Concierge "Set in the grounds of a former French ambassador's vacation home along the west bank of the Siem Reap River, it's a very pleasant mix of colonial and contemporary styles."
DK Eyewitness "A byword for style in Cambodia, the FCC fuses contemporary cool with elegant Indochinese decor, open-plan restaurants, and stylish bars."
Rough Guide "This branch of the FCC in Phnom Penh is more modern but with just as much character, surrounded by trees in a picturesque riverfront location."

Fodor's "Yet another in a line of resorts with black-and-white decor, the FCC Angkor takes a former French consulate and turns it into an inviting retreat along the river." Full review
Afar Magazine "The restaurant's international menu has something for everyone, and the food, while a little inconsistent, is pretty good. But I love the FCC for a drink more than anything. " Full review

Lonely Planet "This funky property is a member of Design Hotels and wouldn’t look out of place in any chic European capital." Full review
Michelin Guide "Guest rooms look out over either the orderly gardens of the old French mansion or the hotel’s stunning centerpiece, a black-bottomed salt-water swimming pool. Interiors are dark and masculine, minimal" Full review

Gone are the cold bucket showers and unavoidable creepy crawlies of the originals: guests at this tropical outpost of the Zannier group (their other property is a rustic-chic chalet in Mègeve) can indulge in king-size comfort, freestanding baths and private plunge pools or terraces.
