如果以下情况适用,请预订 You want to sip a Femme Fatale in the same spot Jackie O did, surrounded by French colonial grandeur rather than glass-and-steel sterility.
The legendary Elephant Bar and its 100+ gin collection
Two lush courtyard pools that feel like a jungle oasis in the chaotic city
Genuine history—this was the journalist hub before the Khmer Rouge era
快速了解: It’s a Grand Dame in every sense: elegant, storied, and occasionally showing her age with creaky floors and smallish bathrooms.
@VanessaDewson 的评论: I felt like I stepped into a time machine at Raffles. The colonial architecture is stunning, and sipping a cocktail at the Elephant Bar where Jackie O once visited was a total highlight. It’s not just a hotel; it’s a piece of history. Absolutely magical stay.
住过这里的客人说
The hype
Travelers adore the colonial atmosphere and the pool area, calling it a 'sanctuary' from Phnom Penh's heat.
Reality check
Some guests feel the rooms are 'tired' compared to the gleaming new Rosewood nearby, citing worn carpets or dated shower setups.
You own a linen suit and love the idea of 'travel' over 'tourism'
You prioritize gardens and history over floor-to-ceiling glass windows
You want a pool you can actually swim laps in without fighting influencers
清洁与维护
9.2
Housekeeping: Twice-daily service including turndown. Generally impeccable, though some corners show the building's age.
Bathroom hygiene: Spotless tiles and grout, though the vintage fixtures can sometimes look worn despite being clean.
Maintenance: Excellent upkeep of the grounds and pools. Some creaky floorboards and older AC units in the historic wing.
Linens & towels: High-thread-count, crisp white linens. Towels are plush and plentiful.
Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh flowers and lemongrass; rooms are generally fresh, though humidity can cause a faint mustiness in older carpets.

“I would love a State Room in the new wing facing the pool for maximum quiet. If possible, a higher floor to minimize any courtyard noise.”
常见问题和隐藏提示
预订前您真正想了解的一切。
Is the pool crowded?
Rarely. There are two pools (one family, one lap), so it's easy to find a lounge chair even on weekends.
Can I walk to the river?
Yes, it's about a 15-20 minute walk, but in the Phnom Penh heat, you'll likely want a $2 tuk-tuk ride.
Is there a dress code?
Resort casual works for the day. For dinner and the Elephant Bar, long trousers and closed shoes for men are recommended but not strictly enforced.
Does the hotel have an elevator?
Yes, there are elevators, though the historic staircase is the more scenic route.
Is it kid-friendly?
Yes, there is a dedicated family pool, but the overall vibe is quite adult and sedate.
How much is the deposit?
Standard practice is around $50-100 USD per night hold on your card for incidentals.
内部人士建议
✨
Happy Hour at Elephant Bar runs 4pm-9pm (check exact times on arrival) with 50% off some drinks—a steal.
✨
Ask the concierge for a tour of the hotel's history; they often have stories about the war correspondents who stayed here.
✨
The 'Landmark' rooms have the history, but the 'State' rooms have the balconies. Choose wisely.

💡There's a 'Highest Heel' competition at the Elephant Bar on certain nights—ask the bartender.
