In this magical setting, guests will encounter unforgettable visits with Santa, live music, and surprises all season long.

Savor Delicious Memories

Since its opening in 2018, Rosewood Phnom Penh has raised the bar for dining, drinking, wellness, and hospitality in Cambodia – and the efforts have garnered worldwide attention. In October, the hotel was honored to be included among the “Top 10 Hotels in Southeast Asia” by Conde Nast Traveler’s 2022 Readers’ Choice Awards for the fourth consecutive year.
In a nod to the hotel’s strength as a culinary destination, Travel + Leisure Southeast Asia crowned steakhouse Cuts “Cambodia’s Best Restaurant”. The elegant steak and seafood grill also earned a coveted spot on this year’s “50 Best Discovery” list by World’s 50 Best Restaurants.

This festive season, diners will be immersed in the warm service, flavors, and execution that have earned Rosewood Phnom Penh restaurants top honors year after year. On December 24 and 25, Cuts will serve a special six-course menu featuring dishes like Australian Tajima Wagyu Carpaccio and Canadian Lobster Ravioli, followed by an equally indulgent New Year’s Eve set dinner on December 31.

Meanwhile, Brasserie Louis will present a Festive Brunch on Christmas Day brimming with Cambodian and French entrées, a decadent Christmas dinner menu, and a New Year’s Eve feast, so diners can celebrate new beginnings with delicacies such as Scallop Ceviche with Gazpacho and Caviar, Pan-Seared Foie Gras, and Lobster and Celeriac Cannelloni. Ideal for families, the Living Room will host a merry and bright afternoon tea alongside gingerbread house decorating workshops and live saxophone and string performances.

Unleash New Energy for the New Year

Rosewood Phnom Penh has become a destination for holistic well-being and a sanctuary of serenity in the vibrant capital. Renowned for luxurious wellness journeys rooted in ancient Khmer traditions, Sense A Rosewood Spa was named “Best Hotel Spa in Cambodia” in 2022 by the World Spa Awards – the world’s leading authority on wellness. From the grounding Angkor massage to the traditional Chol Mlob skin cleanse, a Rosewood spa treatment is the perfect way to rejuvenate and recharge ahead of the new year.
For those seeking an evening of celebratory energy, Sora Sky Bar is the place to be at countdown time. Having recently welcomed Bob Louison as the new Director of Bars, our storied sky bar will usher in the new year in style with an epic countdown partyWorld-class performers on KlapYaHandz – Cambodia’s pioneering independent record label, which marries hip-hop, reggae, rock ‘n’ roll, soul, and Golden Age Cambodian pop hits – will take the stage while guests welcome 2023 on the dance floor.
