The Arbern Hotel X Bistro

I stayed at Arbern Hotel for 5 nights and really enjoyed it. The property has a nice modern loft style, and although my room was not very big, it felt cozy and even had a big balcony. The staff were very friendly and helpful – for example, my kettle wasn’t working when I checked in, and they immediately brought me a new one without any hassle. The bed felt a bit unusual (one side seemed slightly higher than the other), but it wasn’t a big issue for me. Housekeeping came every day, and they always provided fresh water and tea/coffee. The room was quiet, with a lovely view of the mountain and temples. The location is excellent for exploring Phuket Old Town. There’s a bus stop right outside (with a route to the airport), and plenty of cafes, massage places, and a 7/11 within walking distance. Wi-Fi worked well. Breakfast wasn’t included, but there’s a café on the ground floor where you can eat for a reasonable price. The only thing that surprised me was the early check-out time at 10:30, but the staff kindly let me leave my luggage at the lobby for a few hours after checking out. Overall, I think the price is absolutely worth it. It’s a great hotel in the heart of Phuket Town, and tour operators had no problem picking me up directly from the hotel for excursions. Highly recommend.

Super nice hotel, very clean, about 5-10 minutes walk to the old town. Rooms are very comfortable, staff is nice.

Very good location, nice room and friendly staff
