Golden Temple Retreat

The staff were very friendly, and the hotel itself is beautiful. I got a $15 credit at the spa, which I used to get a nice pedicure. Everyone was super attentive and welcoming. The facilities were nice and the breakfast options had a good variety. L

This hotel is absolutely beautiful and the hospitality is incredible. The spa service was excellent. The pool is beautiful, do yourself a favor and book a ground floor room with access to the pool. Food is excellent as well.

Beautiful property with kind and extremely helpful staff. The dinner and show were amazing.

Loud noise from floor above, though staff addressed it as best they could.Take-away breakfast was missing items ordered.Pool was too cold and had very few loungers, resulting in need for those staying on upper floors to sit on loungers on patios “belonging to” specific rooms on pool level

The ambiance of the hotel was lovely, serene. The staff made an attempt to be very helpful. They were very responsive. Also, the location was excellent and having transport to/from the airport, an hour away, was reasonably priced and a pleasant journey. The facials and massages were good.

To start, we had the incorrect configuration of our room. We were to have two full size beds, according to the pictures, but had to settle for a king and a single. The room was stocked for three people, so the staff had to scramble to make it right. The room was nice and clean, with some unique details that made it appealing at the start of our stay. However, within the first 24 hours, we noticed that architecturally, the space proved to be challenging. First, the shower/tub area was not set up well for taking a shower because the floor got all wet and just made it so you could not step out onto a bath mat without it getting wet. There were no other hooks anywhere other than the bath/tub area, which meant limited privacy to get dressed. You could only get dressed in the toilet area, which was a good size, but unnecessary since it only had a toilet and large garbage can that was ill placed. The sink area was too small to have too many things on top, but the shelving below the sink was not tall enough to fit toilet kits. There were no usable drawers for storage and no good places to store our suitcases.The staff was very friendly, but when they were asked about some things, such as bringing bath mats or just refreshing the room, something was generally missing. The staff really seemed to be trying their best, but just their execution was subpar. I would not have categorized this hotel as 5 Star.In addition, the breakfast had very limited options in comparison to other hotels we stayed at on this trip. The pool had separate showers for men and women, but no bathroom, which would have made sense for this area.Overall, the stay was okay, but it felt like it was a startup hotel with startup challenges, needing to work through growing issues. Their expectations and execution were misaligned. I think this hotel has a lot of potential, but is just not there yet with meeting the bar of a 5-Star hotel.

Good location the rooms are very specious with amazing bathroom , nice balcony watching the long and amazing pool. Nice touch ! The staff is eager to assist very nice people! Thank you

Everything. The apsara dinner in the hotel restaurant, the songs of frogs in water next to the hotel, fresh lotus flowers in the room, smiles and care of staff.

The staff are number one Beautiful setting with pool a swing outside our door A wonderful breakfast included Our interaction with the staff will bring us lifelong memories

We have no negatives We had fantastic time

The staff were the most accommodating and thoughtful of anywhere I’ve been. The room was luxurious and comfortable, and so welcoming! The breakfast buffet was delicious and amazing. Honestly, I recommend it so highly and will definitely stay here the next time I’m back.

The breakfast was varied and delicious. The staff was very attentive and seemed like everything we could possibly want was there for the asking. The room was quiet and AC worked top notch. The bathroom was roomy and the sheets were a delight to sleep on. Couldn't have asked for a nicer stay. We did a travel package which was a modified version of what they were offering. Our guide spoke English and was very knowledgeable. Our Driver was charming and helpful. Felt like we were living the high life! Golden Temple Retreat is down a small street with other hotels and eateries (you can't go 50 feet without street food or a small eatery in Siem Reap). Tuk Tuks always available. Enjoyed our stay and Highly Recommended. Pool was delightful. I was able to do decent swim - whcih was a total bonus! The pool was cool and long-ish so I could do laps. Kids were there during the day time in weekend and that was cute. Family oriented, people oriented place.

Room was awesome on ground floor access to pool.Breakfast had lost of options and staff were very helpful at all times.Happy hour at the pool was an absolute pleasure.

Nothing to dislike

The hotel was fantastic. The reception team was truly exceptional – warm, welcoming, and always helpful with every detail. They made me feel completely comfortable throughout my stay. The housekeeping staff were also wonderful, and the breakfast was excellent with kind and attentive service. Overall, the hotel team created a perfect atmosphere.

The scooter rental company recommended by the hotel was absolutely unacceptable. They were dishonest, charged unfair extra costs, and offered no proper insurance. I felt cheated and very badly treated by this company. While I know this is not directly the hotel’s fault, they recommended them, so guests should be warned. This company ruined part of my stay, and I strongly advise future guests not to use their service.

The jungle feeling is awesome! Calm and very peaceful with spacious rooms

The breakfast is mediocre, it can be improved for sure

Hotel design and downtown location. Extra friendly staff always trying to go above and beyond.

Very nice staff, extremely clean, very comfortable

Breakfast and spa could have been better

The staff was incredible. They took care of all of our needs and requests. The room was spacious and comfortable. The breakfasts, as well as all the food at the restaurant, was great. The massages in the spa were very reasonable and excellent. The location was perfect for temple tours, but also for walking to Pub Street and other restaurants. This hotel is a slice of paradise. And the pool was great for cooling off after all the touring (along with an amazing happy hour). We highly recomend it!

The staff was fantastic and helped us with everything on our short 2 night trip from booking a great private tour of Angor Wat for our family to having a cultural dinner show on property that was easy and fun for a short trip. The pool was great for relaxing and even had poolside food/beverage service during the day. Massages were good on property as well!

Every once in a while you stay at a moderately priced hotel and everything just seems to click. Golden Temple Retreat was that hotel for me.The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. They genuinely care that you are enjoying your stay. Housekeeping was PERFECT every day. Every towel, every amenity placed exactly where it should be each day. Nightly treats and local Cambodian stories delivered with the evening turndown service.The laundry service was very inexpensive and the laundry was PERFECT every time; clean and pressed to perfection.I enjoyed my morning Cambodian-style breakfasts and chats with the restaurant staff. They had plenty of western options, but I can have that at home. A had the Cambodian noodles and soup almost every day.I’ve been to Cambodia many times so I did not avail myself of the hotel’s ability to make tour arrangements, etc., but I’m sure these are executed with the same quality & enthusiasm.It’s situated close to Pub Street but far enough away so it’s quiet. I walked some days, or took a $2 tuk tuk other days.I would not hesitate to stay at this lovely little hotel the next time I’m back in Siem Reap.

If there is one thing that could be improved, it’s the lighting over the bathroom sink. The overhead LED light is bright, but it’s positioned poorly. Whenever you try to look at your face in the mirror, you are in shadow. :(

We had an unforgettable stay at Golden Temple Retreat in Siem Reap. From the moment we were picked up at the airport by their warm and friendly driver, the hospitality was exceptional. Every staff member was polite, thoughtful, and truly went the extra mile to make our stay special.One of the highlights was the spa — the massage was deeply relaxing and professionally done. I was also surprised with a lovely birthday celebration, complete with fruit cakes and warm wishes from the staff. Our room was beautifully decorated as a complimentary gesture, which made the experience even more personal and memorable.The team paid close attention to our dietary preferences, ensuring every meal was suitable and enjoyable — a small detail that made a big difference. From the airport pick-up to the heartfelt send-off, the service was consistently warm and sincere. Highly recommended — we’d gladly return in a heartbeat!

It was a very comfortable hotel.Due to the air conditioning failure on the first day, we were guided to another hotel in the same chain. It was conveniently located near Pub Street. The breakfast at the other hotel had a slightly larger selection, but there was no big difference.The advantage of this hotel is that you can see the pool from your room, so you can relax at night while looking at the pool from your room.In the end, I'm glad I was able to stay at two different hotels and experience the good points of each.

We loved everything about our stay here! The perfect end to our trip. Facilities and ambience calm, inviting and relaxing. The pool is the best I’ve ever used! The landscaping creates a verdant sanctuary! The staff are fantastic. Every member of staff was helpful, thoughtful and welcoming. When we needed to seek medical advice we were guided and helped with great care. The front desk staff and restaurant staff were attentive and professional. Thanks Van, Tong, Alex and everyone else who’s names we don’t have! We had a wonderful stay here! Perfect. Highly recommend.

We loved it all!
