Absolute Bangla Suites welcomes new neighbour, The Central Patong Shopping Mall
Besides being in the heart of phuket’s most vibrant area, and already within such close proximity to Jungceylon shopping centre and Patong’s nightlife zone, Absolute Bangla Suites has a new asset and is now the closest hotel to the brand new central Patong shopping mall, an exciting new shopping destination in the Patong beach neighbourhood, dedicated to local and international visitors.
The latest mall to enter the already fierce Phuket shopping competition, and open for just over a month, the Patong-based shopping mall is the latest addition to the Central brand in Phuket.
Modern and brightly lit, Central Patong is located across the street from the already popular entertainment, eating and shopping destination of Jungceylon. However, Central Patong is catering to an even more stylish market. So, if you are looking to shop until you drop and eat all goodies you can, then you will definitely want to check out Central Patong while staying at any of our Phuket resorts.
Brands are spread across three floors: ground floor, home to upmarket brands in the Beauty Galerie and Luxe Galeries, with a large variety of cosmetics, sunglasses and accessories, not to mention a few famous Thai cafes and restaurants to dine at on this level as well, including the popular ‘After You’ dessert cafe, ‘Pancake Corner’ and ‘Mozza Pizza’.
On the second floor you will find Women’s Fashion & Accessories, Lingerie, Children’s Wear, the trendy ‘Mini Mono’ shop and a variety of Spa Services. ‘The Coffee Club’ and ‘The Pint Factory’, both popular Phuket cafes have branches on this floor making it a great pit-stop point for a coffee or beer.
The third floor is where to go to shop for Active Wear, Sports Fashion, Lifestyle, Jeans, Luggage and Men’s Fashion. This level is referred to as the Active Zone, and offers up plenty of shopping opportunities to suit active lifestyles with a variety of tastes.
The hustle and bustle of the underground floor is dedicated to Food and Gifts and home to an excellent supermarket selling high-end and fresh products, making it a great find for supplies for your own in-suite culinary adventure when staying at any of our resorts. If you are venturing outside of your resort for an alternative to our own Climax, The Kitchen Table or Blue Mango restaurants, then you will find a wide variety of independent restaurants on this floor to choose from, including Phuket’s popular ‘Rush Coffee’, ‘MK Restaurant’ and ‘Prime Burger’. If you are looking to buy souvenirs or Thai snacks, this floor is a great place to shop. Prices here for the latter are reasonable, and make great gifts for friends and family back home.
A complete range of high end services are available at the shopping mall including VAT refunds for tourists, luggage delivery and storage by ‘Airportels’, home and hotel delivery, 2-hours free Wi-Fi, Service Ambassadors and Interpreters speaking English, Mandarin and Russian.
Central Patong is open daily from 10:30am until 10:30pm and is located on Soi Rat U-Thit Road directly across from the Jungceylon shopping mall as well as the bustling Bangla Road. It is well worth exploring when you are staying at any of our resorts in Phuket.
