Stayed at Angkor Holiday Hotel for 3-nights during the Christmas holidays. Booked a few weeks in advanced and availed of their special 3-night promotion in a deluxe room with free airport transfers, laundry service, daily breakfast, one dinner, massage, bottle of wine, fruit basket and welcome drinks all for just $169.

The first thing guests notice as they enter the lobby are the Khmer-style furnishings and decors. This provides a relatively good ambiance, and adds a little charm to the otherwise mediocre interiors of the hotel. Check-in was straightforward. Our rooms were in the topmost floor and had its own balcony. Curiously enough, the hotel elevator terminates at the third floor and guests have to make their way to the 4th floor using the stairs.

As expected, our room had the free amenities as mentioned above. The room itself was very clean and had spacious beds (one queen bed plus one single bed in the room). The room came with standard amenities such as slippers, electronic safe, toiletries, a well-stocked mini-bar and TV with dozens of channels. There were also two bottles of mineral water provided daily for free.

The breakfast was of good variety. There was a buffet spread which featured Western and Asian dishes, including a Noodle Soup and Omelet station. Guests could choose to dine in the restaurant or in the pool-side. During the morning, they had a girl playing traditional Khmer music near the restaurant to entertain the dining guests.

The hotel is located in the center of Siem Reap town, around 10 to 15 minutes walk to the Old Market and Bar Street and one block away from the Royal Independence Gardens.

Service in the hotel was good. The staff were polite and knew basic English. The only problem we had was during check-out. They included two cans of beer in our bill even though we never took anything from the mini-bar. Fortunately, this was resolved quickly and without any hassle.

Overall, I would recommend this hotel. Angkor Holiday Hotel definitely provides exceptional value for its price point.

The rooms at the Angkor Holiday Hotel were immaculate. We had two rooms in our party and they were identical. We were in Superior Room/Triples and noticed that there was a fresh coat of paint on the walls (a very pleasant thing compared to a comparable hotel where we stayed last year in Siem Reap). The bathrooms were also very clean, and in general, the hotel was a very comfortable and pleasant place to be. The staff was helpful, and the breakfast presented a good variety of foods. We also had dinner there, with local and Western options that were all prepared well. It's about a 10 minute walk from the Central Market and Pub Street, not bad at all. There were always tuk tuks waiting outside to take us around.

When we arrived we were truly amazed. We received a welcome cocktail and had to wait five minutes for our room to be ready. The room was very spacious, clean and the minibar was well-stocked and cheap. The pool was great, never too busy and just the right size. Unfortunately, the pool bar was unstaffed for the three days we spent there. However, drinks were served upon request. At breakfast we were really spoiled for choice, the restaurant was also very nice for having dinner.

Staff were helpful and friendly.

I was really pleasantly surprised by this hotel. Rooms are a good size and clean, staff are friendly and efficient.

The breakfast buffet was fairly standard, the swimming pool was good. The hotel is very well-located, at the end of the boulevard that runs down into the main part of town. You can walk to the old market in about 15-20 minutes or tuk-tuk to it for $1.

There's a mini-market across the road, catering to western sweet tooths.

One of the best things about this hotel is that it's really cheap for what you get. We had two rooms at $US50 per night each, including breakfast.

No real complaints. They do seem to be trying to save electricity by having the corridors dimly lit and with no air conditioning in the corridors but these are vey minor issues.

All in all I'd thoroughly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again.
