Also, I have to say that the HdlP beds are the most comfortable that I have ever slept on ANYWHERE in the world. Fabulous pillows and comforter, just the right weight and loft, and the sheets never came untucked. A truly heavenly bed (sorry, Sheraton!)

Are you touring with Ponheary, Kim? We were only able to visit a school with her (fun!), but were extremely happy with our guide Sam, who she had referred us to.

Yes, we've got 6 days with her, our whole stay. We've asked her about only the morning or afternoon sometimes to keep it light and easy for Teaghan (and me!) but we'll pay her for 6 full days. We will go to some villages and to a somewhat far away village on Tonle Sap as well, in addition to temples. Luckily, Teaghan loves temples and really enjoyed an exhibit here in Kanazawa last year from the National Museum in Phnom Penh.

I really love Angkor Wat, that's amazing place. You might find the hotel list from this site : http://www.hotelsguru.com/cambodia-s...ce-hotels.html , the one that I have ever used. Really appreciate! You can ask them for optional tour from this site.

i'm also going to siem reap in a few months. i'm planning on staying at the Villa Siem Reap. the budget rooms start from 10-15 US and the superior rooms can go up to 40-60US.

After we successfully switched out of a rank-smelling smoking room we were mistakenly assigned; we had a nice stay at the Angkor Century Hotel; even though we had to call for repairs to our broken lamp and television. Breakfast was good and it's a 10-minute walk or easy tuk-tuk ride to most of the restaurants near the Old Market. Also, the pool area and spa are terrific. Staff were particularly attentive and friendly here.

I just stayed at the Bopha Angkor at the end of January. I popped for a 'deluxe pool view' room, which was definitely worth it. The pool is at the back of the complex, and so all the 'pool' rooms are the furthest away from traffic.

My deluxe room was huge. There was definitely some effort put in to make it fancy, although it sometimes missed the mark - the drapes wouldn't have been out of place in bordello. While it wasn't dirty, the room was definitely 'tired', which is quite common in locally operated hotels in Asia.
