Vive Battambang's colonial Thai & French heritage. Our renovations are inspired by the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, embracing and glorifying transience and natural ageing. We’ve preserved the building’s original features and distressed finishes, sealing them under layers of glaze, styling our rooms with antiques and period pieces from across Asia. Floors range from vintage Battambang green swirl-motif tiles to very contemporary highly-glazed polished concrete replete with Persian carpets. Sumptuous sleep comfort in the city's most central location Plus all mod-cons, from free hi-speed internet, both AC & ceiling fans in every room, bidet toilet seats, & our goal for sustainability & responsibility
Our building’s central circular stairwell ensures you direct room access and privacy, ultra high ceilings throughout. Pure cotton and linen sheets, hypoallergenic down pillows, and natural fibre mattresses. All rooms have free Wi-Fi, both air con and ceiling fan, universal plug outlets (220 v) and complimentary French continental breakfast/petit déjeuner tray delivered daily to your room. There is an extensive library of video movies, cd’s and games to borrow freely, with monitors available for private viewing. Or simply relax in our downstairs cafe while listening to the crooning of Khmer legend Sinn Sisamouth. We also offer periodic stylist workshops, and boast Battambang’s only interior design showroom, with rare and exquisite textiles for sale, antiques, (and dare we say) bric-à-brac. Private cooking classes, finished with a sit down dinner at our 19th century grand Baroque-style dining table, is offered exclusively to in-house guests.
