The Bar/Lounge at Holiday Inn Resort Phuket

"Also unique is the hotel's minibar scheme -- rooms have just a bare fridge, but guests can pick out supplies from a small convenience store in the lobby and have them delivered for not much more than standard minibar prices"

"There are four on-site restaurants and a bar, with Charm Thai Restaurant receiving stellar reviews"

"But keep in mind that while resorts located in and around Patong offer easy access to shopping malls such as Jung Ceylon, well-known chains such as McDonalds and Starbucks, and a plethora of bars and restaurants, those seeking more solitude should consider resorts such as Centara Villas on Karon Beach or even the Amari Coral Beach Resort at the southern end of the Patong strip"
