Phuket Backpacker Thailand : Ranong Road

     Just opened : Contemporary Thai / Chinese fusion boutique hostel, conveniently located in the centre of Phuket town.. Great value with sophistication !

     Sawas-Dee ( welcome ) to Phuket Backpacker. We are centrally located in the bustling heart of Phuket Town. A town rich with Thai culture & history.

     We offer a home away from home. With our newly renovated property we offer our guests clean & comfortable accommodation set in a contemporary boutique Chinese Asian fusion style.

     Phuket is more than just beaches - of which we have plenty ! Phuket town is rich with architectural gems from Classic Chino-Portuguese homes, Wat's ( Thai temples ) & Chinese shrines etc..

     As a predominantly Buddhist culture you will find Buddhism cymbals in most every day lives. Every Buddhist home will have not only a small alter at which to pray, but a Spirit House which protects the home from evil sprits. One of the most charming sights for a Farang (foreigner ) is to wake early morning & watch the Monks clad in saffron colour robes walk the streets bare foot looking for donations of breakfast.

     On top of the architecture & Religious aspects of Phuket town you can get a real taste of Thai local life - take a slow walk around the central market & watch the world go by from many of the roadside coffee shops.

     Then we have our beautiful beaches, amongst the best in the world -reach. From the tourist hot spot of Patong beach to the more remote & less trodden beaches of Cape Panwa - All within easy reach as the central bus terminal is only 2 mins walk from our property - fares start from only Bht 20.

     After a busy day sight seeing kick back & relax, make yourself comfortable in our comfortable lounge, discuss your days adventures & exchange life stories with fellow backpackers from around the globe.

     So if you are looking for a real slice of Thai life in a cost effective comfortable surrounding then look no further than Phuket Back Packers - it's our sincere pleasure to welcome you with Traditional Thai grace.

     Phuket Backpacker 2 has many room types. There are Standard Air-Condition, Standard Fan and Dorm Air room. And you can choose Mix Dorm (Male-Female) room and Female Dorm (Only Female) room. We always care with cleanliness that you can touch Backpacker style and keep on experience when you go back to your country.

     Phuket Backpacker 2 is the place of privacy sense and peaceful atmosphere with all these facilities you will need to do nothing but relax and feel like your home

From The Phuket International Airport.

Option # 1
The most cost effective way is to hope on the Airport bus. Please note that this bus departs from the DEPARTURE floor. The fare will be Bht 52.00. On arrival at the Phuket central bus terminal we are only 10 mins walk away or alternatively you could opt to jump on local bus # 1 ( green & yellow colour ) which will cost you Bht 10.00... Then simply alight at the Thai Airways central town office ( Tell the bus driver "KARN - BIN - THAI - NAI - TA - LARD -SOD" in Thai ) - we are directly opposite !

Option # 2
You could opt for a limousine transfer both shared and private - this is expensive and in our opinion not worth the price. Furthermore as the driver is on commission he will endeavor to sell you products and services on- route - so be prepared to be hassled !

From The Central Bus Terminal.
