Gay Hotel Siem Reap

Gay travelers looking for a welcoming hotel in authentic Khmer village style in the heart of Siem Reap must consider Rambutan Resort.
Gay-friendly means you’re sure to find many other like-minded guests already staying there.

Its location is spot-on; either the Pub Street bars or gay nightlife are within 10 minutes of walking (or staggering home after a big night).

It’s two properties next to each other, which means there are two pools to choose from. The restaurant and spa are open to guests from either property.

We love that the hotel is environmentally and socially responsible, and the use of green energy across the properties gets a big tick in our book. Rambutan Resort is one of the most booked gay hotels in Siem Reap.

This upscale resort sits directly across from the Royal Gardens and the Royal Residence, placing you right in the heart of old-world Khmer grandeur. It features elegant colonial-inspired design throughout the property. The rooms have vintage furnishings, wooden floors, and beautiful floor-to-ceiling paneled windows that overlook the lush tropical gardens or the large pool. The on-site food is excellent, especially the breakfast, and the colonial-themed bar is super stylish. Complimentary perks include free airport pick-up and, in the case of the suites, champagne in your room upon arrival.

This colorful hotel blends traditional Khmer architecture and decor with a playful, modern approach to design. All the rooms are comfortable and decorated with bright colored walls – we recommend the Deluxe Poolside Rooms or the Royal Suite. The pool area is the highlight of the orange-toned central courtyard and is a great place to unwind after a long day of temple hopping. The Golden Temple Hotel is only a short walk across the river to Pub Street and the Old Market, and it offers complimentary round-trip airport transfers.

This chic and understated resort hotel sits by the Siem Reap river, peacefully surrounded by gardens and yet less than a 10-minute walk from Pub Street. The architecture is stunning, with traditional Khmer structures in Indonesian teak, offset by elegantly modern decor. All the suites are spacious and extremely relaxing, with private furnished terraces and decadent freestanding tubs. The food is excellent, serving Khmer dishes with modern twists and French influences. Facilities include a lovely pool, a good-sized gym, and a supremely serene spa.

This hotel features some truly unique modern design, blending traditional Khmer influences with an incredibly sleek and contemporary monochrome look. Every corner of Shinta Mani Angkor & Bensley Collection Pool Villas seems made for your Insta feed, from the minimalist rooms to the chic black-tiled pool. Go for a higher category room for perks like a coffee machine, poolside access, or huge showers, or splurge on the beautiful private pool villa. Most rates include breakfast and a daily tropical fruit platter. Best of all, by staying here you will be contributing to the Shinta Mani Angkor foundation, dedicated to eradicating poverty in Cambodia.

This charming boutique hotel sits by the Siem Reap river, a little removed from the busy city center and a pleasant 20-minute walk to the nightlife.

There is also a great private pool villa available, which comfortably houses up to eight people and includes free food and drinks, butler and chef service, a private tuk-tuk driver, and more.

Several dining options are available, including a beautiful outdoor cultural dining experience with traditional dancing.

The ultra-luxurious Anantara Angkor Resort consists of just 39 spacious suites, each including an unparalleled level of personal service.

As if that wasn’t enough, the hotel facilities are also exceptional, from the restaurants to the spa and courtyard pool.

This stunning resort sits a little distance away from the hustle and bustle of Siem Reap, while still being no more than a 20-minute drive from Angkor and the nightlife. With its lush gardens and wooden villas on stilts, the whole place feels like a little slice of tropical paradise. Each villa comes with either a terrace or a private plunge pool, and all have indulgent jacuzzi tubs and gorgeously understated modern Khmer design. There are two restaurants, including an authentic Cambodian one using locally sourced ingredients – the rice is from the surrounding paddies. Two bars and a spa, all impossibly beautiful, round off the facilities.
