Park Hyatt, Siem Reap Cambodia, Siem Reap, North & East

The Park Hyatt (formerly know as the Hotel De La Paix) is Siem Reap'€s premier lifestyle hotel. Indulgently luxurious, supremely comfortable and stylish, the hotel stands alone in its genre within Cambodia.

With 107 rooms and suites, the five-star hotel is alive with creativity at every glance. Like a stream of stylised thought, each space has been carefully considered and measured.

Rooms are split into five categories: Deluxe, Courtyard, Deluxe Suite, Pool Suite and Spa Suite. All have facilities to indulge and delight. King-size beds with comfy cushions and pillows, lounge sofas and day beds ensure great slumber time. Terrazzo bath tubs, rain showers, satellite television and free wireless internet are standard in all rooms. Ipods and mini JBL dome sound systems give an edge to the entertainment options.

The hotel has much more to offer than just rooms. Dining and relaxing are also made a feature here. The Arts Lounge€ showcases changing displays of works from Cambodian and international artists. The futuristic space is great for relaxing, with tables and cushions and a view of life passing by. Food is served throughout the day, as are drinks and a great selection of cocktails. The hotel has restaurants serving both European cuisine prepared to exceptional standards and gourmet Cambodian cuisine.

An unusually shaped swimming pool is large enough for serious swimming and has plenty of cavernous spaces for just wallowing and cooling down. Cushioned salas with day beds surround the pool and food and drinks are served all day. There is a well equipped fitness centre and gym. The Spa Indochine offers indulgent treatments and therapies in sublime surroundings.

The striking, modern design will not appeal to everyone but anyone interested in modern lifestyle hotels will find the Park Hyatt a real treat.
