Perfect hotel for spending a few days in Phnom Penh and exploring the city. Staff is friendly and helpful. The accomodation is clean and you can see the staff takes good care of the place. For us, the swimming pool was the biggest asset of the hotel; nothing better than to dive in cold water after a hot and dusty... More

Beautiful hotel with beautiful rooms and fantastic, helpful staff. What a relaxing place to come home to after a really hot, busy (and emotional day) day of sight seeing. Great pool, food and cheap drinks - it's got it all!! We (me, hubby & 4 kids) were upgraded into larger rooms and they were gorgeous. Can't promote it any more... More

From my experience best place in town at this price. As with many other hotels local girl companion MUST be booked in at original check in arrival time. In fact rule is marriage certificate must be shown.

Perhaps it is an optical illusion but the Billabong seems to have gotten away with building a bigger pool than many of the newer properties & boutique hotels that have opened up in Phnom Penh lately and that feature a pool, I jokingly call "towel size". My pool view room was perfectly adequate in size and there was nothing I... More

We (couple) spent a week here and will definitely be back; in this price range it would be hard to beat. Previously we've used a couple of places on the riverfront and wanted somewhere more relaxed with a pool, and this is ideal. Less than 15min walk to riverside/Sisowath, 5min to Sorya Shopping Centre/cinemas and a further 3 from there... More

Clean hotel, relaxing feel. Lovely pool , reasonable drinks prices at bar and in room. Friendly helpful staff. Don't be put off by road outside , safe to walk around. Good restaurant Romdeng nearby where they train street teenagers as cooks and waiters. Had a good meal there in a lovely old colonial house. Would recommend the Billabong Hotel .

We really enjoyed our stay at the Billabong, they were especially accommodating to our family with our 4 kids. The pool was lovely. I really liked how I could sit in the restaurant and have my kids swimming right there. The staff was helpful in arranging tourist things that I wanted to do. I do wish, however, they were a... More

I checked out if the hotel earlier on today. I had stayed here for 3 nights. I arrived from Siem Reap and went straight to the hotel and checked in. I was located on the 2nd floor. When I went to my room which was located at the back of the hotel, I dicscovered that the WiFi wasn't working. I... More
