The Shangri-La Group made a dramatic debut in Cambodia with the grand opening of Shangri-La Phnom Penh on December 28, 2024. This highly anticipated property promises to redefine luxury hospitality in the capital, blending iconic Asian hospitality with the vibrant culture of Cambodia.

Strategically situated in Koh Pich, one of Phnom Penh’s most dynamic neighbourhoods, the hotel forms part of an architectural marvel—a striking tri-tower development soaring 228 meters into the sky. As one of the tallest structures in the city, Shangri-La Phnom Penh will serve as both a symbol of modernity and a gateway to the rich cultural tapestry of Cambodia.

A New Jewel in Phnom Penh’s Skyline

Boasting 303 luxurious rooms and suites, the hotel offers breathtaking panoramic views of the confluence of the Mekong, Tonle Sap, and Tonle Bassac rivers. The interiors blend Art Deco, Neo-Classical, and Khmer design elements, creating a harmonious sanctuary infused with natural light and warm wood accents. Guests are invited to unwind in their private waterfront retreats while taking in the vibrant energy of Phnom Penh.

The debut of Shangri-La Phnom Penh marks a pivotal moment for the city, enhancing its global appeal as a prime destination for leisure and business travel. With Cambodia’s tourism industry rising, the hotel is poised to become a cornerstone for growth, attracting international travellers and fostering local economic development.

A Celebration of Culinary Heritage

Shangri-La Phnom Penh will showcase Cambodia’s rich culinary traditions through diverse dining experiences. Kommune Dining & Social Space, open during the phase-one launch, features fresh, locally sourced ingredients in authentic Khmer dishes such as Beef Lok Lak and Fish Amok, supporting local farmers and celebrating regional flavours.

In 2025, the hotel will unveil two additional dining venues:

• Shang Palace, the group’s iconic Chinese restaurant, is renowned for its signature Peking Duck and exquisite regional specialties.
• Altitude Rooftop Bar, a vibrant space offering sunset views, curated cocktails, and light bites, is perfect for socializing against the stunning Phnom Penh skyline.

These culinary offerings position the hotel as a gastronomic destination, contributing to Cambodia’s growing reputation as a hub for global and regional cuisine.

Unparalleled Facilities for Business and Leisure

Designed with both business and leisure travellers in mind, Shangri-La Phnom Penh features state-of-the-art amenities, including one of the city’s largest ballrooms, making it an ideal venue for conferences, weddings, and corporate events.

The hotel’s infinity pool and wellness spa provide serene escapes for relaxation, ensuring guests experience luxury and rejuvenation. These facilities will progressively open in 2025, enhancing the hotel’s comprehensive service offerings.

A Gateway to Cambodian Culture and Luxury

The phased opening begins on December 28, 2024, with select guest rooms, Kommune Dining & Social Space, and the elegant Mekong Lounge and The Atelier. This measured rollout ensures a seamless introduction to Phnom Penh’s newest luxury icon.

Shangri-La Group’s expansion into Cambodia underscores its commitment to bringing world-class hospitality to new frontiers. By seamlessly blending its Asian heritage with local cultural elements, the brand aims to create an inspiring and memorable experience for every guest.
