The Columns

Friendly staff. Good location. That’s all the pros. Ants. No elevator. No pool. Cold showers. This is a $30 hotel trying to be a $50 hotel.

Personnel aux petits soins, un tres bel hotel style colonial, tres bon et copueux petit dejeuner.

This is a charming hotel in the middle of Kampot, and everything you need is within walking distance. The building is the conversion of two former shops. The room was a good size and comfortable, with a wash basin in the room and separate shower and toilet. It was two floors up and no lift — be warned. Our room also had a roof terrace, a great boon. There was a very good choice of freshly made breakfast, with the addition of home made cupcakes and biscuits as well as a plate of fruit. What really makes this place special is the hosts, Tavi and Kim. Both speak excellent English and are very helpful in arranging drivers for tours and recommending places to eat (including the excellent nearby café Le Corner, which they also run). The hotel also boasts a good book swap.

Chambre impeccable tout près du centre dans le quartier français Un peu de bruit à l’extérieur mais petit déjeuner excellent que l’on peut varier tous les jours .. Surtout la gentillesse de nos hôtes pleins d’attention et de riches conseils !!

The description as luxury is not completely justified (e. g. no separated bathroom)
