Go Green! Baby Elephant joins Plastic Free July

Being green is a big part of the Baby Elephant mission, and we’re making good progress with our monthly initiatives to reduce the hotel’s footprint, become more eco-friendly, and contribute in a positive way to our local community. This July, we’re joining forces with other socially conscious Siem Reap businesses to ditch plastic packaging and reduce the amount of waste produced in temple town. Take a look at our new blog post to discover more of what we’re doing as part of this planet-friendly drive.

Discover Muslim communities and food in Siem Reap

Ramadan and Eid might have just passed, but it’s not too late to learn something new about the pockets of Muslim culture and communities right here in Siem Reap! While Cambodia’s premier tourist town might be best known for the Buddhist-Hindu temples in the Angkor Wat complex, Siem Reap – and the country more widely – are also home to numerous Muslim communities. Our new blog post gives you the inside track on these communities and how to find out more about them and, just because we’re incurable foodies, where to dig into some of their delicious culinary influences on our little town.

Run for your life in a Siem Reap marathon!

Calling all marathon junkies! Siem Reap is home to its fair share of challenging and charitable runs, and there are more on the way. Taking part in a marathon in Cambodia’s temple town is the perfect way to check out the city’s bucket-list-worthy sights, and end shopping and eating possibilities, while accomplishing the latest rung in your fitness journey. Best of all, before and after your run, the Baby Elephant team is here to pamper you with fabulous spa treatments, delicious meals in our restaurant, rejuvenating pool time, and of course luxurious bedrooms for that all-important rest and relaxation. Read our new blog post to find out more about Siem Reap’s upcoming marathons and our great-value packages.

Lemongrass Garden Spa opens at Baby Elephant with a bang

Take a look at all the photos from this happening evening of fun and festivities, then come down and see us for a rewarding, energising and all-natural treatment in the surrounds of our luxurious spa.

Cocktail of the Month

Dragonfruit Gin Fizz ($4.00 or 2-4-1 during Happy Hour!)

It's no secret that we're fans of gin cocktails and opportunities to create new flavours with a focus on botanicals. This month's cocktail is a gin fizz, with a house-made dragonfruit syrup made by our assistant manager Seyha. The Dragonfruit Gin Fizz combines Gordon's gin, lime juice, soda water and a dash of dragonfruit syrup. Dragonfruit is tipped as the next superfood loaded with antioxidants and other healthy stuff, so what better opportunity? Follow us on Instagram for other holiday inspiration!

Enjoy for $4.00 or 2-4-1 during Happy Hour every day from 5-7PM!
