Did you know that this tourist magnet is home to some of the swankiest, most luxurious hotels on the face of the planet?
Siem Reap in Cambodia may be a popular destination packed with ancient sites, but the rapidly growing city offers more than just culture and history. Dotting its landscape are some of the world’s most luxurious hotels. Here is our pick of the most alluring havens close to the archaeological wonder of Angkor Wat, itself cloistered in magnificent greenery.
1. Sojourn Boutique Villas
A laid-back resort located on Siem Reap’s rural fringes. These are not luxury offerings, but will open your eyes to life close to the Khmer terra. Besides two terrace rooms above the lobby, all the accommodation here consists of stand-alone structures with spacious interiors that are minimally furnished. The property’s design may not be its biggest draw, but comfort and space are well provided under these homey roofs, with Wi-fi, flat screen TV and in some categories, outdoor showers.
2. Sala Lodges
Sala Lodges is a part rice field, part tropical garden estate housing a handsome collection of Cambodia’s most beautiful old houses brought here from the countryside. Entering these wooden heritage homes transports you back in time. The privilege of staying in one of these traditional houses is enhanced by the lovely furnishings added by the owners to add to the luxury scale.
3. Sofitel Angkor Phokeethra
