The Villa is run by Australians with their heart at the right place. They promote sustainable tourism and I applaud that. The young staff is very friendly and helpfull. Some od the trips they organize benefit the people living there and part of the profit of the hotel goes to developing the region as well.
When we arrived our room was not avaiable and we were given the bungalow instead, the ' best' room, but quite dark and humid and full of musquitos without a musquito net... (and this is still a malaria environment). Fortunately the staff killed them all with sprays when we mentioned it. The next day we moved to a smaller and cheaper room in the main building, that was also much lighter and fresher and had a musquito net. Perfect!
The garden is very nice (but again a bit humid and with musquitos in the evening), with benches and pillows to lounge in. The pillows could use a good washing though.

The restaurant is quite good, we enjoyed eating there even though we did not join in the regular aussi BBQ.

The Villa Siem Reap is one of the few hotels that lives up to the hype created by its website—and in our case, even surpassed it. From the moment we checked in, we were charmed by the cozy and laid-back vibe of the place, not to mention the purple-painted walls all around. Front desk staff was always smiling and spoke good English. Our twin room was just one flight up the stairs and also carried the same thematic purple color (trivia: my companion told me the color purple can symbolize royalty and spiritual fulfillment), giving the place a nice touch highlighted by the odd orchid petal left on the bed spread for effect. A refreshing welcome drink soon followed which garnered some extra points. The bathroom boasted stone tiles which I feel are always better to step on than ceramic tiles when wet, not to mention prettier to look at too. Hot water was plenty, although shower pressure could have been a tad stronger. On the tech-side, WiFi never let us down. The restaurant was a cool and casual set-up with a decent enough selection from its menu offering Khmer, Asian and Western favorites (the beef with kroeung and fettucine alfredo were superb!). Cooking time was reasonable at around 15 minutes; only downside here were the annoying mosquitoes who left their mark on our arms and legs while we waited, although they did fumigate the area the following day. The Villa even had its own in-house spa, although we didn’t have the luxury of time to try it out. Location-wise, The Villa was extremely accessible with the Angkor Night Market literally around the corner and a main road offering a plethora of restaurants, bars and ATMs to choose from. At USD35/night (breakfast not included), we found it to be very competitively priced for what you get—a clean, cozy, purple gem of a hotel with good branding inside and out.

Originally planned only 5 nights here but were so impressed with Siem Reap and so happy with our room that we stayed an extra night.
The Villa is lovely. Room was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. There were nice touches too, lotus petals scattered on the bed and floor, a daily news sheet pushed under the door.
The staff were fantastic. Couldn't be better and all done with a lovely Cambodian smile. Well done.
The only thing that disappointed us was the cost and poor choice available for breakfast. We only had it once and thereafter had much better experiences in town, just minutes stroll away. The massage and driver costs we also found comparatively expensive.
So in summary, a great place to stay, you will love the room, the location and the staff. But for everything else buy outside.

The Villa was our favourite stay in Laos and Cambodia. Everything was wonderful from the brilliant staff to our lovely room. We booked the 'Lots of Luxury Pacakge' as a treat and it was worth every penny. Our tuk tuk driver Lin was just great, bit like having your own personal guardian angel really. Although really close to the night market, it was really quiet and peaceful and spent a lot of time lounging on the sofas in the garden reading and drinking wonderful cocktails. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice and enough to fill the largest of appetities, had several meals in resteraunt which were equally as good. Just sad to miss the Aussie barbque but couldn't manage it after our picnic at Sunset Ankor Wat. Thanks guys for a lovely stay, you made our trip xx
