“We are delighted to anticipate our second property in Cambodia, providing the Rosewood customer a link between the charm of the capital and the culturally rich destination of Siem Reap,” says Sonia Cheng, chief executive officer of Rosewood Hotel Group. “We’re very grateful for the confidence of Vattanac properties to manage two such significant new properties in the country.”

“We could think of no more fitting brand than Rosewood Hotels & Resorts to manage this exquisite resort in Siem Reap �" its A Sense of Place guiding concept ensures a sensitive and beautiful reflection of this unique destination,” says Sam Ang Vattanac, executive director of Vattanac Properties. “Our collaboration will certainly elevate the concept of ultra-luxury in the Kingdom of Cambodia.”

Rosewood Siem Reap will join sister property Rosewood Phnom Penh, opening in 2016. The landmark 175 room Rosewood Phnom Penh will occupy the top 14 floors of the 39-storey Vattanac Capital Tower One, the tallest building in the capital, situated in the heart of the Central Business District.
