Our stay in this city retreat was just that. Great location and walking distance to restaurants and boutiques. We were in room 208 and we just loved the size of the room, patio, bathroom and the fabulous breakfast each morning of our stay. The staff were helpful, friendly and very customer service friendly.

We really enjoyed our stay here and whilst the facilities and amenities were excellent the staff bizarrely were a little over attentive for our liking. Whilst they were courteous, some were very over keen to engage when we were just trying to enjoy the tranquility of the hotel. We appreciate it is a careful balance, but overall we felt that a better balance should be made. That all said we were very pleased with our stay which was unfortunately just as the COVID-19 concerns were peaking in the region,so everyone was a little tense anyway.

My husband and I stayed here one year ago and had a wonderful time. In fact, it was so amazing that we promised each other to return ......and we did!!! We were not disappointed and as with our prior stay, the cost is quite economical. We rented one of the large rooms on the ground floor with semi-private lanai and pool access. Our room was wonderful - spacious and clean with a huge bathroom - shower and large tub, separate toilet and nice amenities (shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion). The rooms are air-conditioned and have a mini-fridge and hot water pot. The beds are comfy and the pillows are big and fluffy. They supply tea, coffee and snacks in the evening. Complimentary breakfast at the restaurant each day was impressive and delicious - a buffet of fruits, yogurt, juices, breads, cereals, an omlette station, asian breakfast options and you can also order from the menu with many option including vegetarian dishes, poached eggs, and eggs benedict! We also had dinner at the restaurant and it was perfect. The onsite spa is lovely - our stay included a free one-hour massage for both of us. They also have a daily happy our at the upstairs terrace and specials on food and drink at the pool. Above all, the staff is absolutely wonderful and sincerely dedicated to making your stay pleasant and memorable. They will arrange transportation, tours, laundry, etc. They even spray you with mosquito spay if you ask! I was sad when our week-long stay ended and will look forward to spending time here again! Many thanks to Annie and the rest of the staff for spoiling us!…

Coming to Cambodia for a vacation we decided to choose the Golden Temple Retreat based on previous reviews and we were not disappointed (which is an understatement)... this hotel was amazing down to it’s last detail! Prior to arrival we were in constant contact with the hotel organising spa treatments and tours of the temples etc, they responded quickly and it only heightened our excitement to stay here. We were picked up expeditiously from the airport and greeted with cold water and cold towels (which are such a great idea!!), we then we welcomed inside the hotel with cold iced tea, sticky rice and fruit. All the staff were amazing bringing drinks to the pool (which was just an amazing clear and refreshing pool that you actually want to sit around) and asking if there was anything that we needed. The service in this place was just amazing, you definitely would never see this level of service at hotels in Australia! I know that there is a downturn at the moment in travel, but the staff were just amazing, I was eager to learn the language and they took the time to teach me, which they didn’t have to, and this was just great - special thanks go to Southea and Huor for there help here ☺️. The spa is also incredible and very affordable, so definitely take the time to enjoy a relaxing massage if you can! I could go on about really how great this place is - but why not be surprised and check it out for yourself!!! Thanks again Golden Temple Retreat! We hope to be back next year for sure!!!!!…

We had a lovely stay at this hotel for 4 nights. The manager Mr Sim is great and remembers everyone’s name . Attention to detail is good and all staff in every area of hotel really attentive. A special mention must go to little Emily who collected us from the airport with a cheery smile and nice cold towel . Hotel near enough to pub street ( about 10 min walk ) without all the noise Would definitely stay here again. Thank you ‘golden retreat’a lovely way to begin our holiday

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Golden Temple Retreat and HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in Siem Reap. From the moment I was picked up at the airport by a private car (and served a fresh coconut during the drive to the hotel), I felt completely pampered. The hotel itself, including my room, was absolutely gorgeous, but the most amazing part of my stay was the service. I was greeted by staff members with a warm smile every time I returned to the hotel or walked into the lobby, and felt that staff was constantly bending over backwards to make my stay as wonderful as possible. The pool was amazing and I loved going for a swim and laying in one of the pool loungers to read a book every afternoon after getting back from my temple tour. The attention to detail in my room and every part of the hotel was incredible. I hope to one day come back to Siem Reap, and a large part of the reason I want to come back is to stay at Golden Temple Retreat again! Thank you all so much! …

What a fabulous hotel! All the reviews are right- you will not be disappointed staying at this hotel. From the moment we arrived to the taxi leaving we were looked after professionally with a touch of style. Service levels are of good 5 star middle east hotels, of which we have stayed at a few. Dont be concerned about the approach to the hotel which is up a side street. The hotel is an oasis of service and style. Rooms and decor are modern with excellent shower, bath and amenities. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Breakfast is first class buffet with cook to order eggs. What made this hotel special were the little touches - the greetings, the room service and the cold towels each time you return . Great value for money too and easy walking distance to the nearby night market and famous “Pub Street”. Only slight downside is if you are a sun worshiper, due to the design of the hotel, only one small corner of the pool area gets direct sunlight. Otherwise one cannot fault the establishment. Wonderful place to stay while visiting Siem Reap. …
