Weird Chinese hotel. No English spoken. Very dirty rundown room where most of the light switches do not work, no shower curtain in the bathroom, no bath plug, no bath mats, ugly window view. Very noisy in the mornings; cleaners screaming & shouting, loud machinery banging for over 1 hour! A truly awful hotel.

Staff was unable to locate our reservation. The room was visibly dirty, no wifi, large towel on the bed for a blanket, and a lock was broken on the door. Additionally, not a safe area for a lady traveling alone, which thankfully I wasn’t.

Worst Hotel EVER!
I stayed at the hotel in March 2020 when I visited the wonderful city of Phnom Penh and unfortunately I had a very disappointing stay. The main issues were as follows: - Rooms are absolutely filthy (please see photos that speak for themselves!) - The hotel charge a deposit, give no receipt, and then deny upon check out that you ever paid a deposit so in effect steal from their customers. - Daytime receptionist polite and friendly but night time receptionist is extremely, extremely, extremely rude! - Night time receptionist plays videos so loudly on her phone that it can be heard from guest rooms. Overall, a very disappointing stay.

I switch from Lucky Star to Lucky Star 3 is it is a new hotel and I was curious to see how I would like it it is basically the same design as Lucky Star to but the bed mattresses sheets and pillows were fantastic it was the most comfortable bed I've slept in in Asia it is a non-smoking Hotel which I appreciate it also they were only renting floors to the 7th floor but it does go to 10 I went up to 11 and got a view of the city in the Olympic Stadium that is it is not finished yet but what a wonderful View as in all Lucky Star Hotel sometimes they have wedding receptions but in my 10 years of staying there I have only quiet after 10 as I think that is the rule of the wedding receptions the staff is wonderful

They only gave a tiny soap (didn't get replenished every day, often had to ask), the air conditioner didn't work properly, and they only provided a very thin blanket - i asked for more blankets but they said they didn't have any. Overall you get what you pay for, and the staff tried their best to be friendly and helpful given the language limitations.

Probably one to avoid
Booked online and arrived late. Didn't seem to have my booking and the pictured hotel was full so I was told to go next door which is part of the complex I think. However they wanted me to pay which I didn't want to do as I had already paid online. Staff did not speak good English and I spoke to someone by phone and emailed my booking which got it sorted. Large room but not in particularly good condition or clean. Near the airport, a few dollars in a tuk tuk which is why I stayed. Booked same day as my prior accommodation had no air con or windows. Staff did seem helpful but I think had I stayed here as a female solo or inexperienced traveler might have felt very uneasy.

Close to town, had all the amenities. Easy for tuktuk drivers to find which was a relief. Would have been nice if a laundry service was offered as I couldn't find one in Phnom Penh at all.

Clean, spacious, but useless balcony
We booked the room with furnished balcony. However, there was no any furniture on the balcony and it opened to a wall of half-constructed building so there was no any view and actually the balcony was useless. Balconies with view seemed to start from next floor. The staff promised to change the room next day but it didn't happen. Generally, the room was clean and very spacious.

You get what you pay for...
The location is about a 3 dollar tuk tuk into the centre, but if you're planning on the killing fields etc then it's all dispersed outside of the centre anyway so you're going to spend on tuk tuks regardless. It's in a very 'local' part of town in the sense that some restaurants wing serve you if you're western. Bit off-putting. We managed ok though and area was quiet- which we wanted. The room did not exactly look like the online photos (photoshop!!), but it was adequate. Our main issue was that the maids did not sweep under the beds so there was rotting goodness knows what under there- which attracted ants! They were helpful enough to clear this up but it didn't completely get rid of the ant problem. This didn't ruin our stay and for £9 a night, I suppose it's to be expected, especially since the surrounding streets are in much worse state!

Bad experience
The website infomed that the following are available in the room among other facilities: cofee/tea maker, furnished balcony, phone,in-room safe, plasma TV (it was a normal TV available), slippers, wired high-speed internet. NONE of these facilities were available in the room. In addition, the wifi signals was so poor I could not use internet at all. The door to the room balcony is not lockable. It was facing to a busy kitchen, an ugly and disgusting view. The hotel management flatly refused that these facilities are not available in their hotel. What I got only a pair of slippers. Information provided in the website was misleading. Otherwise, I would have chosen another hotel.

Fine hotel but mostly locals
Were satisfied with our one night at Lucky Star, as we were in transit between Battambang and Sihanoukville and had already seen the city. Some of the front desk staff spoke great English, while others spoke little. The hotel was mostly locals there for a wedding. Lockers available in the lobby. Room was basic but fine. Breakfast was a bit odd (across the street in a different hotel's restaurant) and service was slow.

Lucky Star Hotel in Phnom Penh
Although this place is not near the water front and some drivers do not know where is it, the location is still alright coz theres a shopping mall just 10min walk away with good shopping and many eating places and a super mart as well. Russian market and central market just a 10min ride away. Staff is quite friendly, especially the english-speaking lady and there is a security guard who goes around the hotel. So overall feel quite safe here. Opposite is a restuarant where everynight it seemed to have wedding dinners. I stayed a total of 3 nights, and the first night my room was small. When I returned 2 nights later from Sihanoukville, they gave me a bigger room with nicer beds. The toilet was not too clean though and there r so bugs in the room but its still alright. Theres a balcony too where it overlooked the roads. Wifi is stable throughout my whole stay and the tv has alot of cable channels. There's a lift too.

Miles away from the action
Not walking distance to city centre, only locals stay here and tuk tuk driver got lost taking us back and drove us around for a hour in what looked like a dark, dingy suburb. PLenty more right on waterfront you can turn up to and get a good price for.

Hôtel excentré
L'hôtel ne se situe pas dans le quartier touristique de la ville, il est plutôt excentré. Il est à environ 35-45min de taxi de l'aéroport, donc il convient pour une première nuit, à condition de ne pas y passer à plusieurs jours. La propreté laisse à désirer, mais avantage notable : il y a l'air conditionné ! Par contre pas de serviette, ni de savon, ou encore pas de restaurant à proximité.

Kaksi yötä hotellissa
Huone oli todella pimeä, koska vieressä oleva rakennut peitti päivänvalon. Osa lampuista vain toimi. Viereisissä rakennuksissa vietetään häitä joka ilta ja meteli on sen mukaista. Varustetaso ei vastannut, mitä hotelli ilmoitti. Ei ollut vedenkeitintä, kalusteita parvekkeella, tohveleita, kylpytakkia (vaikka en olisi kahta viimeistä tarvinnutkaan) ja jääkaappi oli todella likainen. Vessapaperin saanti kesti kaksi päivää. Muuten ihan ok, maksoimme 12 euroa yöltä ja se vastasi hintalaatusuhdetta.
