Saturday mornings have become hotel inspection time for the sales team at Hanuman Tourism. Its a good opportunity for our young team to visit the hotels in Phnom Penh and to get first-hand experience of the hotels they recommend to our clients. On this morning's visiting list was the brand-new The Quay and Raffles Hotel Le Royal. I've posted a few photos here of The Quay as it really is very new, opening for business on 10 April with panoramic rooms facing the riverfront costing $185. The hotel has eight such rooms and another 8 smaller standard suites at $130. The sixteen rooms are spread over five floors. The design is modern, intimate and environmentally-friendly. You enter through the Chow restaurant and there's a rooftop terrace with bar, pool and jacuzzi, and of course views over the Tonle Sap and Mekong Rivers. The Quay is part of the ever-expanding FCC chain and a welcome addition to the capital's accommodation listings.
