8/10 Very good
7 November 2024
Great location
A large hotel in central Patong, Amata Patong is in a great location - close enough to the Bangla Road party and Patong Beach to be convenient while just far enough away to not be in the middle of the craziness.
My room was on the north side of the hotel, a separate wing with its own elevator. This side of the hotel seemed a bit older.
There was no window in my room (except for a small frosted vent in the bathroom), so if that's important to you make sure you confirm a window. A wooden door led to a small balcony overlooking the alley behind; I didn't use it.
Unfortunately, I found that wing of the hotel noisy, especially during the day. The hallway echoes the noise from the cleaning staff, painters, and other guests. Nighttime was generally quiet.
The bed was comfortable, the room clean, and the bathroom, while a little cramped, was very good. I liked the shower stall, which offered lots of hot water.
I do not recommend the restaurant for breakfast. It's pricey and the food was not heated through. I had to complain about the watery coffee and cold food the first time I went there and staff worked to make improvements. The omelette bar was the one saving grace, as you could get fresh, hot food there. I heard several guests complain about the breakfast.
There are many alternatives for breakfast in the area, though Patong lacks the café culture that's so glorious in other parts of Thailand.
Amata Patong has two beautiful pools and I took advantage of both.
