I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which is a true oasis in the heart of the city. The staff provided exceptional service, and the property was clean and inviting. I loved lounging by the pool and enjoying delicious meals. However, there were a few drawbacks, such as noisy disturbances from the top floor and some inconsistencies in customer service that could be improved.

Hotel 252 is a tranquil retreat in the bustle of Phnom Penh, offering spacious, clean rooms and an inviting pool area. The staff truly goes above and beyond, making every guest feel at home. The dining options stand out, especially the breakfast and diverse menu. However, if I had to nitpick, the additional charge for the masseuse could be considered a downside, though it's worth it for the pampering experience.

This hotel is a true oasis in the bustling city of Phnom Penh, featuring a beautiful saltwater swimming pool surrounded by lush greenery. The dining experience is delightful with a varied menu that doesn't disappoint. The friendly service from the owners and the staff adds a personal touch that makes the stay even more enjoyable. While I couldn't stay overnight, the ambiance and amenities make it tempting for a longer visit. Be aware that the pool access requires a small order from the restaurant, but with such great food, you won't mind at all.
