Tucked in Daun Penh, Palace Gate Hotel & Resort by EHM has quietly become one of the more interesting upscale property options in Phnom Penh. Geographically speaking it's within an easy walk of the city centre, and the reasonable location rating in guest reviews backs that up. Rooms feel polished; the touches travellers mention most are reliable wi-fi, on-site parking and an in-house restaurant, and the comfort feedback has been consistently flattering. The vibe lands somewhere between residential and editorial, which is rarer than it sounds. With well over 1,100 reviews on the books and a genuinely glowing average, the reception from guests does most of the talking here. Reputation has held up across enough stays to mean something. Expect to pay something in the region of €61 a night, a middle-of-the-road entry on the board, especially when stacked against nearby alternatives. All told, Palace Gate Hotel & Resort by EHM reads as one of those Phnom Penh addresses worth lining up against the obvious choices before booking.
