The Angkor used to be a rundown old dump and that's still half true. When the new wing is full they still book people into rooms in the old one, which is a musty, cruddy mess with the same price tag. If they try to stick you here, head one block southeast and check out Cyclo Guesthouse for about the same price, or three blocks east to Indochine Hotel. The neighbourhood, near several markets, snooker halls, and videogame parlours (as well as a few of the most downtrodden-looking hostess bars in town) is quite seedy. And the hotel itself is incredibly tacky, with a chipped gold roof, though the new lobby has a fairly decent bar (with a really lousy pool table). The only reason to stay here would be for the new rooms, which are really a great deal for the price, with nice bedding, good amenities and bathrooms with tubs. The rooms vary a lot in size and comfort, so ask to see a couple before selecting one, and because of the fluctuations in occupancy you may be able to bargain down the price a bit. Another drawback is that there are seven floors and no elevators.

Nice place - 14th August, 2007
The staff are friendly and intelligent, very nice kids, the rooms are clean and acceptable, the location is great. One cannot ask for much more on a budget wanting to stay near the river. This place is hands down top notch for a backpacker. I really enjoyed talking to the staff, nice kids, the food was decent and the market is a skip away. I will stay here if I can be pried away from the beaches this December for a return to Phnom Penh.

spotless - 22nd July, 2007
The room was nice and clean but they have no elevator to go up and down even the building has 7 floors. The staffs were not really helpful therefore stayed there for 1 night only.

Rooms are okay - 23rd December, 2006
The staff are okay. It's one of a few old hotels whose staff wear uniforms. I was put off that when my friends and I were given rooms, they didn't offer to help carry our bags but when some Caucasians checked in, they offered to help. The food there's great even though slightly more expensive than the nearby food stalls. Would recommend the amok fish and shrimp curry. When we were eating outside, some kids came to beg for money from us. Even though my friend then bought some bread for them from a nearby stall, they later came back to beg again (occasionally u see them sniffing glue!).
