4/5

I had a very pleasant stay overall. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and felt more premium than many hotels in a similar price range. The gym was excellent and genuinely one of the best hotel gyms I came across during my travels, with a wide range of equipment for a proper workout. The facilities, including the jacuzzi and sauna, were also a welcome addition. The location may not suit everyone, as it is a little further from the city centre, cafés and some of the main attractions. However, this does make it quieter and more relaxing for those looking to escape the bustle of town. The staff were professional, efficient and helpful. On a personal note, having travelled around Cambodia, I found myself missing some of the warmth, smiles and informal friendliness that I had become accustomed to elsewhere in the country. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the service, it simply felt a little more formal in style, more akin to Western hospitality than the uniquely warm Southeast Asian hospitality I had experienced during the rest of my trip. My only suggestion would be regarding the in room coffee. Given the quality of the rooms and facilities, a proper coffee machine would feel more in keeping with the hotel’s otherwise premium standard than instant coffee sachets. Overall, a comfortable and well equipped hotel with excellent fitness and facilities, particularly suited to guests seeking a quieter stay. Thank you.

Superb stay. Close to everything a tourist wants to do. We would reach most attraction in 5-7 mins or less on scooty. We just had a lovely time at this hotel and their infinit pool was good too and the best part was we stayed two nights under two different bookings so we recd a 15 min foot massage free twice where this one therapist was AMAZING! She did once for me and once for my husband. Overall super stay super hotel

An oasis of tranquility in busy Phnom Penh. It's a 20 minute ride to the center, but the facilities are incredible. Ley Ley at the front desk was very welcoming and assigned a wonderful room with views of the skyline and the river, a great bathtub with city views, and a very comfortable bed. The pool is exceptional, as are the sauna and jacuzzi facilities.The breakfast buffet was basic and not a great value. Overall, Sun and Moon Riverside costs a bit more than many hotels, but it's worth it. A memorable stay!

During my recent stay at Sun and Moon Riverside Hotel, there were some initial hiccups during my check-in. However, what truly impressed me was how quickly and professionally the matter was resolved by Mr Christopher Huang, the Assistant General Manager. Christopher’s friendliness, calm demeanour, and hands-on approach immediately turned the situation around. He took the time to listen, addressed the issue promptly, and ensured that my stay got off on the right footing. His genuine care and attentiveness made me feel valued as a guest. What sets Christopher apart is his visible presence and willingness to personally engage with guests rather than remaining behind the scenes. His professionalism, approachability, and commitment to guest satisfaction embody the true spirit of hospitality. A well-deserved recognition for a hospitality professional who goes above and beyond for his guests.

5/5

Sun & Moon Riverside Hotel in Phnom Penh was unexpectedly good — the kind of place you book hoping it’s decent, then realize you actually made a great call. From the moment I arrived, the staff set the tone: genuinely friendly, quick to help, and consistently professional without feeling robotic. Whether it was directions, transport, or small requests, they handled everything smoothly and with a good attitude. Comfort is the headline here. The room felt properly “5-star” in the ways that matter: solid bedding, good soundproofing, strong air conditioning, and a layout that doesn’t feel cramped or cheap. Everything was clean, well maintained, and clearly managed with attention to detail. It’s the sort of hotel where you can reset after a chaotic day in the city and actually sleep well. Location-wise, being by the riverside is a real advantage. It’s easy to get around, and you’re close enough to the action to enjoy Phnom Penh, but not stuck in constant noise. It’s also a nice area for an evening walk or to grab something nearby without planning a full mission. What impressed me most was the consistency: no weak links. Check-in was efficient, staff were helpful throughout, and the overall vibe felt calm and well-run. You don’t get that everywhere, even when the hotel claims it’s upscale. If you want a comfortable, hassle-free stay in Phnom Penh with service that actually feels human, Sun & Moon Riverside is a strong choice. Honestly, everything felt spot-on.

Sabay Cinema

Cinema 1.8 km 23 min walk 4.3/5 on Google

Sabay Cinema is 1.8 km north of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 23 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “cinema”.

The other place under “cinema” within reach of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel is Prime Cineplex Samai Square (6.9 km).

Sabay Cinema occupies the second floor of AEON Mall Phnom Penh on Samdach Sothearos Boulevard, a central location near the riverside and markets. The venue screens films across multiple halls with 3D capability and online ticket booking via app. It draws a steady crowd of students and local moviegoers.

Visitors consistently report that ticket prices are inexpensive, and online booking is straightforward. Seats have adequate legroom, though reviewers note the cinema is older with smaller screens than newer facilities. The main complaints centre on concessions: drinks advertised as 32 ounces are actually 22 ounces at the advertised price; snack portions are small relative to cost; and 3D glasses incur a 50-cent surcharge per person rather than being included in ticket pricing. One visitor also flagged that some guests talk through films. Another reviewer praised the VIP experience, mentioning complimentary coffee and snacks in a lounge, though this may not reflect the standard experience.

Go if you want affordable tickets and are willing to overlook older facilities. The location suits those already in the mall or nearby. Check drink sizes and prices before ordering concessions, and clarify what is included in your ticket type—particularly for 3D screenings—at purchase rather than arrival. Online booking helps avoid queues.

Kinin

Restaurants 1.8 km 23 min walk 4.6/5 on Google

Kinin is 1.8 km north-west of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 23 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “restaurants”.

The next two places under “restaurants” from SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel are Xiao Ge Hot Pot - Boeung Keng Kang (2.0 km) and Wild Phnom Penh (2.2 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

Kinin is a garden restaurant in a restored colonial building on Street 123, near Tuol Tompoung Market. Visitors enter what feels like a private jungle retreat—a leafy courtyard with vibrant greenery and cozy decor set into the busy streets of Phnom Penh. The menu blends Khmer and Western dishes, from spicy beef rice to pasta with caramelized pork belly and beer-battered tofu. The drinks menu includes cocktails like pomelo mojitos and Bloody Marys, plus local brews and kombucha.

Diners consistently praise the food as fresh and well-executed, the service as attentive, and the garden setting as a genuine escape from the city outside. The atmosphere draws particular mention—the music mix and overall vibe create what visitors describe as a soothing, date-worthy space. One diner noted that drinks occasionally miss the mark, and prices are genuinely modest (around ten dollars for a full meal with a drink). The restaurant does fill quickly, especially on weekends and holidays, so booking ahead is advisable if you want a preferred table.

The restaurant closes Mondays and opens from 11 AM on other days. It suits anyone seeking a calm, garden-set meal that doesn't sacrifice either Khmer authenticity or Western familiarity. The value—good food, careful service, and that particular sense of discovery—draws both couples and solo diners looking to pause in central Phnom Penh.

AEON Mall Phnom Penh

Shopping 1.9 km 23 min walk 4.4/5 on Google

AEON Mall Phnom Penh is 1.9 km north of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 23 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “shopping”.

The next two places under “shopping” from SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel are Vattanac Capital (4.9 km) and AEON Mall Sen Sok City (9.1 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

AEON Mall Phnom Penh is a modern, air-conditioned shopping centre on Samdach Sothearos Boulevard offering a mix of international and local retail brands across multiple floors. The mall houses a supermarket, fashion and lifestyle shops, a cinema, and extensive dining options ranging from a food court to full-service restaurants serving Cambodian, Asian, and international cuisine. The space is designed to be spacious and well-lit, with controlled temperature throughout.

Visitors consistently praise the mall's cleanliness, organization, and the variety of dining choices available. Many note that the restaurant floor differs from typical food courts, offering a selection of proper restaurants rather than just counter service. The mall serves both as a shopping destination and as a place to escape the heat and spend several hours browsing and eating, even for those without serious shopping intentions. Some visitors appreciate it as a window into local weekend leisure habits. Reviews are largely positive, though the mall is recognized as a commercial space rather than a tourist attraction.

The mall operates from 9 AM to 10 PM daily. It suits visitors looking for familiar international brands alongside local options, families seeking air-conditioned entertainment and dining, and anyone wanting to experience how residents spend their leisure time. Allow several hours if you plan to shop, eat, and explore the various floors.

Moma Bakehouse & Bistro

Cafés & bakeries 1.9 km 24 min walk 4.7/5 on Google

Moma Bakehouse & Bistro is 1.9 km north of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 24 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “cafés & bakeries”.

The next two places under “cafés & bakeries” from SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel are Siso Bakery (2.7 km) and TUBE Coffee Riverside (3.9 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

Moma Bakehouse & Bistro sits on Street 370 and functions as both a working bakery and a café with seating upstairs. Visitors find a selection of pastries, croissants, and baked goods on display, alongside a menu featuring brunch items and full cooked breakfasts. The space is described as clean and well-appointed, with strong air conditioning—a practical benefit in Phnom Penh's heat. The interior aesthetic draws consistent mention, with guests noting a relaxing, cozy atmosphere suited to working or spending time with friends.

Reviewers praise the quality and portion sizes of the food and pastries, with several highlighting the blueberry pancakes and the full English breakfast as standouts. Staff are reported to be friendly, welcoming, and communicative in English, and the ordering process—whether in-person or online—runs smoothly. The main reservation across reviews is price: the café operates at the higher end of the market, though most visitors feel the quality justifies the cost. One caveat appears around the Dubai chocolate items, which some find excessively sweet. The sausages in the English breakfast have drawn mixed reactions from different guests.

The café opens early at 6:00 AM on weekdays and Saturdays, making it a viable breakfast stop. It remains open until 10:00 PM most days. It suits those seeking a comfortable environment with reliable quality over budget dining, and works equally well for a quick pastry, a full breakfast, or settling in with coffee and a laptop.

Restaurants 2.0 km 25 min walk 4.7/5 on Google

Xiao Ge Hot Pot - Boeung Keng Kang is 2.0 km north of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 25 minutes on foot. It is among the three closest places to the hotel under “restaurants”.

The next two places under “restaurants” from SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel are Kinin (1.8 km) and Wild Phnom Penh (2.2 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

This is a hot pot restaurant in the Boeung Keng Kang district on Street 360. Diners cook thin-sliced meat, seafood, and vegetables in broths at their table—the restaurant offers several soup bases including collagen and Sichuan options. The space is air-conditioned and described by visitors as spacious and clean. Hot pot is priced affordably, with buffet options cited at around eight dollars per person that include pork, beef, black chicken, shrimp, and meatballs.

Visitors consistently praise the freshness of meat and vegetables, the speed of service, and the friendly staff. Soup quality stands out as a strength, particularly the collagen and Sichuan broths. The main complaints centre on practical matters: the cumulative smell of hot pot cooking lingers on clothes, and ventilation or air purification could be improved. Some English-speaking visitors have struggled with the menu—staff speak limited English and no English-language menu is available, which occasionally leads to communication difficulties when ordering. One reviewer noted the side-dish selection felt limited for those avoiding pork and beef.

The restaurant opens daily from 11 AM to 9:30 PM (closed Sundays). It sits in a busy area near schools, offices, and markets, so expect crowds at lunch and dinner times. The location suits groups of friends or colleagues eating together, and appeals particularly to students and office workers. If you speak limited Cambodian or Chinese, pointing or using translation tools may help with ordering.

Bodia Spa BKK1 Phnom Penh

Spa & wellness 2.1 km 27 min walk 4.8/5 on Google

Bodia Spa BKK1 Phnom Penh is 2.1 km north of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 27 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “spa & wellness”.

The other place under “spa & wellness” within reach of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel is BODIA SPA Riverside (4.0 km).

Set across three floors in BKK1, this spa offers private cabins that can host solo visitors or small groups of up to three, each with its own shower and a choice of massage oils. The lobby doubles as a small retail area for bath and wellness products, and the overall design is polished and calm, with staff greeting guests with tea and a foot cleaning before treatments begin.

Reviews are largely consistent in praising the therapists, who are described as attentive and skilled at adjusting pressure during the massage, and the reception staff, who are called warm and caring. Guests repeatedly mention the hot shower and product range afterward as a nice touch, and several note that promotions are sometimes available on certain massages during set daytime hours. Not every visitor is equally impressed: one review found the herbal compress massage pleasant but unremarkable, and felt the pricing was a little steep for what was delivered, while another wished for less oil during the body massage. So expectations should be tuned toward a comfortable, well-run experience rather than something extraordinary every time.

The spa is open daily from 10am to 11pm, which makes it workable for both an afternoon break and an evening wind-down after a day of sightseeing. Booking ahead is worth doing, as at least one guest arranged their appointment the day before and benefited from a time-limited discount. It suits travellers looking for a reliable, attractively designed spa in BKK1 for a massage or short pampering session, though those seeking bargain pricing or an unconventional treatment menu may want to weigh the cost against the fairly standard offerings.

Wild Phnom Penh

Restaurants 2.2 km 28 min walk 4.8/5 on Google

Wild Phnom Penh is 2.2 km north of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 28 minutes on foot. It is among the three closest places to the hotel under “restaurants”.

The next two places under “restaurants” from SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel are Kinin (1.8 km) and Xiao Ge Hot Pot - Boeung Keng Kang (2.0 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

Tucked down a small alleyway at 13Y St 830, this all-day spot mixes an indoor house area with outdoor seating and greenery, giving it a garden-like, unhurried feel rather than a typical street-side café. The menu runs from snacks and spring rolls to cocktails, coffee, and matcha, with a kitchen that leans toward Western-influenced takes on Cambodian staples. Toys are kept on hand for guests travelling with babies, and there is no dedicated parking, given the narrow lane it sits on.

Visitors return repeatedly for the spring rolls, especially a burrata version, and for breakfast dishes like avocado toast, which several reviewers rate above other options in the city. Cocktails, including a spicy mango drink, get consistent praise, and staff are described again and again as attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming. The recurring caveats are the coffee and matcha, which a few guests found underwhelming compared to Phnom Penh's growing café scene, and prices that are noted as on the higher side for the city. Ventilation indoors can also struggle in humid weather, since fans alone were not enough for one visitor when it rained and outdoor seating was not an option.

Go for a relaxed breakfast or lunch when you want a calmer, garden-adjacent setting away from city noise, or for an evening cocktail with spring rolls if heat is welcome on the palate. It suits couples on a date, small groups of friends, or informal work meetings, and the restaurant explicitly discourages loud noise and smoking to protect that quiet. Since it is in an alley with no parking, arriving on foot, by tuk-tuk, or by app-based ride is more practical, and it is worth knowing in advance that specialty drinks are a stronger bet here than coffee.

306 Khema Steakhouse

Restaurants 2.4 km 30 min walk 4.6/5 on Google

306 Khema Steakhouse is 2.4 km north of SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel — about 30 minutes on foot.

The next two places under “restaurants” from SUN & MOON, Riverside Hotel are Kinin (1.8 km) and Xiao Ge Hot Pot - Boeung Keng Kang (2.0 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

306 Khema Steakhouse sits on Street 306 in Phnom Penh and specializes in premium Wagyu beef. The restaurant operates under multiple identities—it functions simultaneously as a steakhouse, sushi restaurant, and bakery—though the focus remains on meat. The space is described as intimate and boutique-style, with an on-site dry-aging facility. Beyond steaks, the menu includes burgers served with fries and other cuts like T-bone Angus and lamb chops.

Visitors consistently praise the quality of the meat itself, noting it is fresh and cooked to the specification ordered. The Kampot pepper sauce appears frequently in feedback as a distinctive local addition that complements the Wagyu well. Service receives strong marks, with staff described as calm, friendly, and attentive. Some diners note the experience feels somewhat incomplete—one visitor mentioned being served steak with no sides and seeing sourdough images on walls but no bread offered, despite the bakery operations. Another remarked on the confusion created by the restaurant's multiple trading names and identities. The regular burger offerings are mentioned favorably, though they are not the primary draw.

The restaurant opens daily from 11:45 AM to 9:30 PM, Monday through Saturday (Sunday hours are not listed). It suits diners seeking a quieter, high-end setting focused on premium beef rather than a social dining experience. The lack of consistent sides or bread service suggests going with clear expectations about what you are ordering. Given the boutique scale and specialization, booking ahead is likely wise, particularly for groups or special occasions.
