Ompil Angkor Residence is a peaceful mid-range hotel on Taneuy Street in Wat Bo, offering generous rooms and more pool space than many hotels at its price. The rooms are Deluxe King, Deluxe Twin and Family rooms, each with garden views and a good amount of space, and the property has an indoor pool, an outdoor pool and a children’s pool, with sun loungers and a poolside bar. A spa offers massages, body scrubs and facials, and there is a restaurant and a cafe on site. The free daily manager’s reception and a free grocery shopping service are friendly touches that make it feel more like a residence than a hotel. Guests have given it a good score from a modest number of reviews. It is a sensible choice for families and groups who want space and a pool in a quiet street, within reach of the central sights.

Who it suits
Families who want an indoor and outdoor pool and a children’s pool, couples who prefer a quiet street and travellers who want good space at a fair price.
Good to know
The walk into town is longer than at hotels closer to the Old Market, so plan to use tuk-tuks in the heat. Ask about the manager’s reception when you check in, and request a garden-view room away from the road. Book ahead for the dry months, and confirm airport pick-up in advance.
Nearby and what to do
The Wat Bo area has pagodas, cafes and restaurants, including Chocolate Gardens and Jomno, and the Angkor Night Market is a short drive. The residence suits a slower stay, with a swim in the morning or late afternoon, a massage and a quiet evening meal on site, balanced with temple days booked through the front desk. The theme park shuttle and bike rentals add options for families and active travellers.
