La Residence d’Angkor, Siem Reap

Cross a bridge over a lotus pond to reach this intimate, all-suite sanctuary, where ancient tradition meets contemporary style. One of the first luxury hotels to open in the heart of Siem Reap, this escape is arranged around a discreet courtyard surrounded by towering palms and tropical greenery, where guests are encouraged to slow down and relax. Spend your days at the enticing saltwater pool – the hotel’s centrepiece – indulge at the sleek spa or recline on your suite’s private terrace, for a moment of alfresco serenity. If you need to switch gears, swap the fragrant frangipani and vibrant bougainvillea for the buzz of Siem Reap’s lively markets, galleries and thriving restaurant and nightlife scene, just a ten-minute walk away.
