Alleyhill — Hotel in Talat Nuea

Nice place to stay for a few days in Phuket center. Very close to old town in a nice alleyway. To be fair I have to give this place 4/5 stars just because there were several things in the room that just made things not too convenient and compare to other similar style places we stayed earlier it would not be fair to give max stars.

1. I absolutely hate white light. As one other review suggested yellow more warm light gives a much nicer and cozier feel. Afterall this is not a hospital or supermarket but a hotel. Even the small bedside light had white bulb which was extremely annoying.

2. Although there were 2 power outlets on both sides of the bed only one nightstand, one person had to keep their devices on the floor :(

3. No hot water kettle in the room, I understand if it was a hostel, but at this price point, I should not be going downstairs, wait for water to boil to make myself a coffee or tee.

There was other small bits and pieces that made no sense but these three I would say was very inconvenient. Overall the whole room just felt like an afterthought and was just lacking any personality and real life practicality. Everything was very clean tough, have to give them that.

The owner seemed like a nice guy and hope he can improve experience for other guests...

The entire hotel is beautifully bright and flooded with natural light. In terms of cleanliness, everything was truly impeccable; the rooms' minimalist design was particularly appealing and accentuated the overall cleanliness. The owners are warm and welcoming, and they take the time to offer tips and advice.

All services were offered to us. We could have our laundry done (200 THB for a wash with drying) and rent a scooter for 350 THB per day. Taxi service is also available, ensuring cleanliness and safety. We highly recommend it. The location is decent, with a 15-20 minute walk to the central Old Town.

Minor suggestions for improvement, which do not affect the overall rating: Adjust the lighting in the rooms; currently, it's cold white and feels unwelcoming; perhaps warmer tones would enhance coziness. Additionally, there was only shampoo and shower gel provided; perhaps adding soap at the basin would be beneficial.

Conclusion: For the price, all expectations were more than met! The cleanliness, in particular,...

What a lovely stay!

This was our first stop in Thailand and we were welcomed by such lovely hosts! As soon as we entered we were given drinks & smiles. We arrived early in the morning from the flight and they were happy for us to leave luggage there until our later check-in time.

You have the basics provided (towels, bathroom minis, water bottles etc.) and a fridge in the room. The hotel itself is modern, calm, and very clean. Breakfast isn’t available at the hotel, however you can have as many hot drinks in the lobby as you’d like, there’s plenty of places around to explore to get food.

The hosts were so keen to help/advise on things to do, book taxis, make sure you explored the area (the little hand drawn map is so sweet!) You're in walking distance to the old town & markets, and taxis are super cheap to wherever you want to go.

We’d definitely stay here again if we were to visit just on the hospitality alone. The host was so helpful for anything you may need and...
