A Lovely Stay and a Great Location

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 6 Nov 2019
We stayed as a couple in a Pool View Room at Kelly's Residency for a week in late October. The room was a good size and very clean with all the facilities we required and a very good shower. The location was perfect for us as it was a short 10 minute or so walk to the Banzaan Food Market, Jungceylon and Bangla Road and about 15 a 15 minute walk from Patong Beach. This meant that the hotel was quiet at night which was perfect for getting a good nights sleep. The staff were all very friendly and went out of their way to help (even posting our swimming costumes to our next accommodation in Chiang Mai when we inadvertently left them on the balcony area when checking out). We will certainly be returning when next in Phuket

Was nice having an aussie to help with places to go. Unfortunately there were problems with the water, but he was right on the ball and got things going asap. The rooms were wonderful. We had the penthouse ones. The little bar downstairs. Very friendly host and if it is your first time, he really makes it special for you. We were a party of 6. We travelled in October 2012.

Had a brilliant five days here. I would like to commend, Tarn, for her exceptional customer service. She's incredibly helpful, and goes above and beyond to cater to the guests of the hotel. Not forgetting the hospitable nature of the owner, who makes it a point to check in with guests from time to time. 

Location wise, it takes about 10 minutes to walk down to Banzaan Food Market/Jungceylon Mall/Bangla Road/Karon Beach. Along the way, there are many affordable shops and eateries, perfect for those who're looking to escape the crowd. A convenience store is also located less than a minute away from the hotel.

We were also served with a sumptuous breakfast daily. Room and toilet was cleaned daily. No issues with the TV and the abundance of available channels!!

Will definitely come back here if I'm ever in Phuket, again.

Summarize with one sentence:felt like home! It was totally an home away from home us. They have amazing staff super friendly, everyone was perfect but Raida was our rock star! We would like to thank from here also. They meet us everytime with their sincere smiley faces and were there whenever we wanted.They served delicious fresh breakfast every monrning. We stayed at the poolside room, it has its privacy and felt like our own pool just open the door and jump in it. The room was super clean and cleaned everyday. The locations was not far away Patong Beach just 10 min walk. And Raj l, the owner of the hotel, he could not be more interested in every detail, every guest. We enjoyed evening talks with you soo much! It was our 6th hotel in Thailand and definitely is the best so far. It was like a boutique 5 star hotel. Don't look for any other just pick Kelly's Residence! Thank you guys it was a pleasure to stay at your hotel and great to know you, see you next time!;)

The staff were very friendly and helpful from check in to check out. The nice lady was very accommodating our request to stay an extra 2 days in the same room. The pool was a savior for the summer heat and which was well maintained on a regular basis. The A/C worked like a charm, shower has good pressure, complimentary bottled of water each day, room spacious and nice with safety box and nice balcony view of the city and ocean above Patong Beach. Hotel seconds away from restaurants with minutes away from market food, market shopping, shopping mall (tourist trap no locals shop there too expensive) and 10 minute walk to beach. Bike rentals across the street just tell them where your staying for a deal.

From check in to check out nothing was too much for the Kelly staff, always helpful and nothing is too much for them - arrive early and room was not ready but was given a room to relax/freshen up after a long flight - until my room was ready. Raj the manager has wide knowledge that he is always will to share about which places to visit/buy from etc.

Room tip: I prefer a swimming pool room - direct access from room to pool
