The essentials in 30 seconds
- Verdict: In the 40 to 60 dollar band a Siem Reap hotel typically adds a pool and a restaurant to a private air-conditioned room, and the large, steady hotels of our directory are the strongest picks.
- Top picks: Hotel Somadevi Angkor Resort & Spa (4.4 on more than 2,200 reviews), Tara Angkor Hotel (4.4 on more than 1,800) and Angkor Miracle Resort & Spa (4.4 on more than 1,100).
- Where: Mondol II, Preah Sihanouk Avenue and National Road 6, 4.6 to 6.0 km in a straight line from Angkor Wat.
- Price: Our directory holds the Google tier ($$), not a rate. Confirm that the live Agoda or Booking.com price for your dates falls between 40 and 60 dollars.
- Trade-off: Larger hotels give you facilities and volume. The 60 to 80 band gives smaller boutique houses with higher ratings.
Forty to sixty dollars a night is the sharpest value range in Siem Reap: enough for a hotel with real facilities, short of boutique pricing. Because our directory stores a Google tier and not a nightly rate, this page ranks the hotels by rating and review volume, and you confirm the live rate on Agoda and Booking.com.
The page belongs to Siem Reap hotels between 40 and 80 dollars a night. If your budget stretches further, the sister page on hotels between 60 and 80 dollars covers the step up.
What This Band Usually Includes
Rates swing with the season, so the hotels below can sit in this band in the rainy season and in the next band in high season. The safest guide is what each hotel lists on its own website. Three facilities repeat across the large hotels of the directory.
Three verified inclusions
- Pool: Hotel Somadevi lists a 40 by 15 metre outdoor pool with a jacuzzi, and Tara Angkor Hotel lists a pool with a jacuzzi.
- Restaurant and bars: Tara Angkor Hotel lists two restaurants and a lobby bar, and Angkor Miracle lists a restaurant, a pool bar and room service.
- Wellness: Bayon Spa at Hotel Somadevi, Tara Spa at Tara Angkor Hotel and Karma Spa at Angkor Miracle each sit on site, alongside a gym.
Breakfast depends on the rate you choose. Expedia describes the Hotel Somadevi buffet breakfast as a paid extra, so read the line on the platform for your dates.

How to Choose Between Them
Tara Angkor Hotel is the closest of the group to the temples at 4.6 km and offers a sauna and a gym next to the pool. Hotel Somadevi sits a short walk from Pub Street and the Night Market and lists a convenience store on site. Angkor Miracle lies on National Road 6 and suits travellers who plan to use the pool, the spa and the gym, since the resort feels more like a retreat than a town hotel.
Families can read budget family hotels under 80 dollars, and couples can read hotels for couples and solo travellers.
Which Hotel Suits Which Traveller
Match the hotel to the trip
- First-time visitors who want Pub Street on foot: Hotel Somadevi, a five-minute walk from the street according to its own website.
- Travellers who want the shortest ride to the temples: Tara Angkor Hotel, 4.6 km in a straight line from Angkor Wat.
- Guests who plan to relax at the hotel: Angkor Miracle, with a pool, a pool bar, a gym and the Karma Spa in one compound.
- Couples who like design and a calmer pace: Memoire D'Angkor, with a pool and its own spa.
- Readers who value the highest ratings: Golden Temple Hotel, 4.8 on more than 590 reviews. Its facilities list is not confirmed here, so read it on the booking page.
The same logic applies to the length of stay. For two nights near the temples, a short ride matters most. For five nights, the pool, the spa and a quiet evening matter more, and the larger hotels earn their place.
How the Season Moves the Band
High season runs from November to February, when skies are dry and rooms fill early. The rainy season, roughly May to October, brings softer rates and greener temples. A hotel that sits in the next band up in December can fall into this one in the rainy months, so run the same hotel on your exact dates before ruling it out.
Moving your trip by two or three weeks can change the band more than moving to another hotel does. Our page on hotel prices by month helps you choose the window.
Against the 60 to 80 Dollar Band
What changes when you go up
- Size and scale: the 40 to 60 group is larger, with more facilities and more reviews.
- Design: the 60 to 80 group favours boutique hotels with Khmer styling and ratings of 4.8 to 5.0.
- Rooms: the upper band lists bigger room categories, such as the 45 to 60 square metre rooms at Shintana Saya La Maison.
- Flexibility: both bands overlap in the rainy season, so check both pages for your dates.
When you want a boutique feel, open hotels between 60 and 80 dollars. When you prefer a sleeker budget, look at cheap hotels in Siem Reap.
