Description

The Malika Hotel is a 4-star hotel in Phuket Town, with an outdoor swimming pool overlooking the grounds. Set on Takua Thung Road, it is 1.1 km from the town centre, close to the historic streets and everyday shops of the old town. A garden, sun terrace, balconies and patios add open-air spaces, while the pool offers a place to relax between outings.

Accommodation ranges from 32–35 m² double and twin rooms to a 75 m² villa. Rooms have air conditioning, balconies, private bathrooms and minibars, with garden, city or pool views depending on the category. The villa has a private entrance, separate bedroom and living room, private pool and hot tub; twin rooms have two single beds, while the double rooms have a king-size bed.

Free bicycles and a tour desk support outings around Phuket Town. The hotel also has a 24-hour front desk, daily housekeeping, a coffee house and snack bar. Free private parking and WiFi are available, but breakfast is not served. The mix of city access and pool facilities suits travellers who want time in town as well as space to relax at the hotel.

Rooms

The accommodation range comprises five double or twin room categories and a larger villa. The five rooms are 32 or 35 m², with air conditioning, a balcony, minibar, flat-screen TV and private bathroom with shower. The garden-view double adds a terrace and garden outlook, while the city-view double and twin room look towards the city and inner courtyard; both city-view options are reached by stairs. The pool-facing double rooms have balconies overlooking the water, along with a seating area and tea and coffee maker.

At 75 m², the villa is substantially larger than the other options and has a separate bedroom and living room, a private entrance, terrace and private pool, along with a hot tub. Its layout includes a king-size bed and sofa bed, in contrast to the single-bed arrangement of the twin room and king-size beds in the double rooms.
