The Royal Palm Beach Front
Situated directly on Thaweewong Road in Patong, The Royal Palm Beach Front is a hotel offering immediate access to one of Phuket's busiest and most well-known beach stretches. Guests step out of the property straight onto the beachfront road, with shops, restaurants, and the Andaman Sea within easy reach. The central Patong location makes it a practical base for travellers who want to be in the middle of the action without spending time commuting to the beach. Rooms are described by guests as nicely set up and clean, with some offering front-facing views over Patong Beach. Free breakfast is a consistently noted highlight, with the hotel accommodating requests such as packed meals for early departures. Staff are generally noted as friendly and helpful. It is worth knowing that the building has no elevator, which means carrying luggage up stairs — a consideration for those travelling with heavy bags or mobility concerns. Some rooms have limited natural light. Good to know: The property sits in the heart of busy Patong, so noise and crowds are part of the experience, particularly during high season from November to February. Guests with early check-in requirements are advised to confirm room availability in advance, as wait times have been reported on arrival. No website is currently listed, so booking through a third-party platform and contacting the hotel directly to confirm arrangements before arrival is recommended.

Visitor Reviews
Nice location, Just in front of beach. Very comfortable when I stayed with my family. Very clean room. Friendly staff and always ready to help. We had flight in mid night and they packed our breakfast. That was truly amazing.
Good hotel..but not elevator 😟😰..No lifts was a little strange thing for me. We had to carry some of our luggage to the room ourselves with no lifts. Good breakfast, front view of Patong beach, just a road cross takes you to the beach.Clean rooms and descent room service. Overall good stay. Many good Indian food outlets nearby.
Very nicely setup room. My room had no natural light but helped with blue led lighting. Step out the door straight into the busy beach road shops and restaurants. Extremely good value for the money I paid. Would stay there again without thinking twice.
Tips for Visiting Temples & Culture
Dress Modestly
Cover shoulders and knees at all temples. Carry a light scarf or sarong — some temples lend wraps, but not all. Shoes come off before entering any building with a Buddha image.
Mind Your Feet
Never point your feet at a Buddha image or a monk — it's considered deeply disrespectful. When sitting inside a temple, tuck your feet behind you or to the side.
Ask Before Photographing
Exterior photos are almost always fine, but some interior halls prohibit photography. Look for signs, and never pose irreverently with Buddha images — it's a legal offense in Thailand.
