Amazing value for money
Sparkling clean hotel with large rooms in a lovely setting. Ideally located 5min walk from the Old Quarters where all restaurants, shops and bar are located. Ideal for a 2 night stay in the centre of Kampot.
They also bake delicious pizza in a wooden fire. Highly recommended!
This is obviously a value hotel so if you expect 5 star service, this is probably not for you.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Mea Culpa. My room was spacious and comfortable, there was a balcony terrace which I could sit out on to relax and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The location is also ideal, being between a 5 and 10 minute walk to town, depending on where you're going.

My favourite stay in Cambodia
Exceptionally nice and clean hotel at walking distance (= quietly located) from the center of Kampot. The staff and owner were so helpful and friendly, they made me feel right at home. Highly recommend, and I will return here when I get back to Cambodia for further explorations.

Great location good food and nice quiet clean surroundings. The location is great and accessible come on yet quiet enough. This is a small family Hotel and they take great care of their guest. We had booked initially for two nights and then extended five more nights, that says a lot the parking for your motorbike is secure and the gate is closed after 10 p.m.
The owner and his wife are very helpful and can I offer many suggestions about this area. I am sure we will be back, we really enjoyed the atmosphere with great music

Enjoyed our stay here and the staff were super friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated away from the noise in the town centre but still easy to access local restaurants (about a 10 minute walk).It is set in a well maintained garden and has an outdoor area to relax and enjoy a drink. A pizza oven is fired up each night if required.

The best place to stay in Kampot
What a lovely place to stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Kampot and our stay at Mea Culpa. The location is very nice - it's a short 10 minute walk from the "center" of town so you are close to everything but not so close that there will be a lot of noise in the evenings. You're also very close to the waterfront and the evening sunset boast cruises.
The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Our only room complaint was that the wifi wasn't great, but not a big deal overall. The power went out very briefly a few times but this seems to be very common in Kampot.
We had breakfast every morning at the hotel which was so tasty and very reasonably priced compared to your options in town. I recommend the fresh fruit salad - best $2 spent!
There are free bikes you can borrow as needed which was appreciated to get around town. If you need to go further (to the pepper plantations, Kep, etc) then the staff can help arrange a tuk tuk for you.
The staff were all SO kind and helpful!
If you're going to Kampot, definitely stay here!

Nice stay with free bikes!
Lovely terrace, rooms are ok, some with balcony air cond and fan , 10 min walk from most restaurants and bars. Free bikes! On the downside, the cleaning at other rooms is done very loudly with the ladies talking loud at 7-8 AM
