The Balé Phnom Penh hotel is a unique, elegant and very luxurious collection of 18 large, private, sumptuous suites, showcasing the best of modern Asian architecture and design and gourmet cuisine.

The resort stands on the banks of the majestic Mekong River, with breathtaking views across the dazzling waters.

You arrive in great style, sweeping down a dramatic corridor, past a serene Buddha and along a pink palimanan sandstone walkway across a black-bottomed infinity pond.

Around the property are lemongrass and spider lilies, fragrant frangipani trees and vivid-green Lee Kuan Yew plants.

Swim in the cool riverside pool, relax with a sublime treatment in the intimate spa, and dine by candlelight on fine cuisine under the tropical stars.

One-bedroom Courtyard Suites (100 sq. m) offer large living/sleeping areas with a generous sofa/daybed and coffee table, plus a King-size bed ‘floating’ on a wooden plinth.

Spacious bathrooms have dual sinks, walk-in rainforest showers and romantic bathtubs, while the private outside courtyard has a daybed and fragrant frangipani – an ideal spot for alfresco dining or quiet meditation.

The Balé Phnom Penh sets a new luxury benchmark for South East Asia. The sister hotel to the well-regarded resort in Bali, the arrival of the Bale in Phnom Penh has opened up new levels of luxury accommodation in the city.

The private villas are simply magnificent and the hotel is perfect for those looking for luxury and tranquility in Cambodia's capital city.
