The Aim Patong Hotel
One of Patong's best-value picks, The AIM punches well above its price point on location alone. Patong Beach is a five-minute walk away, a strong lineup of shops and restaurants is right on the doorstep, and the gay bar scene is within easy reach on foot.
Rooms are bright and modern, each with a balcony, flat-screen cable TV, fridge, safe, and free WiFi. The rooftop pool with sun loungers is the clear highlight, with views across Patong that more expensive hotels would be proud of.
A 24-hour reception, tour desk, laundry service, and shuttle round out a practical, well-run operation that's hard to fault at this price.
