Elephant Mountains, Cambodia hotel rooms at the Independent

"This place is a welcome sanctuary from the hustle a bustle of Kampot. We did some day trips to kep markets and Kampot pepper farm which were easily organised by the hotel. They also easily organise a scooter for the day for us to visit bakor mountain. The hotel is about 10 minutes drive from Kampot town, however is was easy to organise for the hotel to drop you in to town and get a grab tuk tuk for about $2. The restaurant and food was great as well as the free access to the canoe which was a highlight at sunset. We had a Riverview room which has a balcony overlooking the river for and evening drink. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you are touring in Kampot. "

"The staff at The Columns are extremely nice and helpful. The included breakfast has many nice options and is well-prepared. We had both a double room on the first floor and a balcony room on second floor in our party, and we much preferred the first floor. It’s more spacious, better laid out, and has high ceilings. The second floor is not great for tall people because there are so many low ceilings, and the rooms feel cramped. "

"We had a great stay at the Rikitikitavi. Here, you’ll find comforts that can often be hard to find in Cambodia; a working and reliable air conditioning, soft fresh towels, soft fresh bed sheets, super clean bathrooms and bright lights in the bathroom so you can see what you’re doing!! The staff is very helpful and attentive and speaks English! The restaurant has amazing food and you can’t beat the service here! Also, the location is fabulous! Enjoy a walk to almost everywhere you want to go, there’s restaurants galore to choose from and if you don’t want to walk, there’s plenty of tuk tuk close by. Highly recommended! "

"The staff are all so nice and helpful! They helped me book a tour (which was so much fun, I learned a lot and had a blast) and book my bus going back to Siem Reap. It was seamless. They also helped me with my laundry even though I just gave it to them the day before I left so it was a little rushed. The restaurant staff are also so accommodating and nice. And the restaurant itself was just so airy and fresh. Thanks for a great stay!"

"Stayed in the king room with river view. It’s a little bit older than like in the photo but still good value for money. Only a short 5 minute tuk tuk into town. "
