A stay that felt like a beautiful journey into another era; gracious and deeply personal!
Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor is perhaps one of the best places in the world to experience old-world charm, the comforts of a bygone era and beautifully preserved, period-authentic details. We spent a week here and absolutely loved it. We were upgraded to a lovely suite overlooking the pool and the wonderfully lush grounds. Even the vintage elevator, beautifully maintained and still in use, was a small joy every time we stepped into it! The location is hard to beat...right in the heart of Siem Reap and wonderfully close to the temple circuit. After a day exploring Angkor, coming back to the quiet elegance of the Raffles and its massive pool was always a pleasure. Breakfast was another highlight. The buffet was superb, but what really impressed us was the warmth and attentiveness of the team. The chef and service staff went out of their way to accommodate our individual dietary preferences and even off-menu requests, doing so with genuine ease and care. That level of personalised attention is rare and was executed flawlessly. The team is exceptionally well trained, yet the service feels warm, natural and deeply personal. The Raffles manages that increasingly rare combination of history, elegance, comfort and genuine hospitality. We would happily return for the people, the place and the perfection The Raffles embodies.
