Trip Report - Phnom Penh 2016

[nasherich]

So I made a visit to Arthur and Paul this afternoon after the 5 pm 'public' opening. It's very nice, clean and stylish, but I think I'm glad I didn't choose to stay there. Not sure I like the vibe, but each to his own.

I visited with my newly acquired companion from earlier in the week but we only stayed an hour or so. There weren't a huge number of visitors. There was some full on groping in the steam room, which is the darkest place I've ever been to. The stairs to it and the changing room are downright dangerous and I'm lucky I didn't end up in the local casualty. I'm normally quite good at seeing in the dark but that was ridiculous.

Decided against a massage as I'll save my energy for Bangkok tomorrow.

hi nascherich i am always a bit shy when i visit a massage place and hate having to look at all the guys before deciding who to choose, i will be in phnom phen later in the year and any information about massage places will be of use thank you , also which in your opinion would be the best gay bar to hook up with a guy in his say mid to late twenties [ someone who likes a daddy ]

Bazzabear, just enter "Phnom Penh Massage" in the Search box and you will find numerous reports about massage and night clubs in Phnom Penh.

Buzzabear, I only visited Ganesh as I unexpectedly acquired a companion on the second day. However, at Ganesh the guys were behind a glass screen and I was told they couldn't see me. Certainly it would have been difficult as their side was brightly lit and mine dark. So it wasn't awkward at all.

I only visited Blue Chilli, POPP and Space Bar. But I reckon you'd be better off with Gay Romeo or Grindr to find what you want personally

Great report.

The evisa can come in handy in Siem Reap if you happen to land just behind full flights. When I arrived a couple of months ago it was just after flights from SGN and ICN and was glad I had my evisa already in hand. I was first one up to the immigration desks and first one out of the airport. The visa on arrival line has a lot of people in it, but they seemed to have many officers on hand to process them.

Absolutely right. Last time I was in SR, with my eVisa, I was out the airport almost an hour ahead of another traveller who was staying at same hotel and who was at back of queue for visa on arrival after several aircraft landed in quick succession. The "Cambodia eVisa" app available for iPhone and iPad customers makes the application process very simple. Not sure if there is also an Android version.
