Hotels near Banyan Tree Gallery Phuket, Phuket

The best hotel we have ever been. The services are incredible, from every part. You can’t any default from their quality. Never experience that before. Want to return back very soon. This is the best of the best.

Hotel nice and clean. Full equipped in the spacious room. There are swimming pool, shuttle boat, play room for kid and relaxing places. Shuttle boat can access to the beach.

The hotel is situated right next to the beach, so we got to wake up to the sound of the waves every morning. However, that also means the hotel is located quite far away from the entrance of the laguna resort area, so it is not very convenient to access local shops/ street food stalls outside of the resort area on foot. Shuttle buses are available but limited. Fortunately some of the massage shops nearby provide free shuttle service back to the hotel so it made up for it. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast options are limited, but the food changes everyday and were fairly good. The pools are not very big, but it was not too crowded and has a slide which was fun for kids and adults alike. Sunset view was magnificent. Overall, a very nice stay.

Nice hotel tucked away from busy bustling part of Phuket. Shuttle service is provided to bring guests out to beach or boat avenue. There's a few nice cafes and restaurant around boat avenue areas. Staff are attentive and always helpful to provide guidance on where to go, what to do. Definitely worth coming back for another stay :) Special call-out to some of the hotel staff - Kig on her friendliness, Cee for his great recommendation for local cuisine and Tangkwa, Big, Num, Baitoey for showing great hospitality. They simply and always put customers in their thoughts and ensured we have a great stay! Thanks for making this a memorable trip for me.

it was one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. This hotel was only four months old when I was standing there in February 2024. Everything is new and clean. The staff was friendly. my favorite part of the day was breakfast because the food was good and it was nice seeing a Russian chef wishing me a good morning. Pretty big gym, saunas. And a beautiful pool. The best area where you can stay in Phuket. You can go to Maya Beach, the Catch beach club, Cafe Del Mar and a fancy restaurant Carpe Diam beach club. No kids in the hotel 😍 best for couples!

Stayed for 8 nights in this hotel with my wife. Excellent hotel overall. Very clean indeed, staff very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. They open doors for you as you enter reception, take you bags to your room, help sort car / moped hire etc, The room was very clean and well appointed. Bath and beach towels are provided and they change these as frequently a you need. They also provide all the usual essentials including shower gel, shampoo, toilet paper, bottled water every day. Kettle, hob, large sink and basic utensils, glasses, cups etc were all provided. Also an iron and ironing board as well as a clothes drying stand. The big kitchen sink is easily bug enough to do clothes washing in. Room service was excellent each day. Balcony size on normal rooms was slightly small, especially as was shared with two large air conditioning units (all balconies appear the same) so this made the balcony cramped, noisy and hot when air conditioning was on. Breakfast was provided in the adjoining restaurant. This was excellent offering fresh hot and cold food, eggs made to your liking (fried, scrambled, omelettes, etc), bacon, sausages, fruit, bread, croissants, etc etc. Seemed to have everything included plentiful supply of juices, coffee, tea, etc. Most things self-service but the staff were on hand to help and to clear used dished. The location of the hotel means it is a 15 minute to the beach and 15 minutes to the main restaurant area known as Boat Avenue. Fortunately the hotel runs a shuttle bus service twice an hour to both locations and back until 9.10pm. Would be nice if slightly later coming back from Boat Avenue, but taxis and tuk-tuks were on hand although these aren't the cheapest. The main local beach is Bang Tao beach. This is lovely. Very clean (as everywhere seems to be here), soft white sand, gentle shelving into the water with no stones or rocks. Shame about sea lice the bite / sting in the water but they are everywhere in this part of the world depending on time of year and they are a very minor irritation. Also good availability of sun-beds as well as beverages from the beach shacks. Lots of fresh water showers and there is parking next to the beach as well as toilets. Boat Avenue has plenty of nice restaurants - see my other reviews if you want to see where we went and what we thoughts. Lots to choose from. Most restaurants seem to slow down food service after 9.30pm and this is not a clubby resort. Was just right for us though as there were plenty of bars and some with live music (check out The Mexican bar and restaurant). Wine is not cheap here and starts around £30 a bottle - although some could be found around £25. We stuck to beer with dinner. There is also a handy large supermarket selling everything you could need and is right by taxi station and open until 10pm. Final top tip about this area is to visit on a Friday night if you can as the street market is great with street food and live music. Easy to hire cars and

The hotel room is spacious - superior garden view got 2 queensize bed per room. Not very fancy as it was upgraded from old design, but comfortable stay. Laundry drying rack is also handy, our wet clothes dries quickly with the rack under the sun. Kids club, kids pool are quite nice. Food at Isla restaurant is very tasty, though need to wait quite a bit. Here comes the downside- bought the All-inclusive package, but was informed part of the days are not covered, had to call trip.com to coordinate and clarify. In subsequent days, we were asked several times to make payment for our meals, and were given different menus to order. Looks like the hotel is not very mature in providing all-inclusive services as compared to other operators, the communications among staff kinda screwed up… i had to keep showing purchase voucher to explain to different staff. Overall, it was a great stay, my family enjoyed very much.

We had an incredible stay at Amanpuri. We made sure to stay at the end of the season before the annual closure of the hotel. Communication pre and during our stay was flawless and the staff really made sure everything was prepared for our arrival. We had a beautiful Partial Sea View Pavilion which was in reality fully facing the sea and beautifully appointed. The Pavilions are in perfect condition and feel simple but luxurious just as you are expecting from an Aman hotel. People that find the rooms outdated and simple, clearly do not understand why one stays at Amanpuri. The room offers all modern amenities should you need them, but I honestly cannot remember when I last turned on the TV on a holiday stay. The entire property constantly kept in perfect condition. You mostly have the beach or pool or gym to yourself. The only time you really see all other guests is during meal times. All food and drinks was excellent, housekeeping was excellent, beach service was mostly perfect. We had one day where the service at the beach felt a bit lacklustre but it is forgivable. Every moment you spend at Amanpuri you have to remind yourself that this place really exists and you are really there. It is that beautiful. If there wouldn’t be that many Aman hotels to explore we would come back again and again and again.

We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel recently. Booked 2 Grand Surin Suite for our family which is very tastefully furnished and decorated. But the real gem of this lovely resort is the staff. All the staff that we met were really friendly, always smiling and helpful. Special mention to Ms Apple and Ms Gai at the restaurant, thank you very much. The location is in a very quiet area which we prefer to be rather than the loud and busy Patong. All in all, we would definitely choose this hotel again when we are back in Phuket.

We stayed at 1BDR pool villa, and happy to have Gam as our butler. She is sweet and taking great care to us like friend. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast everyday, we love the variety and taste of food, especially the thai soup noddles! We had Tea and Happy Hour in The Club. We loved the snacks and drink in HH more(maybe we are not sweet favour), choice of snacks is not as much as other IC, but are signature. Choice of drinks served alcohol lover~ Staff are cheerful, no matter who you met in the resort. Buildings are beautiful and remarkable! We slept very good for 3 nights with cosy beds and good room temperature, almost no mosquitoes disturbed . only minor cons to remarks: 1. floor in bathroom area is slippery even it is dry, a bit dangerous. 2. temperature of fridge is too high, drink is not cold enough. To conclude, I will certainly back to IC if I revisit Phuket :)
