    We wanted to stay for two nights and ended up staying for four. The hotel is in a convenient location in the centre of Phuket town. The owners are so nice and go out of their way to help you. The breakfast is amazing and has a huge variety of dishes. They cook something new every day! The rooms are big, clean and comfortable with a nice firm bed. Honestly, there is nothing to improve and we had a great time. We rented a scooter and drove around the island to various beaches and could come back to a town with lots of good food, bars and a comfortable bed at Shunli hostel. Thanks for everything!

    The host couple of this hotel are so kind and wonderful people. Great location in Phuket downtown. In addition, their home made style Thai breakfast was awesome enough to compared to any 5 star local restaurants. I stayed this hotel for just 1 night. But the morning of my check out day, there was a enormous vegetarian festival parade just in front of Shunli hotel. I was so nervous about returning a rent car and checking in Rassada pier because my boat was supposed to depart at 09:00. Anyone knows the meaning of "Shunli"? I know the meaning and it was a kinda our family motto. The meaning is to follow the destiny of life. All of a sudden, the host couple helped us to call to rental car company and return the car at their hotel parking place after parade. And the husband of host drive his own car to the Rassada pier on time. I am specially thankful for the host couple and hope to see you again.

    I stayed for 3 nights in April 2022 and I love everything there. The aunties are so lovely and warmly welcome. I feel like I'm am at home when I was there. The hostel cares about the hygine, you should take off your shoes and store them in the shoe rack. Also prepare the slippers for walking around. My room number is 204. It's the large room and have the corridor which I can open the door to get the morning air fresh (love this!). The house keeper came to clean up my room and give 2 bottles of water daily. Every morning I enjoyed to see what would be served for breakfast, the menu Keep checking every day and the breakfast that aunties prepare are local dishes ans super delicious and better than eating at some famous restaurant👍 and serving mango with sticky rice. Actually I didn't expect much about hotel breakfast but at this place is really attracts me to look forward to it 🥰. Thank you aunties for preparing good foods to start the day with happiness.🙏

    We can definitely recommend an overnight stay at this hotel. Both the hostess and the staff were extremely nice and accommodating. The hotel is very clean and the rooms are really lovely. The breakfast was also very tasty. There was nothing to complain about and we would choose this hotel again anytime.

    Right in Phuket town, it's a great location. I thought the value for money was incredible. The level of friendly service was of the highest standard. It isn't any old guesthouse. The quality of the rooms and decor is very high. It is very clean and well kept. Breakfast is served in a cute covered outdoor area, with bread and jam, fruit, a curry and rice/noodles, fried or scrambled eggs, mango sticky rice, and a selection of local desserts. I'd 100 percent recommended this guesthouse for those staying in the old Town.

    We spent 2 great nights at Shunli hostel and definitely would recommend to everyone who want to stay at Phuket Oldtown. Hotel located in heart of the old town, very convenient to move everywhere. Room is cleaned, and well organized (Aircon could be better and less noisy but ok). Breakfast was decent; with toast, Eggs coffee, tea, fruits. As well as Thai food (chicken, porridge, curry…). The manager/ owner is very nice, she keeps everything cleaned and tidy to every detail. She also very helpful in providing all the info you may need for your travel. Recommendation!

    Best accommodation you can imagine for a few days in old town. Very clean and good breakfast. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Stefan H. 1 year ago on Google
    ideal if you want to see Phuket Old Town. You are right in the middle. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We had rented a car and - despite the difficult parking situation - a space was always cleared when we came back from a tour. The excellent breakfast is also worth mentioning if you prefer Thai food. Continental had the usual, toast, sausage, eggs, jam etc. The rooms are large and very clean, like the whole hotel. Everything works perfectly, which is not always the case in Thailand (sanitary facilities).

    Stayed here 2 nights last minute (no reservation) although I would recommend reserving as this place is lovely. Very clean, all amenities, very calm and nice couple run hotel. The breakfast buffet is included and home cooked, good location.

  • 5/5 Maria C. 1 year ago on Google
    This was our favorite place that we stayed in all of Thailand. The owner is extremely kind, when we arrived in the beginning of the pandemic restrictions and had to stay in our room until late night waiting for the pcr results, she recommended us a superb restaurant, made the order for us and went to pick up our dinner so we wouldn't starve while waiting. Breakfast is a huge selection from fish, soup, dumplings, mango & rice and the more plain fruit, cereal & toast. Thank you Shunli Hotel for a great stay!

    Excellent hotel in a quite and convenient location in Phuket Old Town. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The lady prepared breakfast including different dishes, all of which were delicious. The room was neat and clean. The only recommendation would be to fix the water pipe of the shower, because it was leaking and the sound was annoying. Beyond that, we absolutely recommend!

  • 5/5 S Q. 4 months ago on Google
    If only I can rate the services 10 stars, the owner lady is super nice and helpful. She can speaks mandarin. Super cosy and clean place. Shoes is not allowed in the hotel. The Thai style breakfast (7am to 9am) are the best even though they said from 1st Nov onwards no more Thai style breakfast but they are so nice to serve us for free. They make sunny side up eggs for us every morning. Pros: they have laundry services and it is done within 2-3 hours. They provided 2 bottle mineral water per day in room. Located at the quiet street and I have the best sleep! Cons: traditional house therefore no lift is provided. But no problem to climb 3 floors.

    The cleanest hotel you will ever stay in. The owners are so kind and accommodating. They offered us tea/coffee upon arrival, helped us book a ferry to Railay beach, and cooked a lovely breakfast in the morning. Really hard working passionate people highly recommend staying here. Be aware that some rooms do not have outdoor access but the inside of the hotel is so open and lovely it doesn’t take away from the setting at all.

    The hotel does everything it wants to do to absolute perfection. Located directly in the heart of the Old Town you can experience the night-life and the different shops and food courts within a 5-minute walk. The hotel itself is as clean as can be, with comfortable beds, spacious rooms and cute balconies. Communication with the hotel staff was easy and they were very helpful and welcoming to every request or question. The breakfast is absolutely worth it, it changes daily and you can be sure that the food is going to blow you away. I couldn't think of a single thing I would criticise, so 5 Stars all the way

    The staff was so nice and sweet. We booked tickets to Koh Phi Phi through them and they gave us free transfer to the pier. The rooms were clean and the breakfast was amazing.

    Great stay. Location is great, place is nice, Thai breakfast is super. Above all, the management team is all so nice and courteous, and we were all well taken care of. Felt the genuine hospitality. Thanks to Khun Mon and family.

    If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Rooms are really clean and it is located at a really accessible location; in the middle of old Phuket town. In fact, it is along the same stretch as Sunday night market. Breakfast is amazing. The eggs are cooked to preference, you can choose either scrambled or fried egg and the done-ness you prefer. In addition, breakfast dishes are rotated. Everyday, there is a different main course. (Eg. squid, fried rice, Tom yum, slices fish). There is also a serving for mango sticky rice every morning! In fact, I’ll go to say the breakfast here is better than some of the hotel breakfast I’ve had at Patong. Owners are also very flexible in letting us store luggage after checking out. Really enjoyed my stay here and will definitely come back to this hotel if I’m back at Phuket. PSA - there are only 10 rooms in this hotel. Given the good price, location and great value, I’ll advice you to book early!

  • 5/5 James D. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing place to stay in the lovely Old Town. 100m from the walking street and Sunday market. The staff are so friendly and will go out of your way to help with anything. Breakfast has a really good variety and you can really fill up for the day. The rooms are super clean and spacious also!

    A beautiful little hotel located in the Old Phuket town precinct. The hotel is clean, and the staff are so helpful and friendly. The breakfast was also amazing.

  • 5/5 Jason S. 1 year ago on Google
    Stayed here for 3 nights with my friend. All I have to say is that the place is a 1000/10. The lady running the hotel is super nice! She helped us communicate with local tour groups to confirm our pick up timings and even ask us about our adventures and trips when we are back in the hotel. Although this is a hostel, I felt that the service beats all hotel I have stayed so far. There was a series of unfortunate events that happen and she went out of her way to help us. Felt like she’s my own mum during my stay there. Really recommend people to stay there, because I’ll most likely return there everytime I go Phuket. P.S. her food are awesome!!

    Such warm people running the hostel. They taught us thai words and prepared an amazing breakfast every morning. Beautiful space, clean and spacious rooms. Very central location. Thank you for such an amazing welcome to thailand!

  • 5/5 R. Y. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the best hostels I've ever stayed at. You have a lot of daylight even in the inside of the hostel, because of the intelligent and beautiful architecture. The family which runs the hotel are such nice, caring and mindful people - it feels like home. It's quiet peaceful and full of love. The breakfast buffet is homemade and varies every day - very delicious. The hostel is located central in the old town, you can reach a lot of sights within minutes. It was a wonderful stay 🙂

  • 5/5 Harleigh 2 years ago on Google
    The only place you should consider staying in Phuket. The friendliest staff, the most amazing breakfast and best location in Phuket Old Town. They go above and beyond to make your stay memorable (e.g. preparing decorations and cake for birthdays!) Thank you so much :)
