Nestled serenely alongside the Siem Reap River in a verdant enclave is one of Siem Reap"s newest boutique hotels, the Jaya House River Park. Opened in December 2016, this petite lush haven is located about 20 minutes away from Siem Reap International Airport and a six-minute tuk tuk journey from town in the direction of the UNESCO World Heritage listed Angkor site. With the Ecole Francasi Extreme Orient, the Enkosa Pagoda and the Angkor Conservation Authority in the neighbourhood, Jaya House River Park is shrouded in a definitive sense of heritage and culture. "Jaya" is a shortened version of Jayavarman, the 9th century king who unified the Khmer states into one empire. Designed by V-Design Asia based in Siem Reap, the Jaya House River Park is a modern, luxurious resort integrating Khmer culture and Western design. Its slightly off the beaten track location ensures a tranquil retreat away from the bustling town yet still readily accessible with the complimentary use of the hotel"s fleet of tuk tuks or two-wheeled carriages pulled by a motorbike from 4.30 am to 10 pm.
