This is a very good guesthouse. I stayed 6 days and room, 203, was adequate to my needs, clean, with a good sized, modern bathroom, comfortable bed and with other extra amenities I appreciated like a closet and fridge.The staff was always very helpful. Because of the area it can be quite noisy. For me the location didn't work, but... More

Tucked between a bustling, redolent market and the riverside. The $16 rooms are at first glance shockingly small and barren, but the ascetic minimalism is appreciated when you notice just how clean the beds and bathrooms are. Conversely, the $30 + rooms are massive and have balconies. The young Cambodian staff are effervescent, pugnacious, and helpful, making for good fun... More

Solid. Clean newish rooms, good location, reasonable price. Could add breakfast and more service to take it to the next level. Recommend.

My friends and I stayed in the triple AC room after a long bus ride from Don Det and it was great. The room had 3 double beds and plenty of space for all of our bags. Management even allowed my two other friends who did not have accommodation booked to stay in the room with us. So we had... More

Stayed here on 3 different days over the course of 3 weeks, each time another double room, each time it was fine. It is very clean, as is the bathroom, which is also quite big. Good location on the riverfront, and close to a market with nice streetfood. Wifi worked excellent in the rooms, (i was in room 7, 8... More

When we arrived we were greeted by a member of staff who took our bags to our room ( up 5 flights of stairs) and then we had to go back down to reception to sign in, seemed a bit unorganised as reception doubles as the bar but it was all sorted. Our room (number 8) is good sized has... More

Stayed here (or the equally nice backpackers arm across the road) for 3 nights all up and found it to be one of the best hotels ive stayed in on my travels so far. I had come from Vietnam where you pay at least double for dirtier rooms! I couldn't believe how clean the guesthouse was for the price they... More

You cannot beat the location of this place, it's almost right on the Riverside, and really easy to find and walk to and from the major tourist locations near the Riverside, even Wat Phnom. Gavin and his team are excellent hosts, warm and helpful. They can arrange tuk-tuks for the whole day to take you everywhere, including Choueng Ek, for... More

On our second visit we were in a different room, this room was a lot quiter and also the internet worked. I would recommend asking for a room not... More

Our room on the fourth floor of the Velkommen Guesthouse (not the Backpackers or the Inn), whilst modest in size and fairly simple, was really clean with a really large bathroom. Wifi was reliable in the room and around the Guesthouse. We found the staff to be really friendly and helpful, including providing a tourist map of Phnom Penh and... More
