Phnom Penh's quietest, most refined room — first-class and Star Alliance Gold only.

About this lounge

Plaza Premium First is the highest-tier room in Plaza Premium's Phnom Penh lineup, a quieter and more exclusive space than the standard lounges. Access is reserved for Star Alliance Gold status holders and first-class passengers, which keeps it calm and uncrowded for most of the day. The decor is inspired by Khmer artistry, with warm lighting, comfortable seating areas and subtle cultural touches, and soft background music adds to the tranquil mood. Despite its popularity it holds onto a sense of spaciousness, with the busiest moments falling in the early morning and late evening departure banks. It suits business travellers who want a quiet corner to work, families looking for a comfortable place to settle, and leisure travellers after a more premium airport experience. If you qualify, it's the most refined lounge at Phnom Penh.
