About Park Hyatt Siem Reap
- Bill Bensley designed the white dome ceiling and façade specifically to echo the interior silhouette of Angkor Wat's towers, making the hotel itself an architectural quotation of the monument it exists to serve.
- The original Hôtel de la Paix (1957) was commandeered by the Khmer Rouge after 1975 and used as a rice storage depot; Bensley demolished the structure entirely in 2001 and built anew while preserving Art Deco DNA from the original.
- Park Hyatt Siem Reap was named DestinAsian Readers' Choice Best Hôtel in Cambodia 2025 and holds a Michelin One Key, the brand's first Michelin recognition in Cambodia.
