Best Location in Phnom Penh”

The Palace Gate Hotel is located at the most strategic place in Phnom Penh. It's so close to the Royal Palace that you can just cross the road and walk into the entrance. It's also within walking distance to the National Museum, Riverside and Wat Botum Boulevard Park. The Hotel has spacious rooms with a large bed and balcony seating area. My favorite part about this place is the blue swimming pool which had minimal chlorine in it (my goggles broke before I got into the pool and I had to swim without it. My eyes did not feel the sharp pain from the chlorine which was perfect! We had our dinner and breakfast at the Mealea Fine Dining Restaurant which was in an 80-year old restored French Villa. The interior was splendid and the food was good as well. Highly recommended for anyone who wants privacy, peace and quiet.

Beautiful Hotel”

Great location just besides the Palace Gates and the hotel itself had a touch of class, which made you feel like a celebrity. It wasn't your big typical resort/hotel style, it had charm and character that made excellent use of their grounds. Also, with the hustle and bustle of Phnom Penh, the hotel did an excellent job of creating an environment that silenced most of the street noises which made it more like of spa/retreat. The rooms were super spacious, the bed and pillows were super comfortable. I rarely, like writing reviews but one deserves it. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Place”

We booked the Palace Gate in Phnom Penh and we were so delighted with our choice. The hotel was gorgeous and the staff was so friendly and helpful. We loved the view of the beautiful pool from our room and extended our stay because we were enjoying our stay and PP. The room was large and beautiful in the French colonial style. The breakfast was amazing in the AM. They have an espresso maker in the lobby anytime you wanted a coffee. The pool was so amazing and warm. Like a little Oasis. We spend most late afternoons sipping exotic cocktails and enjoying the beautiful warm saltwater pool. Staff was truly amazing. We will be back. I would highly recommend this hotel. Expensive compared to Cambodian prices. You can get cheaper elsewhere but the value you get at around $100 per night. Amazing and worth the few extra dollars.

The Palace Gate Hotel is a first class property; tastefully decorated, large rooms, very comfortable bed, exceptionally clean, very professional and friendly staff, and great location. Definitely select this hotel to stay when in Phnom Penh. Breakfast buffet is tasty and and a good variety to choose from.

Excellent stay!”

I really enjoyed staying at Palace Gate Hotel. The customer service is excellent, the restaurant food and breakfast is great and the rooms are very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Phnom Penh.

This is quite an amazing hotel in the heart of the tourist part of Phnom Penh. We had a Royal Suite Double overlooking the pool, we found it to be very nice. The bed was more comfortable than other 4/5 star resorts in Cambodia. The breakfast was bountiful but not as good as we found in Siem Reap or even in Koh Rong. The pool was a definite highlight, so large and clean with cool cabanas. It can be hard to get a spot by the pool at peak times but not super hard. The staff was friendly but not as personal as our resort in Siem Reap, as they are more business oriented here. The restaurant is pretty expensive, we did not eat there besides breakfast. The other clientele is primarily couples and chinese businessmen. Overall it was a very nice stay.

Very good city hotel ”

We had a stop off in Phnom Pehn before going to Siem Reap , hotel staff helped us arrange a tour guide for a full days tour and supplied a driver for the day, breakfast was brilliant so was the hotel food, however hotel has a big mosquito problem because of the greenery around the area and I want to mention that the pool view rooms are obscured by overgrown trees which is a bit of a let down, but you do get a view of the palace from the rooms, other than that it’s in a great central location it’s a great base for touring Phnom Penh

Got to try this before it was cool”

I booked this hotel with only few information available by that time like, name, 5star, room category. It was no risk because of free cancellation and very good prices for a 5 star hotel plus great location. I asked for more photos of the hotel on their facebook and was provided immediately. Shorty after our booking confirmed, staff emailed me a greeting email and provided me all necessary information. It was our anniversary and the hotel treated us with special decoration and free upgrade. The hotel is really nice actually, a lots of green and you feel very quiet even though in middle of tourist attractions. Knowing that it has just launched soft opening 2 weeks before, i didnt expect a lot and i think the room has done pretty good job. Yes there are many things to be improved like unstable wifi, no TV list, pet was allowed but these things can be improved. Overall design is nice but the bathroom lack of atmosphere, would love to have a glass looking over the room (i know some rooms has). The spa locates underground and lacks of spa feeling. The area was tiny and too dark. I know there is treatment room by the pool but my treatment was done in normal room. The prices were good, reasonable and the quality of therapists were decent as well. When i booked the room, it included free daily tuk tuk, our host did inform that by the time of checking but when we went out on that night, staffs didnt know about that but after few phone calls, they sorted out. On the good side, the hotel literally in front of royal palace, i can access to many places by walking. And the entrance to the hotel from Royal Palace is just so beautiful, with trees and buddha decoration. I spent most of my time by the pool, huge pool and very nice. Do try to get room with balcony, i've seen both Place view and River view, they all great. Nothing beat having cup of tea during sunset from your balcony. I would say booking this hotel now because you may not get the same prices as they are now. For me t

Just where you want to be ...”

Palace Gates is right across the road from the entrance gates to the Royal Palace and a stroll from the Riverside promenade (Preah Sisowath Quay) where you catch the river/dinner cruises along with inexpensive bars and restaurants. Welcome was friendly and efficient and we were shown to our third floor room with a pool view; we got a pool view (and a palace view) with a neat balcony. The bathroom was huge with a great walk in shower. The bed was wide and comfortable; maybe a little hard for some. Special mention of the vast array of plug sockets for all kinds of plugs (other hotels take note). We used the pool each day; loungers always available. We took advantage of happy hour(s) at the pool and the 'sky bar' overlooking the Royal Palace; you could watch the sunset with drinks and food. Breakfast was excellent. The selection should be more than enough for anyone and included an egg station and also a noodle station! An all round top hotel and worth a return visit.

A genuine oasis”

The photos on the website do not do this hotel justice. We stayed for 2 nights and found it a genuine oasis of serenity in an otherwise imperfect city. The room was just what we wanted, the restaurant food was excellent and we very much enjoyed the pool and happy hour(s). The hotel staff were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. All in all, we were very glad we stayed here and would stay there again should we ever return to Phnom Penh.

Hospitality at its finest!”

Excellent hotel located in the city center yet I hardly felt the city buzz during my 3-night stay (Aug 17-20). The hotel has the warmest and most welcoming staff who treated me royally. Airport pick-up was included in my booking but since I was traveling by bus from Phnom Penh, I requested a pick-up at the bus station at the last minute. I arrived at Siem Reap a few hours later and Sophie was patiently waiting for me. From that day on, they made sure that everything was perfect. I was offered refreshments and cold towel as soon as I got in the car. The welcome drinks and snacks are actually what I consider a full meal (and they kept on coming during my stay!) were yummy. Upon check-in, I was provided all the information I needed. I was invited for a free 5-course dinner and was surprised by a huge cake with the entire staff singing me a happy birthday song! I personally loved the free banana chips and bedtime stories. Shout out to Sophie, Alice, Sak, Mesa and the rest of the team!

Great Hotel”

I have a lived in Phnom Penh for 10 years and also stayed in many hotels there, so I can say, with some credibility, that this is one of the best hotels in PP. Great pool, great restaurant [with the best breakfast in PP bar-none, I could sit eating breakfast for hours] and excellent facilities. The only small downside is that they have a small number of cheaper rooms which have the toilet and shower in a glass room within your room, which is not too everyone's tastes. But book any of the better rooms and you will be delighted - they are spacious and beautiful. Highly recommended.

Great place!”

Hotel itself and the staff really nice and the pool is great! Location is also good, right next to the palace and close enough to the other main touristic attractions. Food is alright, if they would have a bigger selection it would improve. If I ever come back to Phnom Penh I will stay here again! Would recommend ✔

An oasis in central Phnom Penh”

Palace Gate Hotel is an oasis in the heart of bustling Phnom Penh. Highly recommend it if it is for a weekend getaway or a stay in this quaint city.

Very nice stay - extremely friendly staff - perfect location - will come again”

the stay over all was perfect - the hotel staffs are extremely friendly - the breakfast was one of the best I ever have seen - the price and what I've got for it was extremely attractive - a successful and perfect joice Remark to the Management: I've booked a Taxi via Palace Gate Hotel from the Hotel to the Airport. The Taxi driver was friendly but the car was absolutely dirty and not as I would have been expecting from a Hotel recommended and organized Taxi. Beside of this on the way to the Airport, the driver went to a Petrol station for Gasolin. This must be done before the given lift to the Airport.

Highly recommend”

Amazing hotel close to everything in Phnom Penh for the Tourist. Hotel is beautiful, restful. The pool area is serene and quiet.....hard to find in this bustling city. I cannot say enough about the staff...They are helpful and accomodating and for anyone traveling for business or pleasure....This is the place to go; their spa is also very peaceful and staff is excellent; even if you just need a self indulgent get away or a romantic trip, this hotel suits all needs

Very good!”

The hotel itself and the staff are very nice + the pool is great! Location is good. Right next to the grand palace and the other main attractions from the city are close enough. The food was alright, a bit more variety on the menu would improve it. Would recommend! I will definetely stay again if I vist Phnom Penh again!

Centralized, Attentive Service, Warm, Cozy Hotel!”

Super nice breakfast buffet in Phnom Penh! As a matter of fact, the best buffet I ever had in several 5 star hotels in Phnom Penh! Excellent front office's service & room attendants' service, as well! Love it! Ralph

Was travelling with my mum for her birthday, and even though it wasn't her birthday while we were staying here they gave a delicious birthday cake and sang happy birthday to her. Phnom Penh can be a bit hectic and this hotel provides a perfect haven, in an excellent location. Tip: get a room with a balcony, you'll regret it otherwise.

Lovely hotel with friendly staff, great intro to Cambodia ”

Pool is pristine and a haven away from the bustle of Phnom Penh. The palace next door is super convenient and it’s an easy walk to riverside, markets and more. Would absolutely recommend.
