Fodor's Expert Review Raffles Grand Hotel d'Angkor

1 Vithei Charles de Gaulle, Siem Reap, Siem Reap, Cambodia

Built in 1932 and still featuring the original cage elevator from that year in the lobby, this grande dame was restored and reopened after near destruction by occupying Khmer Rouge guerrillas. The Grand is a fine remnant of the colonial days, combining French sensibilities and Cambodian art with Oriental carpets and wicker furniture; rooms are large and elegant, with balconies that overlook the extensive gardens and pool.

PROS

  • picturesque gardens
  • excellent restaurant
  • Old World charm

CONS

  • pricier than may be warranted, due to the name
