Don't believe website and brochure - no restaurant(except for breakfast for additional fee), no room service, no working bar, no shuttle to Patong Beach, no welcome drink. Front desk is often vacant for problems or requests. My girlfriend and I were given a room with no working A/C and only after my second request and baking in a sauna for 3-4 hours were we finally moved to a room with working air. Room had a serious ant problem. In room internet access is weak. Having to go online in the lobby area we were confronted like common crooks by the office manager and housekeeper. We were shown a stained facial towel and shower curtain. I was obviously embarrassed and immediately apoligized - offering to reimburse. At checkout we were asked to pay 1000 Baht(around $30.00 US) for these cheap, old items. I was given no receipt!

At Jiraporn guest are seen as an inconvenience. My seven-year old said it was the most unfriendly place in Thailand. This wasnt an exaggeration at all. Other than the phoney smile from the hotels female manager we rarely seen any joy from the hotel staff. One night the lamp burned out so I went down and asked for a new bulb - the male attendant huffed and puffed on his way to the office door and without any sort of friendliness at all - shook his head and said no - Needless to say we wont be returning and do not recommend this place. Find a hotel that has happy staff. The people in Thailand are some of the happiest Ive met - perhaps because all of the miserable ones are at Jiraporn.

The front desk staff were very nice, the pool is quite nice, a little small but a good view of Phuket. I would recommend this hotel even though it is out of the way from the beach as it is quiet at night. The hill can be quite a climb so not recommended if you have a physical disability.

You can say hostel but not a hotel . because there is no full time kitchen, waiter and worst thing no taxi or tuk tuk wants to go there because it is very off the route

Nice pool, air con, huge rooms with balcony and very friendly tour guide who was very helpful. Location was near great food. Too far to walk to beach but that was expected, they offered free rides 5x/day. This was a great hotel to start of my Thai holiday.

very rundown, no tea or coffee in room, aircon, broken, paid for 8 nights, stayed for one, our loss, but found another hotel right on the beach front at a cheaper price. The Jiraporn was at the top of a very steep hill, you had to be a mountain goat, also it is situated in a very run down area, dirty and very smelly

the reception is very good. the facilities provided are wonderful. they provide all the facilities they claim (even we got a welcome drink as mentioned). the travel agent facility they provide is very good. you don't need to move from your room to book tickets for tours etc. No language problem.nearer to all the needy shops/restaurants.

Nice atmosphere and staff having hospitality mind even if I arrived late taxi pick me up to the airport.(charged 700 TBH) when I left and behind the item, hotel sfaff mailed me to the next accommodation with free. the location is not so much convenient but environment and hotel room is big so I got scored 7 and worth for staying from total points of my view.
