Our stay was very enjoyable, we felt like part of the family. They made us feel very welcome and went above and beyond. I was looking for matches for my brother who collects them and couldn’t find them anywhere, I asked Paul where I could get them and he said he didn’t know but he could order them online for me and he did, 3 days later I had them. This was awesome service. We will definitely be back.
The property to located 1 block from the "fun" bars!! There was entertainment every night, beginning at 10:00. I will stay there again on my return to Phuket.
Friendly and helpful staff.
Apartment suite was comfortable and big. Bed mattress not the most comfortable, a bit too firm for me. Good breakfast although limited choice to either full American type breakfast or Thai. Both were great though. Housekeeping service was good, my room was clened daily, 2 bottles of water added daily.
Discreetness upon entry/exit into premises and also location of dining area/bar area not great as this is located righr within the paradise plaza so something to bear in mind if you want a bit of discretion.
Wifi not the best unfortunately, my signal kept dropping especially in the room despite having access to both 2.4 and 5g wifi.
Unfortunately stairs may be difficult to climb if unfit or have arthritis.
Sauna area may benefit from having some lights even if a bit dimm as i found it difficult to navigate whilst inside.
My taxis had difficulty in dropping or fetching me from the guesthouse as there is no direct drop off point at the guesthouse bevause of its location within the passage of the paradise plaza so as a result i often had to use the name of an adjacent hotel whose entrance was opposite the paradise plaza, in order to get to my transport vehicles for tours/transfers.
Date of stay 6 November till 9th November, had booked till 12th but checked out early due to changes in work schedule and change of flight bookings.
As a return visitor, I'm always satisfied with my stay over here. The room was immaculately clean, in fact the entire hotel is always very well maintained. Situated near all bars, clubs, restaurants, shops etc. ideal for enjoying the nightlife.
We wanted a centrally located hotel with character near all facilities. Our rooms were a good size with en suite shower room. Rooms were immaculately clean with daily cleaning done to perfection. Generous American breakfast, with refills. Hotel is within Paradise PLAZA. The bar is relaxing and friendly. The staff were consistently professional, attentive and helpful. Near all shops, restaurants and nightlife, with a 10 minute walk to the beach.

Average
Average hotel poor wifi in rooms, poor blackout curtains, no elevator, not wheelchair friendly! Good location! Clean rooms! Owner is rude and burst into my room while i was inside to try fix the wifi, as it was too slow!
There is no phone in the room! Super slow wifi in the room, very noisy at night! The owner is not friendly but the asian receptionist is very friendly! Good location! Poor black out curtains! Good breakfast! No elevator!
**PROS:**
Super kind and helpful staff and very nice owner. Everything was provided as advertized and promised. Relaxed, fun, easygoing vibes. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and as pictured. Free Water was always provided and room service was always ready. The noise from the parties and wild streets outside were surprisingly quite minimal and did not disturb us despite being so loud outside till late hours. Super convenient and fun location near all the gay life and shows. We did not eat the breakfast but felt that it was a bit on the expensive side. AC worked perfectly.
**OTHER:**
I would say the bathrooms need a facelift and it would be nice (because of the price that is charged) that they offered shampoo and conditioner. Bed was a little too hard for me, but i guess someone else might love that. Again: everything was clean.
I do recommend for a few nights and would return for a quick fun stop at Phuket. 9/10
great location , friendly staff and decent facilities

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I had some trepidation based on previews reviews. Although difficult to find once there the check in process was quick and friendly. The room was definitely small and outdated while clean and "just enough".
Can't say enough good about "Audi", check in and general helper, "Chart" cook and host. These two, for me, made whatever "bad" there was excellent. The housekeeper too was friendly and efficient.
the sauna etc. ok and I didn't get to check out the sundeck because the sun wasn't visiting Phuket that week.
The place could definitely use updating but it's clean, and extremely friendly staff. they need to figure out a way to be more easily found by taxis and airport transports.
The friendly staff greeting on arrival and quick check in and had a nice chat with owner Paul over a few beers. The room was nice and well-appointed and most important the shower had good hot water and pressure.
I am still saddened that this guest house is only a shadow of its pre-covid self but all of Thailand is suffering the same, many many small and large businesses have closed and no doubt never open again. Aquarius had a good restaurant with a wide variety of meals, I was saddened to have to walk to another motel to get breakfast but I am sure that Aquarius will get back to its old self.

The hospitality of the staff was amazing. The hotel is going through renovations, so not everything was available. The room was very nice.
