Soi Patong Resort is the link between the long-established Patong
Resort and the heart of Patong nightlife – Bangla Road. In Thailand,
satellite businesses are a kind of an institution: wherever you open a
hotel, even in the middle of nowhere, you can be sure that within six
months, a few restaurants, bars and shops will have opened in the
vicinity.
Soi Patong Resort is about 100 metres long and offers
the type of venues geared to tourists, as of July 2013 it counts: nine
restaurants, five bars, two massage parlours, six tailors, an internet
café, a drinks shop, a souvenir shop, and four shops with space for
rent.
‘International’ is the word which describes best the choices of
dining available along Soi Patong Resort: Thai, Italian, German, Indian,
British and Danish restaurants are all waiting for you here. Some of
them are long-established venue: Rundetårn Steak House, a Danish
restaurant, has been opened for almost 15 years; while The Islander
Restaurant has been serving British/Thai food since 1993 (note that
there is a similar The Islander restaurant in Koh Samui’s Chaweng
Beach). The other restaurants available in Soi Patong Resort are
Eurasian Restaurant, Sun Smile Steakhouse, Valerio e Luca Ristorante, Da
Mari Inn, Navrang Mahal, Midnight Sun Restaurant, and a small Thai
‘no-name’ eatery.
The four bars along the soi are slightly less
raucous than those found on Bangla Road, even though you could easily
find some company in them if you don’t want to drink alone: With names
like the Parrot bar, Pussycat Bar it isn’t hard to figure the score out,
you’ll also find the Boogaloo Bar, The Oasis Bar, and a ‘Pepe Lopez
Tequila Bar’ (no specific name figures on its front signboard). Apart
from feminine company, most of them also broadcast sport events on TV,
and offer happy hours (if you want to start early, 14:00-18:00 all beers
60 baht at The Oasis Bar).
