Kampot Train Station is 2.8 km from Karma Traders Kampot, while Teuk Chhou Rapids is 10 km away. The nearest airport is Sihanouk International Airport, 83 km from the hostel.

This guesthouse has such a great vibe! It was so nice it exceeded our expectations. The room and bathroom were spacious and clean. The guesthouse is located in a quiet area a bit further from the city center which makes it quiet to sleep at night but still close enough to go by bike or tuktuk. Not that you really need it since there's a lot of fun stuff organized (we were lucky enough to experience Taco Tuesday and live music!) It's also easy to get to know other travelers in the common spaces. We loved that the owner works alongside the staff and always greets you with a smile! As for the staff, the volunteers that work there are the best as well as Vin and Rath at the reception who helped us out with everything we needed. We honestly were very sad we had to leave, but will be back for sure!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I stayed at the Downtown at first. Clean room, good facilities. Nice, quiet area. After a day, I got booked to the Waterpark Hostel (yes, they are two different places) with no extra charge. Here, I had the single BEST time.

    We loved this place. It’s situated right in the riverfront and the staff is amazing. They serve the best pancakes we’ve had in our trip. It’s a few kilometers out of town, but not a problem if you have a moped or taxi is cheap. The host helped us out with moped, routes and maps of where to go as well as transfer at a reasonable price. They also have 2 cute and friendly dogs that run around the property.

    During my travels, this was the nicest backpackhostel I stayed in thus far. Nice dormbed 'pods', good food and very nice staff. The best thing though, is the people it attracts. Maybe I got lucky but I've met very nice backpackers here!

    Lovely staff, gorgeous sunsets, good comfort food, and cheap booze. I don't normally stay in hostels, but the atmosphere here is great - it really couldn't have been better. If you can, stay on Sunday because they have a FANTASTIC pub quiz.

    This place is great, especially if you are on a budget. Excellent views of the mountains and river and very peaceful away from the traffic. Its a budget backpackers place and has a great little atmosphere. Good food, cheap beer and just a short ride from town. What more could you want?
