In a town that can be incredibly gougey and feel like a tourist trap Mysteres d'Angkor was an oasis. Hotel is out of town but close to Angkor Wat so that means no touts and an quicker trip to the temples. Staff were excellent, and have a group of reliable drivers and guides should you wish to use them - but never pressured us to do so. Breakfast was great and worth eating here or close by as meals were generally cheaper (and tastier) than on Pub St with a local market right outside. A much better option than most of the boutique hotels closer into town.
The rooms are in several two-stories houses around a very nice courtyard with many flowers and a pool. The hotel has a cozy personal atmosphere, due to the many plants in the court the rooms are a bit dark but since the hotel is on a side road it is quiet and very well kept.
I've stayed there in November 2006. The staff is friendly. The food is really good and authentic, though a little expensive. The location is wonderful, in a quiet trully cambodian area. It's perfect to experience something authentic rather than staying in a udge hotel on a big and impersonal boulevard.
