Since I'm planning my holidays of January 2014, I'm considering 3 nights at the Sara or at the La Residence Angkor. I'm not too impressed by the design of the Sara; I find it rather neutral and without any local inspiration but it might be the pictures of the website... I don't know.
After that I'll fly to Vietnam either to the Six Senses Ninh Van Bay or to the Nam Hai.
I was especially glad to discover that not everyone started by staying 2 weeks in one shot at Aman resorts and that it could also be the splurge of 2 nights out of 10. In that case Musken, can you please tell me in what kind of accomodation you were staying aside from the Aman for the remaining nights?
I think Amansara is quite impressive in that it was the former residence of the King IIRC. If you check I do believe the Financial Times (the other FT) had a review on it a while back- perhaps in the "How to Spend It" magazine?
La Residence is also a nice property but be careful not to get a room that overlooks the ditch.
The Park Hyatt should be open by the time you are visiting as well- when it was the Hotel de la Paix I stayed there a couple of times and really liked this hotel although do get a room looking into the courtyard as street facing rooms are quite noisy. I also very much appreciated the former restaurant- no idea what the new management will do.
