Description
Next door to the Sunshine Hotel, the Chinese-style Indochine is very clean and well-kept, but rather featureless. Some of the rooms are huge -- the triple on the ground floor is massive. Indochine has a second branch (see Indochine 2 Hotel) which is the better,(and newer, of the two.

Clean, Great Location and Pric -

) Stayed here 8/2007
Stayed in a huge spotless double with 2 queen beds a large bathroom and a view of the river. Well worth the extra $7 compared to the interior windowless singles.
The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. They took care of laundry, arranged airline tickets to Siem Reap (same price as I found on the internet)and arranged a taxi to airport for a 4AM pick up(price fixed at $7).
There is no elevator - if that is important to you.
bring earplugs -

The room is small and sparse but clean. The refrigerator in the room was great for cold drinks. The air conditioning was amazing (If fact it was so strong that we had to turn it off because we got cold). The hotel staff spoke good English. The laundry service was amazing; they got all of the dirt stains out of all of our clothing. The breakfast at their restaurant was great. Now for the not so great stuff. There is no elevator, walking up and down 5 flights of stairs after a day of lots of walking is not fun. The walls are extremely, extremely thin. I had to ask someone in the room two doors down from me to turn down his TV (that he had at normal volume). The power went out 5 times in the 3 days we were there, but it came back on after a few minutes every time. Don’t use their taxi service, its overpriced. We paid $15 a night for a queen size bed and $7 for airport pick-up. I’d stay there again, but I’d bring earplugs with me next time.

Indochine 2 Hotel
28-30 Street 130, Phnom Penh
Located just off the river on Street 130, this spotless hotel is a great choice, offering big, air-con rooms with private bathroom. It's a bit of a tour-group haven though, so it can sometimes be hard to get service during mass check-ins and... more
California 2 Guesthouse
317 Sisowath Quay, Phnom Penh
This very well-located guesthouse has a range of rooms, though watch your head as you climb the stairs. The place feels a little pokey but you could do far worse and this is a popular option with return visitors. California 2 is also well-known as a great source of information for travelling around... more
Lyon D'Or
#12, Street 110, Phnom Penh
Located just around the corner off Sisowath Quay on Street 110, this mid-sized hotel has good and very clean rooms, all with private bathroom, cable TV and air-con.

Cozyna Hotel
1A Sisowath Quay
Wedged between the Amanjaya and the Bougainvillier, the Cozyna has functional rooms with some fine river views. Given rates are considerably lower than Cozyna's neighbours, you could do far worse than choosing a room here. Bring earplugs as noise can be a problem. The cheapest rooms here have no... more

This hotel and restaurant expanded in February 2006 to include newly renovated rooms in a building across the street.

The River-Star Hotel
185 Sisowath Quay - corner of Street 118, Phnom Penh
The River-Star has a mix of larger rooms with beautiful views of the river and smaller rooms with no windows. Their promotional brochure brags that even the bathrooms have river views but don't let that fool you -- it appears that in only one bathroom does your shower have a large window. This... more
Angkor International Hotel
#38-50 Street 148, Phnom Penh
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. The neighbourhood, as well as the hotel itself, aren't much to look at, but the new lobby has a... more
