Plantation Hotel
PRICE: Worth maxing out for
Nestled in the heart of Phnom Penh and within walking distance to the Royal Palace and the serene banks of the Tonle Sap River, Plantation Hotel offers an enchanting blend of modern luxury and traditional Khmer charm.
Its prime location places you within easy reach of the city’s cultural gems—the National Museum, the bustling Central Market, and the tree-lined avenues of the historic French Quarter—while providing a tranquil sanctuary from the vibrant rhythm of the streets.
The hotel’s architecture expertly integrates contemporary and colonial elements. Colonial-era buildings with their arched windows and intricate ironwork stand side-by-side with sleek, contemporary structures. The result is a space that feels both timeless and fresh, where a lush garden courtyard, with its swaying palms and fragrant frangipanis, welcomes you into a world of calm. A central courtyard with a large, sparkling pool creates an atmosphere of relaxation—an oasis where cool blue water reflects the verdant tropical foliage around it. The shaded lounge areas invite you to unwind while sipping a refreshing drink or reading a book.
Inside, the rooms feature teak wood floors, high ceilings, and soft lighting that creates a space of warmth and relaxation. Large windows allow natural light to flood the rooms, while subtle details like Cambodian textiles and handmade furniture create an intimate atmosphere. Many rooms offer private balconies that overlook the pool or the hotel’s lush gardens, adding an extra layer of serenity to the experience.
Service at Plantation is impeccable, with a team that strikes the perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with a refreshing welcome drink and a smile, setting the tone for your stay. The staff is always on hand to assist with any request, whether it’s arranging a private tour of the city’s historical landmarks, booking a treatment at the in-house spa, or recommending the best local eateries.
The rooftop bar offers panoramic views of Phnom Penh, with a cocktail menu that reflects the flavors of Cambodia, while the restaurant serves up a fusion of Cambodian and international dishes. The spa offers a range of traditional treatments, from aromatic massages to soothing body scrubs, all designed to refresh both body and mind.
With its perfect blend of luxury, history, and modern comforts, Plantation Hotel offers a peaceful retreat in the midst of Phnom Penh’s bustling energy.
