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!

The hotel is small. We stayed on the second floor in the building by the pool. This building has 6 rooms. The room had a small kitchen nook with a sink, microwave, and refrigerator. Housekeeping was available upon request. The only minor drawback was that we wished the towels were changed daily. There's a shared kitchen with dishes near the reception. Barbecue facilities are also available. The staff was very friendly. The location was convenient for us. We rented a car for the first week and explored the entire island. For the remaining days, we mostly walked to Cenang Beach. It's a nice 20-minute walk in the morning. We swam and sunbathed at the Malibest Hotel, where we rented sunbeds for 50 ringgit (2 sunbeds + umbrella). We'd either walk back or take a taxi for 6-10 ringgit.

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 room, bed, and bathroom were exceptionally clean, and I was very satisfied with my stay. The air conditioning functioned perfectly, keeping the room comfortable. While parking is somewhat limited, it is extremely convenient as you can park right in front of your room. no picture taken, since a bit rushing in/out during stay

The hotel is great value for money. The rooms are spacious, with a kettle and fridge, and a seating area at the entrance. There were some issues with our reservation, but the staff resolved everything quickly. The location is excellent—it's right in the center of the beach and close to the sea, a 7-minute walk, yet very quiet and peaceful. There are plenty of cafes and shops nearby, and across the street, there's a night market open from 6:00 to 11:00 PM.

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!

I have pleasent experience here. The price also reasonable because I have my own private pool. The owner also polite and friendly. The place are not lively like chenang and I like it! Peace and quite village but near to Chenang so it's recommended places to choose. I have good experience here. Really like it!

The location is fantastic. There are plenty of dining options, shops, and a money changer with good rates nearby, and the beach is close. The balcony is spacious and the room is clean. There are no amenities provided, and a hairdryer needs to be requested. A small bottle of water is included. We saw four wild tarsiers from our balcony, one with a baby clinging to its belly – it was amazing! The downsides are that the free Wi-Fi is weak and constantly disconnects, and there's no elevator. There's also a 50 MYR deposit. Note that the map on Trip.com is incorrect; the Agoda map is accurate.

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.
