Bambu is a classic boutique hotel with friendly staff and a welcoming smile as you return from the day. It’s a comfortable and authentic place to rest up.
The tropical planting adds to the ambience; it’s ‘not just another hotel’ with so much care and attention from the owners. You won’t find all the mod cons here, and it’s a little worn in places, but this is the most well-rounded option in Battambang.
Ideal for couples and families, you’ll often find a great atmosphere here.
Owned by English brothers, they wanted to encapsulate the historical aspects of the city with French Indochine design but provide a comfortable place to escape for a few hours between exploring. The restaurant is putting itself on the map with excellent cooking – both western and Khmer.
The Rooms
You will find 16 rooms spread across four buildings around a bar, restaurant, and pool. It’s an intimate and social space, all very pleasantly designed.
The rooms are tastefully decorated, and you’ll find a comfy bed, with large bathrooms in most bedrooms. All have a balcony or terrace of some form. We like the suite rooms – they have views across the grounds. Some standard and superior rooms on the ground floor are a little dark, so do bear this in mind. The rooms are a little dated but still charming – the hotel was built in 2010 and subsequently has had minor refreshes.
