Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa 5* Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa 5*

Rested at the Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa. Initially I was going to Koh Samui, but 3 months before the trip there were no places in the chosen hotel, I spat and booked Thavorn Palm Beach Resort. Yes, yes, I was going to go there, last year we visited it with friends. The flight to Phuket took place on a Boeing 747-200 (with monitors in the seats), back on a Boeing 747-300 (without monitors, but good distances between the seats, this is more of a plus than monitors). Upon arrival in Thavorn, the hotel manager Anna pleased with overbooking at the Hilton, not a fool - she agreed + they had 3 trips to Thavorn restaurants for such serious stress: Old Siam, Italian and Thai. I won’t retell for a long time, at the Hilton we got a deluxe room 5106 in the Saitong building. In general, the hotel consists of three buildings of different heights - Andaman Wing, Lotus Wing, Saithong Wing. A combination of European and Thai traditions in architecture, but in principle a box-box, albeit a pretty one.
The room pleased with the presence of a bath and shower, convenient touch control of the power supply, and most importantly, a gorgeous view of the park, lagoon and mountains: http://photofile. ru/users/kran19/video/v3454701993/view/
The room has everything you need for a hard life on vacation: a kettle with accessories, a mini-bar with 2 bottles of freshly replenished drinking water, and, of course, slippers and a bathrobe. Safe, umbrella, iron, ironing board. There is an electronic clock on the bedside table. The radio didn't work. TV exclusively with foreign programs, the choice of channels is quite small, there are no Russian channels. One of the channels gives information about the hotel. There is a TV program next to the TV. There is wired Internet (24 hours/day - 650 baht, 1 week - 3500 baht). I managed with my PDA with a 1-2-call SIM card with Beeline GPRS settings, the cost is cheap. Upon check-in, they give a booklet with all the comprehensive information, a manager (Russian Guest Relation Officer) Larisa works at the reception.

Every evening they bring a sheet with a weather forecast for the next day, a couple of small chocolates. Room cleaning 2 times a day, no complaints, change of linen every other day, every day they made swans out of towels, a pleasant trifle. http://photofile. en/users/kran19/3514333/

The territory of the hotel is huge and very picturesque. Landscaping is just 5 plus. Sea of ​ ​ flowers. Three large beautiful pools, two cascading with waterfalls, there are 2 water slides for children, on the territory of 3 large lagoons. Something like our tram runs around the territory. In short, it's easier to look at the pictures than to retell it all: http://photofile. en/users/kran19/3514351/

We usually had breakfast at the Neptune restaurant (it is also a fish restaurant in the evening), the choice of food is quite standard, but large, there are also rolls, a good selection of fruits, of your choice, the chef will squeeze juice out of them. Coffee is brewed, the taste is for everyone.
Closest to the sea is the Andaman Wing hull.
We were located near its pool, in order to get to the sea, we had to cross a fairly busy two-lane road.

I liked Karon Beach last year, but I like Kata Noi more, although the sand does not crunch there.
If necessary, shops are located opposite the Welcome Lobby (the place where tourists are brought from the airport).
On excursions we went on a canoe tour (James Bond Islands) and to the zoo. In general, the hotel can be safely advised, one of the best in Phuket.
