Phnom Penh Boutique Hotels - Reviews and Rates

We arrived in Phnom Penh yesterday after bussing from Siem Reap. I must say the thrill of gazing out of a bus window at the Cambodian countryside is starting to wear off, however one more trip and we will be back in HCMC. We are staying on the riverfront, enjoyable if not quite Sydney Harbour standard. Today we will take a look at the National M...

We have traveled through Laos, Vietnam and now Cambodia but we have been quite absent in our blog. So here we are again, back to you after some weeks in the shadow. We have uploaded some pictures from most places we have been to (check out the little google map!), so take a look at the different entries to follow our adventures of the past weeks...

Today was an interesting day. We headed out early this morning and met our guide, Rambo, for the day. He took us to S-21 Proson first where we spent a few hours going through and seeing where the Kh\mer Rouge killed so many people and then we watched a video on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuol_Sleng _Genocide_Museum Around noon we headed ou...

The taxi from the airport, in rush hour, gave us our first true taste of this city. Traffic rules do not apply here and scooters wait until their combined numbers are big enough to force their way across the intersection. Top sights were the man on a moped with an exercise bike strapped to his shoulders and the man on a bicycle pushing a ten-sea...

So we arrive here and meet Rick, our course director. He's about 60, American and has spent the last 38 years in this part of the world. We take a Tuc-Tuc to where we are staying- a large house owned by Language Corps dubbed "The Villa". The ride from the airport to here was terrifying- everyone rides motorcycles and no one stops at intersection...

I of HI: I wasn't really planning to come to Cambodia! But I needed to make a border run to sort out my passport (after it lost the ink in the flood) and enter back into Thailand on my American, fully inked one. So I'm going to spend a little time in Phnom Penh and then a few days at the most stunning Ankor Wat. I didn't realize how massive a te...

Day 14. Today, was cooking class day! Early start, and we were out of the hotel and walking to class by 8:30am. By the time all the students had arrived, it was 9:30am, and we were zooming along by tuk-tuk to the local markets. We were dropped off in the middle of an open-air market, selling everything you could ever want to cook. Similar to the...

Hallo liebe Leute Am 9. April sind wir von Bangkok nach Phnom Penh in Cambodscha geflogen. Das erste was man bei der Ankunft machen muss, ist das Visum zu bezahlen. Viel komplizierter wirds nicht, es hat alles bestens funktioniert. Man zahlt 20 dollar, zeigt den pass und darf ins land. Vom Flughafen haben wir uns in ein Guesthouse im Zentrum der...

Phnom Penh is now a small but busy city: shady tree-lined boulevards lit with French lamp posts, a legacy of its colonial heritage; wide grassy walkways where crowds gather in the evening to play badminton, practise tai chi, socialise and flirt;  a relaxed riverfront overlooked by a string of restaurants and cafes; bustling markets selling ever...
