I was staying at the big easy a street over the previous night, what a huge difference from $5 to $10 bucks. The only staff at big east seems nice was Sauvon, everyone else is either stress from working at the bar or that they have no interest in helping the staff. Tonight is my second night at Bona and I am not inly loving the location , the setting and all theor staff are very cool. Lai appears to work night shift, afternoon shift is Kimmy or Linth and I have not been here long enough to meet the cleaner n the morning staff. If you have a chance to see Phnom pemh , consider Bona as it is on a street wo bars and always soliciting tuk tuk guys. Peace out. "In Phnom Penh, I discovered a hostel this year that is only six to nine months old. It's perfectly located near the produce market and the Mekong River. For just $10 a night, you get access to the penthouse level, where you can enjoy both breathtaking sunrises and stunning sunsets. Best of all, even the shower offers panoramic views, making every moment feel a little more special."

Cockroaches in the bedroom, dirty bed sheets, strong smell of cigarettes in the room and in the lobby. Very unpleasant stay. The staff at reception is lovely and the location is good, but I had a very disappointing experience overall.

Great budget hotel. Very clean, nice staff comfortable bed/pillows, fridge , tv with Netflix access, good shower. Funny that there is wall in bathroom but it separates shower from sink only hehhe Looks like in the pictures and great value. Good air-conditioning too. Would stay again 100% when I'm in Phnom Penh. My room was on the 7th floor with a great view ! Oh and strong WiFi too and I had a quiet room :)

The hotel is quite nice and really correct for the price. The location is great, not really in the center but better for doing all the stuff around and near the park for chilling and see the fox bats flying at 6pm. The bad think is the school just in front of the hotel. They play loud music at 7 am with noisy instrument EVERY MORNING. However, we took a room with "window with view on the garden", but in fact it was a window on the corridor outside, so we can't open the curtains because everybody can have a look inside the room and it was quite dark inside but we don't ask to change the room, so our bad maybe. The pillow were really uncomfortable (hard and too thick), it is the worst part of this room. Otherwise, the shower is really good, strong pressure and lot of hot water. The breakfast was also quite good with free coffee and tea. I recommand this place if you are not too sensitiv at noise and lack of comfort with the bed :)

National Museum of Cambodia

Museums & galleries 394 m 5 min walk 4.2/5 on Google

National Museum of Cambodia is 394 m south-east of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 5 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “museums & galleries”.

The next two places under “museums & galleries” from Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) are SOSORO - Preah Srey Içanavarman Museum (700 m) and Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (2.4 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

The National Museum of Cambodia occupies a 1920s building designed in the style of a Khmer temple, located on Preah Ang Eng Street in Phnom Penh. Inside, the museum displays traditional Khmer art, religious artifacts, and sculptures spanning Cambodia's history. The collection includes pieces preserved specifically to protect them from damage, such as artifacts not kept at temples in Siem Reap. Among its notable holdings is a bell that came from the Cathedral of Phnom Penh before its destruction during the Khmer Rouge period. A central courtyard garden provides a quiet space within the museum grounds.

Visitors consistently praise the architecture and the peaceful atmosphere of the building and grounds. Many find the exhibitions well organized and appreciate learning about Cambodian culture and history through the displays, particularly the Angkor-era sculptures. The museum shop sells high-quality gifts with staff who explain the meanings of items, though prices are noticeably higher than elsewhere. Some visitors note that while the museum is informative, the information cards accompanying displays are occasionally sparse or can contain interpretative inconsistencies.

The museum is open daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Admission is 4500 riel (approximately 10 USD). Most visitors spend around an hour exploring the collections. It suits anyone seeking an introduction to Khmer history and culture in a contemplative setting, and works well as a cultural primer before visiting temples elsewhere in Cambodia.

Pizza 4P's 313 Quayside

Restaurants 401 m 5 min walk 4.9/5 on Google

Pizza 4P's 313 Quayside is 401 m east of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 5 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “restaurants”.

The next two places under “restaurants” from Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) are 306 Khema Steakhouse (1.7 km) and Wild Phnom Penh (1.9 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

Pizza 4P's occupies a riverside spot on Preah Sisowath Quay, with indoor seating on the second floor offering an elevated view over the water, as well as outdoor tables for those who prefer to sit by the street. The kitchen centres on wood-fired pizza, with the four-cheese version singled out by regulars, alongside a broader menu of Japanese-influenced dishes typical of the Pizza 4P's brand. The dining room is air-conditioned, with a visible pizza oven and a bar counter, and the setting works equally for a casual meal, a family dinner, or an evening with friends.

Visitors consistently mention the quality and consistency of the pizza, along with attentive, polished service that includes small touches like complimentary lemongrass tea, water, and fresh towels before meals. The riverside sunset view, especially from window seats, comes up often as a highlight, along with the pleasant contrast between the warmth of the pizza oven and the comfortable indoor setting. The main caveats raised are that prices sit on the higher side for Phnom Penh, and that the location gets very busy on weekends, when car-free days on the riverside can mean a longer walk in from where tuk tuks drop passengers.

Given the volume of praise for consistency and the busy weekend crowds, reservations are advisable, particularly for dinner or weekend visits when the restaurant fills up quickly. The place suits couples looking for a sunset dinner, families, and groups of friends, and it works for both a relaxed lunch and a fuller evening meal, open daily from late morning until 11pm.

Riverside

Parks & nature 443 m 6 min walk 4.6/5 on Google

Riverside is 443 m north-east of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 6 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “parks & nature”.

The next two places under “parks & nature” from Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) are Royal Palace Park (659 m) and Wat Botum Park (993 m), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

Riverside is a promenade along the Mekong River in central Phnom Penh, running beside Angkor Street. It functions as a public space where locals and visitors gather to walk, eat, and watch the water. The area stretches along the riverbank with colonial architecture visible alongside modern development. Boat tours operate from here, offering views from the water itself.

Visitors consistently praise the riverside for its evening atmosphere, particularly the cool breeze off the Mekong and sunset views. Many describe it as a good place to experience local life, observe birds being fed, and sample street food. However, opinions divide sharply on the overall experience. Some find it genuinely peaceful and beautiful, especially outside peak hours. Others report that the space has become dominated by food stalls, vendors, and crowds, feeling more like a night market than a relaxation spot. Several visitors note it can be very hot during the day and suggest going in early morning or evening instead. A few mention that while pleasant, the riverside would benefit from more vegetation along the banks.

The riverside works best as an evening destination, particularly in the cooler months. Vehicles are typically restricted on weekends, making the promenade more walkable then. If you're seeking a peaceful natural experience, arrive early in the morning or just before sunset to avoid peak crowds. Those interested in local culture and street food will find plenty; those seeking quiet greenery should manage expectations. The space suits casual strolls and people-watching more than sustained relaxation in nature.

BODIA SPA Riverside

Spa & wellness 448 m 6 min walk 4.8/5 on Google

BODIA SPA Riverside is 448 m east of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 6 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “spa & wellness”.

The other place under “spa & wellness” within reach of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) is Bodia Spa BKK1 Phnom Penh (2.1 km).

Set on a corner of Samdach Sothearos Boulevard by the riverside, this spa pairs treatment rooms with a retail counter of its own skincare and body-care products. Visitors mention large, well-appointed rooms, and treatments span coconut oil full-body massage, aromatherapy massages of varying lengths, and combination head, neck and back work. The organic-leaning products used during treatments are also sold on site for those who want to take something home.

Guests consistently praise the therapists as skilled, attentive and professional, with several naming staff members who tailored pressure to request. The quality of the massage oils and skincare products comes up repeatedly as a point of distinction rather than an afterthought. Service is described as warm from arrival, and more than one visitor reported being accommodated without a prior booking, including on a busy day, which suggests some flexibility even if reservations are the safer route. No recurring complaints appear in the feedback gathered.

The spa is open daily from 10 in the morning until 11 at night, making it workable for a pre-dinner unwind or a late evening reset after a day of sightseeing along the riverside. It suits travellers who want a proper massage rather than a quick foot rub, and anyone curious about Cambodian-made skincare lines worth carrying home. Booking ahead is advisable for popular slots or longer treatments such as the 90-minute aromatherapy option, though walk-ins have reportedly been welcomed when rooms are free. Address is on Street 178 at its corner with Samdach Sothearos Boulevard, an easy stop for those already near the riverfront.

Cafés & bakeries 562 m 7 min walk 4.7/5 on Google

TUBE Coffee Riverside is 562 m east of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 7 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “cafés & bakeries”.

The next two places under “cafés & bakeries” from Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) are Moma Bakehouse & Bistro (2.3 km) and Siso Bakery (2.6 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

TUBE Coffee Riverside sits on Preah Sisowath Quay with the Tonlé Sap River directly across the road. The café spans two levels and draws crowds for its aesthetic design and riverside views. The menu centres on coffee and fresh juice drinks, with complementary hot and cold water. Service generally moves quickly even when busy, and air conditioning is reliable.

Visitors consistently praise the location, atmosphere, and design. The riverside setting and relaxed ambiance make it popular for both morning coffee and evening drinks before sunset. Coffee drinks, particularly the iced vanilla lattes, receive frequent mention as high quality. However, reviews split on the juice offerings: some find the passion fruit juice too sharp, while others note that drinks appear made with syrups rather than fresh fruit, which affects value given the café's prime location and pricing. Crowding is a genuine concern. Weekend afternoons and evening hours draw heavy traffic, making seating difficult to find despite the spacious two-level layout.

The café opens at 6:30 AM daily and closes at 11:00 PM (closed Sundays according to Google Maps). Visit early morning or mid-afternoon on weekdays if you prefer fewer crowds. The riverside location makes it worth planning ahead rather than dropping in at peak times. It suits those prioritising ambiance and location over experimental drinks, and works well for coffee enthusiasts and those wanting a comfortable spot to watch the river.

Royal Palace Park

Parks & nature 659 m 8 min walk 4.5/5 on Google

Royal Palace Park is 659 m south-east of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 8 minutes on foot. It is among the three closest places to the hotel under “parks & nature”.

The next two places under “parks & nature” from Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) are Riverside (443 m) and Wat Botum Park (993 m), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

Royal Palace Park in central Phnom Penh is a riverside green space offering views of the Royal Palace and its surrounding architecture, including the Moonlight Pavilion. The park is open twenty-four hours and free to enter. Visitors find pleasant walking paths through maintained gardens, riverside seating areas, and good vantage points for photography. The atmosphere shifts noticeably between day and night: mornings attract those seeking sunrise views and quiet walks, while late afternoon and evening bring families, street food vendors, and performers who gather along the river walk.

Guests consistently praise the park's cleanliness, peaceful setting, and escape from city noise. The views of the royal architecture, especially at sunset, are frequently mentioned as a highlight. The community atmosphere during evening hours appeals to many visitors, with multiple food stalls and activities creating a lively social space. One practical note: some visitors find the adjacent Royal Palace complex itself (with its ticketed areas and temple buildings) worth visiting, though parts may be under construction. Photography is not permitted inside the temples or palace buildings, which some visitors noted as a limitation.

The park suits travellers looking for a free, accessible place to relax or walk. Morning visits work well for those chasing sunrise light and quieter surroundings. Evening visits offer more activity and food options, and the river breezes make it comfortable during hot afternoons. No special preparation is needed for the park itself, though if you plan to enter the paid Royal Palace complex, bring cash for the entrance fee and expect temple photography restrictions.

Royal Palace of Cambodia

Sights 671 m 8 min walk 4.3/5 on Google

Royal Palace of Cambodia is 671 m south-east of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 8 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “sights”.

The next two places under “sights” from Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) are Ministry of Economy and Finance of Cambodia (1.2 km) and Independence Monument (1.3 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

The Royal Palace of Cambodia is an ornate walled complex in central Phnom Penh, built in the 1860s and rebuilt in the 1920s. Visitors walk through courtyards and pavilions decorated in classical Khmer style, including the Silver Pagoda with its distinctive floor. The king's private residence sits within the grounds but is not open to the public. The compound occupies prime riverfront land between the Mekong and Tonlé Sap rivers.

Guests consistently praise the architecture, gardens, and sense of stepping back in time through well-preserved buildings and grounds. The entrance fee of around USD 10 is generally accepted as fair value, though some visitors question the cost. A notable concern is visitor management: some guests report being rushed through if using a guide, and once you move to a different area, re-entry is not permitted, which can frustrate those wanting to linger or backtrack. Staff professionalism is usually mentioned positively, though isolated incidents of overly strict enforcement around photography rules have been reported.

The palace opens daily from 8 am to 5 pm, though there is a midday break from 11 am to 2 pm. Dress codes are enforced—shoulders and knees must be covered, hats are not allowed, and shoes must be removed inside buildings and temples. Early morning visits on weekends tend to be less crowded. Plan at least two hours if exploring without a guide, and longer if you want to photograph the buildings carefully. It suits visitors interested in Cambodian royal history and Khmer architecture, though those seeking a leisurely, self-paced experience may find the restrictions limiting.

Central Market

Markets 671 m 8 min walk 4.4/5 on Google

Central Market is 671 m west of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) — about 8 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “markets”.

The other place under “markets” within reach of Bona Hotel (Hostel, Private Rooms, and Restaurant) is Trapang Tloeung Market (9.1 km).

The Central Market is a covered marketplace in central Phnom Penh housed in a distinctive Art Deco building with a 26-metre-high central dome and four arching corridors branching diagonally across the block. Built in 1937, it remains a working market where visitors find fresh produce, clothing, toys, jewelry, souvenirs, and services like haircuts and manicures. The layout is expansive and maze-like, with countless stalls crowded into the hallways.

Visitors consistently praise the variety of goods available and the affordability of prices, which remain negotiable. Many note that staff are helpful when shoppers appear lost, and several appreciate the building's distinctive architecture and local atmosphere. However, reviews also flag practical concerns: ventilation is poor and the interior becomes notably warm, many stalls stock similar items, and goods generally lack price tags, requiring haggling. Some visitors find the experience worthwhile primarily for the building itself rather than the shopping.

The market operates daily from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Arrive early if you prefer cooler conditions and smaller crowds. This suits travellers seeking an authentic local market experience and those interested in Art Deco architecture, though it is less ideal if you dislike bargaining or heat. Allow time to navigate the corridors without rushing; a casual wander works better here than targeted shopping, since finding specific items can be difficult.
