Nothing to dislike about The Columns.

An excellent location in the riverside area of Kampot, near to restaurants and bars. Breakfast was lovely too.

Charming and spacious room in a nicely renovated building. Good and central location

Stayed in January 2025

The location is a good base for trips eg Botree pepper farm, bokor mountain, but not much to see in the town.

Staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly. We stayed in a double and superior room, as we upgraded for a room with a bigger window. The french style decor is beautiful and finished to a high standard. The beds are comfy. Breakfast is delicious with breads, fruit and home made cakes as a starter. Free water refill to save on plastics. It's on a side road so surprisingly quiet and a good location, a few minutes to the river front and restaurants.

It would be great to extend the late checkout timing with 50% room payment to 6 pm (currently it is 4 pm).

great location, right in the city center, delicious breakfast, cozy room, excellent personnel. we originally planned to stay for 2 days, but extended to 4. We will definitely come back.

In my room I was annoyed by the noise of the water pump for the building. There was o hot water during my 2 days stay. Because of pchum ban hollyday the room was overpriced.

Very friendly stuff. The interieur has style, same as the building. The breakfast was delicious.

Pillows were too big and full for me, would have liked a softer one. I stayed in a room with a balcony on the 2nd floor which was pretty hot on arrival and when returning after a day out.

This was the second time I have stayed at The Columns with an 8 year break. Nothing much had changed, remaining a calm tranquil oasis. The staff were charming and they made our stay so personal and memorable. Breakfast was delicious.

Nothing that we don’t like about this hotel , but we think the breakfast could be better than that by giving more options.

Set within a beautiful, vintage French building, the hotel's decor exudes timeless charm. Its central location allows for easy exploration of the city and riverside. The staff, particularly the manager, are both friendly and efficient, enhancing the overall experience with their warm hospitality and helpfulness.

Breakfast was super tasty but I would have liked it to be a bit bigger. In fairness, I got more super fresh baguette bread and gorgeous fruit when I asked.

This small boutique hotel is gorgeous. It consists of 3 French colonial buildings knocked into one. Two stories over the ground floor only. Lovely decor. A huge thank you to the owner for investing in this property and preserving these beautiful historical buildings. The manager was delightful. Spoke excellent English, was very erudite & helpful. He gave me a lot of his time and really understands the concept of service with a smile. The other staff were lovely. The bellboy was so so attentive. Lovely lovely room. Everything I like in a room was there. Great air conditioning and ceiling fan. I got a great night's sleep. Spotlessly clean. Highly highly recommended.

We stayed for 3 nights at the Columns and loved every bit of it. The hotel is very centrally located but yet in a quiet street. All restaurants, bars in the center etc are within walking distance. It is safe to walk back to the hotel at night. The hotel covers the area of four historic shop houses which have been renovated with a lot of taste and respect of the historic details. The room we stayed in (Deluxe superior) was very comfortable and again with very nice, tasteful interiors. The owners including all staff were very friendly, providing an excellent level of service and great hospitality. We were helped booking the excursions in the region and finding a driver for our trip back to Phnom Penh. Everything worked out perfectly well. We can recommend the Columns to anybody staying in Kampot.

Beautifully and tastefully decorated. Old colonial mixed with new.

Stayed in January 2024

Only 1 person of the staff spoke English, the rest no. I was very unwell during my stay there and couldn't eat anything. I asked for plain toast (I got 4 slices in a day) when I asked for more they told me they ran out and had to wait till the following day - it was awful - i couldn't leave my room i was so unwell and no food. also no phone in the room so every time you need something you need to go all the way up and down (not great when you can barely move)

They style of the hotel was nice - room was good - bed was comfortable

We enjoyed our stay very much. This hotel is so Beautiful. The staff was very kind and the breakfast Wonderful.

oversold in every way. Lacking in atmosphere, no bar, over-priced for what it offered and the extremely uncomfortable experience of the same person who checked me in and who - appeared to be - waiting up every night in the lobby, when I returned, including on my second night after 1am running after me trying to give me my laundry. Please. also - very disappointed to see plastic bottles of water in the rooms.
