Home Vattanak Guesthouse

Top choice in Northwestern Cambodia


Undoubtedly the best-value digs in Preah Vihear City, this is also a candidate for one of the best deals in the country. The 27 well-maintained rooms at this sparkling-clean hotel include wonderful beds, decent bathrooms and luxuries such as flat-screen TVs. US$10 includes air-con and hot water; US$20 gets a Jacuzzi-style tub.

Its central but quiet location, tucked down a quiet side street, is an extra bonus.
