We stayed 5 nites and the breakfast was good and the staff amazing. However noisy until 11h00 at nite because of the Hard rock cafe in front. And no black out curtains. But overall good for the price

Friendly, helpful staff, clean, spacious room with great shower (no tub). No lift in the building, so one has to carry their luggage up the stairs. Had a room on the side of the building, so it was a little noisy at night due to the Hard Rock Cafe across the street.

Thank you to all the staff at the Blanc Smith Residence. I stayed for 4 weeks. Everyone was wonderful. Kind, polite and always a welcoming smile. My room was spotless after cleaning. The breakfast was wonderful from Ning Ning and Liam. Kong, Jame and the the other wonderful staff at reception gave me warmth and love. Thank you so kindly for a wonderful stay. Darren. Xx 🙏🙏🙏

3 night stay to visit Angkor. Mr Pheaktra The General Manager reached out earl to welcome us and offered to coordinate ride from airport. That was a good decision. Airport is about 45 min from hotel and not much around the airport (limited taxi/Grab).

Staff very friendly and accommodating, especially Jame who worked afternoon/nights which seemed to be when we had most questions. He was very friendly and super helpful.

Other reviews talk about noise and the first two nights we loud (used earplugs) but attribute that to the 3 day River Festival that was happening just outside hotel on river. Third night was much quieter.

Bed was clean and it was a good mattress. Room was clean. Shower is a bit jenky (if you want a western shower), meaning no walls. I’ve seen it that way in Korea, but wife was a bit more surprised.

Pool was nice and clean. We appreciated that the hotel sold large waters and beers in cooler and charged to room. Very convenient for beer after long, hot days at temples.

Area close to pub street and markets. Lots of restaurant choices and shopping stalls. Seemed safe and very easy access (main reason I selected the hotel). There was a very robust mini-mart next door that we could grab snacks and drinks from. The location did not disappoint.

Would stay again, very good access and friendly staff. One neutral part was the shower expectation. Thanks for the great stay Mr Pheaktra. Recommend!

I booked a room here for five nights. It was supposed to be a room with a king bed and balcony. Discovered checking in there is no elevator and had to drag a large suitcase up several flights of stairs. Arrive at room to discover a double bed with a tiny balcony facing a building a few feet away. Complained and after a sleepless night moved to another floor. The new room had a somewhat larger bed and no balcony. Purchased a breakfast package when I booked. It was a total joke.The menu is set. After being served on third day an ice cold (not lukewarm) eggs 1 strip of thin bacon a one inch piece of sausage we just left. The ten dollar U.S cost buys a great meal anywhere in Siem Reap. Although they refill two bottles of water in your room daily it is decanted from a large jug when cleaning the room. I didn't trust it.Western tv channels were not available. It is directly across the road from the Hard Rock Cafe bring earplugs.The staff here are really nice .

Plus, the staff were super lovely and helpful! Rooms were a good size and very clean. I very highly recommend Blanc Smith Residence!

A beautiful hotel in close proximity to Pub Street. It’s conveniently located with numerous shops, restaurants and street food vendors all within walking distance by the river. My room was nice and I had a balcony overlooking the street. The bed and pillows were very soft, comfortable and so lux. Even though there is no elevator and the bars across the street played music until whenever time, I was still able to get some much needed rest but others might find it quite bothersome. Their restaurant is very convenient downstairs for a quick bite or Khmer coffee and they offer daily breakfast that includes a variety that range from Western food to delicious local Khmer dishes. I had an early sunrise tour one day and they even packaged it for me for take away at 4 am. All of the hotel staff are very accommodating with warm, generous and kind smiles left an everlasting impression on me. There was a small outdoor pool that I did not get to enjoy while I was there but it did look very inviting. The hotel does not offer laundry service but there were plenty of locals within the block offering their services and it was very affordable. I had a very memorable time staying here in Siem Reap and I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for an affordable accommodation that will satisfy your requirements. I felt quite happy and safe staying here. I will definitely return again someday.

What a great hotel, the remodel was amazing the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. They set up a driver ( Von ) for my daily trips and Theara as my tour guide and he was so knowledgeable and made sure I learned about all the temples as well as the people and culture of Cambodia.. be sure to ask for Theara & Von if you want the perfect sightseeing

Hotel close to town

Nice boutique hotel very close to old market and pub street. Everything is just opening up after COVID so hotel at this stage did not have restaurant. Pool area small, not really comfortable for lounging but good to cool down in. Rooms good size, beds very comfortable. Tv only worked if you had Netflix or YouTube. Nice staff, very helpful so good priced hotel if you want to be close to action, no lift so if mobility issue stairs may not be for you

The breakfast is amazing, this was one of the highlights of my stay in Siam Reap. The location is good, the people who work there are all really friendly and the rooms are clean and large. I want to go back there.
Downside, the pool is small and close a busy road which can be noisy and the air pollution can be bad.

Good stay!!

Staff was excellent. Also it was well located.Room was clean and had everything that we needed.
The breakfast was excellent but we ordered a box breakfast for our morning sunrise tour of Angor Wat and it was really not good at all. Really not edible.

We were starving when we got back after our tour but breakfast was over.
However there is a great coffee shop attached to the hotel. We had an excellent lunch there. Box breakfast aside we would definitely recommend this hotel.

Unrivalled customer service from start to finish

Great location within easy walk of Pub Street. This hotel offers spacious, modern rooms with a pleasant balcony to watch Cambodian life go by. The service at this hotel was second to none from before we even got there with a complimentary tuk-tuk transfer from the airport. This great service continued throughout our stay to include reception staff, bar man and cleaning staff. We also booked a day trip to the famous Angkor Wat complex through the hotel and were very impressed with both price and quality. The only possible compliant is a slight bit of noise from Hard Rock Cafe over the road, but this was manageable. We would definitely staying at this hotel again and will be recommending to anyone who stays in Seam Reap in the future.

Excellent hotel with staff to match, special mention to Mr Sam who picked us up from the airport, also Ms Nary at the front desk and Ms Seang who always had a big smile on her face at our lovely breakfast. The hotel is in an excellent location with regards to all the bars and restaurants also the night market. If we ever come back to Siem Reap I would not hesitate to rebook at The Blanc Smith again.

I had numerous issues with the wooden bed frame as it stuck out 3 or more inches past the mattress.

As such I scrapped both legs on many occassions drawing blood. In addition at night I also tripped over the end of the bed frame en route to the bathroom one night. I am still very sore after the fall.

This is the first time I have ever tripped over a bed frame in hundreds of hotel rooms. I received a verbal apology from the management. We paid our dinner and lunch meals we had charged to our room and then drove to the airport

The beds should be replaced and I would not recommend this hotel until they do.

Vi har aldrig følt os så velkomne på et hotel som her. Selve hotellet er super fint med swimmingpool, skøn restaurant med lækker mad til gode priser og en utrolig velfungerende og serviceminded service drak. Alt personale er SÅ søde, smilende, hjælpsomme og kommunikerende. Hotellet har en meget central og fin beliggenhed. Vi har kun det allerbedste at sige om dette hotel og ikke mindst personalet.
