Bed Attitude Hostel Cenang, hotel in Pantai Cenang

Located within a 4-minute walk of Pantai Tengah Beach and 500 yards of Cenang Beach, Bed Attitude Hostel Cenang has rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Pantai Cenang.

The location near shops, restaurants, and beaches was perfect. The facilities were very clean and well-maintained (they clean the common area every 2-3 hours). For a clean freak, I enjoyed the smell of Dettol every 3 hours :). There was a spacious common area for everyone to relax and do their own thing in the evenings. Additionally, the place had a large, quiet coworking space, which was a bonus for working travellers. The staff are supper friendly and helpful aswell.

    What a fab hostel! The staff were super friendly and helpful. The cleanest hostel we've ever stayed at and everyone was very respectful. Great common area to meet other travellers and a good setup for those wanting to work remotely. Great location - the night market is a must and the restaurant under the café was amazing for a cheap breakfast!

    The hostel was a great location, close to the beach! It was good value for money and the private room was exactly what we needed for our time there (3nights). June was helpful - we booked the mangrove tour with him and would 100% recommend (it was interesting and good value) and the bar at the back of the hostel was also good and cheap drinks!

    Chill and welcoming hostel in great location, walking distance to two beaches. June is the most friendly and helpful host ever! Also, if you are a cat lover, this is the place to be! The hostel is located next door to the best bar in Langkawi, Brian’s Bar, which is great for meeting people! Comfy beds and full kitchen. Great value too.

    Very friendly hosts. Common area was very cosy. Decently priced packages. Clean comfortable beds and clean showers. Safe spaces to store baggage and personal belongings. Strategic location, walking distance to Pantai Cenang and food stalls. Our first time trying a backpackers hostel and we were pleasantly surprised! Would recommend and come again the next time :)
