This place is AMAZING. The pool is a true blessing, the double room we stayed in was so comfy (amazing bed, which is a rarity around here so extra appreciated, balcony with a nice view, impeccable AC), the location is amazing (close to some truly amazing restaurants, I recommend the Khmer Surin!), the staff is truly helpful and very pleasant, the restaurant has a good variety and makes really good Cambodian food and Western food.

Someone named the hostel a "hotel with a hostel vibe" and that is totally right! Personnel is super helpful and always nice! Rooms and toilets are very clean, I think they cleaned the bathrooms many times during the day. The swimming pool and restaurant with river view is amazing. Great place to feel the vacation vibe in the middle of the capital city. We extended our stay 3 times. Hot water in the shower, lockers with the padlock, curtains.

Tha and his family were great hosts, friendly and helpful, couldn't do enough to make it a great stay! The breakfast was perfect and fresh water was provided daily! The location is great, a quiet street close to the river and town. The room is clean, comfortable and quiet with lots of space to relax, bathroom facilities and patio were all great! A safe and friendly place to stay in Siem Reap! Highly recommend for solo, couples and small family stays!

All hostels in Phnom Penh

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This hostel is perfect if you want to meet new friends and fellow travelers. It's clean and comfortable, providing a welcoming atmosphere. While it's a bit far from the main tourist attractions, getting around by tuk-tuk is easy and convenient. It's truly one of the best hostels in Phnom Penh, and I can't wait to come back! Highly recommended for social travelers!

    It is a super clean hostel, and with plenty of common spaces. However, I think it is for young backpackers with a high budget, because it is a lot of party and the hostel restaurant is expensive, I paid 8.20 USD for a breakfast that consisted of a double espresso plus two pieces of toast with avocado, tomato and one pouched egg... it is expensive.

    The hostel has a great location near the riverside, it is rather cheap and the beds are solid and not squeaky. The common bathroom was clean enough.

    The onederz hostel is the best destination a solo and small budget traveller could ask for. The hygiene is really good, the beds and bathrooms are really clean. The beds are big and there is free shampoo and soap in the bathrooms. I have been to the onederz hostel everytime I come to Phnom Penh for the week end (around 10 times). It is absolutely amazing. The rooftop is breath taking and the food is good and cheap.

    This seems like a luxury backpacker's hostel. A dream for those who want to keep the budget, but at the same time want maximum comfort. Staff speaks good English, attentive, and explain everything clearly. Everything is very clean and it seems you're in a 3 star hotel with a pool, except you share your room with other travelers
