The 201-room hotel will be the first new five-star hotel to open in Phnom Penh in more than a decade. It features eight restaurants and bars, a lounge, two squash courts, four floodlit tennis courts and two locales for workouts gym.
The hotel includes seven classes of accommodation ranging from 121 superior rooms to 45 luxury, 23 junior suites, 11 prestige suites and one opera suite. Wooden floors, glass-walled baths and classic appointments distinguish every room. More than 150 of the hotel’s rooms overlook the Mekong.
The hotel’s executive quarters, Club Millésime, and its 1,800 square-meter ballroom are appointed for corporate clients. Sofitel has invested $2 million to equip its ballroom with an audio-visual technology. The hotel’s La Coupole restaurant features Indochinese and French cuisines.
On the 12th floor, Club Millésime caters to the hotel’s executive guests in the first purpose-built facility of its kind in the region. The lounge is a combination of outdoor space and sophisticated décor.
Sofitel’s So Spa features French cosmetology, a restaurant-like menu of treatment options and a blending of private and public space. Five of the spa’s 10 private treatment rooms are designed for Khmer and Thai treatments. The other five rooms, each spanning 30-square meters, will be used for various beauty treatments.
