In Cambodia, most stores offer WiFi for free. Phnom Penh which is the capital city of Cambodia has many stylish cafes and there are many power outlets. There is one thing you need to be aware of in Cambodia which can be called Digital Nomad heaven. That is the speed of WiFi.

After ordering you will receive a WiFi password from the store clerk and you can not open the page easily even if you connect to WiFi to start working on your seat. This happens occasionally.

There is no problem if you have a local SIM card capable of 3G, 4G communication, but when you do not have SIM you can not resist the shock when such a problem occurs.

Therefore, we investigated the WiFi speed of the store in Phnom Penh. We divide it into cafe section, restaurant section and Co-working Space section, and we are introducing each of the top five (Now in Co-working Space section, we introduce only one place).
Checking this ranking, you will not be bothered by WiFi in Phnom Penh.
*Once we find a store with a faster WiFi, we will update the rankings from time to time.

How to survey WiFi speed

This time WiFi speed survey was done using SPEEDTEST site.

Survey method: SPEEDTEST is used. Measure once in each store where we visited.
Survey device: Mac Book Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)

As each store measurement is only one time, there is a possibility that the WiFi speed may be different from when you visit. Please note that.

Summary and our recommended cafe

The fastest WiFi in Phnom Penh are Starbucks Reserve Boeung Keng Kang and Samaky restaurant and lounge in cafe and restaurant in Phnom Penh respectively.
In the cafe ranking, Starbucks Reserve is 1st place, but the cafe I recommend the most is 95 Degree Coffee & Bakery. Unlike Starbucks Reserve, you can use Wifi with multiple devices and it’s easy to find your seat. It seems that this cafe is just opened recently, so the inside of the store is also beautiful. I think the best cafe for working in Phnom Penh is 95 Degree Coffee & Bakery.

We can not investigate all stores, so if you have information of stores have faster WiFi please let us know!
