Raffles Grand Hotel Angkor

A grand, historic hotel, Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor opened its doors in the early 1930s. It is located on the main road to Angkor Wat and was planned so that it aligns on a north-south axis with Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom. Now sensitively restored, the hotel’s classic style coupled with its renewed modernity complement the grandeur of Angkor Wat. The hotel has 119 guest rooms and suites, each tastefully appointed with Art Deco-styled furnishings and Cambodian objets d’art.
