Ohana Phnom Penh Palace Hotel

Ohana Phnom Penh Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Excelente hotel. El personal del front desk fue muy atento desde el primer momento: siempre me abrieron la puerta y me hicieron sentir como en casa. La chica de la limpieza fue muy servicial y respondía rápido a cualquier petición: toallas, limpieza extra, lo que fuera. Mi habitación tenía balcón en el segundo piso, de cara a la entrada del hotel. Se veía todo muy bien y la zona estaba bastante animada, ideal para observar la vida de la calle. La ubicación es perfecta: todo está a pie o a un tuk-tuk de menos de un dólar. El gimnasio estuvo bien y el desayuno también, aunque el personal a veces se distrae con el teléfono y faltan algunas cosas. La habitación estaba muy bien equipada: el wifi funciona bien, el minibar es bastante amplio, tiene bañera con secador y el aire acondicionado funciona perfectamente. En general, una experiencia muy buena. Lo recomiendo."

10/10 Excellent
"Baitong means "green" in Khmer and that truly shows in this hotel/resort. The pictures you see of the Forest Garden Pool is way better in ́person. The staff is great, very nice and polite. I booked the Terrace Garden View, I liked it but I think I should have booked the Pool View instead. I did like the privacy of the terrace, but the room is hidden behind the forest and that is all the view. Still a great room! The buffet breakfast was good. I like the egg station and the noodle soup station. The buffet is a mix of Khmer/Asian/Western options. Location of the hotel is also ideal, very near Independence Monument. Overall I highly recommend."
