Langkawi Hostels

I chose this guesthouse, newly opened in 2026, for my trip to Langkawi this time, and it truly exceeded my expectations! It's located above the Kawanda Billion Supermarket, so you can just head downstairs for water and snacks – super convenient. There are also tons of food options around, from restaurants to street stalls, making it easy to sort out all your meals without any worries. The owner is incredibly kind, and all the staff are super enthusiastic. They're always happy to answer questions and even recommended many fun local spots and delicious restaurants to us. The room facilities are very new, and both the bedding and the room itself are extremely clean, showing that they truly put effort into running the place. The biggest surprise was the communal kitchen! It's equipped with an air fryer and a microwave, so we could buy seafood at night and prepare a simple meal ourselves, which was incredibly convenient and saved money. The mountain view from the window is lovely; sitting there and enjoying the breeze was very comfortable. It's about five kilometers from both the airport and Cenang Beach, so a taxi ride takes about ten minutes – a very suitable location. I'll definitely stay here again on my next trip to Langkawi; I genuinely recommend it to everyone!

This place actually is more than just a motel as we know. When we arrived we were surprised to see how big that tiny house inside with a comfy bed, a large table, a kitchen equipped with a microwave, a fridge , a sink, an electric kettle, kitchenware: plates , forks, bowls and and plates, a bottle of dish cleaner. We used our kitchen corner mostly for cooking cereals for breakfast. There’s also a kitchen for common use with stoves , pots and pans near the managers office if someone feels like cooking lunch or dinner. The bathroom is small, together with toilet, the shower gel provided by management, no toothpaste or toothbrushes. In the patio one may find two chairs and a table , clothes hangers as well. The motel is located about 1 km from the Main Street Pengtai Cenang and 1.5 km from the beach, but it’s easy to rent a bike for MR 40 a day and the manager will help you to arrange all the formalities. The receptionist is a very kind and friendly person, always ready to help you if needed. In general, the motel is great place for people who came to chilax closer to nature, looking for peace and calm, away from noise and rush. It’s a great experience of accommodation, without luxury and room service, but full of warmth and positive emotions… something unforgettable. Stay cool!!😎

Thank you to the host for your warm hospitality. This is my first time arriving in Malaysia, and I came directly to Langkawi. I was a bit anxious at first, but the host couple are extremely kind and friendly. Although the location is slightly remote, getting around with Grab is really convenient, and it is close to the Telaga harbour. I think it is an good accommodation option for a stopover when traveling to Koh Lipe.

The hotel is on the beach, a very beautiful location, tables overlooking the sea and a gorgeous sunset. This alone is worth a visit for at least a couple of days. There's a children's pool with a sea view. The WiFi worked. There's a local cafe serving dinner. The only refrigerator is in the shared kitchen, and that's a plus. The bed linen was stained. The mugs were smelly and unwashable. It was a family room, and the second bed left only a narrow passage to the bathroom, which was a bit cramped. The toilet leaked. Overall, for this price, it's fine for a couple of nights.

The motel is average, but for the price, you can't expect more. We just needed a place to sleep for the night, and for that, it was more than sufficient. The renovation is recent. The staff is very friendly. Surprisingly, the bed and pillows were very comfortable. Housekeeping is by request – if you ask, they'll clean. There's private parking, which was important for us since we rented a car. There are many cafes nearby, and Chenang Beach is just a 5-minute walk away.

The rooms are dated, the furniture looks like it's from the colonial era, and the bed linens are washed-out and no longer have the color white. The room is small, but comfortable with two beds: one king-size bed and one single bed. There's no closet at all. The bathroom and toilet are all in one, so you wash right at the sink. There was no hot water, so we washed with cold water. But it's really cool that the single-story houses have a mini-terrace. In the evening, you can sit at a table, where there's also a clothes dryer. The pool is warm! The location is great! It's not noisy and not far from all the action. Across the street, a night food court opens in the evening, where you can have a delicious and affordable dinner.

The rooms are clean and affordably priced. It's right by the beach, just a short walk away. Shops and restaurants are very easy to find, and it's close to department stores, duty-free shops, massage parlors, and various eateries. For this price, it's definitely great value for money. The room is spacious and comes with a hairdryer, soap, towels, and even a dining table. Excellent!

The hosts were incredibly lovely and helped us with all our questions. They rented us a scooter, provided their own helmet, an adapter for European outlets, and even replied to messages at night. I highly recommend this place!

This accommodation offers excellent value for money, especially for families traveling with children. It's just a 300-meter walk to the beach, which is super convenient for kids to play in the water. The surrounding area is bustling with shops, including convenience stores and restaurants, so you'll never have to worry about dining or shopping – everything is right downstairs. It would be even better if the room cleanliness could be improved, but overall, it's a great experience. It's a hassle-free and comfortable stay for families heading to the beach. Highly recommended!

Sadly, this looks like a place that desperately needs renovation. It looks quite neglected, from walls screaming for new paint, to torn bedsheets, to broken pipes in the bathroom leaking water. Also, some things are not as advertised in their profile. There is no 24 hour front desk - in fact, check in is very simple, you come to a desk, and find the key with the sticker with your name on it (it would be nice if they informed guests about this). Also, there is no hot water in the bathroom (even if room description claims otherwise), nor electric kettle in the room. There was also no toilet paper, but after i sent them an email about it (remember, no 24 hour front desk), they brought a roll with an apology. They were nice enough to extend my check out for an hour. But more than just being flexible, i think their business would improve if they invested more into maintenance of the place.
