Say “montir pet Royal Angkor”. It is on National Route 6 west of the centre, the old airport road, about ten to fifteen minutes by tuk-tuk from the Old Market.
Read roughly “montir pet antaracheat Royal Angkor”; in practice everyone, Khmer and foreign, just says Royal Angkor.

Siem Reap’s international hospital, on National Route 6 about ten minutes west of the Old Market, and the one a foreign visitor is usually taken to. It is run within Thailand’s Bangkok Dusit Medical Services group, publishes its website in Khmer, English, Chinese and Japanese, and states that it was the first hospital in Cambodia to hold JCI accreditation. It is also comfortably the most expensive place in town to be ill.
What it is known for
Being the hospital a foreign patient is taken to. Royal Angkor is a secondary-care hospital rather than a large medical centre: emergency and trauma, general and internal medicine, children’s health, orthopaedic surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology, ear nose and throat, cardiology, neurology, urology, imaging and an intensive care unit, with a laboratory and blood bank on site. Its own mission statement describes secondary care supported by telehealth through the BDMS network in Thailand, which is the arrangement that matters when a case outgrows the building. It publishes a 24-hour emergency line and a formal patient-referral service.
Who it suits
Anyone with travel insurance, anyone whose problem is serious, and anyone who wants to be seen quickly in English. It handles the ordinary run of Angkor illness — heat exhaustion, dehydration, stomach infections, fevers that need a dengue test, cuts and broken bones off a scooter — and it is used to producing the reports and receipts an insurer asks for afterwards. Families use its children’s department, which is the appropriate choice for a visiting family who can pay private prices. It is not the place to go if you are paying cash and counting it.
Cost and insurance
The most expensive option in Siem Reap by a wide margin, and payment is expected in United States dollars. The published insurance rules are worth reading before you need them: cashless outpatient treatment only where your insurer sends an official guarantee of payment before the visit, and for an admission a written guarantee-of-payment letter by email or fax. The hospital says plainly that a verbal confirmation from an insurer is not enough, and that it reserves the right to bill you if the insurer later refuses. Ring your policy’s assistance line first if there is time, and keep every receipt and the discharge summary.
Getting there
On National Route 6 on the west side of town — the old airport road — roughly ten to fifteen minutes by tuk-tuk from the Old Market and Pub Street, and every driver knows it by name. Do not use “the airport” as a landmark: the new Siem Reap–Angkor International Airport is about 50 km in the other direction, east of the city. In an emergency call the hospital on +855 63 761 888 or +855 12 235 888 rather than trying to move an injured person yourself.
Details checked against the hospital’s own website, September 2026. Call before a non-urgent visit; in an emergency call 119 or the hospital’s own emergency line above. Travel information, not medical advice.
