The Seng Hout is a lovely hotel with a range of great services right in the centre of Battambang. Directly opposite is the Central Market where you can buy everything from fresh (still living) fish to gemstones. The Hotel is wonderfully clean and relatively quiet - there is a market right next to it, but its not a problem. There is a breakfast if you wish to use the coffee shop attached to the hotel, but it's American style pancakes and sweet stuff so not to a Brits taste, however there are plenty of alternatives and loads of street food, so its not an issue. There is a great swimming pool on the roof and a sky lounge. This would be improved by having a permanent bar, but for some reason there isn't one. Again, you're in the centre of Battambang, so why would you want to stay in your hotel? Overall the place is a good hotel, friendly and efficient staff and thoroughly recommended.
