Fodor's "This is arguably Phuket Town's best address, with rooms that are spacious and contemporary. The hotel exemplifies art deco chic, and the staff is attentive, professional, and courteous." Full review
Lonely Planet "Phuket's swankiest business-style outfit offers all the usual thrills and spills: pool, sauna, spa, zebra-print disco." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This is mainly a businessman’s hotel, so it offers efficiency, practicality, and good value, rather than a laid-back holiday atmosphere."
Rough Guide "Large, high-rise business hotel, with large swimming pool, gym, business centre and light, bright, comfortable a/c rooms, most of them with fine views over the city and all with broadband."
Frommer's "For a small town like Phuket, this hotel is surprisingly cosmopolitan and ideal for those who are looking for some nice facilities without breaking the bank" Full review
