Thailand’s Minor Hotels Group has signed the first Avani Hotel in Cambodia.

Following an extensive $ 7 million renovation, which includes the addition of 60 new rooms, the FCC Angkor – Managed by Avani Hotel will reopen its doors in the second quarter of 2019.

Located across from the Royal Independence Gardens and Royal Residence, the FCC Angkor centres around the former ‘Mansion’ of the French colonial governor, which became the renowned Foreign Correspondence Club and a popular meeting place for local and international journalists, celebrities, and travellers from around the world seeking to explore Siem Reap.

The town’s many day and night markets, eclectic restaurants, and the popular Pub Street are all walking distance from the hotel. Angkor Wat, the internationally renowned UNESCO World Heritage Site, encompassing 400 sq. km of ruins dating from the 12th to 15th century, is 10 minutes from the hotel. The Preah Ang Chek Prea Ang Chorm shrine is a three-minute stroll from the FCC along the river.

“Avani Hotels & Resorts’ first entry into Cambodia signals our ongoing commitment to offering an upscale experience to all intrepid travellers,” said Dillip Rajakarier, CEO of Minor Hotels, the parent company of Avani Hotels & Resorts. “We believe FCC Angkor will be home to the intrepid traveller seeking an authentic experience in the social hub of Siem Reap.”

Along with the new and refurbished rooms and suites, FCC Angkor has updated and expanded its facilities. A brand-new bar called Scribe now complements the Mansion’s renovated restaurant, while other additions include a spa, pool, and lounge.

“We are excited to be working with Avani Hotels & Resorts as they are exceptional operators of lifestyle hotels, and well aligned to promote and position the FCC Angkor and FCC Collection brand. The new FCC will also be a member of Preferred Hotels & Resorts, joining us in the commitment to deliver extraordinary, engaging and unique experiences to our global guests,” said Susan Devine, Owner’s Representative, FCC Angkor – Managed by Avani.
