Let down at the last moment which was such a shame
Was a fantastic stay, but sadly it was let down at the last minute at check out. My partner dropped a mall bit of kebab meat on the sheet on the last night which left a small mark of chilli sauce the size of a 50p coin on the sheet. At check out they insisted on bringing the sheet to reception to show me and my partner the terrible deed along with every person who walked through the area on the way out of the hotel. They then spoke very loudly that it would need to be sent out for deep cleaning and tried to ask for 200B. Now as they only charge 50B per kilo for laundry I was not impressed at the charge. It was not about the £4:59 cost but the way they went about it considering we did not have room service for five days, I think putting a bit of vanish on the stain which offended them so much was not a big ask. I agreed to give them 100B and left the hotel as we had a taxi waiting for us. Let’s be realistic, we were in Patong in a three star hotel where there were a significant amount of single men with different lady friends each night and day (this did not offend us) and I am sure they have had much more to deal with than a little chilli sauce spillage.

Good stay if on a budget
Good place to stay, only 5 minutes walk to Bangala Road and 10 minutes to the beach. Small complex so a bit more personal than the big resorts, though this time the staff weren’t as friendly as the staff there a few years ago. No longer a spa onsite but there are plenty just out on the street. Breakfast is blah, needs to improve, but the restaurant meals are good. Small pool but it’s lovely to relax in. Complex is very clean, but needs a good update. Wouldn’t pay full price, but worth it if you get a good discount.

The stay was good. The hotel looks nice, and had everything u need for a short stay, but found some ants in the toilet. We didn’t use any of the facilities, but the swimming pool looks good, saw some guests enjoying it during the day, however as we just need to spend the night for shower and sleep, so it is worth the money. The location is good, 12 mins walk to patong beach area. But after this we changed to a big resort in Rawai that we could actually use the facilities. So it wasn’t fair to compare.

Relaxing Stay
The Viridian resort was value for money, the staff were friendly and and couldn't be more accommodating. some areas need updating which from what i saw looks like they are slowly doing, it would be nice if the pool lounges had cushions on them because after a while they become uncomfortable, breakfast was O/K but mixing it up a bit would be good. All in all it was centrally located for our requirements easy walking distance to Bangla Rd, Jungcelyon shopping centre and the beach. My wife and myself would definitely stay there again

This is my third stay at this hotel. They appear to be refurbishing rooms. Rooms are clean, and my last room had separate shower recess and toilet which is good, this is not consistant in every room, and is not advertised as an option when booking a room. Overall happy with stay and staff.

Central, reasonable price, great service
Chose this accommodation as the main purpose of our trip was to have dental work done. It was bacically across the road- but what was a pleasant suprise. It is a lovely little resort. No noise considering in is right in the hub of Patong Beach and walking distance to all you need. The staff work hard to ensure your to stay is great. The pool and grounds are maintained every day and even though we had a problem with the air conditioning the staff worked on resolving the problem and we were moved next door when this became a larger job. Once relocated, our vacant first room was given a full overhaul. Even the balcony was cleaned with a high pressure cleaner. The rooms were spotless, serviced every day and we would have no hesitation in recommending or rebooking ourselves.

Good value for money
Stayed here three nights and it was quite good although wifi not very strong. Staff okay, only hotel we have stayed in so far where they take your key at checkout and race up to your room to make sure you haven't damaged anything, found this a bit over the top as it is quite an old resort. Overall I would say it is good value for money.
Response from Praewa on 30 Jul 2017
Hello Dianne!! We're so happy you enjoyed your stay at our resort! We;re in the process of trying to upgrade our wifi and make it much better all over the resort. As for the mad dash to your room, we are sorry it made things awkward. The staff was merely checking the minibar rather than any damages to the room. Normally the housekeeping on standby on your floor would do this but they were most likely otherwise occupied at the time. We're glad you were satisfied with the stay. Hopefully you will choose to stay with us again next time you're in Phuket!!

Disgrace
Thanks very much ! What a disgusting place . As soon as I arrived i was hit with unexpected charges.The manager spoke to me like I was some sort low life . If you are going to charge extra to bring friends to your hotel , put that on your web page . If you recieve a booking that says " smoking room a must " and you dont have smoking rooms , dont accept the booking ! I had insect lavae crawl over me during the middle of the night .! A disgrece . I dont recommend this place to anyone .

Great location nice clean budget hotel
Great location, close to Bangla Rd and shopping centre not far to walk to beach. Very clean rooms with very friendly and approachable staff. I read reviews of hotel prior to going and I was put off by what I read. In my view, the negative reviews and comments I read were totally not what we experienced! The staff speak excellent English, are always smiling and friendly and I personally watched them manage a number of very aggressive guests which they did so in a highly professional but firm manner. Breakfast was buffet and replenished quickly and caters fall all nationalities. My only negatives, if I had to be picky, was the main pool is very deep (1.6m no shallow area) although they do have a children's pool and my bed was very very firm. In future I won't read reviews and take them at face value as we had a great time at this hotel.
