  • The Okay Boutique Hotel in central Phnom Penh, Cambodia, is an excellent choice at only £27 USD per night. It ticks all the boxes.

    I’ve stayed at a few hotels in Phnom Penh and the Ohana Phnom Penh Palace Hotel was by far the best value, great buffet breakfast included in the price until 12 noon, 2 swimming pools one on the ground floor plus 2 small pools on the roof, glorious view, very large rooms and friendly staff. Also great location next to the Riverside and an interesting street market! Very very comparable as an alternative to the one you stayed at Eddie!

    Although haven't been Cambodia, like the Philippines ( have been) just doesn't look as good as pattaya mate. Maybe a little cheaper but Thailand is probably safer, better medical facilities if you need it, better dining options. Yes you can say I'm not there but am pretty sure by your videos I'd be fuggin back off to pattaya. Angeles city in Philippines was not up to scratch i got out after a couple days. Long live pattaya.
