# City Pricing Research - Wave 16

Research date: 2026-08-14

## Sihanoukville, Cambodia

- Current traveler data shows a broad USD 25-170 solo daily range, with actual hotel-room averages of roughly USD 43 low season and USD 80 peak season.
- A 2026 destination guide specifically says the mid-range tier includes a private budget hotel/hostel room, occasional taxis, restaurant dining, and paid activities.
- Status: beta candidate, but show a clear seasonality/safety context rather than presenting it as interchangeable with inland Cambodia.

## Kep, Cambodia

- Recent field-style guidance reports a fan single room at USD 16. Cambodia-wide current evidence gives private budget guesthouses at USD 15-25/night and food around USD 4-7/day at the low end.
- Status: one-source-away. Kep-specific transport and activity evidence needs a second current source before a city default is released.

## Battambang, Cambodia

- Solo Guides' current budget figure is dorm-oriented, but it establishes a city baseline for food, tuk-tuks, and attractions.
- Status: one-source-away. A current private-room rate must be added before it is usable for the solo adult Route Builder.
