Hotel Cambodiana

Unlike many large hotels around the world, Hotel Cambodiana manages to maintain its character and represent Cambodia’s rich culture and heritage to globetrotters. Designed in the 1960s by one of the premier architects of the country Lu Ban Hap, the design is inspired by traditional Cambodian temples and pagodas. Although slightly dated, the hotel has something classic about it. Standing through the terrible Cambodian civil war, this hotel has been a constant highlight of the ever-growing CBD of Phnom Penh. Offering gorgeous views of Tonle Sap and Mekong delta, the hotel boasts a great location. The Sisowath Quay is a short walk up the road and provides a great spot for a riverside walk, sunset run or just a cold beer and people watching. The Royal Palace, Silver Pagoda and National Museum are also close by, along with many great restaurants and bars.

As mentioned earlier, Hotel Cambodiana is classic but slightly dated and this is reflected in the rooms, classified into executive suite, junior suite, Mekong club room as well as superior and deluxe room. An executive suite comes with a separate bedroom and a lounge space. Rooms include buffet breakfast, which is always a plus! What the rooms lack, the hotel facilities make up for. There are restaurants, poolside bar, lobby bar, bakery, laundry shop and event space for conferences and private functions, to mention a few. With a fully equipped health club on-site, Hotel Cambodiana is a great choice for fitness freaks looking to work out even during their holidays. The Physique Club has a range of state-of-the-art equipment, tennis court, swimming pool as well as steam and sauna facility.
