“Great staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 weeks ago via mobile

Really pondered about 3 or 4 stars for this place. The staff were unequivocally excellent. Couldn't do enough to help, booked us tours and helped us with travelling problems for future planning. I'm not a massive tipper but I did leave them a nice envelope. When we arrived we were told we would be moved mid way through our stay... More

It is actuall not close the the pier where we were dropped off but there are tuk tuk drivers a plenty to take you there and you can walk to the town centre easily but not with luggage unless you are young and fit. The staff are just lovely. Breakfast... More

“Could be great, but wasn't”

We booked into here as the reviews and pictures made it sound ideal for a short stay in Battambang. We arrived at the Post Office from our transfer with Cambodian Post and the waiting for us was the Sanctuary arranged tuk-tuks. Further out of town than we realised wasn’t too much of an issue as we we looking forward to... More

“Great service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 31, 2016 via mobile

The staff was absolutely amazing. Very friendly and always trying to help. They really think of everything. Our room was quite big, and had all amenities we expected for the price we paid. At some points some maintenance is required, but there were no real problems. It would be nice to have a mosquito net in the room. Now we... More

The room was beautiful, but the AC didnt work well, and cooling down the big room was a challenge. the mosquito net was shredded, we had to plug it with our plastic bags (yes, lots of mosquitos). In the bathroom there were stains on the... More

The room: it's ok, nothing exceptional. Bed sheet not clean on the first night, we asked to have it changed. We did not use the bathtube, impossible to open the litter and rince it. There is automatic super yellow light in the shower and toilet room, which is upsetting especially when you woke up in the middle of the night!!... More

“Fabulous choice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 19, 2016

Lovely to have you own little hut. Really comfortable bed and very clean. Breakfast is OK, not excellent. Lovely pool, staff were lovely, good location, 1 km from city centre and given free bikes to use. Much better not to stay right in the centre of the city. More of a retreat than a hotel.
