Description
Number 9 Sister Guesthouse is an attractive wooden setup with a spacious balcony area overlooking the lake. The guesthouse is loaded up with plants, including lots of orchids -- it's a very pretty setting. Rooms are spotless and those with bathroom are a better deal as the ones with share bathroom are pretty cramped. All the rooms are cold-water only and none have TVs. For the area, this is a very good spot and attracts a good crowd if you're up for a lively atmosphere.

The difference between them and the places around is that their home cinema is far enough from the terrasse.People who would like to enjoy some music under the stars will fing a good spot here. The rooms are not appealing. I decided not to stay there.
Great lakeside terrace -

Very basic rooms and bugyy, but the restaurant/bar has good food and nice atmosphere. Easy to meet people and the bar is always full. Their sister guesthouse in Siem Reap has nicer rooms and the same menu.
Lovely decor but Basic facilities -

Rooms are located along a very pleasant promenade towards the lake, with potted flowers lining the pathway.
The bathroom looked alright at first but then none of the appliances worked. A tattered, ineffective mosquito net was provided though there was no blanket.
The verandah's an excellent choice for breakfast or an evening beer, though.

Cafe Freedom and Lodge
15 Street 93, Phnom Penh
No-frills Cafe Freedom and Lodge is easily the best budget option in the area. It has well-sized wooden rooms with private bathroom and fan. They have seven of these rooms, so making a reservation is a good idea, else they have a handful of concrete rooms to deal with the overflow. The very... more
Grand View Guest House
4Eo Street 93, Phnom Penh
This large, multi-storey place isn't right on the lake, but some of the rooms do have views over it. The rooms are clean and well looked after, though they're only mid-sized. The roof-top restaurant and bar is pretty good. The air-con rooms have cable TVs. A full range of travel services are... more
#10 Lakeside Guest House
#10 Street 93, Phnom Penh
This large guesthouse has loads of rooms -- all with paper-thin walls, but at least the staff are friendly. It's under new ownership as of 2006, and the new guy, Phanna, speaks excellent English and aims to please. We have received some negative feedback from users about this place in the past, but... more
#9 Guest House
9 Street 93
Located next-door to Lake Side Guest House, this equally large place has equally cheap and equally grotty rooms -- it isn't quite as popular as Lakeside and deals with its... more
Sunrise Bar and Guesthouse
Street 93
This isolated spot is better for a drink than a bed, as they have a great veranda overlooking the lake and watching the great sunsets, but the rooms in the wooden building are very basic. That aside, it's a friendly spot and a good walk from the other places -- almost in front of the mosque. Very... more
Malis Guest House & Restaurant
19 Street 93, Phnom Penh
The Malis sets itself apart from the score of other lakeside places by not being on the lake. This will be a major downside for some, but Malis also attracts a more low-key crowd, has clean rooms at good prices, a friendly, welcoming staff, and a whole bunch of peace and quiet to spare. A... more
