I stayed at this hotel three nights. I've no complaints about the staff, food, decor - you name it. It is a lovely hotel. But in the time I was there, I could see the area was going downhill. The road outside had been widened into a motorway. Lovely old trees have been chainsawed. The 'development' is some of the worst I've seen anywhere in the world. And, sad to say, it has ruined the area where the Sokha stands, which now has no shade or class. The atmosphere rubs off on this otherwise lovely hotel.

The hotel is clean and room is reasonable big. Did not receive the airport pick up punctually due to miscommunication in between. The lobby is quite comfortable to sit around with the nice smell.Being served with welcome drink and cold towels while waiting for checking in. The buffet breakfast has a reasonable choices. Great location within walking distance to pub street and night markets.Overall the stay is enjoyable although there are some hiccups for the airport pickup.

“Good location & Decent Hotel”

We stayed here in last week of March 2014. Hotel is conveniently located at intersection of Airport road & Sivatha Street. You can take evening walk from Hotel to nearby shopping area - night market or pub street. Alternatively Tuk-Tuk (bike pulled carriage) costs $2 one way. Angkor Vat is about 10minutes drive from the hotel. Rooms were a bit old architecture but clean and spacious. Staff - like in many south east asian countries - very helpful & polite. Other things - swimming pool, massage and SPA, boutique shop are standard. Hotel gave us a 15mins free massage voucher. Welcome freebie after long day spent in ruins! Breakfast has good spread of western and oriental food. Though I must say that better
menu is available in similar hotels in Bali, Malaysia etc. Check-in & Check-out were fast as well. In Siem Reap tipping is everywhere. Hotel bill comes with a dotted line for a tip! We were advised that $1 to $2 is given for hotel services, hotel staff, guards laundry etc. To sum up - I have nothing very special or nothing negative to report about the hotel. For Cambodia Siem Reap - it is a decent hotel to stay in. Lesson learnt about weather - Avoid going in March. Global weather changes made summer hot & humid - not expected in March.
After three hectic days in Saigon, the Sokha Angkor was a welcome relief and an oasis from the heat and the traffic.
The hotel oozes quality from the moment you walk into the vast lobby. The staff are impeccable, polite and all speak good English.
As a base for three days of touring the local countryside, I couldn't fault it. It was lovely to come back to everyday. The pool is wonderful and the outside bar area very relaxing.
An added bonus was the town centre location. Who needs another tuc tuc ride iff you don't need to?

Hotel very much, beautiful, stylish ... The rooms are spacious. Service is good, despite the fact that Cambodians are very slow. The hotel has Italian, Japanese, and very tasty pastries. Located in the center, very handy if you like to walk on foot. Spa in the hotel is wonderful. Prices are not very expensive. As a compliment, the hotel gives a foot massage to each client.
Borey Sarith was very kind to me. I was having trouble because I couldn't speak English to go to the next hotel, but they made a call for me and connected me. The hotel was also very comfortable and it became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.
