Hi Gracep
We have been to Phuket 6 times and have always stayed at Patong Beach. We are not into nightlife (we are now in our 60's) at all but just enjoy being central to everything without the necessity to get transport everywhere. Last year we stayed at the Patong Merlin but have previously stayed at the Baan Thai and the Holiday Inn in Patong. We really loved the Holiday Inn and if your budget allows, then I'm sure you wouldn't be disappointed with this hotel. When we next go to Phuket we are going to try a hotel in either Karon or Kata Beach just for a change. Wherever you decide to stay, I'm sure you will enjoy your holiday there.
