Angkor Village Hotel, Siem Reap: A Beautiful Oasis

In Siem Reap, Cambodia, I couldn't help but think of my stay at Angkor Village Hotel. The hotel is located on Street 26, Wat Bo Road, in a prime location just a few minutes' walk from the city center and Pub Street. It's very convenient to walk from the hotel to go shopping at the market or experience Siem Reap's nightlife.

Angkor Village Hotel is truly a hotel that embraces nature, with lush greenery and tropical design that makes you feel incredibly relaxed. The hotel is decorated in a traditional Khmer style, with every detail thoughtfully considered. Although the service can be a bit slow at times, the staff's warm and friendly demeanor more than makes up for it. The front desk staff always greet you with a smile, making you feel right at home. The room layout is well-designed, and my room had sliding doors that opened directly to a view of the garden and pond, a picturesque scene.

The room was spacious and clean, with plenty of space, comfortable bedding, and a medium firmness that always ensured a good night's sleep. The room was also well-equipped, with a private bathroom, air conditioning, minibar, and free Wi-Fi. Although the internet speed was a bit slow, it was definitely sufficient for basic needs. Every morning, I could sit on the balcony, enjoy a cup of hot tea, and watch the sunlight dance on the fish in the pond, a true delight.

The hotel has a Khmer restaurant located in a beautiful lake. The restaurant not only offers delicious Khmer dishes but also fresh breakfast options, with a wide range of Asian and Western cuisine. Dining here every day, watching the koi fish swim in the pond, was a mental relaxation. The hotel's pool area is also a great place to visit, clean and tranquil, perfect for swimming or lounging by the pool with a book.

Speaking of the surroundings, Siem Reap is a tourist destination with many attractions and restaurants worth visiting. Places like Temple Skylounge Pubstreet, Western Tribes Bar, and Embassy Restaurant are within walking distance. You can enjoy local cuisine and a wonderful evening at these places. Additionally, Angkor Wat is a must-visit, and it's very convenient to get there from the hotel.

Of course, no place is perfect. Angkor Village Hotel has a lot of plants and ponds around, so there are quite a few mosquitoes, and you need to be especially careful when doing outdoor activities at night. The room sometimes had a bit of a damp smell, especially after turning on the air conditioning, which might not be friendly to people with respiratory issues. I hope the hotel can improve in this regard.

Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience at Angkor Village Hotel, the environment was so beautiful that it felt like being in a fairy tale. If you're traveling to Siem Reap, consider this hotel, and I'm sure you'll fall in love with its tranquility and beauty. 🌟
