This was already the second stay in the Hotel and I will be back in June
Pros:

Staying at Raffles Hotel Le Royal is far more than just a luxury hotel visit; it is a profound encounter with Cambodian history. The architectural patience and heritage of the house are beautifully preserved.A special praise must be shared for Restaurant Le Phnom, which offers an exceptional and deeply impressive atmosphere. My highest appreciation goes to IM SREYDY (Dy Smille) for the outstanding service and attention to detail. Furthermore, a heartfelt thank you to Fiona Wang for her exceptional hospitality and the insightful, personal tour through the iconic Jacqueline Kennedy Suite. This house truly finds the deep, authentic voice it deserves. I am already filled with great anticipation for my next return !

One of the most beautiful hotels you will ever stay in. The French colonial architecture, the Elephant Bar, the level of
Pros:

Everything. The colonial building, the quality facilities, the elephant bar, and the incredible service from staff.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing I disliked. Rooms were on the small side but we had an extra bed for kid so that was probably why it felt a bit tight.

Raffles Hotel Le Royal Phnom Penh is one of the Best if not the Best 5 Star Hotel I’ve ever had the extreme pleasure of staying at in my life! Sharon and Fiona were exceptional as Hotel Managers!!!

The Best Experience!
Pros:

We had such a wonderful experience in most amazing hotel. The ambience and the decor of the hotel and restaurant was sensational. Our waitress for the evening, Pisey, went out of her way to make us feel special and welcome as did the other staff in their allocated roles. We will definitely be coming back upon our next visit - so until then please keep our seats warm and we look forward to seeing you again - Ian Davies

Beautiful hotel - our second visit and we will be back
Pros:

A beautiful hotel with a wonderful ambience. You can feel the stress leaving your body as you walk into the lobby! The Elephant Bar is a gem. And the staff are professional and very helpful.

Cons:

There is practically no storage space for clothing in the room, nor for toiletries in the bathroom. It seems they've sacrificed functionality for aesthetics. But that left us with belongings strewn all over the place, and the rooms are on the small side. The old traditional-type room keys (actual keys!) are a nice touch - but sometimes the fact that we only had one was quite inconvenient. These are small things but improving them would add a lot to an already great hotel.

Pros:

Beautiful old style hotel, really comfortable room and incredibly peaceful. Lovely staff, great bar and amazing breakfast. Historic feel and really amazing overall.

Cons:

I docked the hotel a point because I think the butler service (as it's called) is basically not that at all and is more like a concierge. Also I think it was just not that well done i.e. car I booked for onward travel was a public taxi but the one they arranged was old and battered car and actually broke down on way to destination, also when I sent them a Whatsapp one evening, they didn't even respond until next day. Ultimately it didn't really bother me but I thought better to give them feedback on this part of the service as if anything I would have rather they not mentioned or offered it at all as it actually took away from my overall experience where everything else was pretty perfect.

Raffles Hotel Cambodia - The Best!
Pros:

By far the very best venue to reside while in Phnom Penh. I've stayed at Raffles many times and the key point of differentiatuon is the service. Any issues that may occur "very infrequent" are resolved with prompt attention. Food is excellent and the Elephant bar is second to none.

This is home while away from home. As an expat who shuffles throughout Asia I do appreciate a soft bed, clean room, good food, nice pool, and great service.

Beautiful hotel, great food, solid gym, and staff that actually make you feel welcome
Pros:

It just feels good from the moment you walk in. The place is beautiful — the kind of hotel where you actually want to hang around instead of just sleeping there. Staff were warm and welcoming without being over the top about it.
Breakfast was good, plenty of options, nothing disappointing. The gym is solid and well-equipped — not an excuse for a gym like some hotels pull off. The whole vibe is just relaxed and easy, great place to properly switch off and recharge.
Would definitely come back.

Cons:

Nothing
