Aussie forgets what hotel he's staying at in Siem Reap and has been looking for two days

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Yeah. I've done it. :oops:
But only took me 4 hours to find my way back - from 5am to 9am from memory. Won't happen again. And at least it's not on facebook. :plus1:

Yup, It's obviously a Gay hotel as it asks "when the lodger goes Queen".

The rest of it, double dutch to me.

Lost my hotel but found myself and a bottle of scotch. Reminds me of those stories people tell when they’re in denial about what a dirty country India is. Did he find the hotel yet?

Haha, I did that once too, almost 20 years ago in Bangkok. Who knew it would take a couple of hours driving around looking for a hotel with the name 'Royal' in it?

Really, how do it I do that? If I want to know where I went the night before on nights of my Kavanaugh-esque blackouts.
