Stunning Bill Bensley architecture that blends Art Deco with Khmer heritage
The central courtyard with its ancient banyan tree and swing tables
Two distinct pools: a saltwater lap pool and a free-form lagoon pool
In sintesi: It’s a gorgeous 'urban oasis' that is starting to show its age in the details, with food prices that will make you want to eat on the street instead.
Recensito da @comeflywithlove: I booked this just for a place to crash near Angkor Wat, but I honestly struggled to leave the property. The courtyard pool is pure magic, and having the Apsara dancers perform at dinner made me feel like royalty. It's pricey but 100% worth it for the vibe.

Prima di prenotare
Buono a sapersi
The hotel hosts a free Apsara dance performance in the courtyard on Mon/Thu/Sat evenings.
Tuk-tuks arranged by the hotel are reliable but cost 2-3x more than grabbing one on the street (use Grab app for fair prices).
The 'Glasshouse' deli has great AC and pastries but charges US prices.
Cosa portare
US dollars (crisp, new bills only) as they are the de facto currency
Earplugs if you end up in a street-facing room
Modest clothing (shoulders/knees covered) for temple visits
Genio delle camere
Migliori scelte
Park Suites (King) for the separate living area and courtyard views
Rooftop Garden Suites for maximum privacy and private sunbathing space
Pool Suites on the ground floor if you want direct water access (but beware of privacy issues from neighbors)
Camere da evitare

Connecting rooms if you are sensitive to noise from neighbors
Genio delle richieste camera – copia e incolla
“I am a light sleeper and would love a room facing the inner courtyard or banyan tree, strictly away from Sivutha Boulevard. If available, a room on the top floor would be preferred to minimize overhead noise.”
FAQ e consigli nascosti
Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.
Is it close to Angkor Wat?
Yes, it's about a 15-20 minute tuk-tuk ride to the main temple complex.
Is the pool heated?
No, and the ground floor saltwater pool is very shaded, making it quite chilly in the cool season (Dec-Jan).
Can I walk to Pub Street?
Yes, it is a very easy 5-7 minute walk, close enough to access but far enough (mostly) to escape the noise.
Does the hotel offer airport transfers?
Yes, but they charge ~$50 USD. A Grab or local taxi will cost you a fraction of that ($10-15).
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your rate, but it is highly recommended—an excellent mix of Western buffet and made-to-order Khmer dishes.
Are there mosquitoes?
Yes, it is Cambodia. The hotel fogs regularly, but bring repellent for the outdoor dining areas.

5 cose da sapere prima di partire
💡The 'swing tables' in the courtyard are fun for photos but terrible for actually eating a full meal comfortably.
💡The ground floor 'Pool Suites' have private plunge pools, but they are right next to the main walkway, so privacy is limited.
💡The hotel was formerly the Hotel de la Paix and retains some of that old-school colonial fortress vibe.
💡You can hear the Apsara dance music from your room if you face the courtyard—great if you like it, annoying if you're napping at 7 PM.
💡The 'Glasshouse' patisserie discounts pastries by 50% after 6 PM (verify current timing).
