Property entrance is hard to find. Signage is small and dull. But inside it is boutique and quiet. upper floors have city views. A gem, I'm glad I found it.

Not in a very great part of town. Very limited dining, shopping and entertainment. Mostly grungy markets. Very dirty streets. Construction near by that was noisy.

Very good value for the price! The hotel is centrally located, my room was clean, spacious and quiet, staff was very helpful and professional, breakfast was good. This is an older building, apparently from 60ies, hidden in a narrow lane and could be a bit difficult to find without a GPS. For me, this added some extra charm, some may consider the facility a bit outdated. I think the hotel is a gem and I would definitely stay there again.

Good location no rooftop

the hotel is in a good location, although difficult to find because it is in a small ally. Room was ok for the price, breakfast was very basic. but the real downer was the fact that they advertise a nice rooftop bar that actually has been closed for months.

Average stay in Phnom Penh

Just completed a 3 night stay at the Molyan Hotel in Phnom Penh.

Positives:
- Able check in when we arrived super early (just after 10am)
- Room was upgraded on arrival to a larger room
- Location is great and within walking distance of most attractions
- Lots of restaurants/bars within a short walking distance
- Room was very large and bed was comfortable

Negatives:
- Overall the hotel needs a bit of tlc, rooms were clean on the surface but would benefit from a deeper clean especially in the bathroom and kitchenette area (old food was left in plug - not very nice)
- Breakfast was probably the worst I have had in SE Asia. Very limited choice, and by the time we arrived for breakfast at around 9am, everything was pretty much gone, staff did not replenish things as they ran out. One kind member of staff made the offer on the second day to get us anything that had run out but no offer was made to a second couple that arrived some time after us.
- Rooftop bar & restaurant: hotel is advertised as having a rooftop bar and restaurant. We visited the rooftop bar on our first night to find it completely deserted, looked as though it had not been in use for months and months. Same goes for the restaurant, this seems to be used as a staff room. If these are no longer on offer then that is fine, but to advertise that there are attractive facilities such as rooftop bar when there are not is simply misleading and we would have looked elsewhere having known this

Good location and comfortable room

The room size was comfortable with a nice balcony. I was on the 6th floor so it was nice and quiet. Good location as it was about 15mins walk to the palace. There were many restaurants nearby.
The hotel has good wifi, but the cleanliness of the bathroom can be improved as there were long strands of hair all over the bathroom walls when I first got to the room.
Breakfast was included but the choice were limited.

Great value for money, lobby needs improvement

The hotel was a bit difficult to find. Upon arrival, tho the front desk in charge was nice, however the lobby was just a bit scary since it was too dark, and the security guard was initially sleeping on the couch.

The room was suprisingly good, they can still improve a little bit on cleanliness, but i was pleasantly surprised with how big the room was.

The location is also good, its near a lot of attractions. Just outside the hotel, theres a police station.
However, one might still feel uncomfortable walking at night since the streets are not well lighted.

Give it a try

I stayed here only for one night. Staff and hotel reception were extremely nice and helpful and check in was quick and easy. The hotel was a little difficult to find as it is tucked away in an alley but really cool alley with tons of bars and restaurants and very close to the Independent Mouument. The only improvement I’d suggest is the AC unit which runs slowly and is not all that powerful, especially during the hot months. Other than that, great stay! Highly recommend.

Deceptivally good!!

We enjoyed our stay at the Molyan. When we arrived the sign to the hotel looked awful and we immediately checked the address hoping the taxi was wrong! It wasn't.... We walked down the alleyway and found the Molyan and from then onwards it was great! The room was very big. We had 2 balconies, a kitchenette and a sofa in addition to the room. The location is pretty convenient to get everywhere. It's all very busy and hectic, and yet we slept well in the hotel. I would recommend. We did the Killing Fields and S-21 tour through the hotel but that I wouldn't recommend. I felt rushed. I would rather have used a tuk tuk and spent more time without being herded out in a certain timeframe. Great stay.

Amazing hotel, only the location can Worry a bit!!

Overall the hotel is amazing... the terrace has an amazing view of the city main street and the drinks are great, definitely it is worth spending the night there... The breakfast was good and the service great!! the room was very comfortable and had kitchen and residential size fridge, could not asked for more... the only but is the location since it is inside an alley and was a little bit hard to find and the area was a little \"worried\" to walk outside during night.

Enjoy Cambodia by day, but rest in a gorgeous Western standard hotel by night. I did NOT do that for the first half of my trip and really regretted. I was so glad to find Molyan!

Wow! After living in Cambodia for 3 months, I was SHOCKED that this place existed at such a reasonable price! Despite it's hidden location down an alley (that is thankfully right next to a police station) and next to \"Back Alley Bar\", as soon as you step into this hotel you'll feel you're in a tiny resort. Great English, helpful staff who offered to assist me with everything including getting a last minute bus ticket and printing it for me, high technology, fast internet, WORKING A/C's, breakfast included WITH COFFEE!

The rooms are spotless, fully equipped with everything you would expect from a NICE hotel in America, even the fridge has beverages for purchase that are almost at the same price as a grocery store.

i was VERY pleased and have already recommended it to a dozen friends!
It's a very small hotel - only 3 rooms on each floor and probably only 6 floors, but if you're lucky enough to get an opening, you won't regret it!
I am a mother of 2 small ones and although I took this trip to PP alone for dental work, this would have been an IDEAL place to bring my kids too.

GREAT location!

お値段が安くて、ゆったりした個室なので、満足です。
上の階のお部屋に入れてくれて、バルコニーもあり、眺めも良かったです。

不思議なT字型のお部屋で、シンクと冷蔵庫が両側に分かれて設置されています(コンロや調理器具はなし、湯沸かしポットとカップのみ)。
でも、片側はベンチなど置いて、座って窓の外を眺められるようになっていたら良いと思う。

お掃除はイマイチで、床にチョコレートが落ちてアリンコがいたり、ちょいちょい小さな虫がいたり。
バスマットも黒ずみがあります。

あと、入り口までがとても細い路地で、早朝はゴミや虫の死骸など汚いです。

ですが、すぐそばにローカルの小さなマーケットがあって楽しいです。

お湯は、天井のレインシャワーからはまあまあちゃんと出ます。手元のフレキシブルなシャワーからはお湯は出ません。

歯ブラシや石けん、スリッパ(閉業した東横インのロゴ入り・・・)、バスローブなどもありました。
タオルがバスタオルしかないので、小さいのがあったらよかったです。

場所は便利だし、お値段の割にとても良いホテルです。

To avoid

Tough to find out location if you don't know the city.
Comfort is just enough, great bed, but the rest was cheap quality. Nothing in the kitchen to cook.
The worst was the staff. Happened that no one was there during hours, customers waited for check in and out.

ungepflegtes Hotel in einer schmalen Gasse

Hallo Molyan Hotel.
dass das Hotel in einer schmalen Gasse lag , war kein Problem, denn ich hatte mir das vor meiner Buchung angesehen.
Das Frühstück, na ja, doch nur Asian -Food.
das Personal war sehr unfreundlich, bis auf eine Dame, der ich dann auch einen Deutschen Lind-osterhasen geschenkt habe. als ich das erste mal zum Frühstück kam, sagte der unfreundliche Mann nur: ZIMMERNUMMER. ich sagte ihm: das heist erstmal guten Morgen, aber ohne Reaktion, obwohl er Englisch srach. ich sah ihn dann nur am Händy sitzen. dass es auch Eierspeisen auf Bestellung und Suppe gab , wusste ich nicht. Ok ich habe Überlebt.Das Personal war unfreundlich, ich wollte in einer Notsituation wegen Corona einen Ausdruck haben von meinem PC. die Hilfe kam nicht.
Das bett war schon sehr ausgelegen, hatte allerdings das billigste zimmer für 34 Euro---da sollte mann mehr erwarten.nun ja, Sauberkeit---Ameisen im zimmer,welche nicht beseitigt worden sind. ich habe mir dann das Giftspray geben lassen. der Kühlschrank musste ich mit eigenen Reinigungstücher auswaschen.
als gast zuvor im NAGA 2 und Bridge-Club und vielen anderen hotels war das Molyan das Schlechteste.
Es tut mir sehr leid,dass ich das schreiben muss, ich hoffe, dass einige der Beanstandungen mit dem Corona-Virus zusammen hängen. zb. hat man mit den Fingern auf mich gezeigt, als ich aus dem Fahrstuhl gekommen war---die tür zum Nebenraum wurde dann direkt zugeschlagen. was ich noch sagen muss,dass das Reinigungspersonal nett war.

Grande suite très confortable et propre. Personnel extrêmement aimable, attentif, serviable et respectueux parlant anglais. Bon petit déjeuner complet inclus. L'entrée se fait par une petite ruelle sombre pas très belle (le chauffeur de tuk tuk est passé devant plusieurs fois avant de trouver) mais cela ne pose aucun problème, notamment de sécurité. Je recommande vivement cet établissement.

清潔感があって良かったですが、トイレとシャワールームが一緒になっていた。

朝食はビッフェスタイル、プラス、卵料理や麺料理などを選べるので、4泊したが飽きなかった。
ホテルのスタッフさん達は親切で親しみやすくて良かったです。
空港からホテルに向かう時、場所がメイン通りから人かバイクが通れるくらいの細い道を少し入ったところにあるので分かりづらかったが、慣れるとイオンモール1までも徒歩圏内でどこにいくにも便利だった。

Hotel excelente com atendimento sensacional. A área do hotel não é muito bonita mas é muito útil pois tem diversas opções para alimentação, além de uma lavanderia próxima. Alem disso, o shopping fica a uns 10 min de caminhada, ou seja, a localização do hotel é excelente.
