uli65 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 in October there is a good deal for this hotel in agoda. I am little bit concerned about the location. the hotel is near bangla road and the noisy Taipan disco. Is taipan open now?? any recommendation about the hotel, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not a good hotel, I doubt it if Taipan is open, and from what I have read and pictures seen and stories heard, Phuket is dead, apparently the Thai's have given it the thumbs down as they are still charging big prices for food. If you want a good clean hotel with a pool and balcony suggest iBis, about a 10 minute walk to Bangla Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a walkthrough video posted the other day and all the lights were off on Soi Croc. it does not look good for Phuket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soi Croc used to be the place for Katoyes, although last time I walked down Bangla I'm pretty sure Soi Croc was replaced with something else. Patong won't recover from this, Phuket will change forever the longer these lockdowns stay in place, as will other places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post toxictotoro Posted September 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2020 C&N hotel is very good value. Super clean and modern amenity furnished rooms (get the "studio" type. Decent balcony. Great staff. In-room massage if desired. A few minus points - no pool but you can use their pool at the C&N Resort on the south end of town. Breakfast buffet is ok and entirely edible but not super awesome. Taipan is closed and I believe was being cleared out the other day when I walked by, as is the e tire area so you will have zero noise problems. Bangla is deader than Ronald Reagan. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uli65 Posted September 25, 2020 Author Share Posted September 25, 2020 thanks, I think I will try it for a couple of days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFPhuket Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I drove by the hotel yesterday and it looks closed so I would contact them directly and make certain they are open before booking on a travel site. The massage area in the front is certainly closed. You will not be bothered by any noise since everything around it is closed and the lights are off.

Agusts Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Around the hotel nothing is open, so no noise problem. Bangla has a few bars and discos open, but of course very quiet, a bit better at the weekends though, this damn constant rain also doesn't help...

If it didn't rain, you'll be moaning about the lack of water in a couple of months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merijn Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 I believe that C&N hotel is still closed same as most other hotels. (C7N resort is definitely closed) Whole Patong is almost a ghost town. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFPhuket Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 C&N is clearly closed. I drove by a couple of nights ago and there were no lights on anywhere in the hotel or reception area. As I suggested earlier, if you see a hotel on a travel site, you should call the hotel directly to check that it's really open. If they answer, it never hurts to ask if they can beat the rate.
