What guests keep writing about

People who look after you

You arrive tired, and there is a jar of iced lemon water waiting at the desk. Lily, the manager, speaks Thai, English, and Chinese. Ask her where to eat and you get a real answer. Three in four reviews mention the team.

A bed you will miss

The owner's son picked the mattresses himself. They are pocket spring, so if one of you gets up at 3 AM, the other one keeps sleeping. Guests write about the soft pillows without being asked.

New, and spotless

Everything was renovated this year and opened in August 2026. Six in ten reviews say clean. One guest from South Korea ranked it above Phuket's five-star hotels.

Your cozy stay begins here

Built by a father, for his family

Chochana is named after the owner's son and daughter. Their father turned an older building in Phuket Old Town into this hotel so the family would have something to run together. The two children on the sign are them.

So when you stay here, you are staying with a family, and they treat the place like their name is on it. Because it is.

The white lilies at the door have a reason too. In another language, Chochana means lily.

Pick how you like to wake up

Some rooms stay dark so you can sleep late. Some fill with daylight. Every room has the same pocket spring bed, a fridge, a kettle, and a shower room with bidet and hairdryer.

For sleeping in

Inside-facing window. Dark and calm, whatever the hour.

Superior Queen

Sleep deep and wake up when you want. A soft queen bed, air conditioning that gets properly cold, and a room that stays dark till you open the door. There is a marble-top desk for your laptop and a brass lamp one guest called cute. The room most guests book.

For waking up slowly

Outside window. Real daylight and more room to spread out.

  • Air conditioning
  • 2 adults, or 1 adult + 1 child

  • 30 m²
  • Double bed + 2 bunks
  • Air conditioning

King Suite

The most space in the building. A king bed, a place to sit that is not the bed, and daylight all morning. Pick it for a longer stay or an anniversary. It is still a hometel price.

Photos coming soon. Message us and we will send one.

  • 32 m²
  • King bed
  • Air conditioning
  • 2 guests

In every room: bottled water, tea and coffee, kettle, fridge, flat-screen TV, hairdryer, bidet, toiletries, slippers, key card door, and daily housekeeping.

Drive in. Park free. In Old Town.

Almost nothing in Phuket Old Town comes with parking. We have four to eight spaces of our own behind the building, so you can stop circling and start your trip. Driving something big? Tell us the day before and we will keep a space clear.

  1. Turn into Phang Nga Soi 2.
  2. Park behind the hotel. First come, first parked.
  3. Walk in through the back door. The desk is right there.

Phuket Old Town, all on foot

First guests, first impressions

4.9 out of 5 across every review since we opened

"They went above and beyond."
Shourya, India
Cleanliness and water quality "above Phuket 5-star hotels."
Soojeong, South Korea
The iced lemon water at check-in "took the tiredness of the journey away."
Hui, China (translated)
"เตียงนอนนุ่มหลับสบายสุดๆ"
Supattra, Thailand

One more, because it says it best. When a guest's bracelet broke in the car park, the whole team went outside to look for the beads.

Good to know before you book

Do the rooms have windows?

Yes, every room has one. In the Standard and Superior rooms the window faces inside the building, so the room stays dark and you sleep late. The Deluxe, Family Room and King Suite have outside windows with real daylight.

Is there a lift?

No. The hotel has two floors and one flight of stairs. If stairs are hard, or you have heavy bags or small kids, tell us when you book and we will do our best to put you downstairs.

Do you serve breakfast?

No. Good coffee is two minutes away on foot and 7-Eleven is fifty metres from the door. Ask at the desk and we will point you to where we eat.

Does every room have air conditioning?

All except the Standard Double with Fan. That room has a wall fan only, and it is priced for it. In hot season, take a Superior.

Is parking really free?

Yes. There are four to eight spaces behind the building, through Phang Nga Soi 2. First come, first parked. Driving something big? Message us the day before and we will keep a space clear.

Can I check in late at night?

Yes. The front desk is open 24 hours, so a 2 AM arrival is fine. Check-in is from 2 PM and check-out is by 12 noon.

What does Chochana mean?

It is a name the owner made from the names of his son and daughter. The family later found that in another language the word means lily, which is why you will see white lilies at the door.
