Patong holds more hotel rooms than any other part of the island, and the whole ladder is represented within a few streets. The cheapest beds are in the lanes behind Bangla Road and along Rat-U-Thit 200 Pi Road: guesthouses, hostels and small hotels that live off walk-in trade and short stays. The three-star tier is the backbone of the town centre, block after block of mid-sized hotels a few minutes on foot from the sand. Four-star resorts take the beach road itself, the Holiday Inn Resort being the obvious example with the sea across the street.
The five-star addresses have mostly been pushed to the edges, where there is space and a view: the Amari on the southern headland, the Diamond Cliff and a run of hillside resorts up towards Kalim in the north. For a booking this means that "Patong" covers everything from a fan room to a cliffside suite, and the star rating says more about location than usual — three stars is the middle of town, five stars is a headland with a shuttle. Villas barely exist inside Patong; the condominium towers behind Jungceylon and on the Kathu side of the hill are where monthly rentals come from, not the hotel stock.
Patong Beach is wide and gently shelving, calm from November to April, with loungers and jet-skis in the middle section and quieter sand at the Kalim and southern ends. From May to October the swell builds, Kalim becomes a surf break and red flags close the beach on rough days.
$25 a night is the median across all classes in Patong (n = 47, September 2026), with the middle half of the sample between $14 – $46. By class: $16 three-star, $42 four-star and $70 five-star. Two adults, one night booked thirty days ahead, before taxes and fees; observed in the low season.
$42 a night, the median of 10 four-star hotels in Patong in September 2026; the middle half of them cost $25 – $74. That is 32% below the island-wide four-star median of $62, 1st of 15 areas cheapest first.

The five-star median in Patong is $70 (n = 6) against $42 for four-star (n = 10), a premium of $28 a night or 67% (September 2026). The middle half of each class — $25 – $74 for four stars, $48 – $159 for five — shows whether they overlap: where they do, the classes compete for the same guest; where they do not, they are different products. Ratings are declared by the hotels themselves, so read the ranges before the medians.
