Hotels in Langkawi

"Booked Malibest Resort for my missus, sister-in-law, and our two little ones for a 3-night break. They paid RM100 deposit for two rooms. They asked for connecting rooms, but due to peak season, the hotel could only offer nearby rooms on the same floor with another guest in between. Staff said we could swap if the middle room became free, but the guest stayed longer, so no luck—but it was fine. The hotel’s right in the heart of Cenang, and with peak season in full swing, it was packed. They hired a car to explore Langkawi, but parking was tricky—no private lot, so had to leave the car on the far side street or at the nearby mall (RM20 overnight). A few times they used Grab instead, which made the car rental feel a bit wasted. Location-wise, it’s spot-on. Loads of duty-free shops, food places, and just steps from the beach. They walked to Underwater World too. The area’s buzzing with tourists, both local and international. Rooms were clean and quiet. The pool was sandy at the bottom—likely from beachgoers jumping in without rinsing. Inside the room, all the basics were covered: towels, shampoo, body wash, a fridge for takeaway, water boiler for coffee, and a telly with YouTube (which the kids loved). Also, it’s close to the airport—so no stress about getting there on time. Overall, a solid stay with great location and helpful staff. A few hiccups, but the family had a lovely time."

"I had a wonderful stay at Park Royal Langkawi Resort with my family. The room was spotless, and the entire property was beautifully maintained. We had a stunning ocean view from our room, which made the stay even more special. The staff were exceptionally friendly, approachable, and always ready to help with a smile. My son especially loved the swimming pool and the activity room. All of us had an amazing time! The resort’s amenities were excellent and really added to the overall experience. Highly recommend for a relaxing and family-friendly getaway."

"Our stay was most enjoyable - a very pleasant hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Well designed hotel with few pretentions, offering comfort and good service. Hotel room - Simple, spacious with good modern facilities. Good, well-designed Breakfast area - Breakfast facilities are very good, with good selection of well prepared food (including an egg station), with thoughtful variations from day to day. The manager in charge of breakfast is attentive, efficient and friendly. Well-designed Bar and pool area, which provides live entertainment (including movie nights with free popcorn). Although on a busy road, it was quiet. Hotel has an outlook (to the rear) from the swimming pool area across to the quiet fields and lush green hills (we enjoyed the sighting of cows and birds in the background). Special mention of Mr Mokthar at Front Desk - he is personable, experienced, helpful and made us feel welcome the moment we stepped in. He is a valuable asset to Bayou hotel. Thank you for a memorable stay."

"This was hands down the most satisfying hotel of our trip to Malaysia, and my friends were equally impressed. The service was impeccable, and the amenities were top-notch. Our rooms were individual wooden chalets, which made them incredibly quiet, and the surroundings were absolutely beautiful. Our sea-view room opened directly onto the ocean; it was bright, spacious, and had a generously sized bathroom. Each independent chalet comprised multiple rooms. They provided four complimentary bottles of water, with more available upon request. The hotel also offered free yoga classes. Unfortunately, we only stayed for two nights and didn't get to experience many of the facilities. Breakfast at the hotel was excellent, with two restaurants offering different cuisines. The Asian restaurant had tastier food, but the American restaurant boasted unparalleled views, being right by the sea and allowing you to enjoy breakfast facing the ocean. I couldn't resist the shrimp noodles at the Asian restaurant, so I ended up eating there for both days. The hotel features two very clean swimming pools, a beautiful artificial lake, and various other recreational facilities. Water sports bookings were available right next to the hotel, including banana boat rides and jet skiing. Next time, I'll definitely come just to relax and fully enjoy the hotel's offerings."

"1. Slow check in process by the staff who had assisted me as compared to my friend’s. Though I have 3 rooms to check in but was asked with lots of questions and the whole process took me at least 30mins? - not sure if this is normal. 2. Cleanliness of the room was horrific for a Google 5-star hotel. Mentioning the worst - Insect carcasses was noted at a corner of the living room on the check in day as shown in the picture. It was still there even after room service. 3. Cash left on the dining table when missing after returning to room at night. Believe it was assumed as ‘tips’ after room service? Tips for not cleaning insect carcasses? 4. The kitchen sink was clogged again despite the first repair. 5. 2 out of 4 toothbrush kits were opened with missing toothpaste on the check in day. Out of so many bads, at least I’m glad that the guards over there were friendly."

"This is an overall very good hotel. It is as advertised to be right at the heart of Pantai Cenang with basically everything walking distance to it. The room provided was rushed as we also did a rushed booking. Sound insulation is a major point of improvement. But everything else was okay. The price\value ratio of the hotel is based on its location but the facilities are like a decent 3 star hotel. Small pool and walkable to the beach. Free parking, good breakfast selection with local and international options, clean and modern facilties too. The staff is absolutely friendly and happy to help. Nice stay."

"Facilities: They're just okay, typical of a basic business hotel. Nothing to write home about. Cleanliness: Extremely poor, especially the bedding. It felt old and clearly hasn't been updated or thoroughly cleaned often. Location: The only good thing is its convenience. It's right across from the beach, less than 100 meters away. Service: Pretty average. Don't set your expectations too high."

"Excellent room spacious and in-room amenities. We love the bathroom (wudhu’ pipe), the spacious bathtub, the kitchen sink (clean up baby’s bottle etc.) without going to the toilet, the room layout, the view. Very nice 👍🏼🫰🏼"

"the hotel has nice lobby.. fast check in and check out... however it only has 3 lifts and each lift can only fit maybe 6 people in one go... so waiting for lift can take longggg time especially when the hotel has higher occupancy.. the room just okay.. not much to wow about and gym equipment can be added more since the gym room are quite spacious ."

"Close to beach. Walking distance to cenang beach n easily find food. Sorry I didn’t take any photos of the chalets"
