this hotel really is in the best location and is the only one in my opinion to stay in. it has a lovely colonial feel and decor, it is wonderfully clean and the staff are excellent. the only down side is the price of the food, which in my mind whilst ok it did not meet the standards that you would expect for the prices charged. though having said that i would still recommend staying here whilst in Phnom Penh. The Spa is fantastic and whilst not the cheapest in Asia, it is still affordable as cheaper than UK prices

Location

Expensive food

  • Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : casino in town is fun... does not require full dress code or passport so you can nip in during the day

Arriving for the first time in Cambodia, with all its extraordinary history, the Raffles,Le Royal must be THE place to stay. Very welcoming, friendly and helpful, the staff went out of their way to ensure our stay was comfortable and our onward trip all sorted. They gave us valuable advice and looked after us. Breakfast choices were varied and good, with plenty of fresh fruit and freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices. cannot recommend this hotel enough. It's a MUST visit. As well as cocktails in the Elephant Bar.

Very friendly and helpful staff, nice swimming pool and comfortable room.

None

  • Travel tip : Try an evening swim in the pool up till 10.00. Very relaxing.

This was my first visit to Phnom Penh and The Raffles,le Royal Hotel. Truly memorable. A great way to start a tour. Helpful staff, couldn't do enough for me and my daughter. Very comfortable room and beautiful bathroom with everything to hand. The Elephant Bar is a great setting for pre dinner cocktails with a pianist playing memorable tunes on a grand piano. A visit to the spa and a swim before dinner, all helped to make this a memorable stay. This is a MUST STAY hotel.

Wonderful atmosphere and surroundings,with a sense of history.Professional staff, excellent, personal service and all friendly.

The French colonial hotel is opulent and charming. We only wish we had stayed a bit longer to really experence all the hotel had to offer. It certainly is able to bring the charm of yesteryear to PP but at the same time make you fell a bit guilty when you are surrounded by the poverty of Cambodia. We will be back.

Its all fantastic. Beautiful rooms, beautiful breakfast and meals, bars pool gardens. Staff were wonderful and we felt like princesses for the night!

We had no concerns at all.

Raffles is a great place to stay. The staff assisted with all our needs and questions and welcomed our driver. The room was spotless and the hotel provided electric mosquito repllent. the bistro has an excellent seafood buffet on the weekends. It is well located in Phnom Penh. It's close to Wat Phnom and not far from the riverfront restaurant strip. The hotel has a tour desk. You need access to these things in Phnom Penh to make life a bit easier.

A great hotel, excellent service from staff, wonderful pool, great food.

The piped music in the hall ways was a bit irritating.

  • Shopping Tip : There is a western style supermarket not far from the hotel on corner of Monivong Ave and Kampuchea St. It closer to the central markets than the Russian market. We thought central markets were better.

The Raffles is definitely the best choice for Phnom Penh. I don't think there is another option in this luxury category.

  • Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : You can walk the whole city from the hotel, unless you are on a tight time schedule, then I recommend to grab a tuk tuk. They are all lined up in front of the hotel.
