Hotel Art - Siem Reap



Well, I suppose choosing art to put on the walls here is a bit of a no brainer. The black and white images of Angkor which line the walls of every corridor and room in the hotel are an interesting record of how the site has altered in just a few short years.


In addition to the Angkor photography, there are attractive buddhist sculptures here and there, adding a real sense of place to each room.


And just to fool us, we looked at this poster once or twice before reading on the side label that it's a book jacket from 1997. So much for our original thought that it was a 1930s travel advert.
