Got there in the end. I would stay again.
Pros:

The location is very good, the staff are all very nice & very helpful they are all young students sometimes the language barrier was a bit difficult when i was trying to explain my problems, regarding the rooms i was told wen i arrived i had been upgraded to a bigger better room with a balcony that sounded wonderful but i soon found out it was in another building there is 3 different buildings here my room was too far away & up 2 big flight of steep steps the room was lovely but i also had what seemed like local kids running about from the pool making the steps very wet, i asked to see the room i booked i found this to be in the main building on the ground floor, it had two beds which wasnt what i actually booked, so it made the room very small but it was fine i liked it. But after 3 nights out of my 7 i was asked to move to another room building number 3 something to do with water pipes underground i was disappointed to be moved & found communication quite difficult the room i was moved to was massive & had a bath lovely i thought but no hot water infact only a dribble of cold water & above a kitchen so very noisy at 5am so i was moved once again to a lovely room right next to the pool where i was very happy i had everything i needed lots of clean towels, hot water. I had an enjoyable last 3 nights there.
Also the food there was very good.

Cons:

All the moving about & the frustration of not knowing why at first i was been moved, although i do appreciate the students are doing their very best with speaking English & to help anyway they can.

Pros:

I really like the environment, the location, and the design.

Cons:

The room design looks good, but the tiles have some stains, likely due to age and wear. A bit of extra maintenance could help make the room feel fresher.

Perfect for a long or short stay.
Pros:

Wonderful, quiet and clean accommodation. Lovely individual rooms with all the amenities needed. Ideally located, it has very good WiFi and is impeccably clean. A real highlight is the first-rate, very professional and friendly staff. They made my time in Siem Reap feel like I was home.

Cons:

Nothing.

Pros:

Villa Wat Damnak is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are super chic, the pool is clean, and the food is delicious. It’s definitely a great option if you’re staying in Seam Reap to explore the beautiful temples of Angkor Wat,

Bon rapport qualité prix pour un hôtel+piscine à Siem Reap !
Pros:

L’hôtel est très bien situé pas loin du Old Market. Malgré quelques petits problèmes de climatisation et d’eau, je salue les efforts du personnel pour solutionner rapidement. Un grand bravo à eux et pour cela je reviendrai à Wat Damnak. La piscine est un atout avec cette grosse chaleur d’Avril 2026

Perfect location 👍🏾 Amazing friendly staff 🥰
Pros:

Ich habe ursprünglich nur für 2 Nächte als Überbrückung gebucht und bin dann für 2 Wochen geblieben! Und dies ist zu 100% dem Personal zu verdanken. Ich fühlte mich wie Zuhause!
