REP: Siem Reap has a large number of hotels for a place of its size, and in all price categories. I stayed at Auberge Mont Royal 3 years ago for about the same price currently offered. It was basic and fine for what it was.

Thanks for the tip. I was pretty much set on LM because we will be sightseeing and thought it would be a waste to splurge for Amansara or the other top hotels (HDLP,Rd'A, etc).
Unless things have changed, there are no 2 day passes to Angkor, only 1 and 3 days. Be sure to bring a picture of each of you for the pass since it is laminated into the pass.
Thanks! we will!
My recommendation for a KK restaurant is "Port View" It is located on the harbor front across from the LM. Prices are somewhat high for Borneo, but much less than you will pay in much of the Western World including Singapore. When you enter, you will see the tanks on the right of the entryway. Ask any of the ladies for pricing and preparation style. The restaurant touts itself as Chinese seafood, but one can get a number on preparations if you know what you want. Seafood is priced by the kilo and they will tell you if there is a minimum weight required. Price includes the preparation that you request.
I like seafood, this is great! I'm not too familiar with the different preparations, I'll look around for some.
There are other restaurants around the city; I'm sure that the conceirge at the Tanjung Anu can provide recommendations. The dinner buffet at Rasa Ria was expensive, expansive and good so I'm sure that the other property's will be as well. Frankly, if you are into them, buffets at most higher end hotels in Asia, and even many lesser ones, are really good. Please remember that sanitary standards in Malaysia are normally quite good. I cannot say the same for Cambodia.
We were actually thinking of getting the rate including buffet dinners, as it is not more expensive than a B&B rate, and it includes free wireless among other amenities. Or we could get a club rate. Leaning towards Rasa Sia more than TA now.
Thanks!
