Reviewers universally praise the staff's warmth and the stunning design, calling it a 'home away from home' in a hectic city.
Park Hyatt Siem Reap
$200-400/ noche
Reserva esto si You want a Bill Bensley-designed Art Deco sanctuary that feels like a fortress of calm in the middle of Siem Reap's chaos.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- 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
Resumen rápido: 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.
Reseñado por @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.

Preguntas frecuentes y consejos ocultos
Todo lo que realmente quieres saber antes de reservar.
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.

Happy Hour at The Living Room (usually 5-7 PM) offers 2-for-1 cocktails, making the prices much more palatable.
- ✨
The 'Le Petit Chef' 3D dining experience is available here if you want a quirky, tech-heavy meal, though it's not traditional.
5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡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).
