10 Mejores Hoteles en Phnom Penh, Camboya (Reseña 2026) — Palacio Real, Pagoda de Plata, Tuol Sleng y el Mekong Ribereño

Raffles Hotel Le Royal has been standing on the corner of Monivong Boulevard and Street 92 in the Daun Penh quarter since 1929, designed by French architect Ernest Hebrard in a blend of French Colonial, Khmer motifs and Art Deco that still works today. The guest list reads like a 20th-century history book: Jackie Kennedy in 1967 (her room is now the Jacqueline Kennedy Suite), Charlie Chaplin, Andre Malraux, Somerset Maugham. The property survived the Khmer Rouge era and was restored by Raffles in 1997 with the original DNA intact — soaring ceilings, antique ceiling fans, claw-foot tubs, teak staircases, and an inner tropical garden so dense you forget you are downtown. 175 rooms and suites, two pools, the spa locals say is the best in Phnom Penh, and the legendary Elephant Bar where the Femme Fatale cocktail was invented for Jackie. Score 9.2/10 — built for couples and history-minded luxury travelers who want a real story to tell.

Rosewood Phnom Penh takes over the top 14 floors of Vattanac Capital Tower, a 188-metre dragon-coiled skyscraper that is the tallest building in Cambodia. It opened in late 2018, designed by TFP Farrells with a silhouette that nods to the Chinese figure 8 and the curve of a dragon, while the interiors by Hirsch Bedner Associates lean into Khmer silk, silverwork and carved-wood detailing against a contemporary art-deco frame. All 175 rooms and suites sit between floors 21 and 34, every window floor-to-ceiling glass aimed either at the confluence of the Mekong, Tonle Sap and Bassac rivers or the Daun Penh skyline. Entry-level Premier rooms run 50 sq m from around $330 a night. The headline is Sora, the floor-37 sky bar that juts roughly 4.5 metres off the tower like a dragon's tongue — 360-degree city views with cocktail in hand. Six signature restaurants, a spa rated among the city's best, and a 9.4/10 guest score make this Phnom Penh's top luxury address, no contest.

Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra is a 5-star, 201-room urban resort opened in 2011 under Accor's Sofitel banner, sitting on the Bassac River in the Tonle Bassac district — a 2-minute walk across the street from AEON Mall. The architecture pairs high-ceilinged French-colonial arches and crystal chandeliers with contemporary Khmer detailing, and the building houses four nationality-distinct restaurants in one place: La Coupole (French brasserie), Hachi (Japanese teppanyaki and sushi), Fu Lu Zu (Cantonese dim sum) and Do Forni (Italian). Outside you get two outdoor pools with a pool bar, tennis and squash courts, a full-floor gym, and the big So Spa that reviewers single out as the relaxation highlight. Rooms start around $195/night and the property pulls a 9.1/10 across Agoda and Booking — best for couples and families wanting a resort feel inside the city, plus business travelers who want quiet away from the busy old quarter.

Hyatt Regency Phnom Penh is the first Hyatt-branded hotel in Cambodia, opened in 2021 on Samdach Sothearos Road in the historic Daun Penh quarter — directly facing the National Museum and a five-minute walk to the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda. The 13-storey tower holds 247 rooms and suites dressed in modern art-deco — gold, emerald green, walnut-brown — with floor-to-ceiling windows looking onto temple roofs, palace spires, or the Tonle Sap river bend. The signature draw is Topaz, the top-floor rooftop bar with a 360-degree view of the old town and the river. Add an outdoor pool, a generously sized spa, a 24-hour gym, and three restaurants. Nightly rates start around US$150 and climb to roughly US$315 for the higher suites — solid value for a freshly opened five-star on this corner of the capital. Guest score: 8.9/10.

NagaWorld Hotel & Entertainment Complex is Cambodia's largest integrated resort, planted right on the Chaktomuk four-faced river in Tonle Bassac — the exact spot where the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers meet. Three towers (NagaWorld 1, Naga 2, and Naga Suites) connect via underground tunnels and hold a total of 1,617 rooms. Inside you get the country's biggest casino open 24 hours, 27 restaurants, bars and clubs covering Cantonese dim sum, Japanese sushi, Thai, Korean, Italian and international buffet, plus the late-night Darlin' Darlin' nightclub, a spa, gym, two outdoor pools, bowling, karaoke and the Naga Arena concert venue. The biggest convenience is the free airport shuttle running every 30 minutes — about 25 minutes from Phnom Penh International (PNH) to the lobby. Rooms start around $77/night and climb to $230+ for river-view suites. Guests give it 8.5/10 on Agoda and 8.4/10 on Booking.

Palace Gate Hotel & Resort by EHM is a 5-star boutique built into a 1900s French colonial villa that sits flush against the mustard-yellow back wall of the Royal Palace of Phnom Penh. The Erawan Hospitality Management group restored the historic building down to the Roman columns, fretwork timber balconies, handmade Khmer-pattern floor tiles, and original high ceilings, then added a contemporary Mealea restaurant serving French-Khmer food, a tropical garden courtyard with a boutique-sized pool tucked under palms, and a rooftop bar with eye-level views of the palace's gold stupa. The 55 rooms and suites start around 40-50 sqm, finished in teak and Khmer textiles, with rates from roughly US$110 a night for the entry category. Real guests score it 9.0 on Agoda and 8.9 on Booking — rare territory for a quiet, design-led boutique in an Asian capital. Our score: 9.0/10, best for couples, honeymooners, and travelers who pick architecture over chain branding.

Plantation Urban Resort & Spa sits a 200-metre walk behind the Royal Palace, open since 2011 in a cluster of 1930s French colonial villas restored by Khmer-French owners into an 84-room, 4-star boutique resort spread across three buildings around a tropical garden of roughly one acre. The headline feature is the 20-metre natural-stone pool sunk into palm fronds and ferns, which several reviewers compare to a Siem Reap resort rather than a capital-city hotel. There are two bars (the standout poolside Red Bar and a quieter lobby bar), a restaurant serving Khmer and French dishes, and a breakfast buffet widely cited as one of the best in Phnom Penh. From the gate it is a short walk to the National Museum and the riverside confluence; the airport (PNH) is about a 30-minute drive. Rates start near $70 a night — strong value for the setting. Score 9.0/10. Best for couples, small families, and mid-luxury travelers who want an old-town garden retreat.

Baitong Hotel & Resort sits in the heart of BKK1 (Boeung Keng Kang 1) — Phnom Penh's embassy-and-expat district packed with the city's best European restaurants. Baitong means green in Khmer and the hotel leans into it hard: two outdoor pools including the signature Forest Pool, ringed by trees tall enough that swimming feels like being in a jungle, plus a rooftop bar pouring sunset cocktails. The 156 rooms run roughly 35 sqm and up with a private balcony in almost every category. The breakfast buffet keeps showing up in reviews as punching above the room rate. Rates start around US$65 a night, you can walk to Street 278's cafe strip in minutes, and the Royal Palace sits about 2 km away. Real-guest score: 8.9/10 — pitched at couples and families who want a resort feel without leaving downtown.

The Plantation Urban Resort & Spa is an 84-room colonial boutique hidden inside a tropical garden in the heart of Daun Penh, Phnom Penh — barely 200 metres from the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda. Three cream-coloured French-colonial buildings wrap around a 20-metre natural stone pool, with the photogenic Red Pool Bar at one end, a full spa, and a curated boutique selling Khmer textiles and silver. Rooms blend dark wood, white walls, and ceiling fans with modern comforts; prices run from around US$60 a night for a Garden Room up to about US$160 for a suite with private balcony and jacuzzi. Guests on every review site call out the same things — the oasis feeling in the middle of the old city, warm staff, and a location you can actually walk from. Booking 9.3/10 and Agoda 8.8/10. Best for couples and culture-focused travellers who want to be near the real sights without sitting in traffic.

The Pavilion is a 36-room adults-only boutique hidden inside nearly century-old French colonial villas in the heart of Daun Penh, about a 4-minute walk from the Royal Palace. Step through the iron gate and the city disappears — a tropical garden of mango and frangipani trees, soft fountains, and 4 small pools scattered between the villas. Many rooms hide a plunge pool or private pool behind louvered shutters, and the cream-and-teak interiors layer Khmer textiles with Indochine antiques. Real guest reviews praise the staff who remember names by day two, the made-to-order breakfast served poolside, and a stillness that feels impossible four minutes from Cambodia's busiest royal address. Rates run from around US$54/night for a Deluxe to about US$137 for a private-pool suite, with Booking 9.4 and Agoda 9.1 — pitched squarely at couples, honeymooners, and adult travelers who want a hidden city oasis.

The Frangipani Royal Palace Hotel is a 64-room 4-star tucked down a quiet lane in the Riverside district of Phnom Penh's old town, about a 5 to 7-minute walk from the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda and a few minutes more to the four-faced river confluence (Chaktomuk) that comes alive every evening. The highlight real reviews mention most is the rooftop — a small pool plus a Sky Bar opening onto panoramic views in every direction, taking in the Palace's golden roofs, the bend of the Mekong, and the Phnom Penh skyline at sunset. It is one of the city's most romantic cocktail spots at a price you can actually reach. Rooms run cream-and-teak modern with Khmer textile touches, soft beds and warm, easygoing staff. Rates start around $43 a night and reach roughly $100 for a suite. Agoda gives it 8.7 and Booking 8.6, averaging 8.7/10 — a fit for couples and slow-travel city walkers on a budget.

Patio Hotel & Urban Resort is a 45-room boutique planted in the heart of BKK1 — Phnom Penh's expat quarter, where French-style cafes put chairs on the pavement and you can walk to Italian, Japanese and cocktail spots without ever flagging a tuk-tuk. What sets it apart from other mid-scale hotels nearby sits on the 7th floor: an infinity pool whose edge looks poured into the city skyline, plus an evening sky bar where the gold light drops across the river. Rooms run a warm mid-scale boutique look — earth tones, timber grain, contemporary Khmer fabric as accent detail rather than gimmick. Rates start at roughly $40 a night and top out near $90 in high season, which makes it a regular pick for travelers chasing soft-luxury comfort on a real budget. A combined 8.7/10 on both Agoda and Booking reflects guests who leave consistently happy.

Amanjaya Pancam Suites is a 21-room all-suite boutique on Sisowath Quay, Phnom Penh's riverside boulevard, sitting directly across from the confluence of the Mekong and Tonle Sap — the meeting point Cambodians call Chaktomuk, or "four faces." The cream French colonial building was fully renovated in 2020, and every suite layers dark rosewood furniture with traditional Khmer silk under high ceilings and real timber floors. River-facing suites open onto a private balcony where you can nurse a coffee and watch fishing boats slide past all morning. The rooftop Kwest Brasserie & Bar draws the most consistent praise in guest reviews — sunset drinks with both rivers and the Royal Palace in one frame. The Royal Palace is a 5-minute walk, Wat Ounalom just 2 minutes, and the airport runs 35-45 minutes by car. Rates start around US$51/night, with Agoda 8.5 and Booking 8.6 — pitched at couples and culture travelers who want riverside character over big-chain scale.
