Food & drink prices at InterContinental Phuket Resort by IHG
Food and beverage pricing at the InterContinental Phuket is mixed: some reviewers find prices reasonable for quality, while others report high restaurant costs and expensive breakfast offerings.
All claims are recent (April–June 2026), with negative pricing complaints concentrated in April–June reviews and the single positive value assessment from early June 2026.
What the reviews tell us
Restaurant prices cited as high and not well-justified, with specific example of $8 coconut drinks
Breakfast offerings are expensive with ordinary quality, according to recent guest feedback
At least one reviewer found F&B prices reasonable and well-aligned with quality
All minibar items are charged; no complimentary beverages in-room
The InterContinental Phuket Resort presents a mixed pricing picture across food and beverage offerings. One UK reviewer praised the value proposition, stating prices are reasonable for the quality provided. However, recent reviews from Chinese and Hong Kong guests specifically criticized high restaurant pricing, with breakfast flagged as particularly expensive relative to the ordinary quality offered. A specific complaint about coconut drinks being priced at $8 exemplifies the perceived premium pricing in casual dining. Additionally, all minibar items are confirmed to be chargeable, with no complimentary offerings. The contradictory assessments of value suggest that perception of F&B pricing reasonableness may be influenced by reviewer origin or reference points, or there may be genuine variance in pricing across different venues within the resort.
Direct disagreement on F&B pricing reasonableness by reviewer origin
A UK reviewer (claim 35195) stated prices are very reasonable for quality, while Chinese reviewers (claims 31789, 39224) and an unidentified reviewer (claim 39846) consistently reported high pricing. This could reflect different baseline expectations: guests from high-cost-of-living regions (Hong Kong, mainland China) may perceive Thai resort prices as expensive relative to local offerings, while the UK guest may view them as reasonable relative to European resort pricing, or it may indicate genuine pricing variation across different dining venues.
The evidence
Both sides shown — including dissenting reviewsall very reasonable for the quality
the breakfast offerings though pricey looked quite ordinary
