Raffles Hotel Le Royal  

From AU$ 201.00 single, AU$ 109.00 double/twin per person

Its combination of history, style and impeccable service makes Le Royal the place to stay in Phnom Penh. It’s not hard to imagine what Raffles Hotel Le Royal would have been like in its heyday. Throughout the hotel modern luxury merges seamlessly with old world charm in a subtle blend of Khmer, Art Deco and French colonial architecture.  

The rooms are no less remarkable. There are 171 rooms in total spread over three low-rise wings. There are six categories of rooms ranging from State Rooms in the hotel’s new wing to the luxurious two bedroom Le Royal Suite. There are also a number of memorabilia-decorated suites themed after former guests, including Somerset Maugham and Jacqueline Kennedy.

All rooms are tastefully appointed with a combination of French and Khmer-style furnishings, marble bathrooms, modern amenities and ornate flourishes. The hotel’s facilities do not disappoint either; from the excellent day spa to the ornate candelabras and crystal glassware of the private dining room and to-die-for cocktails in the Elephant Bar. You won’t want to leave.
