Hotels near Promenade in Phnom Penh

Great stay in the heart of Phnom Penh. Wonderful pool, good breakfast, and dinner. Staff very friendly and promptly supporting us. Spa with all kind of treatment. Hotel amenities, and room, very clean, top service. Strongly recommended.

I booked 3 nights. The hotel is located near the Palace. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the riverside where you can find many restaurants there. It takes another 10 minutes to walk to the night market. My room is luxury king size bed with balcony. It is clean, but the decoration is ordinary and not high class. For business stay it is satisfactory. Breakfast is not up to my expectation. Every day there are only three hot dishes, soup and you can order omlets, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, noodles, fried rice free of charge. Too few choices and i suggest you only book the room and not the breakfast. You better have your breakfast in nearby restaurants. Almost of the hotel guests are Westerners. I only saw a three Chinese guests on the last day of my stay. The room price is a little bit expensive given the quality of breakfast.

It’s never easy to choose a place to stay, but HOTEL KVL never turn me down. I’ve been staying there a few times with different room type. I love all the facilities and designation. Room is clean & good smell. Relaxing and peace. Staffs are very friendly, especially, the beautiful FOM “Nhean Sateka”. She is very helpful and friendly. Moreover, the foods and beverages at HOTEL KVL are delicious and acceptable price. You may enjoy eating & having coffee/tea with riverside sunrise/sunset/night view from your room or at Up by KVL (rooftop sky bar). They have coffee shop, the Alchemist, Skylight restaurant, Eltapas. You also enjoy the benefit gym at Vertical Gym. That’s all from my sharing, I bet you should try at least once at HOTEL KVL, you will be back again.

I had the most wonderful weekend at the Himawari Hotel and Apartments. I stayed at one of the newly renovated rooms and it was really great! I had a nice view of the Mekong river. The showers have good water pressure too. I was also impressed at the staff of the hotel. Incredibly polite and courteous, which put a smile on my face always. As a return guest, I was so pleased that some of the longer serving staff remembered me! It made me feel at home and that Himawari is one big family ❤️ I’ve always enjoyed my meals at the Oyster restaurant too. Buffet breakfast always excellent, as well as their regular menu. My favorite are the fish and chips (as good as any high end restaurants I’ve been too) and the beef Lok Lak over rice. Overall, I highly recommend staying at the Himawari when you’re visiting Phnom Penh. I’ll be looking forward to returning in the future!

An unfortunate experience, I found myself in the worst situation dealing with M Residence, as on the day of my check-in, the Sale Manager Vincent neglected to inform the receptionist about my booking, and instead of booking online for a fair rate, they wanted to charge me 50 USD per night, when it was only 24 USD online. Because the receptionist was new and unfamiliar with the process, she had to validate each step with her manager. It took me 45 minutes to check-in. The whole thing felt sketchy because I had to pay 130 USD with tax instead of 72 USD online with Airbnb small tax it would have cost max 86 USD if I recall. Anyway, I paid and received a very small room with hardly working air conditioning and filthy elevator. The swimming pool was breaking apart, and it appeared that the structure was inadequately maintained. There was no pool attendant, and no PH and CL analysis of the chemicals in the pool was available. The entire establishment is a shambles, and they definitely lack hospitality skills. Anyway I shared some information about my experience with the Manager who told me “The staff are so bad” I wanted to react and tell him that he should invest in training them but I could see there was no point in telling him has he clearly do not hold any sense of hospitality skills… The day before my departure I contact the “Receptionist Supervisor” and asked if I should do my check out now to collect my deposit back as I leave at 5:50 am and she informed to not to worry there is 24/7 staff at the lobby. Of course, the day of my check out there was no staff at the lobby to proceed my check-out so now they are ghosting me over 30 USD refund. In addition to all of this I intended to do a collaboration with the Sales manager upon my arrival a discount or free stay over some pictures which they gladly receive but never gave me proper feedback nor a compensation. M Residence is a disgrace to the hospitality industry in Cambodia. Their unethical practices and scams are not the way to conduct business.

We reserved a suite and a connecting room for our children. It felt as if we were in a flat. We stayed one week. We asked for a view on the Royal Palace, which I highly recommend. Hotel is very new and extremely comfortable and luxurious, staff very friendly and professional. Special mention for Sotheavy Hem in the breakfast lounge, dynamic and always ready to help and to the enthusiastic Srini. As othet reviews mentioned hotel is ideally placed. Hotel was above my expectations and I can only recommend to stay there.

This place has the best view in Phnom Penh. Team is extremely nice and kind, bed is comfy, room is spacious and feels like a cool studio with microvawe and water dispencer. Breakfast is good. I havent had a chance to swim but pool is very cool. However it is full of cockroaches. If one person mentioned this in their comments i wouldnt stay at this hotel. Not just one or two. I killed 15 16 teenager and 5 baby cockroaches. Didnt have a chance to meet parents. A friend of mine was staying another room and he left the hotel earlier and said there were even cockroaches in his pillow. So sad cockroaches took over the place!

The whole place felt grubby. Marks on the wall beside the toilet, below the mirror at the basin (like toothpaste/spit splash hadn’t been wiped), found a blood stain on the doona cover (see pic) that was hidden by it being folded down when we arrived. Ugly stain marks above the bed head (see pic). Towels are thin & need replacing. Drain in the shower was slow/partially blocked so you end up standing in a pool of wash water that almost overflows the shower. Pool has black scum along some edges (although water seems clean), sun lounges are mouldy. Our room wasn’t cleaned “because we didn’t ask for it to be”, but I had put out the ‘’make up my room’ sign after coming back from a city tour & seeing it hadn’t been cleaned. No instructions about needing to “request” a clean. Ran out of toilet paper & had overflowing rubbish as a result & had to call reception to bring paper. Breakfast is very average. I had low expectations after reading other reviews but it was bad. Ran out of food & had to ask them to refill. Coffee & tea was cold. Only the omelette was good, once I figured out eggs were included as the cook is outside & they don’t tell you about it when you come in. Reception didn’t give me back my passport (like they should!) when I checked in & I didn’t realise as I was distracted. Then when I checked out & said my room number, they looked at the computer & said “ok” and waved me off. Then I got to the airport & realised it wasn’t in my compendium like it should be. I had to pay to get it to the airport, no apology & then I find they had my room number clipped to it, so should have given it to me on checkout! The bed was ok comfort wise. Tuk tuk driver Son was attentive & helpful for trips around town. (See pic) Cocktails at happy hour are a good price & made well quality drinks. (See pic) Would not stay here even though it’s a cheap price & is in a good location.

Peaceful, Friendly and Clean. It’s well located near Royal Palace. Nice Local Hotel with French Colonial Decor.

I'm satisfied with everything about this hotel, and the room is big, but the breakfast may not be to my liking. Although the swimming pool on the top floor is not big, it is very outstanding. The location is also good,
