Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor Recognized in Travel + Leisure Awards
SIEM REAP, Cambodia (May 6, 2025) — Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor, the luxury heritage hotel near the famed ancient Khmer archeological sites in Cambodia, has once again been named one of the world’s ‘500 Best Hotels’ by the influential U.S.-based magazine Travel + Leisure.

This honour, regarded as one of the most coveted distinctions in the global hospitality industry, draws on reader input. The award is part of the industry-leading travel magazine’s ‘World’s Best Awards’. Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor was featured on this prestigious list for a fourth consecutive year.
“An extraordinary setting. Design that feels both unexpected and of-the-moment. Service that goes above and beyond. When a hotel feels truly exceptional, our readers are slow to forget,” Travel + Leisure noted when introducing this year’s chosen hotels.
A Historical Gem Since 1932
Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor originally opened in 1932. It served as a rest stop for archeologists and adventurers exploring the ancient kingdom of Angkor Wat. This hotel showcases a stunning expression of 1930s French Art Deco style. The beautifully refined rooms, suites, and villas blend old-world charm with Cambodian influences and modern details.
Curated Experiences
Last year, the hotel launched a ‘Curated Journeys’ menu featuring unique excursions. Guests can enjoy a ‘Bespoke Temple Dinner’ served by candlelight at the Angkor temple complex. The venture includes the ‘Lost Civilisations of Angkor by Vespa’ tour, where the ancient world meets the contemporary. Additionally, the ‘Siem Reap Art Tour’ offers an inside look at the vibrant art scene in the city.
Renovation and Modern Luxury
Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor features 119 guest rooms and suites, nearly all of which underwent extensive refurbishment. This meticulous three-year renovation project concluded in June 2022. One of the hotel's most notable attributes—the classic metal and timber elevator in the lobby—remains intact. Guests can also enjoy the vintage ambiance of The Elephant Bar. The hotel’s on-site ‘Resort Programme’ highlights heritage and traditions.
