Indochine is based on the French word for its Southeast Asian colonial empire. The room’s painted finish walls reflect the ageing exterior of coloinal buildings facing the street, juxtaposed with a very contemporary pink grass cloth wallpaper. We’ve preserved the bathroom’ original wall coating under layers of glaze, and added a Khmer graffitti motif. Rooms styled with antiques and distressed period pieces. The cooling floor tiles are original.

Featuring an ultra-comfortable queen-size mattress made of all-natural fibres, pure linen sheets, down pillows. The en-suite bathroom has a spacious shower with instant-hot water, and walls decorated with a Khmer graffitti motif. Plus semi-private balcony to gaze on Battambang’s leisurely street life. Free Wi-Fi, air con and ceiling fan.

Our queen-size Battambang Indochine room has lodgings for one or two, with a complimentary classic continental breakfast/petit déjeuner tray delivered daily to your room.
Free happy hour drink 5-6 pm
