Sofitel Angkor Phokeethra Golf And Spa Resort

We recently stayed four nights at the Sofitel Angkor Phokeethra Golf and Spa Resort in Siem Reap, finding this to be a very impressive property and good representation of the Sofitel brand. Reservation was made by way of booking.com. Confirmation email was received immediately, payment was taken shortly afterwards. We were excellently received upon arrival and allowed to check-in a few hours early, which was much appreciated. The lobby area is beautifully decorated with a blend of French colonial and Khmer inspired furnishing and decor. As for the property grounds, you'll find a large area well landscaped with trees, shrubs, flowering plants, Khmer sculptures, walking paths around an artificial lake with fountain, bridges and beautiful seating areas throughout. There is a large pool, spa and gym embedded into the garden setting as well. Guests have several Sofitel restaurants spread out around the property as well. We enjoyed a very good meal at the Mouhot's Dream French restaurant as well as a couple visits to the Traveler's Tales bar attached to the lobby. Otherwise, we found a couple places to eat outside the hotel not too far away that were pretty good as well. In this regard, the property is located 2 km north of the city centre of Siem Reap along Charles de Gaulle Rd. This is the major road taken when making your way north to the Angkor Archeological Park to visit the temples. We enjoyed walking into the city in the mornings for light sightseeing and casual meals. However, the temple complexes are too far away and require transportation and tour guides, which you can arrange on your own or through Sofitel. As for our room, you will find much space, comfort and quality. Furnishing is French inspired. The bed is soft, providing good sleep. Guests have choose of pillows. Seating chair was comfortable, balcony table with view into the gardens and lake was much enjoyed.

A bit far from the city centre when it comes to walking, especially midday when it is hot and sunny outside.
