Our pick for Tonle Sap River and city skyline views from an infinity pool, with a sky bar on the same roof. Pool floor, hours and non-guest access aren't published, so confirm them first.
The pool
Rooftop infinity pool in Khan Chroy Changvar, with panoramic views of the city skyline and the Tonle Sap River. A sky bar serves cocktails on the roof. The floor and hours aren't published.
Our take
Hotel Emion and Chaiya Palace both publish their pool floors (18th and 16th). The Peninsula doesn't, so you can't judge height before booking. It publishes the kids' pool and playground on the 24th floor, which says little about where the adult pool sits.
The catch is missing detail: hours, access rules and any outsider price are absent from the hotel's pages. Treat it as a stay-and-swim pick, and get answers from the hotel before building a day around it.

Tips
- Message the hotel before booking to ask for pool hours and the pool's floor.
- Visit between March and May if you can, the best swimming months in Phnom Penh.
Before you go. Ask the hotel for the rooftop pool's opening hours and whether it admits non-guests. Neither is published.
