Rambutan Resort - Phnom Penh

Rambutan Resort is a small-is eco-resort in a stylish part of Phnom Penh (remember, the French built the city). Building on its original sister Rambutan in Siem Reap the owners place strong value on good design, airy spaces, a green pool (no chlorine), quite large well-designed rooms/apartments - all with garden outlooks and some with totally private gardens + outdoor bath. The owners have strong commitments to well-prepared Khmer and European food, to natural products and recycling - and also in training their local staff, including sending them to English classes and providing them with extended family assistance initiatives - so they are all very happy and willing.

Nothing that I can recall.

The staff was dedicated and very helpful in so many ways. It was our 34th anniversary as I mentioned in my booking as we wanted a nice room for the occasion, and they had put out flower petals on the bed spelling out happy anniversary; we were so touched! The breakfast was excellent and so were the meals. The staff went out of their way to help with restaurants, onward connections, arranging tuk-tuks, etc and we were very pleased. Food for the free breakfast and for lunch and dinner was excellent.

The location of the hotel is a bit far from the main attractions and restaurants, that was the only thing, but this could not be helped. We felt very welcome and looked after the entire time.

The pool was fantastic. The staff were awesome and very friendly. I was upgrade on arrival so that always helps make for an enjoyable experience

Great social entreprise with friendly staff, a nice saltwater pool and outdoor bath tubs in the rooms on the upper floors.
