Angkor Village Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

The century-old wooden khmer houses reassembled around a lily-pond garden on Wat Boo Road, Angkor Village Hotel arranges its teak pavilions beneath a forest canopy thick enough to block direct sun by mid-morning. The effect is of a private compound rather than a hotel.

Rooms occupy elevated bungalows linked by raised walkways; louvred shutters and hand-carved panels replace generic resort furnishings. The open-air restaurant serves amok and lok lak using produce from the Siem Reap Old Market two kilometres south.

Wat Boo Road places guests inside the French Quarter's quieter western fringe, within a short tuk-tuk ride of Angkor Wat's south gate. The hotel arranges pre-dawn temple transfers timed for sunrise before the coach groups arrive.
