Lion is located right in the heartbeat of Langkawi but hidden between the busy main street . A perfect location for me , it sit in a little peaceful village and nearest beach ,restaurants and bars are within 5 mins walking distance. The staff and volunteers are super helpful and friendly , the owner engaged to her guests like long lost friends and she organized activities like karaoke night and bar hopping ,and island trips too. Look no further !

Amazing accommodation. The check in process is easy. The staff are very friendly and easy going. The arrange horror movie night in accordance with the hostel theme. They even have WhatsApp group for group activity. As person who love to cook, the kitchen and utilities are suck a perk and bonus

Prima locatie maar daar blijft het ook wel bij. Hygiëne is ver te bekennen, drie dagen lang gekeken naar stukjes in wasbak en wc bleef overstromen/nat. Enige wat ze deden wat prullenbak vervangen, dat is het ook. Geen activiteiten, weinig sociaal en hostel wordt gerund door vrijwilligers die er zelf net een week zijn. Vriendelijk maar zou hem niet aanraden

Nice location but that's where the positives end. Cats all over the hostel and a pretty strong smell of cat urine which made the stay pretty unpleasant, and the facilities were not clean. Cheap, but not worth it in my opinion.

The dorms have three bunk beds. The mattress is really uncomfortable and everything is dirty.

Fait le taff, l’hostellerie reste agréable et charmant en premier abord Clim extrêmement bruyante, la pompe à eau bruyante et ne s’arrête qu’à 1h du matin. La propreté laisse vraiment à désirer

The staff make this hostel. Everyone was really lovely. However, the room we were in has shutters as the windows so mosquitos were biting us as we slept. The bathrooms are outside :/ Lots of bugs

Description doesn’t mention it but there are cats all over the hostel so be aware if you are allergic and one peed all over my things. Staff were extremely unhelpful and did absolutely nothing to help with resolving the issue. Manager was extremely rude. No offer of help to get them cleaned was made nor was there any compensation. AVOID this hostel at all costs. Spend your money elsewhere.
