An Insider's Take
'Step into Cambodia's most legendary hotel, where Jacqueline Kennedy once stayed and the famous Elephant Bar cocktail was born in 1933.' What's Special? This colonial masterpiece opened in 1929 and survived the Khmer Rouge era, preserving its original French Indochine elegance. The hotel's State Room has hosted royalty and dignitaries for nearly a century, while its stunning poolside terrace offers respite from Phnom Penh's bustling streets.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Visit the Elephant Bar between 5-7 PM for their legendary happy hour – try the signature "Femme Fatale" cocktail, invented here and named after the hotel's mysterious past.
Don't Miss The Royal Palace is just a 10-minute walk away, and the bustling Central Market sits practically next door. Book the hotel's tuk-tuk tour to explore the Silver Pagoda and National Museum – all within a stone's throw of this historic gem.
