Tourism took a massive hit worldwide during COVID-19, and no popular destination was more affected than Cambodia, which has suffered more disasters than most.

The Cambodian hospitality industry is rebuilding at all levels to entice more sustained visitation.

At the top rating, Anik Palace Hotel rated #2 (two) on TripAdvisor as the Best Value Hotel in Phnom Penh and #9 (nine) on Trip. Best 4-Star select hotels in Phnom Penh by Trip.com. Cluster General Manager Sin Samney (Sam) is extending the signature property, one of three, to appeal to a broader range of guests. “Guest numbers are slowly rising.” He said. “Cambodia is like a boxer; we keep on bouncing back.”

Anik Palace Hotel is a 4-star luxury and classic hotel in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, with 5-star service. It has the appearance of a castle. All guest rooms and public areas have a European classical theme inside and out. The exterior reflects the history of Cambodia, dating back to 1863 when the French Colony ruled it.

The property continues to be a popular choice for Australians visiting Phnom Penh.  Located in a sought-after area with easy access to the Victoria Monument, the Esplanade, the King’s Palace, and the Ton Le Sap River, the Anik Palace is a superb property at a realistic price in the heart of Phnom Penh with an obvious caring duty to the environment. The group is currently building a connection to the next-door property, which was constructed with the same elements as the Anik Palace. It will be accessed by a vast archway from the current hotel, providing a combination of more than 200 rooms, and is scheduled to open later in 2024. It will feature an authentic ground-floor Khmer restaurant open to guests and the public. The spa, conference room and sky bar will be extended to accommodate up to 160 guests.

Anik Palace Hotel is the third property to be opened by the Anik Hotels Group. All three properties are nestled in the heart of Phnom Penh. First to be launched was the Anik Boutique Hotel Rainbow Bridge, followed by Anik Boutique Hotel and Spa Norodom Blvd, and lastly, the Anik Palace. “Management has resolved to increase awareness of the unique properties brand to become a leading Cambodian Hotel Group and successfully operate the hotels with local talent,” Sam said. “Extensions to the signature property will appeal to a wider range of guests.” He said.

The Anik Palace was named by the owner in recognition of his love and respect for his wife. Anik is his wife’s nickname, “humbleness and kindness.”
