Phuket Looks Set For a Full House at Chinese New Year

By on Feb 11, 2010 in Hotel-Tourism

Khun Bang-Orn Chinaprayoo the tourism authority director in Phuket announced on Wednesday February 10 that all hotel rooms in Phuket were fully booked for the Chinese New Year Weekend and that the average occupancy rate was 90%.

A quick check on Booking.com seems to confirm the story with many hotels saying they have few available rooms for the February 13-14th weekend.

The Hilton Arcadia and Millennium Patong had five rooms left and the Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort had no rooms left.

This is obviously good news for the Phuket hotel market.
