Koh Rong Ocean View Hotel is a hotel on Koh Rong Samloem, Cambodia, made up of chalet-style bungalows set on a hillside. Rooms come with air conditioning, a refrigerator, hot water and a large balcony with an ocean view, and the glass structure of the buildings means daylight comes in from all sides. Rooms are wide enough to sleep four or five people, so a single room can take a small group.
The hillside setting puts the hotel above the noise, with only a short walk down to it, and the property is a quiet place to rest. The owner and staff are on hand and helpful with things like extending a stay. There is no reception and no daily housekeeping, so guests who want a new towel each day or a staffed front desk should plan around that.
Getting to the rooms takes some effort: the walk up is steep on an unpaved track, and the bungalows are reached by ladder-type stairs, which rules the prop...

The area
The hotel sits at M79F+PP6, Preah Sihanouk, on the island of Koh Rong Samloem in Cambodia. It stands up a hill, away from the noise below, with only a small walk down if you want to be closer to it. The road up to the hotel is unpaved and steep, and can be slippery, particularly after dark.
Good to know
There is no reception at the property, and no daily housekeeping, so towels are not changed each day. Check-out times have been communicated inconsistently: notices in the room state 11am while guests have been asked to leave at 10am, so confirm the time with the owner on arrival. Access is by a steep uphill walk and ladder-type stairs into the bungalows, which is not workable for guests with mobility difficulties. Power outages occur, sometimes for several hours during the day, affecting lights, air conditioning and WiFi.
I dont expect much as it is located on island, but it is not a comfortable and convenient place for relaxing vacation. The road to the hotel is uphill without proper road, can be slippery and dangerous especially at night time. The room isn't clean and most facilities in the room are very old, including sink, bathtub, hairdryer, shower head, no hot water, and even loose door. We were told to check out at 10am when the notice in the room clearly stated 11am. There is no reception too. Not recommended for people who looking for a relaxing trip.
Where to start, OK the good. AC works, refrigerator works, hot water and ocean view from the large balcony. Negatives, the structure is glass which heats up in the day even with ac on,if the power goes off which it did frequently its dam hot. WiFi is weak. Room is old and dirty. Roof leaks alot when it rains. Steps up to the room like a ladder. Walk up to the chalets steep, so any mobility issues forget it. It's $34 a night, probably the worst value place in Cambodia. I would not recommend this place.
Great location, though a little steep of a walk. Not for disabled people (ladder type stairs to get into bungalow). Also if you're pressed about wifi and AC, be mindful it isn't reliable. We had ours go out each day (no lights, air conditioning, wifi) every day of our 5 night stay (usually it's fine overnight but during the day it can be out for hours.) We usually were out and about so it didn't dampen things too much. No housekeeping or reception so if you're picky about getting a new towel each day then it probably isn't for you. No tv as advertised so hopefully they update that. My main concern: there's no lock for the door and the safe doesn't work so your stuff is vulnerable.
The rooms are clean. Wide enough to contain more people in one room, ex. A single room can contain 4 people to 5 people to stay in. Good service. The most interesting one is, a quiet place for people to relax. Testing here, I can say you won't regret paying the money to rest
Was a great stay. The owner/staff was really nice and he was very helpful in extending my stay. Ac was good and location was great. Its up a hill so you are a bit away from the noise if you want to be. Only a small walk if you don't. Would recommend.
