Greetings All,

I am counting down for my first trip to Phuket, just under a month to go. Thanks to the kind people here I have a good idea of what to expect. I will be staying in North Patong on Hat Patong Rd. I was wondering if anyone is familiar with the area. Are there any good restraunts, bars, etc. in the area or are things more located by Bangla Rd. ?

How long of a walk is it down to Bangla Rd. Jungceylon area? Is it better to wait for the baht bus on the beach road and take the slow ride down? Thanks for any tips comments or sugestions!

Hi there, we love the northern end of Patong and its only a 10-15 min walk to Bangla (from Gracelands area - if you dont stop at shops or bars along the way) No need for a bus etc, just walk!

What hotel are you staying at?

Nickys Handle bar is northern end on Rat-u-Thit road, fantastic place for a drink or meal, Theres No 9 restaurant, Patong food court, have a look at my eating out pages there are over 30 restaurants we have been to and many of them up the northern end.

It%26#39;s truly not far to Bangla road as you are closer than Gracelands if you are in Hat Patong rd. You will be walking, unless you are somehow incapable. 10 minutes tops. Restaurants are all around, walking lets you check them out. Nothing is that far, and tuk-tuk rides are cheap.
