From the real rates of 80 popular hotels in Phuket, pulled 16 Oct 2026: of the 86 nights ahead, 40 are cheaper than usual, 15 are normal and 31 are pricier than usual.

This page is rooozt's own price index for Phuket, rebuilt every week from a fixed set of the city's 80 most-reviewed hotels. Every night is priced with the same occupancy (2 adults, 1 room) and compared with the median of all 86 nights of the same city — so "cheap" here means cheaper than Phuket's own coming quarter, never cheaper than another city or another website. Use it to pick dates; use the search button to see live prices for them.
Calendar: every night, October 2026 to January 2027
Green = ฿ at least 5% below the city median · yellow = ฿฿ within ±5% · red = ฿฿฿ at least 5% above · white = no reading for that night (fewer than 20 of the 80 hotels returned a rate).

How this index is calculated
rooozt keeps a fixed "universe" of Phuket's 80 most-reviewed hotels (review score ≥ 7, ≥ 100 reviews) and, through its own feed access, asks for every one of them for every night of the next 90 — 2 adults, 1 room, Thai baht, before taxes — a few nights at a time, so the whole set refreshes about weekly. For each night it stores only the median rate across those hotels, then divides by the median of all nights: that ratio is the number shown as a percentage. Bands: ฿ ≤ −5%, ฿฿฿ ≥ +5%. Newest reading in this build: 16 Oct 2026; oldest: 16 Oct 2026. No individual hotel's rate is stored or shown.
What this page is not
It is not a price list, not a forecast and not a guarantee: rates change by the hour, and a night marked ฿ can still be expensive at a specific hotel. It compares Phuket with itself only — it says nothing about whether Phuket is a cheap destination. Nights with fewer than 20 readings are left blank rather than guessed. On nights where many of the 80 hotels are already sold out, the median comes only from the rooms still open — usually the dearer ones — so a very high figure (shown with its hotel count, e.g. 47/80) means "pricier AND the cheap rooms are gone", not a pure price rise.

›Are weekends more expensive than weekdays in Phuket?

›Where do these numbers come from, and how often are they updated?
From rooozt's own feed access: the same 80 popular Phuket hotels are priced for every night of the next 90 with the same occupancy, a few nights per pass, so the set refreshes about once a week. Each night's figure is its median rate divided by the median of all nights — a ratio, not a price. This page was built from the pull of 16 Oct 2026; the search button shows live prices.
