Panmanee Hotel

Ko Phi-Phi


Tucked to the side of the food market and away from the noise of the bars (although the nearby mosque's early morning call to prayer may wake you), the rooms here are comfortable without being spectacular and come with decent-sized, contemporary bathrooms. The location close to the pier and different beaches is ideal if you're in exploring mode.
