The hotel with history on its side, this place has been welcoming guests since 1929, including Charlie Chaplin, Jackie Kennedy and Bill Clinton. Ensconced in these sorts of opulent surroundings, it's easy to imagine what it was like to be a tourist in colonial days.There are plenty of colonial-style hotels in Siem Reap, but the luxurious Grand Hotel d'Angkor is the real deal. The Raffles group did a superb job on the renovation, which retained much of the original grandeur and introduced a range of new luxuries. The 131 rooms consist of five types, most of which have claw-foot bathtubs and four-post beds. The best are the historic 'personality suites' and the 'landmark rooms', which are the only rooms in the original building. Breakfast and dinner are included, and the pool is the perfect place to break up a day's temple-viewing. The only drawback is the hotel takes itself a bit too seriously and service can be stiff.The hotel is currently undergoing a refit, which will bring more exclusivity and suites than ever.

Our favourite Grand Hotel destination is the Elephant Bar, where you can spend some very happy hours indeed indulging in top-notch cocktails at bargain basement prices (from 16:00-20:00). But do get out and wander through the gardens over to Abacus for excellent French food or to L'Escale des Arts et Senses to try celebrity chef Didier Corlou's exotic creations.
Charlie Chaplain stayed here on his honeymoon after marrying actress Paulette Goddard in Shanghai. He also stayed at several other hotels that have gone on to become colonial classics, including Le Royal in Phnom Penh and the Metropole in Hanoi.
