Everything was clean. The staff was a nice. The wasn’t a major issues for us as some of these comments say, it’s a 1 dollar grab from the center or 10–15 minute walk. It has a nice outside area.

The one downside with the location is that it is next to or nearby a temple so expect some repetitive chanting at weird hours. They charge 5 extra dollars a day for AC.

Really cool and well thought out layout, with the social spaces and pool set up in a way to encourage socialising but allowing people to chill in peace if they want. Exactly what you want from a hostel. Extremely helpful and friendly staff who all speak great English. They were very useful in organising tours and bus travel (which all went smoothly). A LOT of dogs providing energy and cuteness to the social areas. All of them were friendly! Private room had plenty of space, some amenities provided and well cleaned before our stay. If you don’t pay specifically for an AC room, they charge $5 per night for the remote to turn it on - but we found this totally fair due to how good value the stay was.

Five dollars for a large, well-equipped hotel is the best price I’ve ever seen in all the countries I’ve traveled to. I was expecting something much worse, but it turned out to be quite decent!

The hotel facilities could use some renovations, and the early morning prayers at 4 AM can be a bit annoying—but there’s not much that can be done about that. However, I did find human hairs from a previous guest on the bathroom sink, which was unpleasant. That said, for five dollars, I can overlook almost anything—haha!

Kind staff, great pool and great value for the price in general. The hostel is a 15 minute walk from the city centre.

Very nice place for really little money. The best value for money we had in two months of travelling in South East Asia. The room was large and quiet, the breakfast and generally the food was very good and the staff was very-very helpful.

The hotel is located relatively far from the centre. You could walk in reality, but it is an ugly and noisy route you prefer to avoid. We do not use air-conditioning, but the room had an AC and when I asked how it works I have been asked 5$ extra per night (which is a 40% increase of their rate). This is not serious. That said, the fan was largely sufficient to sleep comfortably.

Lovely set up, great pool I didn't have time to use however. Restaurant on site with free breakfast so very handy when checking in late. Close walk to the town however if your scared of dogs better get a lift as there are very little lights near by and a number of dogs are out after dark. Fine for me two nights but you would be happy getting into the hotel.

I didn't realise but my room had no AC, would not book again without it, room was awful warm, hard to sleep even with windows open. Even a small plug in unit should be got for each room an pay slightly extra as for me it was very hard to sleep, 33 degrees easy

We had a lovely stay at Blue Diamond Hostel. The rooms are spacious, clean, and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The staff is amazing, speaks English and is available for any questions and concerns. The restaurant on site serves delicious meals. We also were able to book our boat ride to Siem Reap and had a free shuttle to the boat. The view from the room was beautiful for sunrise. The environment is great with the greenery and the nice music being played there. Thank you for looking after us!

Nice pool, good rooms, very big! The food was delicious. Seemed to be the best value in battambang. Lots of cute animals to play with, and lots of social areas to hang out or have a break.

Only feedback based on other hostels in Cambodia. No water, have to buy it. The tour we booked for the afternoon wasn't very good. Everyone else had tour guides, but we had to self guide. The restaurant isn't that cheap. The prices were more when we went to pay at the end. The scooter hire is for the day, not 24/7.

Spacious, relaxed and overall good value for money. A little walk from the main city central but it's a great location. Nice quiet street. Pool was awesome, and the food is very reasonably priced and good. Lots of lovely dogs, our favorite thing, Ample space. Really recommend this place. Not a 5 star hotel but a very homely and welcoming guesthouse. Most guests were foreigners during our stay and they offer both western and Asia food. Great English country music played. We booked for one night but extended our stay.

Everything was great

The rooms and the pool are amazing! The staff are super helpful and speak great English. They helped book onward travel. They also have the cutest dogs who wear pyjamas around the lobby!!

There’s no elevator so if you’re on the third floor it’s a workout getting your bags up! Charging an extra $5 a night for aircon is annoying when you think you’ve booked a room with aircon. You can check in the small details before booking if it’s fan or AC!!
