The highlight of the hotel is really the bar and pool area on the rooftop. I spent hours there reading and just looking at the sunset. it‘s really a scenic location.

A very good sociable hostel. I had a private room very comfortable and extremely clean. It was a good price for the area. The tours and organised events were really good fun. Tin Tin who did our sunset walk was fantastic information. I really enjoyed this. The trip information and booking facilities were also fab. I found it a great way to socialise and meet people I would definitely return to this hostel. The food was also very very good.

Totally enjoyed the stay, the pool, cocktails and food. It’s close to the city, rooms are clean. The staff is very friendly and professional. I’ll definitely stay with them again. We wanted to leave a day earlier than planned due to some flight change, they allowed it and refunded the amount too. Thanks for being so kind and for the service. Wish you the best.

I stayed in the Local riverside during Khmer new year and it was great. It’s close to everything and still calm if you just want to chill. The beds in the dormitory are big but you can also have a private room if you prefer. The must is Yat the owner and the others staff members like Nana who are very nice and welcome you as a friend. Also the food is very good. I definitely recommend to stay there.

Amazing stay, we really enjoyed the Kick-boxing (khun Khmer) training that they offer and that we highly recommend, a transformative experience. It was so good that we prolongued our stay for one week. The hosts are extremely inspiring and have a great energy! The staff is amazing, the room is big and the beds are very comfortable. Everything was very clean and tidy. Also good location, well connected with the tuktuk to the city center and there are great local restaurants nearby. In conclusion, if you are depressed save yourself the psychologist and come here to get a training!

All hostels in Phnom Penh

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

This hostel is perfect if you want to meet new friends and fellow travelers. It's clean and comfortable, providing a welcoming atmosphere. While it's a bit far from the main tourist attractions, getting around by tuk-tuk is easy and convenient. It's truly one of the best hostels in Phnom Penh, and I can't wait to come back! Highly recommended for social travelers!

It is a super clean hostel, and with plenty of common spaces. However, I think it is for young backpackers with a high budget, because it is a lot of party and the hostel restaurant is expensive, I paid 8.20 USD for a breakfast that consisted of a double espresso plus two pieces of toast with avocado, tomato and one pouched egg... it is expensive.

The hostel has a great location near the riverside, it is rather cheap and the beds are solid and not squeaky. The common bathroom was clean enough.

The onederz hostel is the best destination a solo and small budget traveller could ask for. The hygiene is really good, the beds and bathrooms are really clean. The beds are big and there is free shampoo and soap in the bathrooms. I have been to the onederz hostel everytime I come to Phnom Penh for the week end (around 10 times). It is absolutely amazing. The rooftop is breath taking and the food is good and cheap.

This seems like a luxury backpacker's hostel. A dream for those who want to keep the budget, but at the same time want maximum comfort. Staff speaks good English, attentive, and explain everything clearly. Everything is very clean and it seems you're in a 3 star hotel with a pool, except you share your room with other travelers
