A definite step up from most Kompong Chhnang options in cleanliness and style, this is a popular spot for the NGO crowd. It has 30 good-sized rooms with modern bathrooms and plenty of light, plus a decent restaurant. A new wing at the back offers positively boutique-style rooms and a 1st-floor swimming pool. Book ahead.
