Character and identity
Opened in 1932 as Siem Reap's first luxury hotel, this 131-room grande dame sits five miles from Angkor Wat on 15 acres of palm-shaded gardens. The architecture is French art deco wrapped in colonial scale: a marble lobby with a wrought-iron grand staircase, French doors opening onto balconies, and a pool modelled on the ancient baths of Angkor Wat. A 2019 refurbishment lifted rooms with warmer woods and brighter palettes while keeping the 1930s bones. Signature restaurant 1932 pours from a 400-bottle cellar alongside Khmer cooking, the Elephant Bar handles classic cocktails, and the six-room Raffles Spa leans on Khmer massage, available in the gardens.
Who's it for
Best for:
Couples and culturally curious travellers using Siem Reap as a base for Angkor Wat, who want their temple days bookended by colonial atmosphere, a serious wine list, and the bucket-list private candlelit dinner inside the temple complex with Apsara dancers. History-minded guests who appreciate a property with a guest book running from Chaplin to Jolie.
Should look elsewhere:
Travellers chasing a contemporary design hotel or a beach will be in the wrong country, let alone the wrong property. The pace is gracious rather than buzzy, and those wanting walkable nightlife on the doorstep should consider somewhere closer to Pub Street.
Bottom line
The pull here is heritage and proximity: a 1932 landmark within easy reach of Angkor Wat, refreshed enough to feel current without erasing its art deco identity. Splurge on a suite or villa to get the full scale of the original architecture, build in a temple dinner well in advance, and book a spa treatment outdoors in the gardens.
