We enjoyed our stay at the Himawari Hotel in Phnom Penh. The location is excellent. Rather than just being a normal hotel room, the accommodation provided at the Himawari is more like a small apartment. Each unit has its own a small kitchen, with a cooker, refrigerator, pots, pans, etc, etc. There is an excellent, large, Western-style supermarket across the road, where food can be bought. So if you don't want to eat out for lunch and dinner every day, then you can easily cook your own meals. A good buffet breakfast is provided in the morning in the hotel restaurant but this can get rather busy. We found lunch and dinner in the restaurant disappointing, and the bar is small. So we just went next door to the Cambodiana luxury hotel, where we were made very welcome. All in all, we had a very pleasant stay.

| "The Himawari is in a fantastic location right on the river in the heart of town. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment with our kids and it was fantastic. Very large, clean and well appointed.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only drawback was the restauraant. My advice would be to eat out! " |

| "Lovely apatment room with kitchen facilities but no need to use them as the restaurants near by were so good. It is within walking distance of some shops and restaurants but we took Tuk-tuks to most places as it was so cheap and they were always waiting outside. Our room had a balcony but we didnt overlook the river. However it was great for watching all the activity outside on the road! Overall an excellent place to stay." |

| "After reafing some of the reviews on TripAdvisor (not this website) I was a little apprehensive. However, totally unfounded. The hotel is a perfectly adequate hotel for either a family holiday or a business base. The location is excellent, the facilities are as expected for a 4 star hotel and everyone is friendly. If I had to mention a negative it would be the poor breakfast choice. Although this seems to a reflection of the standard of breakfasts across Cambodia and not this hotel." |
