Laundromats?

Are there places for self-service laundry in Phuket? Debating whether or not to plan for it. I dont want to pay through the nose for laundry at like a hotel or anything. But I%26#39;d rather do laundry so I dont have to overpack for our 3-wk trip. Please advise!



Laundromats?


Hi Ektk, I have never seen a laundromat in the Kata Karon areas maybe there is one in Patong. The thais have a great laundry service away from the resorts %26amp; very cheap. What i do is buy a small packet of laundry powder from 7 11 %26amp; wash out underwear %26amp; costumes,boardies in the bathtub. The rest we take a bag of washing every couple of days to the laundry lady %26amp; pick up the following day. If we are running out of t shirts we would just go %26amp; buy more. Three weeks in thailand wow you are very lucky. Have fun. CJ

Depending on the area you are staying will be the price you pay for getting your laundry done. Hotels charge per item. There are many places on the street that charge per kilo. We payed 50bht in Kata and they do a very good job. Don鈥檛 waste your time in Thailand doing the washing theirs better things to do.




hi there



we used to take laundry powder with us to Phuket then we discovered the ladies outside the resorts that do the washing



for you at a very cheap price. Just look for the signs everywhere



advertising laundry, you will quickly find a favourite to keep going back to. It really is not worth even washing your smalls as their



so cheap. washing comes back clean and sweet smelling.Oh to have someone at home to do this job!



But seriously go out to the street they are a lot cheaper than the hotel laundry services. And you you don%26#39;t have to sit and watch



your washing going round and round.




We stayed at The Sheraton Grande Laguna and on the beach in a little hut is a laundry service-cost per item.



Very cheap, beautifully clean and back to us in two days all ironed pressed and folded in bags.



It was lovely to go home with hardly any dirty laundry and clean clothes you could put straight away.



As people have said there are better things to do on holiday than the laundry and the prices on the beach are at least a quarter of the price that the hotel charges.




Hi



We stayed at the Holiday Inn at Patong and In the markets behind called the big O Patong was a lady who did washing for 10baht a piece of clothing. It all came back clean and pressed and sealed in a plastic bag.Her clothing shop was near the circular bars.
