I stayed at Sala Lodges with my two daughters, aged 4 and 10, and it was one of the most memorable hotel stays we have ever had.
We have stayed at many hotels in Japan and overseas, usually choosing comfortable hotels suitable for family travel rather than ultra-luxury properties. Even so, Sala Lodges really stood out. It offered a wonderfully special experience at a surprisingly accessible price.
We arrived earlier than the normal check-in time, and the staff kindly allowed us to check in early. This was especially appreciated after travelling with two young children.
The property is beautiful. The traditional Khmer wooden houses surrounded by lush greenery create a peaceful and authentic atmosphere. I especially loved the trees and plants throughout the property.
Our wooden house was charming yet very comfortable inside. I had read some reviews mentioning mosquitoes, so I was a little concerned before our stay, especially as we were visiting during the rainy season. However, we had no problems at all with the insect repellent spray I brought from Japan. While we were out, the staff also prepared the mosquito net and lowered the curtains around the bed, which was a thoughtful touch.
Considering the quality and atmosphere, the value was exceptional. I am truly grateful to everyone at Sala Lodges for such a wonderful experience. We were genuinely sad to leave and would love to return someday.
