Grand Hotel D'AngkorSiem Reap (Angkor Wat) Nothing beats returning to the historic Grand Hotel D'Angkor after a hot day in the sun exploring the awe-inspiring ruins at Angkor Wat. Rooms in the hotel's original building are preferred, with their high ceilings, marble bathrooms, and suites decorated with period-style furnishings and oriental rugs. Sip a gin and tonic in the Elephant Bar and celebrate your visit to Cambodia as did Somerset Maugham and Jackie Kennedy. It's worth pointing out that the hotel's cuisine is the best available in Siem Reap. The hotel echoes of times past, yet the services and rooms are truly modern. This is the place to stay if you want to experience the grandeur and tradition of Angkor.
