House of Lion Hostel

this hostel is cheap & in a decent location but you get what you pay for. the Hostelworld photos are misleading!! the 6bed dom has TRIPLE BUNKS (they’ve cropped the top top bunks out. also the entire time I was there they shut off the water at around 1am? no shower, no flushing the toilet, no washing your hands (it was also like this for the week prior, a girl had told me) and the place does smell like cat urine. not much of a social aspect

Really friendly and helpfull staff! Social and they plan some activitys and give you some recomendations.

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

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 !

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.

This is a really chill place to stay in langkawi. The social areas are nice and i slept really well. Volunteer's were all super sweet, just didn't seem to be many activities or things organised :(

Amazing stay comfy beds and cozy environment, great location as well! Must stay

Cool place, nice common area to chill in with friendly faces. Great to have access to a kitchen and the dorms are comfy. Walking distance to the beach for sunset and good restaurants about.

Nice place, nice staff, confortable dorms. Good hostel

I had the best time at this hostel. I loved the staff and how easy it is for you get to know everyone in the hostel. The location is good! I found the beds quite comfy too!

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

Wir hatten ein Privates Zimmer für zwei. Es war Sauber, die Leute waren super nett. Die Zimmer gemütlich und der Strand ist ziemlich nah. Insgesamt aufjedenfall empfehlenswert!

the staff are the most down to earth people u can ever meet. very welcoming and social people. the location is very close to the beach and the guests are very social.

Lovely staff & very comfy beds.

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.

Very friendly staff, very clean room. They were flexible with our arrival and departure times.

The place was very welcoming great stuff and a peaceful
