Raffles Grand Hotel d'Angkor

We had such a wonderful stay at Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor. It’s one of those hotels where you really feel the history the moment you arrive. The hotel first opened in 1932 and still carries that sense of old-world travel; wide corridors, elegant shutters and beautiful gardens. We were travelling as a family with our daughter, and the team made her feel so welcome. She absolutely loved the little in-room tent that had been set up for her, and one evening the butler even sent up cupcakes as a surprise, which completely made her day. One thing we particularly enjoyed was the complimentary programme of experiences offered by the hotel. We tried a few of them, including learning the art of lotus flower folding, which was surprisingly relaxing, and a cocktail-making session with the bartender, where we made an Angkor Sling. There are also other activities like tennis and cultural experiences around the hotel. After early mornings exploring the temples, coming back to the hotel pool is incredibly refreshing in the afternoons, and the gardens make the whole place feel like a sanctuary. We also loved afternoon tea in the Conservatory. The Champagne breakfast each morning was another highlight, along with a wide range of dishes made to order. Siem Reap has many beautiful hotels, but this one feels particularly special because of its history and character. For us, it struck the perfect balance of heritage, atmosphere and genuine warmth for families. We can’t wait to return!

We spent 4 excellent nights at the Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor. It proved to be a wonderful base for exploring both the town and the temples, while also offering a much-welcomed retreat during the hottest part of the afternoon. Breakfast and dining throughout the hotel were very well executed, and the guest rooms were modern, comfortable, and thoughtfully refreshed. This is one of the most historic hotels in Southeast Asia, with a long-standing relationship with the Cambodian royal family. The heritage of the property is immediately felt throughout the building and grounds. Above all, what stood out most to us was the remarkable tenure of the staff. Several team members have been with the hotel since it reopened. For us, this is one of the truest indicators of a genuine luxury property. When a hotel cares for its staff as well as it does its guests, the resulting level of hospitality is something that cannot easily be replicated.

I spent an excellent weekend with my husband as we got so many attention and care during the 2 days. The staff is attentive and warm and just focus to make your stay pleasant and comfortable . We had excellent food and cocktails, I personally love the overall decor of the hotel and not to mention very comfortable beds in your room . Highly recommend !

We had an unforgettable stay and truly enjoyed every moment of our visit. The service was exceptional, and the staff were incredibly warm and attentive throughout our stay. The room was comfortable, and beautifully prepared. Thank you to the Butler team and housekeeping team for your great and consistent service. We would highly recommend this place and look forward to returning again in the future.

This is a grand, old hotel. There’s a huge, gorgeous, delightful pool. It is heated to about 90 degrees Fahrenheit. As you’d expect, the in-house restaurants are overpriced. The shower stalls are shockingly tiny. And water leaks excessively onto the floor. Others in our group experienced the same thing so I know it wasn’t just me. The only other issue we had was the service at breakfast. Each day, we ordered tea and each day it took forever for the tea to arrive. Others in our group experienced this as well.
