The hotel was recommended by another for stay and hence we did not bother to look up the reviews online. As soon as we entered we were enveloped by the damp smell of a room kept closed for a long period of time. the room was OKAY. we were so awed by our hotel at Siam Reap, that the Holiday Villa hotel at Phnom Phen was such a let down. Typical of a hotel in the CBD, the hotel lacked class and cleanliness. the hotel staff were not really friendly either. The breakfast spread was poor. If i had a choice to stay at a hotel in phnom phen again, i would never choose Holiday Villa neither would I recommend anyone to stay there.

We stayed here for a few nights on the way to Siem Reap. Whilst the hotel itself is acceptable, we didn't feel particularly at home here. We went to the lobby to have a coffee and despite being a couple were 'welcomed' by two scantily clad ladies who worked in the bar area. whilst they didn't proposition us as such we were encouraged to sit in an area which we noticed could be curtained...a bit odd...and also considering Cambodia seemed to be a rather modest country their short skirts and low cut tops did raise a few suspicions...very odd.

The area itself is not particularly friendly either and the walk to various tourist sites is not pleasant and you are hassled constantly right from leaving the hotel. On the way back from Siem Reap we stayed in the backpacker district and felt much safer. The accommodation was no worse either.

Nice enough rooms, Nasty Food, Very Odd Atmosphere.

First off all i would like to say thank you to all the staff of Holiday Villa Phnom penh.. they are so kind and friendly persons , they welcoming their guess. anyways i was and phnom Penh last few months and i stay at Holiday Villa Phnom Penh they has a very good location which is only 15minutes away from Phnom Penh Int’l Airport, 7 minutes from the Riverside, 10 minutes from the Royal Palace, 2 minutes from the Central Market. the hotel has 74 rooms.
