Mr. Sulaiman Mukahhal 2009-05-19	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach The only good thing about this hotel is its location, and everything thing else is just BAD, they have the worst service i ever had in Thailand, The reception is so rude and shouting, it all started by one girl shouting at me about 1 people, and i have no idea until another gentlaman came to explain that i have a reservation for 1 person only. They need to learn how to speak english. Also it took them 30 min to finish my room, The room was smiley, and the toileo ok don t let me start. I am a regular traveler to Thailand and i was shocked. Even i can pay less for much better hotels, and now i regret and i will never again pay in advance.
Duke Way 2009-03-31	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Hotel location is perfect to the party scene. However, the staff not too friendly to Thai people. I am Thai and my husband is a foreigner. Total we had 3 foreigners and 4 Thai people. They were not very polite to their own people. Rooms are okay, not the best, not like the pictures. You re basically paying for the location not for the rooms.	Excellent, would deal with again.
Edith English 2009-03-19	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach room and hotel grounds were very well maintained, relaxing, service great. If you are looking for a place to stay that is right on the beach, this is a great choice	booking through the hotels website required a minimum of a three night stay. Booking through Sawadee.com I was able to get a two night stay. Since 2003, I have been booking all my hotel stays in Thailand with Sawadee.com. Reservations have always been without any issues.
Rina Yaakobovitch 2009-02-02	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Very good hotel, right on the beach.You have to pay for the chairs and umbrellas. The location is superb, the sea, as expected in Phuket is clean and cristal clear.There were a lot of water sports activities on the beach. We stayed in Junior suite on first floor by the pool. It was a nice room but it could be larger. The water pressure was poor in the bathroom.I feel that it was expensive comparing to the value we got. The breakfeast buffet was OK..
David Oastler 2009-01-09	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach We had such a wonderful stay at Patong Bay Garden Resort the location was great right in the heart of Bangla road. The staff were terrific and very helpful and friendly. The hotel is right on the beach and it also has a great pool. The rooms were very nice and clean. I will be going back to stay there again very soon. Kerrie and David from Bacchus Marsh Australia.	Terrific service
CST 2008-05-01 until 2008-05-04	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Very disappointed with the hotel transfer did not turn up at the airport though had called and arranged with the hotel way back in march before the arrival; just had to hire the transport from the ariport and it s good that it charged lower than the hotel s offered. Hotel staff was not so friendly, only few brought smiles on their faces when they saw you. Room was upgraded from Deluxe City View to Deluxe Balcony upon check-in. Room located at highest floor, however, you re able to hear noise like dragging chair from another floor up. The ala-cart food ordered from the hotel new resturant by the beach was horrible though given a 10% discount coupon. The waitress assumed they understood the order requirement. Will never go there for dinning except the breakfast was good, menu changed daily. Beach view was good. Overall, hotel is ok with more improvements need to be done.	Good service and prompt response.
Herriott/Bache 2008-02-05 until 2008-02-08	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach I was impressed with the Patong bay garden resort for a number of things. The position is unbeatable the staff were helpful and pleasant all the time the shower room available if you are leaving late was most appreciated. The rooms were spotless and quite soundproof and the beds really comfortable. Breakfast was also quite good and as for having your dining room at the beach you cant beat that. We really enjoyed our stay and if I go back to Phuket it would be my first choice as I have now stayed in quite a few hotels and it was the most enjoyable.	The booking service was excellent and we did not have a problem. Thank you
Eugene West, MD 2008-01-28 until 2008-01-31	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach This is the only hotel directly on the Patong beach. However, this establishment is a smelly, poorly managed second rate place that may have been more pleasant in the past. the US$250.00 Adaman Studio was so malodorous that we though that there may have been a death in the room prior to our arrival The so-called aroma therapy was even more impossible then the permeating suer stench. The staff seemed to be well familiar with the problems and were prepared to do absolutely nothing about them. The check in was particularly unpleasant as we were lied to by Ms. M, the duty manager who insisted on our taking an inferior room that was priced at 50% less then what was booked. She claimed the booked room was :damaged until we insisted on getting what was booked. Lowlife Russian guests did not help the experience. Please take your money somewhere else!	Booking service was ok.
John Saller 2007-10-23 until 2007-10-30	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach This Hotel is situated right on the beach in Patong, very close to Bangla road(but not too close). The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and our rooms(Deluxe City view) were quiet, clean and roomy. The pool is really nice and it s a short stroll onto the beach. They are currently building a bar/resturant on the beach side of the hotel so it will be even better once completed. I loved my time here in Phuket and I will definately be staying here again next year.	Excellent rates, easy booking. I will definately use Sawadee again next year.
Corinne Miniken 2007-10-14 until 2007-10-22	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Great location, close to shopping, nightlife and right on the beach. We had great room with balcony looking onto pool area but not all rooms do and are not so nice. Staff friendly and helpful, breakfast great. Some renovations still being undertaken which made it quite noisy beside the pool during the day. Overall good value for money and great location.	Excellent, fast and easy. Would use again.
Mark Grant 2007-10-06 until 2007-10-07	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Well if you want to stay at Patong beach and be close to everything and right on the beach look no further!!!! We booked 3 Adaman rooms and they are great drinks on the sand every night. NIce hotel and after they finsih the renovations all will be perfect. I would be back. Breakfast is nice!!!! very relaxed!!!
Sunshine Andria Black 2007-09-28 until 2007-09-30	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach This hotel is one of the few hotels right on the beach in Patong with a great location. The entry way is kind of misleading, but once you enter the lobby it is like you are in a different world. The rooms are nice and clean and give a very boutique feel. The breakfast buffet was awesome but the spa wasn t up to par. The hotel staff was all very sweet as well as the travel agent who will book all the Phuket tours for you..much better than finding travel agents on the street. The beach in front of the hotel is the nicest part of Patong, some areas can be a little muddy. The hotel is right down the street from the main party scene with bars full of lady boys and cocktail waitresses alike..you can never really tell the difference! We will definitely stay here again!	Fast and easy!
Kenneth Kapp 2007-09-17 until 2007-09-19	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach As in much of tsunami devastated Thailand, re-construction was continuing here as of 9/07 and it was annoying. The room (jr suite, oceanfront) location was great. Good staff. Central Patong Beach location. I enjoyed stepping from my room to the sand and having no street noise. Good value, but chek on construction noise as of 9/07.
sarah wong 2007-09-12 until 2007-09-15	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Location very good, staffs are friendly.Room was very clean.	Excellent.
Jeffrey Johnson 2007-09-04 until 2007-09-07	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach One of only a few hotels right on the beach, which makes it very desirable.Nice clean rooms, pool, and great breakfast with friendly staff.Do not get a city view room. The street noise is so loud you cannot sleep.	Worked well
Atul Harkisanka 2007-09-01 until 2007-09-04	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Hi all, I stayed at BayGarden from 1-4 Sep. The major benefit this hotel has is its location, it is situated right on the Patong beach and very close to Soi Bangla. It is also within walking distance to Jung Ceylong (the newest huge shopping mall in Phuket) and numerous restaurants and road side shops. But we were not impressed with the facilities at the hotel. The rooms and bathrooms are small with bare minimum facilities, the photos on the website are misleading. The service in the hotel is pretty ordinary, the recep staff and the bell boys were just ok and not very friendly. I have stayed at other places in Phuket (and generally Thailand) where the staff have been much more welcoming and hospitable. In summary, if you can compromise on the facilities and service for the location this is a good place to stay. Personally, I would try the numerous other hotels around the Patong area on my next visits to Phuket.	Excellent as always. I have been to Thailand around 9-10 times now and always used Sawadee. No complaints, quick response and overall 10/10 !!
Maggie Rogers 2007-08-17 until 2007-08-18	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Hotel is good location but some rooms are a little tatty. Our room particularly smelt very badly of cigaratte smoke despite booking a no smoking one. Buffet breakfast excellent. Still building work by the pool but didnt affect us too much. Staff helpful and friendly.	good, very easy, no problems.
Trevor Mckew 2007-08-03 until 2007-08-10	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Small, lots of mozzis, noisy due to renovation happening on the beach, over priced and not what we expected. As we had a child it was not very child friendly. Would not recommend to our friends.	Great service, easy to navigate and the prices were better than you could get locally.
Mr. Benjamin C J 2007-07-02 until 2007-07-03	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Was upgraded from deluxe city view room to deluxe balcony pool view room upon check-in. The room is big and comfortable with beautiful thai style interior design. Hotel has good location where it is located right on the beach, not across the beach road like most others are and also very closed to all the nightlife in Patong. Has a nice pool-area and the staff are professional and helpful. Buffet breakfast was good with variety of food. Had to pay for Internet wireless connection inside room which should be free to all who stay there. All in all a very pleasant stay and would recommend to others who like to stay in a hotel located right on the Patong beach.	Extremely good service.
Martin Angell-Olsen 2007-06-30 until 2007-07-06	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach We booked a Junior Suite and was a bit disappointed. The room was rather small and you cant be higher than 6 2 because of the low ceiling in the room. There was also terribel smell of mold in the room. We talked to the reception and they gave us a Andeman Suite which was very nice. Other then our problem it was a ok hotel with nice and helpfull staff.	Excellent
Henrik Palmquist 2007-06-18 until 2007-06-22	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach I have stayed at Patong Bay Garden 3 times now. It is by far the best hotel I have stayed at in Patong. So to be selfish - I really dont want to write to many good things, because every time I go there it is harder and harder to find a room. Now even in low season it is fully booked. I can just imagine how it will be in december. This hotel has a fabulous location right by the beach, a great pool from where you see the ocean, the rooms are absolutely beautiful, the staff very professional and helpful - and the prices are very good compared to whats being delivered. I really hope it will be possible to come back.	Always great, fast and accurate.
Richard Adams 2007-05-10 until 2007-05-13	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach This was my second visit to the hotel. I was not able to get the standard of room that I had on the first occasion, and I found the city view accommodation to be rather gloomy, drab and not very well equipped. Otherwise, my stay was pleasant, with especially good service from the tour desk. The staff, however, as last time, seemed to be a little distant and unfriendly.	Sawadee s booking service is second to none
Vicki Morley 2007-05-09 until 2007-05-18	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach The room was a great size and we were very happy with our stay there, they cleaned daily and very friendly staff. Buffet breakfast was great too.
Rudy Hall 2007-04-18 until 2007-04-28	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach This was my 3rd stay at Patong Bay Gardens Resort and will stay again. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help. The rooms are clean and well maintained. The setting on the beach is very nice and with a beach view room is very relaxing and enjoyable. I highly recommend the Resort.	This is the 2nd time I have used them and will use them again for other bookings in Thailand.
Mr. Rune Lygren 2007-03-22 until 2007-03-25	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Nice and quiet resort in a good location right on the beach and wery closed to all the nightlife in patong, just 50m from Bangla Road. Breakfast was good, room was clean, but some maintinance have to be done. The pictures looks nicer then it is in real. 3 nights on this location is ok, not more. All in all a very nice stay and will stay again on my next visit to Patong.	Wery good, no problem.
Paul Manthorpe 2007-02-12 until 2007-02-22	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Stayed for 10 nights in Feburary and found this resort in an excellent location right on the beach and closed to all the nightlife patong has to offer. Great day spa and massage services at reasonable rates. If stairs are a problem ensure you get a room on the ground level as these have no stairs. Food was good room was clean and the service was generally good. All in all a very pleasant stay and would recommend to others and stay again on my next visit to Phuket.	Excellent, No problems at all with booking on line with the room ready for my arrival.
Karen German 2007-01-30 until 2007-02-01	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Great location, great service, wonderful hotel. Well worth the money! We have already recommended to many!	No problems.
Lisa Clingan 2007-01-23 until 2007-01-26	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach The hotel is in a wonderful location as it is right on the beach. However when we arrived at the hotel we were informed that they were overbooked and wanted to move us to another hotel for one night of our three night stay. We were not impressed and after much discussion a room became available. The hotel itself is nice and the breakfast is very good.	Excellent service that we would have no hesitation to use again in the future.
John Pavloff 2006-12-24 until 2007-01-04	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach I ve stayed at numerous hotels in Patong over the past 15 years and this hotel is by far the best in terms of location and value for money. Everything you need is in walking distance and the beach is literally on the back doorstep. Service was good with plenty of customary Thai smiles. Rooms are clean and comfortable. I will definately be back next year. Highly recommended.	Booking service was very good except for a mix up with my flight arrival details which was resolved without any problems.
HM 2006-12-17 until 2006-12-20	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Front desk staffs are nice & freindly. Although the hotel is in small skill but service is good & the room is clean & comfortable. Food were average	Extremely good service & I will definately use their service again
Teng Chong Gee 2006-11-04 until 2006-11-06	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Nice and great place to stay in. One of the best hotel location on Patong beach. Closest to the beach you ever get. Friendly staff.	Good.
2006-10-14 until 2006-10-17	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Hotel is great, but i guess the breakfast can be improved with more variety of food.	I have actually booked the airport transfer as well as the hotel. However, my airport transfer was not processed. And i have to call the hotel to make my own booking for airport transfer. Guess this can be improved.
Daniel Shearer 2006-10-12 until 2006-10-16	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach What a stay! The hotel needs a few changes. But all in all it s a grande place to stay. Internet cost to much & should be free to all that stay there. But the service was top of the line. & did I say it s right on the beach? Not across the beach road like all the others are. Right in the heart of town & quite. The food, was outstanding. We fish the inlands & the Chef cooked our catch for us. the catch was over 100 kilo s. So don t miss the fishing. Sar booked the trip for us in the office. she made sure our Wahoo & tuna was cooked in many diffreant Thia styles. It was sooooo great. Patong has fun for eveyone. And it s inexpenive too! the managing Director is Mr. Preechavude Keesin & his Father Mr. Pian Keesin is Mayor of Patong. Great guys to talk with. This is a good deal for the money.	Had no probelm with the booking. learned many things from there website.
Trevor Hayward 2006-09-29 until 2006-10-03	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Excellently located in Patong and right on the beach. The beach restaurant serves very good food at reasonable rates. Hotel staff and Tour desk provide excellent service. Only negative is if you get a Balcony room overlooking a wall (there are 4 of them)- beware.	Very good
Kjell Arne Gøranson 2006-03-07 until 2006-03-08	Patong Bay Garden Resort, Patong Beach Perfect location on the beach, and everything Patong has to offer. Very helpful and friendly staff. We were upgraded beacause the supreme rooms were fully booked. Beautiful rooms with thai style. Nice pool-area. Recommended! We will come back for sure.	Very good!
