4-Star Hotels in Phnom Penh

The location was strategic, room was clean and just enough. The breakfast was good, one thing downside is the view of my room are not ok. And during heavy rain pour, it clearly can hear the rain drop on metal sheet roofing.

My boyfriend and I have traveled extensively across Southeast Asia, but this hotel is hands-down one of the best we’ve ever stayed at. The property itself is absolutely magnificent, and we spent hours enjoying the breathtaking rooftop pool. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the phenomenal staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We have to give a massive shout-out to Sros, who worked in the downstairs lobby. Every single day when we returned, he greeted us with such genuine warmth. He always took the time to ask about our day and chat with us—it honestly made our whole trip feel so personal and special. We also need to praise Chef Rethy, who made the absolute best omelettes my boyfriend has ever had in his life! We wish we could mention every single staff member by name because the entire team was fantastic. We cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. We will 100% be staying here again on our next trip to Phnom Penh!

Hotel KVL is a solid city base in Phnom Penh with a good location and views over the Mekong River. It’s close to the main bar area and a weekend street market, but that also means the road in front is closed from around 4:30 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, so it’s worth checking how that might affect your arrival or departure. Make sure you get the exact room type you booked, as there can be discrepancies, and note that the water pressure is on the weaker side, though everything else in the room works well. Breakfast is decent with enough variety, and overall the hotel offers a nice urban contrast to the resort feel of the Park Hyatt in Siem Reap.

Location: at center of Phnom Penh, easily reach by grab. Room: neat and clean, size wise just ok, I get a nice view of Mekong river. Breakfast: variety not much but just ok you can request staff for additional egg menu. Staff: really friendly and greet you everytime. Shoutout to the breakfast staff who check with you everytime. Improve: although the towel is clean but it looks old and some have light yellowish stain which believes unable to wash out. It visible to naked eye. Which really unpleasant.

A magnificent hotel! Everything was perfect! Superb location and wonderfully attentive service. We requested an early check-in the day before, and the esteemed Mr. Sovanvitou EA kindly replied that he would assist us if the hotel's availability allowed. The hotel is very modern, design-forward, and functional. Everything is catered for guests, and everything works and adjusts perfectly: the air conditioning, the water, and there's even a place to dry clothes. The pillows, mattress, and duvet are perfect, making for a very comfortable stay. The cleanliness is impeccable. Our flight was canceled, so we checked out and were sitting in the lobby booking new flight tickets. The hotel staff asked if we needed any help, brought us water, and said we could use the shower for free if needed, even though we hadn't asked for anything. The staff repeatedly offered their help and care, which was truly wonderful.

Our originally booked room would have been on the 9th floor, right below the pool and bar. We requested a different one. It wasn't the same category, but it was okay. The bed was a bit too soft and the pillows too thick. You can't please everyone, I guess. The bathroom was very small, but the shower had good water pressure and was hot. The breakfast area/cafe was far too small for so many guests, and it was too hot to sit outside. Breakfast was mediocre but sufficient. The location was superb. Very quiet on a side street, yet right in the heart of things. However, we had the bad luck of construction happening at the temple across the street. You should avoid that side of the hotel. The rooftop pool area is nice. The view over the city and the skyline, however, is sensational. Overall, the stay was good. We would gladly come back.

Perfectly sufficient for a two-day stay. The room was great with a magnificent view. The swimming pool was excellent for swimming, I'd say it was easily 25m long. The fitness studio was outstanding for a hotel. So, if you want to get some exercise, I can say the facilities are perfect. Breakfast can be ordered via QR code for the next day, time-slot wise. It's generally okay, but of course, not comparable to a buffet, it's just one plate. The only thing that was a bit annoying, but not necessarily a problem for me, was that the key card had to be reactivated every day. I don't know if that's always the case, but I don't think so. The surrounding area has many small restaurants and shops (Chinese).

The hotel staff was very friendly and so helpful. They offer us free upgrade to suite room. The room was clean and neat with big space. We will return ❤️

This is a beautiful hotel where I had the pleasure of staying for 5 days in August 2026. The room is large and clean, and even if some might find the style a bit old-fashioned, I think it has its charm. The rooftop pool is superb. Breakfast is very good, and the buffet is plentiful. The staff are super friendly and professional, always smiling. The balcony is small but charming. The air conditioning is good and powerful. The bed is super comfortable, and it's sometimes hard to get up because it's so cozy! The only minor downsides are that there are sometimes odors coming from the bathroom, and the hot water is often lukewarm, as it seems to be everywhere in Cambodia.

Thank you for having us, staff members are very friendly and easy to communicate due to we have motor rental. All arrangements went smooth, thank you for the cambodian experience.
