On The Passage
Old Market Area
Siem Reap
Cambodia
Be Yourself. The hotel gets personal. No room numbers – just three beautifully created design experiences.. Hotel Be Angkor lavishes its cherished guests with a choice of three rooms, Saffron, Bamboo, or Sepia, each showcasing the work of a different locally-based artist. Hotel Be Angkor is the creative inspiration of American hotelier Martin Dishman and is a part of The One Hotel Collection.
The personality of each room shows through in individualized furnishings, works of art, and architectural flourishes that ensure each stay is unique and a far cry from the generic boxes and hallways of clones in the average hotel. Here you find welcoming spaces, lovingly created art and furnishings that were picked by hand or sketched out on paper and imagined in detail so that they bring out exactly the right emotion and impression for that corner of the room. With only three rooms, you can take pleasure in a level of personalized service impossible in a larger property.
Located in “The Passage”, a small charming lane that is the most happening corner of Siem Reap with neighbors including the newly opened AHA restaurant and wine bar, The One Hotel, Linga Bar, and McDermott Gallery.
Hotel Be Angkor is located on The Passage in the vibrant Old Market Area of Siem Reap. Adjacent to The One Hotel Angkor and across from the chilled-out Linga Bar.The most up and coming corner of Siem Reap, The Passage maintains a serene and intimate vibe – an artsy lane where you can relax with a glass of wine, imbibe an evening cocktail, browse a gallery or relax in the privacy of Angkor’s most unique accommodation.
Corporate Responsibility - Empowering the Individuals of Our Team
We believe in being a positive force as employers in Siem Reap by creating a workplace that makes a difference in the lives of our staff. We offer a superior compensation to our staff to help them and their families towards a better life. In an impoverished country such as Cambodia, our staff can earn two or three times more than the average per capita income. It is more than a sustainable wage; it is a life changing act. Through cross training we encourage career development of our staff. And, we seek out suppliers that we can partner with that share our philosophy.
Sustainable Tourism - Caring for Our Beautiful Surroundings
We continually implement new eco-friendly business practices to lessen the environmental impact of our operations. In this on-going improvement process, we work towards the principles of The International Ecotourism Society ( www.ecotourism.org). This includes recycling, using eco-friendly products where possible, use of solar water heating, encouragement for energy and resource conservation on the part of our guests, and many other efforts.
While we cannot rid the necessity of air travel, we can balance our carbon footprint of our tickets in otherways. The One Hotel Angkor offers guests the opportunity to participate in a carbon offset program ( www.co2.org) to lessen the impact of travel.
While Cambodia does possess immense natural heritage (in terms of environments and wildlife), it is the rich cultural heritage for which the nation is best known. We help to preserve Cambodia’s precious cultural resources through participation in the Heritage Friendly program developed by Heritage Watch ( www.heritagewatch.org).
Locally Based Initiatives - Giving Back to the Community
We partner with local Non-Government Organizations and businesses to arrange ways to give to those in need locally. For many of our guests this is one of the most rewarding elements of their stay.
Our partnership with Shinta Mani affords a range of opportunities for our guests to make a difference.

Other local organizations we support are:
Angkor Children's Hospital - www.angkorhospital.org
Sunrise Children's Village orphanage - www.sunrisechildrensvillage.com
Tabitha Cambodia - www.tabitha.ca
Our aim is to direct the generosity of our guests to the organization they would like to help. While our Good Karma package is designed for this, we offer this service to any guest who is moved to help the lives of impoverished Cambodians.
