Siem Reap 101 – Cheathata Angkor Hotel

Last December, I took an impromptu trip to Siem Reap with a friend, since both of us had not been there before. With about 2 hours flight from KL, we landed safely in Siem Reap International Airport on a sunny Wednesday morning. There was not so many people at the airport so  we got ourselves cleared by the immigration counter quickly. Our tour guide had already waited for us outside the airport and took us straight to the hotel that we booked on Agoda. For USD209.25 (about MYR645), we got ourselves a huge room with 2 queen beds for 3 nights stay. Quite newly opened in late 2010, this hotel is strategically located in the city center, a short 5 minutes walking distance to the Pub Street and the Angkor Night Market. The room was good and clean, and comes with free WIFI (a must for tech geek like me!). The bathroom could be bigger but it was still alright for me. Some might also complain about the tiny swimming pool which is more like a jacuzzi pool than swimming pool. But most importantly the service had exceeded our expectation for a 3.5 star hotel, where we were promptly greeted with a welcoming drink, fresh fruits were made available everyday in our room and also breakfast being packed for our day two 4am trip to the Angkor Wat Temple. 
In short, we were quite satisfied with our stay at Cheathata Angkor Hotel and would definitely recommend it to people who are visiting Siem Reap.
