A 39-story skyscraper hotel might not be what you expect from a luxury hotel in the Cambodian capital, but the Rosewood Phnom Penh is nothing if not surprising.
“Housed in the sleek Vattanac Capital skyscraper, this urban outpost of the ultra-luxe Rosewood brand has established itself as celestial hub in the Cambodian capital.”
“Located on the top 14 floors of Cambodia’s tallest building, the Vattanac Capital Tower, the hotel’s rooms and suites feature 360-degree views of the Pearl of Asia.”
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set along Monivong Boulevard in Daun Penh, the tower sits a short remork ride from the art deco Central Market and Wat Phnom.
The rooms
Dark timber and travertine marble anchor residential spaces, where bedside panels open drapes to sweeping views of the Mekong River.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The 22-meter indoor mosaic lap pool on the 33rd floor is lined with daybeds looking out over the city.
The spa
Sense Spa offers Khmer herbal poultice therapies alongside specialized treatments at the Bastien Gonzalez studio.
The gym
The 24-hour fitness studio looks out over the skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows beside cardio and weight machines.
At the table
Dining spans robata-grilled dishes at Japanese izakaya Iza and artisanal steaks served high on the 38th floor.
The 175 rooms (including 37 suites) boast striking panoramas over the city, possessing the air of an art gallery filled with beds...
How it began
Opened in 2018 atop the 188-meter Vattanac Capital Tower, the skyscraper was sculpted to evoke an ascending dragon facing east for prosperity.
“The Rosewood Phnom Penh will occupy the top 14 floors of the stunning 39-storey Vattanac Capital Tower, which has panoramic views of the city and the Mekong River.”
