This place was the best hotel we had in Cambodia. The rooms were clean, the garden was a beautiful place to just relax in and staff was very friendly and helpful when we were looking for sights around kep and to find a bus to Siem Reap.

Kep is a lovely place to chill out for a few days. The Boat House complements that notion perfectly. Two beautiful converted houses with immaculate, furnished, cool rooms at very reasonable rates. Set in beautiful gardens and surrounded by countryside. Delicious breakfast at on-site restaurant and lovely lounge areas to read and write and while away the days. Lovely, helpful... More

Intended to just stay here for one night to recover from Sihanoukville before heading off into Vietnam, but ended up staying an extra couple. Whilst there isn't an awful lot to do in Kep, it was a great place to just sit chill out and regroup. The staff are endlessly friendly, helpful and accommodating; good wifi connection; great location make... More

I spent one night in The Boat House 2 on my way from Kampot to Ha Ien and thought it was one of the better budget hotels in SEA. My room was really clean and comfortable, the grounds were really beautiful and the staff was so nice and helpful! On a map it looks to be located farther from town... More

We stayed in the Boat House 2, which seems to be part of the same place. The rooms are clean and you only need a fan to keep it cool. The staff are friendly enough but get easily confused, so make sure they understand what you want. Its just off the main road, close to Kep Beach and the bus... More

My room was very big with a very comfy bed and air con and for 15 dollars a night , it was excellent quality price value. The staff is most helpful... More

Considering the fact that as we arrived, I was very sick and unable to move far for very long, this was a wonderful stay. The Landlord drove us into town more than once, when we arrived our room smelt damp and so we asked to be moved, and were upgraded to the lovely wooden huts at the top of the... More

We stayed for two nights. The room we stayed in was very nice, bathroom is basic but OK. Food is very good, star is really pollute and help full. Nice place to stay after a visit to Phnon Pen; first thing we noticed was the absence of (city) noise.

On first look, this place looks great for the price. Then try to sleep at night... We had the room downstairs next to the restaurant. It didn't have a mosquito net, but we were told its not a problem, we can just close the window (not a viable solution since it is 28 degrees at night). Our friends upstairs had... More

The boathouse is just off the main road, relatively easy to spot their signage. The breakfast is pretty decent, and the staff are nice and can communicate well in English. He provided us a map to explore Kep National Park and recommended us to go Kimly for the famous pepper crab. It's just a 5min ride away. We got the... More
