Why book Best Western Patong Beach
Best Western Patong sits in Patong's shopping district, a few minutes from Jungceylon mall and roughly 15 minutes on foot to the beach and Bangla Road. That distance is a feature, not a bug: rooms are noticeably quieter at night than properties closer to the bar strip, so light sleepers actually rest. The pool is modest but uncrowded, and the on-site restaurant means you don't need to hunt for breakfast on travel mornings. Loyalty travelers can earn and redeem BWR points here, which is rare in independent-heavy Patong. Standard rooms are clean and functional; pay up one tier for a refurbished room if photos of dated decor put you off.
Why you might skip it
It's not beachfront — 15 minutes walking with bags or in heat is real, and most guests end up taking a tuk-tuk to and from the beach daily. Some standard rooms feel dated, the pool is small for a 4-star, and breakfast isn't included on every rate.
Best room types
- Deluxe Room — refurbished category, worth the upgrade
- Family Room — extra space for parents with kids near the mall
- Superior Room — cheapest entry for BWR points-collectors
