Really sad not to be able to experience the rumoured hospitality and food here, but still closed as at 31 March and were informed by pj clad guard at the front gate would not open for another week....

Dated 2nd March 2013. I would strongly advise anyone currently booked at, or thinking of booking this hotel to check the current situation at the hotel first. At the moment, under tragic circustances, the hotel seems to be abandoned of most staff and a hence service. We had to move out and find ourselves alternative accommodation. Please read on. We...

Compared to most places in Sinville, this place is quite pleasant. The building, rooms and surrounds feel spacious and airy. The service was very slow, it seemed to take a long time to get hold of someone to check in or get my room key etc. Food was pretty decent but they got some minor details quite wrong - eg... More

After spending 10 days in Seam Reap, Phnom Penh and Kep, arriving to Sihanoukville and Papillon d'Or was coming back to Western civilisation... which I hated first. But our hosts were so nice that it felt more like being in a very nice B&B (the hotel is a former government building, which has been very little tranformed and therefore gives... More

The Le Papillon is a wonderful building and we enjoyed the location even though it might not be to everyone's liking. The ambiance is non existent and I am surprised that another review mentioned the hosts name as they did not speak to us unless it was to pay money. They are so unhappy and preoccupied that we felt like... More

The hotel Le Papillon D'or aspires to the epithet boutique.

Absolutely loved this place, was just perfect. Was great value for money we got the deluxe suite. There was only one other couple there during our stay, so for us was perfect. Was so private, away for the backpacker tourist area, but only short tuk tuk ride. Is about 5-10 min walk to victory beach, which had few little beach... More

If you are not on a budget and wishing to have a pleasant stay at Sihanoukville I would highly recommend this charming place run by couple from Belgium. I had wonderful stay for 2 nights and willing to come back. This is definitely a nice place, from the beginnig when you enter you have a feeling like visiting old friends... More

We stayed in le papillon during the cambodia low season. So we were almost the only guests in the hotel. But that didn't matter anything to the staff and owner, restuarant and bar were open and the food and drinks where deliscious. Andries you have a beatiful , quiet and perfect place to stay a few nights.
