City Center hotels & places to stay

Had a decent stay at lucky hostel. Battambang city centre is small so its easy to get around on foot from the hostel - or at least we thought so! Looks recently renovated and the rooms are pretty new and clean so feels like a hotel. Stayed in both fan with shared bathroom and a/c private bathroom and both were nice just depends on your budget. There's even a pool to take a dip in. Staff were super friendly and helpful, although it would be great if they could be mindful of noise before 7am. I'm an early riser but still like a bit of peace! Recommend this place to all.

Stayed for 1 night. Single room without breakfast $6. + Very close to the city center. Big room with aircon and bathroom. They provide towels soap and thooth brushes. - Location is not very inviting though. Blanket was dirty, bathroom stinks and wifi connection was slow, weak, disconnected all the time. Some of the staff don't speak English at all. There are for sure better places to stay for that price.

The guesthouse is in a great location, right next to a delicious restaurant where you can also take a cooking class. You are about 3 minutes away from the market and some other great cafes and restaurants. The room was extremely clean and the bathroom was well kept. Would highly recommend. Staff was also very kind! PS. Not apart of the room but we had an amazing tuk-tuk driver who gave us a tour around the city, he was so helpful and informative, we started with one day and ended up hanging out with him for two days! If anyone wants a driver who is authentic and not trying to hassle you for every penny along with someone to just really help show you Battambang, his name is Mr. Sophat 085-651-731 or 031 4 137 137.

First of all, I'm probably the first person to book this place through Agoda which is why the front desk has no idea at all as to what is "Agoda"! They didn't check for updates on booking even though I booked a room almost a month back!! I told the reception I've booked and paid for a double room but was given a twins room (with only 1 towel) and the lift is not even working! For the price paid, I did not arrive with high expectations and the reason I chose this guesthouse is because of its location. However, the wifi is not working despite the presence of a router on our floor (reception recommended using wifi in lobby) and the tap in bathroom is a plastic pipe! I'm not sure if I have the courage to check in again. I would prefer going back to Khemara Battambang I that only charges USD$15 per room all year round.

Pomme Hostel is one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at. Owners and staff are great - more personable than any staff I’ve met in Cambodia. Had a great few evenings chatting (and drinking) with them into the night. The bar is one of the “places to be” in Battambang (live music, trivia, daily happy hour, a selection of beers on tap including Cambodian craft beer), but it doesnt stay loud too late in the evening. The rooms are basic and small and get a little warm, but they’re also incredible value for the money. They offer tours (highly recommended - we did the full day and the cooking class with Smokin Pot) and will book your travel. Put simply, we loved this place and you will too.

The staff was really nice. One shorter, upbeat guy in particular who had strong English. Rest of staff was kind, and their English was basic, but they are trying very hard. Room were clean with hot water. Definite good value for the room and once they have a restaurant or more eateries near by, it will be perfect. They offer free drives into town and then you can walk back, which isn't bad. It was a 10-15 minute walk and always felt safe. Bus transfer is convenient to book through them, but by booking it direct with the company 5 min walk down the street, saved us a bit. I'm not sure about the longer full-day tours, but for the half-day tour involving the bamboo train, "lake", and caves, they might want to reevaluate it. Other drivers offered to take us to more places for the same price, but we had already agreed to it. They also make it seem like you will have a tour guide, but we really only had an English-speaking driver. There is definitely a difference. The "lake" is not worth wasting time at.

We booked this guest house cause it said it was on the city center area. Actually it was not even in Battambang so you have to walk 30/40min to see the first bar or shops. No one speak english so they can't help for anything. We wanted to ask the wifi password, they have to find a neighboor who speaks english to understand. At the end they said they didnt know the password so we had to wait for the owner coming at the evening and they gave a wrong one. The room is dirty No point to go there

We booked for 2 nights but only stayed for 1 then we got on the overnight bus down to the South. Really large room and soft bed, nice hot shower! Located at the city center, just 30 meters away from the sitting bus station and 20 meters away from the overnight sleeping bus station(just behind the gas station). Didn't try the food at the restaurant. There's a restaurant&cafe just across the street. Good food. If you want to book bus ticket just go to the bus station, don't book from the hotel, they charge more.

Situated close to town in a relatively quite street. We were unlucky to strike a funeral which lasted two days and was very noisy. This was not the owners fault and could not be helped. They did however put us in a rear room as far from the noise as possible. Very helpful. Close to the market, cafes and restaurants. Front desk can organise most things for you at a reasonable price.

Quite good I'd recomend it especially for the price.It has no food that I could tell but I ate at places like Ganesha anyway. worked out well.It seems to be an asian centric hotel,Maybe Thai's?,wealthier than average locals visiting town? English is bad or non existant among staff if your like me and not panicked by that its all good as they are freindly.I had trouble booking onward transport I would cut the hassle and book buses at another hotel like the Hotel Royal.cheap clean and luxurious almost but still with a bit of carachter.

The hotel manager is extremely nice. He met us at the boat deck from Siem Reap and gave us a free ride to the hotel. . the hotel location is not too far from the city center. You can leisury walk to the market and all the restaurants. The room is large, clean and has nice bedding. The bathroom has a bathtub. Rent a tuk tuk to go to Wat Pra Saphoueng up in the moutain.

For $46US total for 2 nights it was a deal. Nice location, nice room - hot water, good A/C, fan, good Wifi, comfortable bed, fridge. There was no safe in my room but the hotel and the city were safe. Just carried my passport, money and credit cards with me. There was a gecko in the room - which I didn't mind - except that it made sounds that woke me up. A simple "Shhhh!" took care of the problem. My rate did not include breakfast but there were plenty of cafes within walking distance. The staff was good - not rude nor friendly - efficient, yes. The whole city was like that, which was fine with me. Small town with a big city attitude. Will definitely stay at Lux Guest House again.

I stayed at Paris Hotel for one night, and it was a last minute booking. The hotel itself is in a great location, close to the central market and bus stations. The building itself is quite old and could use some updating. The room was acceptable, and the a/c was able to keep up with the heat. When I arrived, the room had no towels and toiletries or toilet paper. The plus side is I believe each room has a balcony, but it's usually too hot to enjoy being outside this time of year. Additionally, this hotel does not have wifi. Otherwise, the hotel itself was fine, the staff was friendly.

The whole accommodation was really nice and spacious. It was quite fancy and out of my expectation (the pool) for the price I paid. Staffs were also very nice and accommodating to our requests. AC and Wifi were good. Like any guesthouse, they provide the basic needs. Best part about this place is the restaurant in the same compound. The food was good and at an affordable price. The only disappointing factor about this place is its location. I was expecting it to be closer to city center in a walking distant manner.

My stay at Jasmine Hotel exceeded my expectation. The room was very clean and spacious. There's a desk, TV and a wardrobe to hang your clothes. The bed was comfortable, air con worked good. The bathroom was very clean and modern. There's a hair dryer that you can borrow from the receptionist. Wifi was also good. The food they serve in the cafe was also good and with a good price. The menu was well varied. The only minor disadvantage is the location that is slightly outside the city center. But not so far.

Battambang is a sleepy town with plenty to see if you do your research. This hotel was very well priced, opposite local food markets Only downsides were demolition going on next door, music from market pumping til late and leaking air con (had to place a bin underneath to catch the drips), and breakfast cafe options nearby were minimal & pricey These are only very minor grievances, you're travelling, you should be up nice and early seeing this great city!

Loved this hotel, read previous reviews and wasn't so sure after we had booked it but couldn't fault anything (we got a room with a window but kept the curtains shut). The room was spotlessly clean, the staff friendly and attentive. We put some clothes to launder and they came back the next day, very cheap too. We had breakfast at the hotel, the food wasn't special but it was tasty and served quickly. The pool was great to cool down in. We really enjoyed the rooftop, it was peaceful with fantastic views of the city, shame it didn't have a bar, they could make a fortune from it. Would recommend highly a stay here, great value for money, would definitely go back.
