Located between central Siem Reap and the Angkor Archaeological Park, the Grand Hotel d’Angkor is a landmark property with a heritage that’s been sympathetically restored by Raffles. Exuding historic charm and character, the 1930’s building enjoys a prime position near the Royal Gardens in the French Quarter. The interiors honour the building’s history, with 1930s Art Deco furnishings, roll top baths and even a resident historian. At 35m long, the hotel’s pool is a tempting diversion, while the well-equipped fitness centre and excellent spa combine to make this one of the more indulgently relaxing hotels in the city.
The 119 rooms, suites and villas come with a private butler to add an extra touch of luxury to the marble bathrooms, rainforest showers, views over the Royal Gardens or pool, and daily turndown service. Indulge with a champagne breakfast at Cafe d’Angkor, a light lunch poolside, afternoon tea in the conservatory, and Cambodian fine dining at 1932 for a day filled with culinary innovation and enjoyment. After a spot of over-indulgence, the tennis courts and fitness centre call, or simply unwind with a holistic treatment in the spa or a foot massage in the sun-dappled shade of the frangipani.
