What a wonderful place and in a really nice area. We stayed for 2 nights at this charming place , we had a room on the 2nd floor and we wished we would have booked a pool room. The room was wonderfully cool and having screens on the windows meant we could have windows open a fan blowing and no... more

I spent 5 nights at the Pavilion in March on my business trip in Phnom Penh. Booking was a bit interesting, as all confirmations were done through a plain email. The hotel management was quick and responsive to my inquiries. I booked a standard double bed room, which was quite new when the time I stayed, and was in a... more

This place is great. Its a stone's throw from the river and the royal palace, and is a real oasis. We would recommend it 100%... The gardens are beautiful - and very well looked after. They are set around the main pool, but we had paid a little more and got one of the rooms with a private pool. The... more

We stayed at the Pavilion for 3 nights in late May. We chose a private pool room, as this is an affordable luxury at The Pavilion. We found the staff and management to be extremely helpful. In fact the bent over backwards to accommodate us - and were so friendly. The pool room is small, and the bed was incredibly... more

We have imported the spring mattresses from Thailand, but I have indeed chosen the hardest, as I do not like the beds in which one can sink inside soft foam mattresses. Usually people like them....

We stayed at The Pavilion on the 10th to 12th May and it was excellent. It was way beyond what we had expected and I was so glad that I did not disappoint my friends by booking rooms at this exquisite property. Its heaven on earth and I so wish we could have stayed longer. And yes, the property does... more

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. The room that we were allocated was a twin room. The room itself was very basic and rustic but elegantly decorated. However it does provide the following: Safety deposit, TV & mini-fridge. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom is clean and tidy. The check in was quick and easy. Breakfast is... more

Recently returned from a trip to cambodia - spent 2 nights at the pavillion - and we were not disappointed. The hotel grounds are superb, this place really is an oasis. As soon as you pass through the door into the garden the dusty street outside seems a million miles away. The pool area is lovely - the pool is... more

Lovely and peaceful hotel with a lovely athmosphere. Very popular so make a reservation as early as you can. Me and my wife made reservation for 4 nights by e-mail 1 week before arrival and we had to change our room twice during our stay. Changing rooms was smooth though and the staff very helpful and polite. We stayed in... more

What we found to be great about the Pavilion: +The grounds are beautiful & well decorated. +The beds are very clean, comfortable, large (my fiance is 6 feet, 6 inches tall, and fit on the bed pretty well). +There's a little restaurant where you can order snacks or... more

The name of the restaurant is "Friends" or Mith Samlah Friends. Excellent indeed. I can also highly recommend this organization with which I have personally collaborated when I was still working in an NGO.
