Loved it.. I stayed in a poolside room, the bed was comfortable, the air conditioner was excellent and the shower hot! The location is excellent, so close to Bangla but so quiet! The staff were just wonderful. I did think the price was a bit high... but, after reading other reviews, maybe I am wrong on that count. I'd definitely... More

Excellent reasonably priced hotel close to Bangla Road yet in a quiet location. Prices are about £25 per night for the best rooms in low season. These have a balcony by the pool. The beds are comfortable and roomy and the bathroom is a walk in wet room. Very clean and the staff are friendly. What more could you ask... More

The Expat Hotel is the only place I will ever stay when visiting Phuket. Right from the day we made a reservation we somehow knew we were going to the right place for our first visit to Phuket. When we arrived with the minibus arranged by the reservation department at 10:00 p.m. it surprised us. We feel completely secluded from... More

I stayed here earlier this month for 3 days. Very comfortable room, friendly staff from reception to room maids. Restuarant food was good and reasonably priced with a nice outside setting and great pool. I can see why this hotel has achieved an excellent status, it ticks all the boxes. I would definately stay here again in the future. More

Every Saturday night at 7.30 for 190 baht (Australian $6) you can enjoy a great BBQ and salads at the Ex Pat Hotel in Patong. Heaps to eat, pool tables and a great location. Less than 3 minutes from Bangla Road. We've been there a few times, and now make it our Saturday night spot for dinner and drinks. Give... More

For the cost of staying here, the location is perfect with very close access to a great beach, loads of beach restaurants and bars. Even though it's right at the center of the hustling and bustling area it is unbelievably quiet and is perfect for a relaxing break for a few days. The rooms are clean and the staff just... More

Stayed there with some friends for a few nights. The big plus of Expat hotel is its proximity to Bangla Road and all the nightlfe, if that is what you're here for. The hotel is clearly geared towards the male customer. Rooms are ok but don't expect too much. Bed are large and matresses firm. In my room, the safe... More

I stayed at Expat from December 22-29, 2011. I can safely say that given the price range, it is one of the best hotels I have stayed at. Let me mention below the pros and cons of the hotel. Pros: 1) Great great location. You can easily walk to the beach, not to mention the markets, the malls and all... More
