Memoria Palace & Resort is an eco-tourism resort located in the foothills of the Cardamom Mountains of Pailin, Cambodia. The resort spans over 13 lush hectares and features 16 beautiful bungalows, 3 unique traditional style thatched eco-lodges, a hilltop saltwater swimming pool, open space restaurant & outdoor bar, and a large conference room. Memoria is a hidden gem with inviting appeal, magnificent views across the countryside, fresh clean air and an invigorating breeze coming off the mountains. Our location provides the perfect environment for a variety of retreats, peaceful relaxation, personal rejuvenation or adventurous outdoor activities. Overall Pailin is an ideal place to base yourself for sightseeing, cycling, hiking, trekking excursions and guided tours into the Cardamom Mountains, one of Southeast Asia's best preserved wilderness areas which hosts an abundance of unique species which are now endangered thoughout much of South East Asia.
I stayed in this hotel for one night during a cycling tour. The room was clean and comfortable. There was no telephone in the room (I wanted to call the front desk for a wakeup call). The television was not working. The property was somewhat run-down. The shower did provide consistent hot water. I did not get to explore the region as we got the hotel in the evening, ate dinner, went to bed, and then woke up to start pedaling to the next hotel. I can only base this review on the few hours I was there. If all you want is a clean place to sleep for a few hours this hotel is OK. If you are looking for something a little more luxurious with amenities this may not be for you. It must be a popular spot for cycling tours because in the few hours we were there three other tour groups pulled up to spend the night.…

As a regular visitor to Pailin my wife and I normally stay at the 'Bamboo' and are always very satisfied with the price, accommodation and an excellent restaurant. Unfortunately the Bamboo is closed for refurbishment and thus we're staying at the Memoria Palace It's a disappointment -'Rustic but very aged and in need of a facelift' - Check-in was a shambles. The room is OK except for the toilet is blocked and remains so following repairs, ditto with the lock for the room - Key wouldn't work and the repair was unsuccessful . The restaurant mediocre at best was a big disappointing - the breakfast (included in the price was unappetising, coffee luke work etc etc. We'll not be back!

We had such a lovely time at Memoria, If you are looking for a nature based retreat with friendly service, simple authentic Khmer food, spacious but simple rooms then this is the place! We are expats living in Cambodia so were able to visit when the resort was quiet (due to Covid-19). It felt like we had the whole place to ourselves, as though we had stumbled upon a forgotten paradise in the middle of a forest! We would love to come back again!

Stayed here as part of a cycle tour. The room was huge with a very big bed but unfortunately the mattress was super hard. Huge bathroom with only shower gel, so make sure you have shampoo etc. The pool was big but in need of some attention as it was run down. Food was ok in the evening but breakfast very limited. Staff do need a little more training and to be aware of how to treat guest luggage, but I guess it’s an area where people still have a lot to learn about tourism and guest expectations. The location is stunning, in the woods by a river with plenty of wildlife.

I don’t understand so many positive reviews for Memoria. It is hardly a resort - it’s completely run down and poorly managed. Staff were pleasant but were clearly untrained and unprofessional (drinking on the job!). Breakfast was cheap and cheerful. Unfortunately this is one of the nicer hotels in the area so not many other options. The only thing they have going to for the rustic location. Glad I was only there for one night.

We stayed one night as part of a cycling trip. The resort is nestled in the forest and beautiful, and our room was lovely - spacious and well appointed, if simple and a little bare. The pool was a distance from our room, and we didn't realize we had to get drinks at the main restaurant and there were no towels at the pool, but it was a nice pool. The service was very friendly, and food was good (we had dinner and breakfast there), although there wasn't a ton of variety. Because it was nestled in the wilderness, there were lots of frogs, lizards, centipedes, and other 'wildlife' around and slipping in and out of our room for visits. It's also a bit off the beaten path, so nothing else is walking distance if you want to explore the nearby town or eat elsewhere. A great spot for someone who wants to be in the wilderness and maybe spend a little more time, maybe not a great one night stay en route for somewhere else.…

I went there with my friend. After a very long day visiting Pailin and Prum Border, we came here to relax and had a very wonderful time. Thank for the amazing evening. Hope to come here again soon. All in all, love Pailin.

Stayed one night on our bike trip across Cambodia. Room was clean, hotel property was lovely, hot water inconsistent in shower. Water in pool looked dirty. Food was good as was the service. Beers were cold, mixed drinks were unimpressive. Wi-Fi was pretty good. TV was not connected to anything except a DVR.
