Find Hotels in Sen Monorom, Cambodia

We spent a few days in Sen Monorom mainly to visit the Elephant Valley Project but also to see other local sights and visit a local village. Our choosing Mayura Hill Resort as our base was a great choice. It is a bit out of town but between the staff helping and a cheap yuk-yuk ride that was never a problem. Our room was very comfortable and had a very pleasent balcony outside. The pool was well maintained and a welcome treat at the end of the day. Sitting with a quiet drink on the resorts main balcony and watching the local birdlife was a daily treat. Food at the resort was good but the best part of our stay was the staff. Everyone was friendly and had a smile - from the gardeners to the resturant to the room staff - everyone was helpful. From showing us what and how to eat the fruit growing around the resort to helping organise tour and busses they were all great. Well done Daly!

Phnom Penh in April is very hot so it was great to go to the town of Sen Monorom and resort of Nature Lodge to experience cooler temperatures. NL is only 5 miniutes or so by tuktuk from the town centre. We walked it a couple of times but a Tuktuk is more comfortable. The host Theresa looked after us and helped us with booking and daily needs. The big communal area was like living in the trees! We had already booked an elephant tour with another operator but Nature Lodge has its own affiliation and I hear its tours are great. We also took a 1/2 day tuktuk tour of the area through NL and we had a great driver and really enjoyed the trip. Because we booked late for Khmer New Year period only a 4 person room was available and though this was more expensive than we wanted to pay, we were very happy with the room. Very spacious with two king sized beds. Good for families. In fact it's like a farm-stay as there are cows and ponies wandering over the extensive grounds.

The rooms were way BETTER than I expected for the price. BEST COFFEE I'VE HAD IN CAMBODIA!!! I am a coffee lover, coming from Melbourne, it's been hard to find good coffee...this places has the best I've ever had in Cambodia!!! The owner is a lovely Cambodian woman who speaks perfect English. She has two gorgeous children who give the place a really nice atmosphere. She is more than happy to help with ANYTHING.

For me, who has been traveling in SE Asia for 2 months, I was ready for some comfort. I was shocked to find it here in N Cambodia, at such a good price. I loved the large room, the amazing vista (I'd requested best possible view), the feel of a western hotel, incredible hot water. The wifi was fast - much appreciated. The down side for others (not for me) was the 5 minute walk to town. For me, that was a plus - chance to get some exercise. You can also order a moto. The negative was the staff's not speaking English more than a few words. The toilet had the usual dyspeptic difficulty in flushing, so check it out before you take a room if that's important to you.

We stayed at the Indigenous People Lodge for three days. They have all sorts of home stay opportunities, treks and local tours (waterfalls mostly) they can arrange but they didn't pressure us to do any of it with them. Our bungalow had two beds w/ mosquito nets, a large bathroom and small porch for sitting in the evening which we enjoyed. Sen Monorom is much cooler than the lowlands so the fan we had at night was adequate. The staff were very helpful with info about the local area. If you need all the modern amenities hotels have these days, then you probably should look elsewhere for accommodations. I hasten to add that the Indigenous People Lodge is not some backpacker hangout. It's far superior to that. The coffee at breakfast was real drip coffee (by the cup) unlike any coffee we've had in Cambodia and it was delicious! I know that sounds funny, but it was a highlight each morning we were there. They are slowly improving the grounds with interesting local flora and we really enjoyed our relaxing stay at the Indigenous People Lodge. We hope to return there someday.

$4/night for a private bungalow with electricity and an ensuite bathroom? Great! However, it's also good to note that our bungalow came with - sheets that weren't just stained (all over, in all colors) but dirty. - a sticky blanket that felt like it hadn't been washed in awhile - a Western toilet with half a toilet seat left that needed to be manually flushed - water pressure at a trickle (cold water only and a wet floor, of course) - all manner of insect roommates (but NOT bed bugs...I checked and that would have been a deal-breaker) - no towels, trash bins, or windows But on the other hand, the English-speaking staff were lovely. And the puppies onsite were at that adorable roly-poly stage where they love to cuddle and play. (In sore need of flea and worm treatment, though...) ...for some it's a great deal, for others an adventure, so...like I said, you get what you pay for!

Our stay was short as we only needed one nights accommodation before going to the elephant valley project outside of town. After a long day of driving in a cramped van to Sen monorom from Phnom Penh, we arrived at 8pm, we were greeted by welcoming faces who helped us to our room. We hadn't had dinner on the bus so we went to the empty dining room where a wonderful girl came out and made food specially for us. The food was lovely and fresh! Our night was pleasant with a clean room and warm showers and when we had to leave early in the morning for the EVP, we had breakfast ready for us! The staff and their welcoming manner made the stay easy and enjoyable!

I said I made a reservation and he had my reservation application. But he said “No room but AGODA has received a reservation” When I asked waht I would do. He said again “No room” and then he offered to give me a room with an air-conditioner for another 10 dollars. I said I wanted the roon I reserved but there is no use. If they returen the amount paid, I look for another accommodation. But they didn’t even give me a refund. I had to pay 6 dollars more to say in. It was a terrible thing I never want to go through gain.
