THE LOWDOWN.

Welcome to Mad Monkey Phnom Penh, where Cambodia's capital serves up rooftop sunsets, rich history, and nights that rarely end where they started. Every evening starts with The Meet Up (7pm at the bar, 50% off beers, and great company). Come alone, leave together. Throw yourself into our Monday and Thursday Pub Crawls, battle it out at Wednesday Beer Olympics, and spend Saturdays by the pool with our BBQ and Pool Party. As the only true party hostel in Phnom Penh, we've spent years perfecting the city's biggest social calendar, making it ridiculously easy to meet people from the moment you check in.

Step outside into the heart of BKK1, where hidden cocktail bars, street food markets and riverside walks are all within easy reach. Dive deeper into Cambodia's story with our S21 and Killing Fields tour, explore the city on our bike and boat adventure, then head back to swap stories over a drink before recharging in our air-conditioned dorms or private rooms, with privacy curtains guaranteed on every dorm bed.
