My wife and I spent one night at this beautiful hotel for our honeymoon. The service from start to finish was outstanding. All the staff there are very highly trained and friendly. We spoke to everyone from the cleaners to the General Manger. We felt like royalty as soon as we arrived. Firstly, we were both greeted with a cold... More

This hotel is a fantastic place to stay, the Raffles group have made it a modern hotel while keeping the colonial charm. You can spend a day exploring the hotel. It is where the journalists stayed during the war and features in the movie “The Killing Fields”, there is a memorial to the journalist in the park outside. The whole... More

Raffles Phnom Penh is in my top three hotels in the world. Luxury, service, ambiance and great food. The Elephant bar is the place to relax with that gin and tonic and the pool the place to relax and rebalance the brain and body after touring the city.

This is by far the best place I stayed in Cambodia. The building, staff and the quality of professionalism is awsome... The waiters for example just look at you and remember immediatly what you had ordered yesterday. Rooms a bit on the small side but its an old colonial building with charm. Great swimmingpools but not deep... Stay there if... More

Grab a cocktail, glass of wine or bite to eat by the pool if you want to get away from the busy streets. Full of history and elegance, you must try Elephant Room during happy hour. You'll feel as though you've stepped into the 1970's. Very close to Wat Phnom.

Stepping into the Raffles PP is like stepping back in time. You can almost imagine what Jackie Kennedy felt like visiting in the '60s (there are many of photos of her throughout the hotel). The atmosphere and service were top notch. Staff tried their best at all times, even when they were a bit unsure with their english. Landmark room... More
