On my journey back packing I made a short trip through Cambodia, and Eighty8 had been recommended as the place to stay...the recommendations were not wrong!! This place has a welcoming atmosphere, a very comfortable bar / seating area, and they have some good food on offer at pretty reasonable prices. The pool is lovely, and a bonus considering how...

I stayed here when I travelling alone through Cambodia. Was a perfect place for me - met loads of people and the staff were great! (try the noodle soup, it rocks) Shared rooms meant it was ideal on a budget and I could grab a really reasonably priced meal here too. The location was good and I could always get... More

We stayed in a aircon room in 88 and we loved it here, lazy days by the pool, nice and spacious with pool tables and relaxing chairs to chill out on. Met some lovely people here and the night barman, Monty was a real character with a great impression of a scottish accent! The tours were a little on the... More

A really great place to meet people and to relax in between seeing the sights in and around Phnom Penh. There is a nice pool, a well stocked bar and good food. The owners Paul and Amanda really looked after me, as did the rest of the staff who are all Khmer. It's worth taking the time to get to... More

I stayed one night at Eight8 Backpackers and was glad to leave the next day. The place was utterly filthy. They took me to a dorm with 8 beds and the room was tiny. The bathroom was full of dirt from shoes and hair all over the floor. The same for the dorm itself. I asked if they ahd another... More

I was passing through Phnom Penh again before heading up to Laos – this place is fantastic for budget travellers. I planned to just stay 2 nights but ended up staying 4, was in no hurry to move on… I was with with one female friend so we opted for the all girls dorm, 6 beds. Plain but clean it... More
