The area
The hotel sits on Street 27 in Krong Siem Reap, within walking distance of Pub Street and the river markets while still maintaining a quieter setting. Angkor Wat is close by, and the airport bus stop is about three minutes from the hotel.
Good to know
The front desk operates 24 hours a day and can assist with arranging tours and transport, including motorcycle taxis. Complimentary breakfast, bike rentals and airport pickup are offered. Room location matters: guests note that ground-floor rooms have less privacy than upper floors.
Unfortunately we were really disappointed with this hotel.
It felt old and run down, the staff were friendly but when we asked about organising a tour of Angkor wat they seemed a little confused (will put this down to poor communication on my part rather than genuine confusion)
The rooms had lizards in them (which can be fun!), the AC was weak and overall it just felt quite unloved and poorly kept. The sheets were also dirty.
I feel this place used to be nice but without the regular upkeep required it has fallen into not a great state.
We were so disappointed we actually ended up changing hotels. Hopefully if they put some work into the rooms it will be a great hotel for future guests!
La Niche is a wonderful oasis with the kindest staff you could hope for. I have eczema so the natural pool allowed me to enjoy swimming without any flare ups as opposed to hot tubs or chlorinated pools. The water was crystal clear although it may look deceiving because of the dark bottom and sides. We ate most of our meals at the restaurant on site and the food was delicious. Pub street and river markets are close enough to walk to but far away enough to maintain its peaceful and tranquil vibe. The bed was comfortable and warm water in shower plentiful. The Wi-Fi worked well for us although we did not stream much. The front desk staff arranged our 3 days of touring the temples and set us up with Mr. Rain, our wonderful Tuk-tuk driver and guide. We spent three lovely days with him. His English was good enough for our purposes and we studied the ruins for years prior hence not needing a full-time English speaking guide. The staff is constantly clearing the grounds as the lush foliage produces leaves that fall to the ground. The pool never had debris in it as it was continuously maintained. There are mosquitos as it’s in a lush garden so reviewers complaining about that are just being whiny. Bring bug repellant if you can’t handle a mosquito bite. I have no hesitation giving La Niche my highest recommendation. And Mr. Rain our Tuk-tuk driver was awesome, warm, and kind.
A room on the ground floor completely deprives you of privacy. The curtains on the window will have to be kept closed at all times. Take only the second floor. There are a lot of mosquitoes in the evening, buy repellent. At the reception they helped me hire a motorcycle taxi; the sunset and the whole next day cost $30. The airport bus stop is three minutes from the hotel.
A very nice boutique hotel close to Angkor Wat. The pool is refreshing and clean. Food was great and staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!
The environment of this hotel is pleasant with lots of greenery, plants and shrubs all over the place. It almost felt like you're in a forest. The room was decent with basic amenities. Be mindful that there could be mosquitoes in the room due to the plants
