Mercure Patong Beach, Phuket, Thailand

Modern comfort in the tropical Phuket

The choices are all attractive. Deluxe suites with a private balcony that looks down to the hotel swimming pool from a high floor. Superior rooms that capture imagination with a half-height glass-paneled bathroom wall. Or family rooms designed to enhance quality time and strengthen the family bond.

Mercure Patong Phuket's well-appointed rooms and suites feature spacious interiors decked out in contemporary Asian style, with modern furniture, built-in LCD TV and bathroom with separate shower and bathtub.

Inspired by the colours and flavours of the world, this all-day dining venue fuses modern international cuisines with classic Western dishes. Enhancing basic ingredients with ultra creativity, World Cafe serves savoury concoctions like shrimp salad with mango and avocado, pork & pear saute with lemon vodka sauce, linguine with clam sauce and raspberry cream cheese brownie.

Opening hours: 6 a.m. - 11 p.m.

A dedicated corner within World Cafe, Baan Napa celebrates the texture of regional Thai cuisines through its distinctively Thai dishes - and the interior that epitomizes traditional Thai houses. Using the finest ingredients, chefs at Baan Napa present an extensive a la carte menu as well as set-menu courses that encapsulate the essence of Thai flavours and spices.

Opening hours: 11a.m. - 2:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. - 11 p.m.

The "celestial home" to the planets and stars, O2 Lounge brings a refreshing boost to the hotel's guests with its stylish concentric design and innovative cocktail list like Jupiter Punch, Mars Discover, Mercury Delight, Moon Tango and Neptune Coco Blue. The open bar stocks premium spirits and champagnes, and features live on-stage performances.

Opening hours: 10 a.m. - midnight.

At Sun Bar, luxury is in the choice - quick bites or big bites, cocktails or mocktails, by the pool or in the pool. Or, even if the choice is to lie down on a sun lounger and do absolutely nothing. Set in the vicinity of the main pool, and essentially in the middle of everything that goes on at the hotel, Sun Bar serves drinks and snacks with an international origin.

Opening hours: 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.

At Moon Bar, the setting is everything. On the hotel's roof terrace, looking out to Patong Bay and accompanied by a rooftop plunge pool, the mood at Moon Bar evolves as the day progresses. Catering to suntan lovers by day, the bar welcomes couples and friends to catch a glimpse of the sunset or, later, gaze at the stars - and explore the wonders of the universe - through its high-powered telescope.

Once a small fishing village, Patong blossomed into one of Phuket's most visited destinations with bustling scenes of souvenir stalls, street bazaars, food hawkers, stylish cafes and restaurants. A long stretch of white sand and turquoise sea, Patong Beach is peppered with tropical palm trees and beach chairs, all of which lend Patong its charm.

After sunset, the shops and bazaars beckon travellers with a parade of local crafts and grilled seafood. Cafes and open-air dining venues add colours to the scene as parties continue on into the night.

Thailand's largest island, Phuket is approximately 862 km south of Bangkok. The island is enriched with a mixture of forested hills, limestone cliffs, tropical vegetation, rubber, coconut and cashew plantations. Fifteen kilometers from Patong, Phuket town is home to the island's multi-cultural past, with remnants of Sino-Portuguese and Chinese buildings interspersed among local shop houses
