Fresh off a 2017 revamp, the upper-middle-range Lantern Resorts Patong sits in a central location near the beach and backing right up against the heart of Patong's nightlife. Its 105 rooms range from straightforward Studios to massive Quads that can sleep four, and all offer plush bathrobes, electric kettles, and gigantic flat-screen TVs. Some have balconies, alas without beach views. On-site features are rather extensive, starting with three pools, including a rooftop and kiddy pool with poolside bars. A lively restaurant serving all meals and a massage center round out the offerings. Despite all these facilities, some guests do express some disappointment that The Lantern is closer to a mid-range hotel than its advertised four-star status, and the rare maintenance issues spotted don't help. For another hotel in the area with flashy design, travelers could consider The Crib Patong.

The 20-room Palmview
Resort is more of small and friendly budget hotel than a resort, set
away from Patong's beach and town center. The location on a busy street over a
mile from the beach is not ideal, but rooms are spacious and clean, with
good amenities for longer-stay guests. Cheap rates reflect the setting and
general caliber of hotel, though you might get slighter better value for your
money at the nearby Valero Guest House.
