Kampot Hotels - Reviews and Rates

The town of Kampot in the deep South of Cambodia is an absolute delight. It boasts a number of good cafes and bars along the waterfront, most foreign managed with their own degree of Khmer eccentricity. The French feel is still present here, and as the town opens up more and more western backed businesses are investing.

The main local st...

After Tuk Meas I returned to Kampot, where I spent a couple of weeks volunteering out at Chumkriel Learning Centre - a fantastic little initiative attached to a small state school, on the grounds of a wat, just outside of Kampot - about a 10 minute bike ride.

The f...

My B&B (beach&beer) is over, moving inland. It was not possible to get directly from Bamboo Island to Kampot, so I had to go back to Sihanoukville, stay overnight and next day in the morning take a bus to my destination city. The town itself does not offer much, but is a good base point for one day trips around it. Definitely the main a...

Well I've finaly left the beach! I traveled about two hours away to the Provincial Capital of Kempot. This small classic French colonial and Chinese architecture style town is set on the Kampong Bay River at the base of the Elephant Mountians. Set with picture perfection! Quiet lanes, beautiful trees and very few tourist help make Kempot feel ve...

Hello, I just returned from Kempot this afternoon. I met a really great girl named Anglee. She lives there and wanted to take me home to meet her family. No...No it's not like that. It took about 1.5 hours to get there in a taxi. The countryside is one picture after another. You can see this wonderful view of Bokor Mountain with the rain clouds ...

We liked Kampot immediately, probably because it still hasn't been subjected to the full tourist town makeover. It's a small peaceful town with big, wide dusty streets and little traffic. Running along the edge of the town is a beautiful, big river across which is a small village built on stilts at the waters edge. Behind the village you can see...

We took a share taxi to Kampot, we luckily only had 5 people in ours (son and I in the passenger seat), apparently they can hold 7, we heard stories of 13 in the car (a normal car too) and can believe it , we've seen people sitting out the window and peope on bonnets and roofs too! Kampot is a great town, has a really nice feel to it, spacious b...

Set off at 8.30 for the Bokor National Park and abandend hill station. There were two no shows for which they wanted to increase the price of the trip for the others. Unsuprisingly we all declined, that said the guide did say he was only asking and was still running the trip. That left six of us setting off in the back of a Nissan version of a T...

Kampot is a tiny fishing village town and is in a beautiful location between Kampot river and the sea. We finally got to a beach however the water down here is sooo hot it was like swimming in a hot bath and there are no waves because the gulf is nearly enclosed by islands and land. But hey atleast we still got to see the sea sort of and go for ...
