The property is on a quiet street and has a very chilled vibe. Beautiful garden and pool area surrounded by mango trees and a sitting eating area. Staff are warm and friendly and the rooms are clean with comfortable beds. Easy access to street markets, museums and the Royal Palace as well as the riverside.

Horrible experience, The alley to this hotel was on was absolutely disgusting garbage and very poor condition Road. Do not use the laundry service extremely expensive I was charged $7 for 5 items and they lost my laundry bag and would not do anything about it. The room was noisy you could hear everything from the street below. Tuk Tuc drivers outside were like leaches and wanted to charge double what pass app charged so be careful, use the app you will get a better price and friendly service.

Blue lime just fine
Good value for money, good location and breakfast was just fine( good coffee).The guy who worked nights was particularly nice as was breakfast guy who also was my tuk tuk driver! Prefer no plastic water bottles just a refill option and glass bottles. Ask for rooms on lower floors or you’ll feel like u did a step class just getting to your room.

The hotel was affordable and in a great location. Very easy to walk to the Grand Palace and other areas, decent free breakfast. Pool area looked nice but we didn't get a chance to use it. Staff was nice and helpful, though communication was difficult at times. The rooms are very basic. They need a deep clean, paint job, and upgrade. It was clean enough, but definitely not a place I felt completely comfortable.

Our stay at Blue Lime was absolutely the best experience! The airline lost our luggage, and if it was not for the help of all of the staff, specifically "Jack" and "Reach", our trip to Cambodia could have been a disaster. They coordinated the delivery of our luggage to us as well as taking incredible care of us during our stay. So much care, that we decided to change our plans at the end of our trip to go back and stay several more nights. Beautiful property, pool was wonderful, gardens were amazing, bed was sooooo comfortable, a/c did the trick and walking distance to the river front, royal palace and delicious food. Also, we absolutely LOVED the friendly tuk-tuk drivers that were willing to take us to various sites (Mr. Thoun was our favorite, and he went above and beyond). Overall, we WILL be back to Blue Lime to see our friends.

Far far from "fabulous."
Far from "fabulous," I couldn't wait to leave. Morning was metal grinding from next door, evenings was thunderous club music from a nearby bar into the wee hours. Room furnishings were early Khmer Rouge. Toilet seat was totally broken and wifi dodgy as hell. Informed mgm't who said "We'll check," which loosely translated means "Don't hold your breath." Pool and lobby are pretty for photos, but the rest of the place hasn't been touched in 30 years. Another fellow begged for 3 days just to get fresh towels. Also rife with mosquitos. Breakfast very basic. For a laugh, order the pancakes. You'll see. In a decade of travel, this may rank as the most overrated place I have stayed. One calls into question the veracity of the positive reviews.

It was like an oasis in a city that is pretty hot and dirty. Pool was great staff were helpful. The only reason I didn’t give it an excellent is that we had the wrong room at first (double bed and we had requested 2twins). But they changed it as soon as they could.

The staff was exceptional, the location ideal, and the pool common area was an oasis. Our room was a bit loud at night - pigeons and a weird generator noise - but this is probably only the case on the top floor and we still very much cherished our time there.

The check-in staff were extremely pleasant. The hotel seems to cater mainly for the Chinese market. But this is not a problem, in fact probably a bonus as the pool was always empty. The breakfast was nothing special, but then it's not a 5 star hotel. So all in all, I would say it's OK if you want to go to a budget hotel that is a bit different.

Delightful property in the heart of PP
The property in itself is a hidden gem as it is located in a busy, rather dirty and dusty part of PP. once you enter the property all is forgotten. The service was superb. All requests were met with a smile. Most of the amenities offered were very thoughtful (multi extension cord etc). Few issues with water drainage in the bathroom sink etc were noted.

DONT TRUST THOSE HIGH SCORE REVIEWS. Yes, the hotel is located in good location and look kinda nice at the lobby and pool area, but the room conditions are poor. Our first room, the door lock got problem, so we had to change it. The staff was very attentive though, I would give them credits for this. The property is way too aged. Bed was bad, worn down and mattress is too soft; we had a backache woken up. The linen got a lot of sand and dust too, as if they haven't cleaned before we checked in. Shower leaked, no hairdryer, and no elevator.

Beautiful property, small but nice breakfast, awesome private plunge pool. Staff is friendly but disorganized--I was asked to pay for a driver/ride that never showed up to pick me up (!), and they missed giving me a requested wake up call.

Our room was small but we went for the cheapest one. The location is excellent. Dozens of restaurants nearby and a short walk to the river. The hotel is down an alley and very quiet. Staff is helpful. Breakfast was great. We had a dinner and lunch there that were also very good. It will be my go to place when I am visiting Phnom Penh.

Beauty and great service in the heart of the city
Beautiful property set down a small alley within walking distance of the river, Royal Palace and National Museum. The rooms are well appointed, clean, spacious and bright. The staff is very kind and helpful. Breakfast, which was included, is very well done and the additional items on the menu were also included such as bacon or museli. We enjoyed a late night swim in the pool after a long, hot, somber day at the Genocide Museum and Killing Fields (both highly recommended to really understand Cambodia’s history). The building is charming but as is common in older building it should be noted that there isn’t an elevator and the stairs are rather steep, most rooms are upstairs. We had 3rd floor rooms and had no problem but if we had a lot of heavy luggage or physical limitations it could have been challenging so if that is you mention it when you book. Power adapters for Americans are a necessity, items only slowly trickle charged without. Plenty of bottled water was provided and just ask if you need more.
