Staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly. We stayed in a double and superior room, as we upgraded for a room with a bigger window. The french style decor is beautiful and finished to a high standard. The beds are comfy. Breakfast is delicious with breads, fruit and home made cakes as a starter. Free water refill to save on plastics. It's on a side road so surprisingly quiet and a good location, a few minutes to the river front and restaurants.

The location is a good base for trips eg Botree pepper farm, bokor mountain, but not much to see in the town.

We stayed for 3 nights at the Columns and loved every bit of it. The hotel is very centrally located but yet in a quiet street. All restaurants, bars in the center etc are within walking distance. It is safe to walk back to the hotel at night. The hotel covers the area of four historic shop houses which have been renovated with a lot of taste and respect of the historic details. The room we stayed in (Deluxe superior) was very comfortable and again with very nice, tasteful interiors. The owners including all staff were very friendly, providing an excellent level of service and great hospitality. We were helped booking the excursions in the region and finding a driver for our trip back to Phnom Penh. Everything worked out perfectly well. We can recommend the Columns to anybody staying in Kampot.

This small boutique hotel is gorgeous. It consists of 3 French colonial buildings knocked into one. Two stories over the ground floor only. Lovely decor. A huge thank you to the owner for investing in this property and preserving these beautiful historical buildings. The manager was delightful. Spoke excellent English, was very erudite & helpful. He gave me a lot of his time and really understands the concept of service with a smile. The other staff were lovely. The bellboy was so so attentive. Lovely lovely room. Everything I like in a room was there. Great air conditioning and ceiling fan. I got a great night's sleep. Spotlessly clean. Highly highly recommended.

Breakfast was super tasty but I would have liked it to be a bit bigger. In fairness, I got more super fresh baguette bread and gorgeous fruit when I asked.

Set within a beautiful, vintage French building, the hotel's decor exudes timeless charm. Its central location allows for easy exploration of the city and riverside. The staff, particularly the manager, are both friendly and efficient, enhancing the overall experience with their warm hospitality and helpfulness.

Nothing that we don’t like about this hotel , but we think the breakfast could be better than that by giving more options.

great location, right in the city center, delicious breakfast, cozy room, excellent personnel. we originally planned to stay for 2 days, but extended to 4. We will definitely come back.

It would be great to extend the late checkout timing with 50% room payment to 6 pm (currently it is 4 pm).

The Columns is a beautifully designed Boutique hotel in the centre of Kampot. Its location is close to many Cafes and restaurants and a two minutes walk from the Riverside. The staff is super-friendly with very good English knowledge. Breakfast was amazing and yummy. I can only recommend to stay in The Columns.

This was the second time I have stayed at The Columns with an 8 year break. Nothing much had changed, remaining a calm tranquil oasis. The staff were charming and they made our stay so personal and memorable. Breakfast was delicious.

Pillows were too big and full for me, would have liked a softer one. I stayed in a room with a balcony on the 2nd floor which was pretty hot on arrival and when returning after a day out.

Very friendly stuff. The interieur has style, same as the building. The breakfast was delicious.

In my room I was annoyed by the noise of the water pump for the building. There was o hot water during my 2 days stay. Because of pchum ban hollyday the room was overpriced.
