Weird abandoned 5 Star Hotel in Siem Reap.
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
Seen plenty of unfinished hotels that appear abandoned but this is bizarre. I'm a little surprised it hasn't been looted or squatted by now.

Yes, it is the Hotel de Ville. Business has been bad for ages which is a surprise given the location. There are two more like that on N6.

I noticed quite a few derelict hotels on NR6 last time I was there. Weird that that one still has all its furniture etc.

Former Terrasse des Elephants Hotel, before it changed name. Not been closed that long, maybe a couple of years.
Had a friend stay there, unique showers in rooms based on Bayon towers & cool roof-top pool.
Great location, only downside was no lift.

I remember looking at this in about 2006, when it was for rent, the pool on the roof had me worried(a bit concerned about the structural strength), but time has proven me wrong, when it opened as Terrasse Des Elephants It was very popular(for awhile) and some serious money must have been spent on this place, sad to see it now, its a great location, but its in a highly saturated market, Hanno needs to go in there and do his magic:) its too much (work)for me

There's also the City Royal Hotel (I think that's the correct name) on Rd 6 - another spooky-looking ruin.
