Classic Luxury

Raffles Hotel Le Royal

The grand and historic Raffles Hotel Le Royal is the premier address in Cambodia's capital Phnom Penh. Not only is it an authentic luxury Art Deco hotel but it is also a true colonial classic, deep in the heart of this riverside city.

Phnom Penh, Cambodia
  • The iconic hotel in Phnom Penh

  • 170 elegant rooms complete with original features

  • Colonial hotel that first opened in 1929

  • Central location close to the city's attractions


The most romantic and atmospheric hotel in Phnom Penh, Raffles Hotel Le Royal dates back to 1929 and has had a whole array of notable guests from writers and journalists to royalty stay over the years. After careful restoration, this historic hotel fulfils all the requirements of a modern world-class hotel in facilities and amenities without losing any of its an old-world colonial charm.

The 175 rooms are all tastefully decorated in Khmer and French colonial styles and range from State and Landmark Rooms through to various exquisite suites. Stay in the Jacqueline Kennedy Suite or the Charles De Gaulle Suite to follow in the footsteps of some of the famous celebrities and dignitaries who have stayed at the hotel over the many years.

Hotel le Royal is centred around a beautiful peaceful tropical garden courtyard and has two swimming pools. With five restaurants and bars to chose from which offer everything from poolside snacks to refined Cambodian cuisine to English afternoon tea and the tranquil Amrita Spa where you can indulge yourself after a day enjoying the city's attractions, Raffles is the perfect base for your stay in Phnom Penh.
