Hotels in Phnom PenhA basic, older 3-star city hotel near Tuol Sleng
6.8/10
Reasonable budget rooms, but tired facilities and unreliable breakfast limit the appeal.
Salita is a basic, older 3-star city hotel near Tuol Sleng, rather than the polished four-star some booking sites suggest. We'd consider it for a budget stay if room space matters more than facilities. Tripadvisor's September 2025 guests praise spacious, clean rooms and helpful staff; Agoda's overall rating is respectable, though Booking.com's much smaller review sample is markedly weaker.
The trade-offs are consistency and upkeep. Recent Expedia and Trip.com guests describe dated rooms and disappointing breakfast, while cleanliness reports vary from very clean to poorly maintained. More importantly, Agoda and Trip.com guests report no pool or spa despite advertised facilities; a hotel response acknowledges the confusion. We'd skip it for a facilities-led stay or dependable breakfast, and confirm exactly what's included before booking.

Best for: budget travelers comfortable with older rooms; visitors prioritizing Tuol Sleng access
Watch out for: dated rooms and uneven housekeeping; inconsistent breakfast; advertised pool and spa disputed by guests
Location: Near Tuol Sleng; the riverside sightseeing area requires a ride.
Rooms: Space earns praise, but recent guests still describe aging fittings and bathroom shortcomings.
Cleanliness: Mixed recent evidence: strong praise alongside complaints about poorly cleaned rooms.
Service: Helpful staff receive praise, though welcome and assistance are not consistently rated well.
Amenities: Dining, air conditioning and Wi-Fi are listed; do not count on a pool, gym or spa.
Fees and surprises: Breakfast inclusion varies by booking; airport transfers cost extra, and facility listings need confirmation.
