Technically, there are no affordable rooms in 5 star hotels in Phuket because they can all be costly. However, you can stay in a luxurious hotel and experience an opulent lifestyle without breaking the banks. There are several ways to minimize your travel experience especially with your hotel rates. Some of the simple yet effective ways include the following.

Book in advance. There are several advantages of booking ahead or at least a few weeks before your travel time. One is the guarantee that you will have a room when you arrive in Phuket and another is you can ask for discounts from the hotel. There are even hotels that offer automatic discounts for advance booking especially for bookings during off season. Off season hotel accommodation are generally lower than peak season. One thing to note is that peak seasons also vary from one country to another and even from one area in a particular country to another. To ensure that you get to book in one of those 5 star hotels in Phuket during off season, make a research about Thailand and its tourist season.

Look for exciting hotel deals. Another way to reduce your travel expenses is to look for hotel deals or packages that will allow you to save money while enjoying the hotel services. You can check from the hotel’s special offer tab or you can send an email to the hotel to inquire what their current special offers are. The good thing about sending a direct hotel inquiry is that the hotel will consider you as a serious potential customer so they would most likely offer room upgrade or exciting deals to ensure that you will book with them.

Take advantage of membership perks. There are luxury hotels that offer membership discounts or automatic room upgrades to guests who are members of certain groups, organizations and sectors. You can also use your credit card points to lower your hotel expenses. Check the websites of 5 star hotels in Phuket  to find out where you can use your membership to gain discounts.
