may be some 10 sunbeds) we actually noted this only on the second day we used this beach for our tanning. In any case if you are afraid of gays - just step 10 foots off this tiny beach to the main beach area. And you don't need to take sunbeds on the beach: just stay at your hotel sunbeds and walk swimming to the ocean any moment you like: it's really few meters walk on the beach sand. Other minor cons we may note (we don't know if it's only our loft-villa or other rooms have same problem): very noisy air-condition hanging just above the bed blowing into your face and rather poor food choice for breakfasts and restraunts. We've got a cold on the first day and it was really hard to sleep due to the air-condition noise: next days we just turned it off before going to bed.

Very Enjoyable Stay at La Flora Patong”

From arriving to departure at La Flora Hotel, my family was made to feel welcome by the Staff and the service continued to be excellent throughout our stay. The hotel is conveniently located to the heart of the action in Patong, but far enough away not to be a disturbance, and the hotel opens out onto Patong beach, with some wonderful scenic views. The breakfast area is well laid out with good service and a variety of Western and Asian food to choose from. The rooms are showing their age a bit, but are well maintained, clean and comfortable. I have seen some fairly mixed reviews about the hotel, some good, some bad, but overall I only had good experiences while staying at La Flora. I would highly recommend.

Seclusion in the middle of the action”

my husband and i had a great stay at la flora in patong beach in phuket. some people say patong beach is too busy, but la flora magically provides a quiet haven in the absolute center of patong, so i thought it was a great place to spend a couple days on my first trip to thailand and phuket. la flora is one step to the beach and one step to shops and restaurants. the rooms were very clean and the service was great. also, it was great to get good discounts from agoda.

Stay on Patong Beach”

There are a lot of hotels in Patong but, not many located right on the beach, which the La Flora is. So, you couldn't ask for a better location. In addition, the properties two swimming pools are fantastic, I think 50 meters in length or, very close to it so, great for lap swimming. In addition, the layout of the hotel around these two pools, with rooms having direct access to the pools from their verandas, is really nice. The staff is also very helpful and friendly. However, it does market itself as a 5-star resort but, there were definite signs of age (wear and tear) at the resort, largely due to its proximity to the sea and effects of the climate there on wood and other building materials. The hotel will need to invest in the near future to renovate/upgrade its facilities to continue providing a 5-star experience for its guests.

Lovely and good service hotel”

I stayed at pool access in this and find this pool only accessible by very few out of the total of rooms of la flora. As other rooms has their own pool access. Their breakfast is fabulous as it comes with sushi and smoke salmon together with a nice environment. Furthermore, staffs and receptionist are friendly to serve us during our stay. They are helpful anytime. The best thing I thumb up about this hotel is the drinks eg:beers, apple and orange juice etc are complimentary. Location is just a stone throw to the patong which is the most crowded and happening place in phuket. Numerous restaurants to choose from and night market surrounding.

Best in Patong!”

This is at least my 12th visit to Phuket but 1st time staying in this resort. Absolutely no complaints! We were particularly pleased with the short hair lady who helped us with the check in (didn't catch her name, think it's Leetafah or Lateefah). Usually we will have to call the day before check out to ask if we can get a late check out. She anticipated our needs by asking us what time was our flight home and initiated to put in the late check out request. She even informed us that if late check out is not possible, she will provide a shower room for us to freshen up before we head to the airport. Molly brought us to our pool villa. It was huge and clean! Everything inside is free, including beer and coffee which they will top up once a day. The only issue was there were lots of ants near the pool but they don't come into the room. The location was great, less than 5 mins walk to Bangla and 1 min away from the beach! On the last night of our stay, there was heavy rain and the ceiling of our living room was leaking. The manager on duty quickly came over with towels and more free drinks for us and they got someone to fix it from the rooftop. To our pleasant surprise, Pui, the duty manager informed us on the next day that due to the inconvenience we experienced, they will extend late check out to 5pm. And what's more? They upgraded our airport transfer from mini van to a mercedes limo! While waiting for the limo at the hotel lobby, I was feeling really hot and was sweating. The male duty manager quickly brought us 2 icy cold towels to freshen up! I was really impressed with their attention to details and the way they anticipated their client's needs. Thanks to all the staff in La Flora for making this stay so wonderful and relaxing for us!

Good location and service”

Hubby & I booked a pool villa with loft for 3D2N and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. La Flora resort is a small boutique hotel that's tucked in the midst of the busy patong beach. Despite that, it's not that noisy within the resort. Service was good from the moment we arrived. We were asked to choose the fragrance of the aromatherapy oil & choice of music CDs. We were also told that the mini bar will be refilled daily and it's free. We love our pool villa, small but cosy. The jacuzzi bath tub was indeed a plus point for us to relax in. The private pool however was a bit disappointing, It's really small but I guess it's still ok for us in the end. We ordered room service twice and were pleasantly surprised by the standard of the food. Normally, we do not expect great food from room service but hubby & I actually enjoyed our food and hence the 2nd round. The hotel location is great because just across the street, there are plenty of seafood restaurants and another 10mins walk would bring you to the Junceylon Mall. we definitely enjoyed our stay at La Flora and wouldn't mind coming back again.

La Flora, Phuket Thailand Review”

La flora is a beautiful hotel located at Patong beach. It's the only ocean front hotel at Patong beach. We really enjoyed our stay there. The breakfast buffet every morning is delicious and the evening restaurant is superb with fresh seafood and fish cooked to your liking. We were greeted with fresh coconut drink during our check in and the bell boys would stop the traffic so that you can cross the street. The only con is the price of the hotel. We paid and though it was a very nice hotel, we feel that it is a little overpriced. But overall, our stay was excellent. We enjoy being in the middle of everything-shopping, restaurants, bars, nightclubs. The pool area also has very little space to lay out and hang out with your friends.

Terrific hotel with wonderful staff”

from the moment we walked into the lobby, the staff were so very friendly and accommodating, making it a marvelous stay. upon entry, you get the lovely cool face towels and then you select your room scent; who doesn't like feeling like you're a star? then, the excellent manager took my kids to the adjacent library to select some dvds while we filled out the paperwork. the complimentary restocked minibar brought a real smile to my husband's face...breakfast was excellent with great cappuccinos and chocolate croissants, egg station etc. i could sit and linger over the paper while the kids jumped in the pool. and even though it is in the center of patong, once you close the door to your room, you actually don't hear it! access to the beach is very easy, just out the back door. some say patong is not for kids, but if you like small boutique hotels and you stay at la flora, you will change your mind.

Highly recomanded”

We arrived early due to our flight schedule, surprisingly they still allowed us to check in at around 9am although their check in time is 2pm. Moreover the check in only spent me about 10 minutes with serving me a refreshing pineapple juice! Front desk staffs are helpful, friendly and can speak English which make our stay became more pleasant. Room are comfortable and clean, provided with all your necessary need. They allow us to bring out the beach towels for our island hopping tour. On our last day stay, we have a morning safari tour which will back to hotel after the check out time, so the staff suggested us to check out when we leave for our tour at 7am and left our luggages at reception. Nothing to worry because when back from our tour they still provided us a hotel room for us to bath and change. Hotel location is fantastic, we didn't take any Tuk-Tuk during our explore in Patong because all areas are within walking distance. Another big surprise was when we dined in Savour we had given 10% discount on our bill just because we are La Flora hotel guests! ( We never been informed by hotel staffs but was the waitress in Savour spotted us by the hotel umbrellas brought along by us that time, must again give my compliment to the nice waitress). I had a happy stay and will definitely return and recommend to all my friends.

Perfect Stay!”

I booked this hotel because of the consistently good reviews it got on this website and they were well deserved. I didn't realize that Phuket would be sooo hot and humid in April and it was so refreshing to be given a cold towel and chilled coconut upon check-in. We got to the hotel by 9 am and they allowed us to check in right away. We had a lovely dlx pool-view room which was absolutely spotless (and that is the most important thing to me). We could see the sea from our balcony too which was an added and unexpected bonus. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the buffet breakfast had lots of choice and a fresh juice bar. The only thing I found to be a little bit of a turn-off was that by the time we got to breakfast, usually around 9, the meats, cheeses and sushi didn't seem very appetizing or fresh. If the staff could find a way to keep those items cooler, it would be much more appealing. The ease with which one could access the beach was great and the proximity to all activity and nightlife couldn't have been better. I would highly recommend La Flora.

La Flora Patong”

Overall La Flora was the best all round hotel package we found whilst staying in Thailand. Very friendly personalized service right in the heart of Patong. Step outside into the bustling world of Patong and return to your beautiful hotel to unwind. The Surface (rooftop) bar is a must at night. Free Internet with Wi-Fi capabilities to keep in touch with loved ones whilst on holiday. The Pros definitely out weigh the Cons. Can't wait to return to La Flora, Patong.

Nice Hotel”

la flora is a great hotel, good service, nice room, good breakfast. the location of la flora is excellent, few second to patong beach and few mins to the center of patong. it is a really really good hotel. and i am sure i will stay in la flora when i go phuket next time.

I really liked this hotel”

I moved to La Flora hotel after I left 2 other hotels that I didn't like in Patong. I had such a big dissapointment from the other hotels and when I arrived to La Flora the things was really different. The hotel was modern and clean, the service was great, the location was the best, and even the breakfast was reasonable. The only problem was the high prices of food and any extra, I also saw people that argue with the front desk that charge them lot of money for bringing guest to the room (I think Thailand is the only country that the hotels charge you extra for bringig visitors even if they don't stay for the night)

luxury facility, nice staff, close to everywhere”

La Flora gave us the best experience in Phuket. even though we arrived there 2hours early, our room was ready. nice staff, very good English speaking. Patong beach is just in front of hotel backyard, close to every popular restaurant, better to book pool access room or suite room. reasonable price.
