Australian Woman Dies at Angkor International Hotel, Phnom Penh

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Yesterday an Australian woman with no visa and no money got arrested while wearing a wifebeater.

Rooms were $10 a night and quire dirty and run down. There was a somewhat sleazy bar on the ground floor called the Temple Bar. I think they offered a specialty drink that included Viagra. I remember a story about some Japanese women being tied up and robbed in one of the rooms.

I understand that the place was renovated at some point, but I'm guessing it's still a sleazy flophouse.
One of the working girls from that bar tried to rob me when staying up stairs, i seen the door handle turning so i opened the door & she said sorry i have wrong room. An English bloke ran it who also worked as a DJ on riverside, did a local radio gig as well. I remember the barman had such a nice eye that the other couldn't stop looking at it, would of cost a lot in spillage.

Well lets get our facts straight here.. I lived on st 148 when I first arrived in 2003 about 20 or 30 meters from Ankor International Hotel, and it was never a dirt road then.

I was in Phnom Penh recently and needed a room, so I stopped at Angkor International. $30 they asked for a twin room.

Laughed in the guy's face, left. Shithole.

Interestingly a girl with huge knockers whom I remembered sucking many people's cocks around 172 years ago was working behind reception and she gave a wry smile.

I stayed at the Angkor International in 2014? It wasn't a shithole then. Not a lot going on downstairs. They'd recently put in a new lift. $22 for the premium for walkins, if I remember correctly.

No, you're wrong. Dirt road. Not paved. 2004.
