I stayed in one of the rooms with a balcony for several days. Some comments: -Rooms are clean and comfortable and nice for the price. -There's no restaurant on site and none too close by, but the riverside is only about a 10 minute walk. -There is wifi in the rooms but it can be spotty. My Skype was cutting... More

The hotel is in a great position: a few minutes walking from the silver pagoda, from the river and from the city centre. The staff is great! They're very friendly and helpful. Everything is clean, AC is working very well, the free wifi is great and there are 2 computers always available in the reception. My room was huge, with... More

Stayed here two nights. Transportation was arranged from the bus. Was paying around 15$ a night and the room was fine. Decent bed, shower, aircon, TV etc., so if you're interested in all of the amenities, you can have them. I'm going to echo some of the negative comments on the ownership. While the owner was outwardly friendly, there was... More

An excellent guest house a couple of blocks from the riverfront, markets and Palace. Mr. Phannak provides excellent service, great value, and keeps his place spotless. Leave your shoes in the lobby and upstairs find spacious, bright, clean rooms (ours even had a computer w/internet) and comfy beds. Staff arranged transport from the airport to avoid taxi hassles and also... More

The Fancy Guest House is a lovely hotel to stay in, very clean with tv and air con in the rooms. The front of the hotel with the rooms with balcony is a good place to drink a beer and watch the world go by in Phnom Penh. The hotel is in a good location for bars and restaurants in... More

I should have written this as soon as I left, but because I had such a hectic time afterwards, there was no time! Anyway, it was one of the first reviews I came across on trip advisor, it was one, if not the best, and it did not fail to disappoint. It's right in 'the mix' of everything, maybe slightly... More

Despite having stayed in some upmarket resorts in South East Asia, the Fancy Guesthouse was by far my favourite. What made the place for me was how friendly and genuine Mr Phannak and his family were. They took the time to chat and offered help and suggestions at times, without being pushy. The rooms themselves were clean and simple, with... More

This was my first visit to Phnom Penh, and I was lucky enough to find the Fancy Guest House. Clean, comfortable, and extremely good value, with very friendly and helpful staff (with good English!) for this newcomer to Asia. Located in a quiet street but minutes form a great market, and a short walk from the riverside area full of... More

We stayed here for three nights on our 3 month trip through South East Asia and I can honestly say that it was one of the best places we stayed at. It was quite, peaceful and the owners are really friendly and service orientated. They go out of their way to make sure that you have an enjoyable stay. The... More
