Raffles Hotel Le Royal
Since 1929, Raffles Hotel Le Royal has embodied Phnom Penh’s colonial elegance, offering timeless luxury, a slick Art Deco lobby and an especially alluring garden and outdoor pool. It remains the landmark address of Cambodia's capital.
Located in the heart of vibrant Phnom Penh, rooms and suites reflect an unusual blend of Khmer, Art Deco and French colonial architecture. The elegant Le Royal Restaurant serves modern French cuisine and Royal Khmer dishes, while the Raffles Spa offers relaxation and rejuvenation through a mix of local and classic treatments.
The garden and outdoor pool – where Jackie Kennedy swam in the 1960s – are especially lovely, and the historic Elephant Bar is as much loved today as it was when it was sought out by Somerset Maugham and other notable literati.
