Anantara Angkor Resort

It’s storytime!! The concierge service at Anantara Angkor was 10 out of 10! I haven’t felt this special and cared for and I REALLY really needed it!! It was a short trip that I was originally calling a mini holiday to see Angkor Wat (bucket list), but it had become more than that. It had become a much needed personal spiritual recharge after a personal loss a few days prior. I had come to pray and soak up the incredible creator’s energy in this place. While doing so I tried not to let my pain shine through and so I smile and give the kindness I hope for but don’t also expect in return. To my utter delight I was given back kindness and care 100x. From the moment I met my guest service agent, Mouyee, at the airport I felt like the center of the universe. What a warm, genuine smile and disposition this lovely lady radiated. She was incredibly attentive to the details of all my notes and nut allergies and wishes on a whim — all were perfectly addressed. The ride home was a lovely welcome immersion rich with information that only enhanced my trip and prepared me for my sunrise visit to Angkor Wat the next morning. The Angkor Wat guide that the hotel provided was the spiritual guide I didn’t know I needed. His depth of knowledge about Angkor Wat was top tier but his ability to appease my curiosity about Buddhism was next level. But the conversation was bigger than religion, it was about the human condition, universal truths, feeding one’s soul and seeing and seizing one’s own power. I was so full with many sparks that I extracted from the hours of conversations and from the inspiring history of this wonder of the world. So grateful for that experience. Each moment in the hotel was complete luxury and top notch service. I randomly asked if they had rose apples that I could pack as snacks. It wasn’t on the menu, but by afternoon lunch the staff had gone out and obtained some for me! I had the best croissants I’ve eaten outside of Paris at breakfast (PS - a bit of Cambodia’s historical french influence peaking through). One evening I was so tired that I slept through dinner and the next morning multiple staff members noted that they hadn't seen me and asked me if all was ok. While at the hotel bar one evening the guest service team surprised me with a cute mini cake and chocolates. They would have left it in my room during turndown but I forgot to turn off the DND light. How sweet?! Speaking of the bar, the bartender was a mixologist— every cocktail was delicious, nuanced and well balanced. The conversation was filled with humor (I needed a laugh) and recommendations to further personalize my stay in short time I had. And my spa massage… there was magic in my masseuse’s fingers. I am a picky client (pressure must be just right and please avoid my tickle trigger points) , but she nailed it. My muscles are still grateful. As a business professional I travel a lot. Service in Asia is far better that my native US and in Europe — and I have stayed at the Waldorf to The W to the Martinez Cannes and everything in between. Honestly the Anantara collection staff is among the best. But this stay in Cambodia was the best of the best. And as a human who uses travel as a means of healing and personal growth, this was a badly needed experience and escape. Thank you Mouyee and Team for the incredible service, care and unconscious compassion. I needed this! Story time over.

Beautiful and delightful

Lovely hotel, super friendly and polite staff, high quality food. Perfect base for visiting the ancient temples as only 15 minutes away and just 10 minutes from all the restaurants and markets in Siem Reap. Siem Reap itself appears very clean and organized, very friendly and kind people, wide range of cuisines and very good value. We loved our visit.

The most amazing hotel I have had the pleasure to stay in, the staff were amazing the attention to detail really made our holiday, we were a party of 8 and we were treated like royalty, the food was 1st class the spa was out of this world, can’t wait to visit again.

Small 5 star hotel 5 mins by Tuk tuk from bars and markets. Staff were amazing and attention to detail was excellent. Food was delicious too. Rooms are old colonial style but clean and with all resources needed.

Amazing stay at Anantara Angkor resort. From the booking and ongoing communication, nothing was ever too much for the Anantara team. The level of customer service has been excellent with every member of the team going above and beyond. The boutique resort ensures that we all felt very much at home. The Yin Yang package was just wonderful, facilities excellent, F&B offerings excellent. Highly recommended availing of the VIP visa service. A very special thank you to Yuki and the team for making our very special trip such a memorable one. We can’t wait to return. Thank you.

Outstanding service - they remember everything and go the extra mile. Packed breakfast to go when we had an early flight. We enjoyed lunch as part of our tour packages and loved the local dishes. Service at Chi and front desk were amazing. Booked all tours thru hotel - had a wonderful guide and driver. Pricey but worth it. Cambodia is now at the top of our list. I imagine this is close to being like HBOs White Lotus but without the terrible guests and murders!

Our stay at Anantara Angkor Resort will be memorable. The hotel is not too large, beautifully decorated, and the rooms are very comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the attention of all staff, from the front office to the pool, spa, bar, and restaurant. Some advice: the "new year" (April) is very warm, and a lot of locals travel to Siem Reap. It is, however, a nice experience because people play in a very nice manner. The day after the official celebration is perfect to visit the temples and other sites around Siem Reap.
