Babel Boutique

Home away from home. A lovely, spacious and welcoming guest house with excellent staff, good food and great cocktails. The additional services of knowledgeable tuk tuk drivers and an English speaking guide also greatly enriched our experience of Siem Reap.

This cute little hotel is very welcoming, homely and has that lovely friendly vibe. Staff are lovely and very helpful, great food, the best smoothies and rooms are big and nicely furnished . Hotel is in a very central area so close to everything, there is always a tuk tuk at the ready , staff will call it for you. Pool was lovely for a swim. We were upstairs along with four other room with a mix and mingle balcony where we sat most late afternoon for a drink A great place to stay Thankyou staff

We spent 3 nights in Babel Boutique Hotel. I confess that reading about it in the NYT was influential in our choice. What others have written is accurate: it is small and intimate, with friendly atmosphere and tasty breakfast. Its small pool appeared lovely, tucked under plumerias, but we didn't try it. Smartly, it had metal clothes hangers, which are extremely useful for hanging wet clothes to dry. The staff provided very good recommendations for dinner and the hotel has took-touk drivers, with one of whom we spent a wonderful 2 days. However, responding to emails took a while. Our room was not very clean. The a/c was marginally efficient (it took hours to get to 24 degrees Celsius). There were very few electrical sockets in our room and of those some were not functional. There were 4 main choices for breakfast, and that was it. When I asked them to make a local call for us, I was told they couldn't because they had exhausted their monthly allotment. Would we stay there again? I'm not sure we would. Should I trust reading sources, such as the NYT? I'm still debating on that.

We spent 3 nights here. I was impressed by the fact we were in the middle of the city close to everything, yet the place had a tranquil feel about it. Swimming pool under the perfumed plumeria trees was truly magical! Very friendly Khmer staff, especially Red (waitress) and Mike (who drove us comfortably to the airport). Food was good too!

Super fijn kleinschalig hotel. Ruime kamers en een hele fijne relaxte sfeer. Meerdere keuzes bij ontbijt, prima kwaliteit en vers. Bedden tikkie te hard (zwakke rug) maar in vergelijking met het gemiddelde hotel in Cambodja (bedden meestal hard) een flinke stap comfortabeler. Kortom; heel fijn verblijf in een mooi hotel in een leuke buurt nabij downtown Siem Reap. Aanbevolen!
