I had an excellent stay at TAO Riverside Residence. The location by the riverside is perfect—close to many restaurants, attractions, and beautiful city views. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable, with strong air-conditioning and fast Wi-Fi. I especially appreciated the friendly and helpful staff who made my stay smooth and enjoyable. Overall, this is a great place for both relaxation and convenience in Phnom Penh. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great location 👌. Friendly staff .nice size rooms . Highly recommended. Smack bang on the river side local market at your door step during the weekend. Staff very friendly rooms very tidy service daily fresh and clean . Would highly recommend 👌.
Great view, spacious balcony, and a perfect spot to sit and watch everyday life unfold. The reception lady was lovely and went above and beyond to help with everything. Highly recommended!
Firstly, the room is quite weathered, although nice and well equipped. But the big problem is the noise.
On weekends there is comically loud music shaking the room from outside until 11pm, and there is loud traffic noise 24/7 - too loud for earplugs to block it out. Staff acknowledged the noise but initially refused to refund my remaining nights to let me stay somewhere else. On the second day they gave me 30 minutes to organise a new hotel and pack all my stuff, then I had to push them to get paperwork acknowledging that a refund was supposedly on the way (I got it about a week later).
It’s deceptive to not communicate the noise during the booking process. No sleep, no rest, no relaxing. I won’t even consider this place again next time.
Nice Hotel in the heart of the Riverside area. Walking distance to numerous restaurants, bars, and night markets. Every weekend hundreds of Vendors line Riverside walkway with a huge variety of food, clothing, jewelry, and other items.
Riverside rooms have a 180 degree view of the river and surrounding area. Bright billboards turn off around midnight, and with blackout curtains sleeping was easy.
Rooms are a little dated, but bed was very comfortable and daily room service was spotless. No restaurant or pool, but La Croisette across the street has great food and reasonable prices.
Staff here were fantastic! Always friendly and smiling, helpful, and courteous.
