Located in the tropical paradise of Phuket's Western coast on a secluded cove, Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort is set amidst 40 acres of lush foliage, sprawling golden sands, and the emerald Andaman Sea. A mining centre during the 16th century, Phuket employed many Hakka Chinese miners, and China's rich cultural influence can still be seen on the island today as well as the colourful influences of Portuguese explorers. The hotel features six meeting rooms, two lagoon-size swimming pools, four tennis courts, a pair of air-conditioned squash courts, a world-class spa, a variety of land and sea sports facilities, a discovery centre for kids, and a historic Margaret Lee cruiser that offers unique cruise adventures. 10 restaurants and bars allow for a gastronomic journey around the globe. The 417 superior rooms and 53 luxury suites are enriched with a local Thai design, complementing the resort's tropical setting. These, along with superb amenities, provide creative holidays that are delivered with comfort. The resort is just minutes away from some of the celebrated sites of Phuket, including the lively shopping and restaurant district of Patong, the 29 ornate temples that dot the island, hiking trails through ancient limestone caverns, and scuba diving through the Andaman Sea's translucent indigo waters.

Could of done with more free drinking

Could of done with more free drinking water. It is unsafe to drink the tap water in Phuket. You only get 2 free bottles water a day the rest you have to buy and it is expensive at the resort. Apart for that is a great place to stay.

Great location, not a great hotel.

Half way through my stay the hotel painted the room next door which sent powerful fumes into my room. I was graciously upgraded from a garden to a sea view room. Then the trouble began. It was an adjoining room and my neighbors were a very loud family. For three straight nights, my TV went on automatically at 4:30 am. I reported this to the hotel staff twice and they assured me that nothing was wrong. After three straight unwanted wake up calls my restful Thai vacation was over.

Great private beach

We went for a few days for our honeymoon. If you want to go to Phuket for the beaches, this is perfect because there is a large, private beach. The bathrooms were old but the rooms were clean.

Satisfactory!

Overall, it was pleasant and satisfactory. However, we were slightly disappointed by the degree of attention with respect to certain matters. For example, upon check-in, we issued a credit card for incidentals and the like. The person who took down this information made a mistake by failing to write down the correct credit card number. This resulted in an unexpected letter from the hotel advising that our credit card was no good. We advised them of their error, which they corrected, but this caused unnecessary worry and time to rectify as we had to call our credit card company to ensure that there was nothing wrong with our credit card. We were advised by the hotel that they would not charge us for the phone calls since they were caused by the hotel worker's inattention. However, upon check-out, the hotel invoice still included charges for these phone calls. Eventually, the hotel corrected this error as well, but it caused us further unnecessary delay. We would expect the hotel and its staff to pay more attention to detail as part of our experience staying at a hotel of their caliber.

Es war einmal...

Das Le Meridian war lange Zeit ein super Hotel der oberen Klasse mit entsprechenden Gästen. Leider hat sich das Publikum verändert und Pauschaltouristen füllen nun das Hotel. Zimmer sind bei Ankunft nicht bereit, die Sauberkait lässt zu wünschen übrig und das Personal an der Reception ist völlig überfordert. Mehr als drei Sterne können dem Hotel nicht mehr gegeben werden.

スタッフの対応がとても親切なので驚きました。ホテルの中にプー

スタッフの対応がとても親切なので驚きました。ホテルの中にプールやプライベートビーチがあるのでホテル内だけでも十分レジャーを楽しめます。 あと、タイのソンクランという祭日に行ったのですが、夜の食事がバイキング形式になっていて、ロブスターやカニなどの海鮮物から、ステーキなどのお肉類まで幅広い豪華な食事を、楽しいショーを見ながら満喫できました。 また、ホテル内のいろんな所にある、喫茶店やバーなどで注文を頼んだ時に、現金を持っていなくても部屋番号と名前とサインだけで後払いできるのも親切なシステムでした このホテルで良かったと本当に思いました。とても楽しい旅行になりました。
