Decent Family And Kids Friendly Hotel In Phuket ?
Hi .
I am looking for a decent family and kids friendly hotel in Phuket for my visit in July.
I am looking for following features in the hotel:
a. Daily room rent for a twin beds room arround USD 50/=.
b. Hotel to be near shopping & eating areas, and also near to beach.
c. I would like internet ( preferably wireless ) to be available in rooms.
d. As there will be 11 yrs and 6 yrs old kids along, so I am looking for such a place which have some entertainment for kids as well.
Anyone have any recommendations? Your help is much appreciated. As I have heard that hotels in Patong ,situated on the road next to beach are much lower in price and just 5 mins walk to beach. Please comment.
Further, how much does usually a taxi cost from Phuket Airport to a hotel in Patong area?
Thanks
Andrep

According to a local newspaper, Phuket post (25 August – 7 September 2007), has increased the amount of Australia in Phuket by 53 % and the number of Bretons, 44 per cent. These increases are primarily due to Phuket, carriers such as the Australian airline Jetstar Asia budget priced under – increase and regional airlines One To Go, in Asia air and air NOK.
Recent years season led to criticism by Phuket airport passenger immigration long queues queue and transport issues. Allegations of bad service in relation to the limousine service contract only airport, invited Khun Pornchai EURA – aree, Director-General of the airport, to give passengers more options.
Transport in Phuket emits a Phukets some gaps is the lack of an island – wide transport network. Tourists to Thailand often complain of transport signup and limited choice. This has largely involved with what light resident local mafia; called the taxi drivers who are very protectors of your domain and that do not allow any competition.
Exist in the island’s unwritten rules in local tuk – tuks and taxis. In theory, you can not, make arrangements to use the same driver to and from the airport as juristiction does not collect you in the airport area.
