Bambu Hotel

Nice location. Clean place & comfortable.

Recommend this hotel. We had problem with our booking that was handled with professionalism and resolved amicably. The room was spacious and cool. We enjoyed the amenities inc the very generous breakfast. The pool was a welcome reprieve. The owners guide notes on things to do proved to be invaluable. Great stay!

The reception staff upgraded our room without extra charge as I preferred not to be on the ground floor,thank you very much! The room is constructed in Khmer pattern, solid wood and well designed, with a large bathroom The whole hotel architecture is lovely with a beautiful garden and a clean pool. The bar has an extensive drinks list and the cooked breakfast is superb. We also had tasty, freshly made dinner twice and it was delicious, under the moonlight, with a view over the garden. The owner is involved and everything runs smoothly.

The hotel is nice and the rooms are quite large. It was clean and offered everything needed (AC, fridge,...). The location is good as well. There's a mini market, restaurants and a gym just next door and the city center can be reached within 5 minutes (by Tuk Tuk). Also, the staff was very lovely and helpful. We however missed the "love for detail" a bit. The pool area and restaurant have great potential but would need a bit of renovation (dirty umbrellas, pool beds were partly broken). We felt the same during the breakfast. The selection was fine but the used productions were not fresh or nicely arranged on the plate. Overall, definitely a place to stay for 1 or 2 nights if you don't want something "super fancy".

We visited after a busy few days touring Siem Reap so found this hotel very relaxing and the bar very charming and welcome! The weather was against us in terms of enjoying the pool but a pretty backdrop to dinner and drinks. The service was excellent and the tiger beer on draft was especially pleasing for hubby. Room spacious and bathroom and shower great. Overall the best place to visit along with the bamboo train in Battenbang.

The hotel photos used for advertising are brilliant - they are accurate in showing the buildings and facilities - but overplay the ambience. To be truthful the hotel needs some mild refreshment - particularly the shower/bathrooms which are jaded. However - the hotel rooms are pleasantly arranged around the pool - as is the bar. The breakfasts are pretty basic but are served fresh and properly cooked - not a complaint. The hotel is also kept clean with good bedding and towels. The room we had was a good size - plenty of room for luggage - nice double balcony overlooking the pool - no road noise. The shower is lined with natural marble which was “unsealed” so exhibited black-spotting on the surfaces and crevices which didn’t encourage you to linger. When we stayed there were roadworks - so the walk into town was a tad dusty near the hotel - it is a 10-15 minute walk into the centre - across the river - and the road traffic is pretty light. Overall a good/acceptable stay which the hotel could easily make excellent with a few small tweaks to their offering.
