Sala Lodges

Truly a wonderful place ! We loved everything, from the unique and authentic conception of the place, to the kindness of the people. We can’t wait to come back one day !

Sala Lodges in the enchanting city of Siem Reap is nothing short of a hidden gem that boasts not only of charming aesthetics but also of exceptional service that made our stay unforgettable. Nestled quietly away, this hotel provided a tranquil retreat that was much needed during our travel. The service at Sala Lodges was commendable, embodying the true spirit of hospitality. The staff were attentive, approachable, and consistently willing to assist us in organizing our trips around Siem Reap, making the overall experience hassle-free and enjoyable. A special shoutout to the Swiss owners who were genuinely amiable and made us feel warmly welcomed. As for the accommodations, the rooms in Sala Lodges were a delightful surprise. Each room bore discrete charm with its tasteful decoration, seamlessly blending traditional and contemporary elements. The authentic Khmer old houses are full of charm, yet modern and well preserved. The hotel’s kitchen offered a menu that might seem simple at a glance but was satisfyingly delightful upon tasting. Every dish we tried was prepared well, with fresh ingredients and flavors that are comforting yet exciting to the palate. The breakfast, in particular, deserves an extra note of praise for being consistently good, providing a delightful start to our days of exploration. Adding to the hotel’s allure was the inviting swimming pool, serving as a refreshing sanctuary after a day of touring the magical temples and vibrant markets of Siem Reap. During the wet season, the atmosphere around Sala Lodges was even more calming and soothing, with the soft sound of rain providing a comforting backdrop to our stay. To sum it up, our experience at Sala Lodges was nothing short of magical. From the excellent service to the beautifully appointed rooms and delightful meals, every aspect of the hotel contributed to a stay that was serene, comfortable, and absolutely enjoyable. Whether you’re traveling in the wet season or not, Sala Lodges offers a cosy retreat that will surely enhance your Siem Reap adventure. Highly recommended!

The staff and owner could not have done more to make our stay better. They were super attentive while also being extremely discrete at the same time. For example, our room was made up twice a day and despite the fact that we came and went at all sorts of time we never ran into someone in our room. We slept all four of us in the Bram House (5). They made up two single beds for the kids (10 and 15). But the bigger / family house would be great for a family if you want more space (we were fine in the smaller house). The pool was exceptional, and we loved ordering lunch and juices to have poolside. The rooms (houses) and the grounds are so beautiful. Comfortable beds, huge bathroom, cupboard space, great air-conditioning, and lovely balcony to sit on in the afternoons with one of their delicious cocktails. A $2 tuk tuk ride will get you almost anywhere in town from Sala Lodges. Or the staff will take you in their own tuk tuk for $3, which you can charge to the room. I recommend staying here. You will not regret it.

Sala Lodges offered us a truly unique experience within a luxury hotel setting. Each of the homes are original structures transported from various locations in Cambodia. We stayed in #7 House Bram Pi, overlooking the pool! it was beautifully updated with modern features, but continued to have an authentic feel. The tranquil pool offered a serene setting to swim and have a drink after a long day touring the temples. Besides the unique setting, the staff was wonderfully welcoming, kind and helpful. The service was impeccable! I would certainly recommend Sala Lodges to friends and family.

I stayed at Sala lodges 10 years ago for my 50th birthday and had such an amazing experience. I decided to have my 60th birthday there with a group of friends. If you’re looking for somewhere to have a special occasion, or just a quite getaway this is the place, with their houses placed around the property so everybody can has their own privacy, with plenty of places to come together and have a meal, drinks or swimming in the pool. I contacted Sala lodges direct to book the houses we needed, from then everything was organised over email, airport transfers, restaurant bookings, activities, they just made it so easy to turn up and relax, knowing everything was taken care of. The staff are amazing, kind and friendly and nothing was too much bother, this just added another layer to a fantastic experience of staying in one of their unique houses. The food was delicious, my favourite was the fresh pastries and bread at breakfast. I chose to have a barbecue for my birthday dinner, which was held at Ma Om restaurant at Sala lodges. Everybody was talking about how delicious the food was wonderful service we received that evening. I can’t thank the staff enough for making this a birthday to remember. .

Thank you Sala Lodges! We had a fabulous time with friends, celebrating a birthday and visiting sites around Siem Reap. Our traditional wooden house was very comfortable. You really spoilt us, making sure we had all we needed, especially a cool drink. The food was delicious and the birthday dinner was very special. A big shout out to staff. All of you are amazing. Friendly and attentive. It’s you, who do all the hard work, that make a place to stay in so memorable.

Sala Lodges is a magical place, a small oasis in Siam Reap. The staff is absolutely delightful and friendly. The services offered by the establishment are of high quality and always attentive to detail. The owners, originally from Switzerland, are also very sociable and always ready to help guests. We highly recommend both the breakfast and dinner: fresh, high-quality products. I would recommend this stilt lodge to all my friends.
