Reviews for Botanica Guesthouse

Review 1:No tv in the rooms but i went with my beautiful wife so didn't need a tv :):)

Review 2:Everything very romantic place the owners and staff were fantastic it's our second time there and will be more

Review 3:The guesthouse and the owners are great. French and Cambodian couple always willing to help you the best they can to make your stay a real pleasure. The swimming pool is awesome ! The guesthouse is few km away from the 'cneter', so I'd recommend to rent a bike (possible directly at the reception) :) We hope to come back !

Review 4:Wonderful week at Botanica! Owners and staff are charming and very helpful. Excellent food and service. Villas are very well designed surrounded by beautiful plants and trees. Highly recommend boat/snorkeling tour to snake island with Manu.

Review 5:Nothing!

Review 6:Friendly staff, great food, awesome pool. Little bit out of town but you can rent moto from them and they provide bicycle free of charge. Bungalows clean and comfortable with mosquito net over bed. Small seating area & hammock out front of each one aswel! Little bit of affordable luxury I'm beautiful Kep!

Review 7:Absolutely nothing

Review 8:Staff are a great help, speaking a number of languages (khmer,English and French). By far the comfiest bed I've slept in on our journey so far. The pool is very clean and well maintain,the option of a free bicycle and $6 mopeds for 24hrs is great as it's a little away from the town.

Review 9:I had a lovely stay at this guesthouse. The bungalow is simple, but has everything you need. The food and staff were excellent, and the pool was perfect on a hot Cambodian day. The only downside was the place is a little too far from town to walk, but the tuk tuks are so inexpensive it's honestly not a problem - and a very quick ride anywhere in the area. Thank you for a great stay!

Review 10:Botanica is a beautifully well maintained guesthouse. The private bungalows are comfortable and cleaned daily. The gardens at the guesthouse which separate the bungalows are stunning and the salt water pool is lovely. Food is reasonably priced and very tasty. We loved this place so much we extended our stay.

Review 11:Maybe the food is a little overpriced but the service with smile makes you to forget it !

Review 12:The staffs and the manager makes you feel very welcome and free ! No bothering, very helpful ! The swimming pool is very useful after a visit in the area ! The bungalows are surrounded by vegetation witch makes you feel in the jungle !

Review 13:Nothing

Review 14:Just loved everything about the place. The staff, the rooms, the pool. A little out of town but free bikes and easy walk in. And tuk tuk costs next to nothing if needed

Review 15:The place is a bit far away from the town and beach, but if you borrow a free bike, it's easy enough to get there and a nice ride.

Review 16:What a great place this is! French owner Phillipe and his wife and staff are so friendly and make you feel very welcome. The garden is beautiful and the pool is great. Very relaxing and excellent value for money. Great food. Would certainly recommend anyone to stay here, the staff feels like family after a couple of days.

Review 17:The resort (pool and surrounding) is beautiful, the staff is very nice, friendly and helpful, the bicecles (for free) are good, and the family who owns it is very nice

Review 18:Basic but very comfortable and clean cottages in a very lush and well-kept garden. Hammoch and couch on the veranda to laze away the hours, feels like paradise .. Beautiful pool , very refreshing and free bikes to cycle into town. Quiet location, would book again.

Review 19:The place is family run. Lovely clean swimming pool. The rooms are beautiful little huts set in a lovely garden. Retaurant/bar had a great selection and the Asian/French menu was fabulous.

Review 20:the location was pretty much middle of nowhere for the first time visitor. especially it's so dark around at night, make sure you get there in day time. wifi signal was very weak from the room and the cocktails were little too strong but still i'd love to visit again!!

Review 21:very kind and helpful staffs, nice bar, little lovely swimming pool and the garden, so quiet and chilled atmosphere. the room was so clean and lovely. it was perfect.

Review 22:Small range of vegetarian options on the menu and the pool is on the cosy side.

Review 23:Botanica is set in beautiful gardens and the double room with air-con was very well decorated and comfortable. The bar also had a great selection of cocktails and at night time the garden and pool come alive with ambient lighting. An atmospheric place to stay.

Review 25:nothing!

Review 26:The bungalow was really nice: spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, included a porch with a sofa and hammock. The staff was very helpful, arranging for motorbike rental and bus tickets, giving us day trip advice. The place is very green and has a super nice pool.

Review 27:Very helpful and friendly staff (speak English); very customer-oriented owner. The place is magically situated in tropical garden. After day-trips you can cool yourself in the swimming pool or just enjoy lying on the sun beds. Free bycicles are available. It's about 3 km far from the crab market and 5km from the Kep beach.

Review 28:We had a lovely stay at the Botanica. Nothing to fancy but very comfortable, the owners and staff were very helpful in what ever we asked for and made us feel relaxed, which was just want we wanted to do after a bit of travelling around. Would stay again.

Review 29:Please consider that to get to the "city center" or some attractions you need to take a bicycle or tuk tuk, but for us it was no problem.

Review 30:Outstanding place, owners, staff, food - the place to stay in Kep!! Great value for money.

Review 31:Nothing, should have stayed an extra day or two. Internet in room was low and had to connect sometimes, great and fast everywhere else.

Review 32:Everything, great food, facilities and staff. Plan to try the peppercorn sauce with crabs or steak. Pool, room and facilities were all great, staff very helpful with everything.

Review 33:You have to get a tuk tuk which is 3USD to the market. But most hotels are away from the town, so either or you will have to pay that price to get there from anywhere you stay.

Review 34:I loved everything of this place. We ended up staying an extra day, two nights in total because we liked it so much! The swimming pool and the garden are amazing. Clean and very well maintained. We stayed in a room with fan and we slept very well at night. I will definitely return if I'll have the chance to go to Kep again.

Review 35:The family who ran the guesthouse was fantastic. They were very friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was delicious and hit the spot each morning! The pool was very clean and it was a nice little relaxing oasis for us to hang out in.

Review 36:- Only one staff was helpful, others don't understand English and can not offer full service they have. - Booking.com offer one price but we have to pay 4$US extra without explain reason.

Review 37:Quite. Comfort. Clean.

Review 38:Bit far out if town but we like hiring mopeds to get out and see the countryside do great for us.

Review 39:Friendly staff Wonderful pool Private from other bungalows although fairly close Food was very nice

Review 40:Very nice guesthouse and very comfortable. Everybody has his own little bungalow with a little terrace (sofa and hammock) great to relax surrounded by a beautiful garden. The swimming pool was great after a hot day outside, and is very clean. A little bit far from the crab market or the beach but it is very easy to get there by bicycle (which are free).

Review 72:Very friendly and cozy place to be. Got wonderful advice on what to do. Loved their shakes!

Review 73:Room, swimming pool, restaurant, staff.

Review 74:I must stay that is not close to the "centre" even tho theres free bikes that the guesthouse provides. Also, the food its quite expensive and theres not that many options, specially if you are vegetarian but the staff is lovely enough to tailor some dishes for you.

Review 75:I absolutely LOVED this place. Initially booked it for 2 nights but end up staying over a week. The bungalows are gorgeous, clean, safe, cozy, modern, but better, they are surrounded by a stunning garden which offers so much privacy. Also had the coolest sofas and hammocks in each bungalows door. Read a couple of books while there, amazing. The swimming pool area is awesome too. Would go back again in a heartbeat.
