Beach Hotels in Kedah, Malaysia

Great location right in the center of the tourist area, with plenty of cafés and restaurants around, which makes it very convenient. The hotel also has a small swimming pool and direct access to the beach, which was really nice. Just keep in mind that there is a 100 RM deposit required at check-in.

The hotel itself is well located and has a certain charm. The furniture is quite old, but in a way it adds character to the place. The staff we interacted with were generally kind and polite. However, we had a very upsetting experience with the Ramadan buffet restaurant. We arrived at the hotel around 6:00 PM after a long day of travel with two flights (Phuket to Kuala Lumpur and Kuala Lumpur to Langkawi). My mother had been fasting all day for Ramadan and had not eaten or drunk anything. When we saw that the restaurant was preparing the Ramadan buffet, my mother sat down hoping to break her fast there. Unfortunately we were refused and told that reservations had to be made one day in advance. This was very surprising for us, as we had just arrived in the country and could not possibly have reserved the day before. We were directed to another nearby restaurant, but after waiting more than one hour we still had not received any food. During that time my mother — who had been fasting all day — still had nothing to eat, and my two-year-old child was crying because he was hungry. In the end, my mother was only able to eat about two hours after the time of breaking the fast. Aside from this very difficult experience, the hotel itself is pleasant and the staff are friendly. However, I hope the management will consider being more flexible and understanding in situations like this, especially for guests observing Ramadan and families traveling with young children.

We booked for the king deluxe room. There were no updates coming from the hotel but when i called to ask for a decoration for my room, only then i knew that the room i asked for was already full. However, out of courtesy, they gave us a free upgrade room. The aircond was broken upon arrival and we told the staff and they fixed it as soon as possible. Overall it was a good stay. I would definitely repeat regardless of the issues.

I brought my whole family to this hotel for a New Year's vacation. The public courtyard has plenty of space for activities, which was great. There are lots of outdoor seating areas and hammocks, and the hot and cold water dispenser was very convenient. The hotel staff were excellent, very patient and polite. The downsides were that there were many ants in the room, the triple room was dark and damp with poor ventilation, and the location is a bit out of the way.

Royal Chenang Resort has beautiful hotel decorations with a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere. The chef and breakfast staff were very friendly and welcoming, which made our mornings enjoyable. The building could use a bit more maintenance to keep it looking its best, but overall it is still a nice place to stay. Even though the location is slightly far from Chenang Beach, it was not an issue for us as we had a rental car. Overall, we would recommend staying at this hotel.

I’d rate this hotel 4 out of 5 overall. The room wasn’t perfectly clean, but it was good for the price.The bed was very comfortable. The shower was great. Check-in and especially check-out were a bit annoying due to the wait. The waterpark is excellent and the kids absolutely loved it. The restaurant was good, with reasonably priced food and a great sunset view. Breakfast was the weakest point, with limited options like eggs, bread, and noodles.

The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The air con worked well but the WiFi was very unstable which made it very difficult to get anything done online, we had to go to nearby cafes if we wanted to book flights etc. The room and bathroom could have been cleaner and housekeeping could have come more frequently to change toilet roll and give us new towels. We could have done with more hooks in the bathroom and more hangers in the wardrobe. There's a fridge, kettle, hairdryer and iron/ ironing board. The apartments are nicely laid out around the pool with plenty of sun loungers and parasols. There is a book swap in reception which I made use of. The location is great as it's not too busy but there are restaurants nearby and it's very close to the airport, langkawi sky cab and Pantai Cenang where there is loads going on. There isn't really a beach nearby where you can swim, you need to get a taxi to Pantai Kok or Cenang.

The hotel is pretty cool and definitely worth the price. However, it really needs some maintenance. The shower head is about to fall off, and there's dust and cobwebs in the corners. The AC is quiet and works fine. My room was on the second floor. The staircase was a bit scary, and a floorboard on the landing was almost broken. In the room, there was some kind of platform built around the bed, which I constantly stubbed my toe on. There was a similar platform around the toilet, causing the same issue. This place is really only for the most undemanding traveler who just needs a place to sleep. No fridge, no hairdryer, no kettle, and no mugs. They gave me towels in a cute little bag when I checked in, which was a nice touch. You can rent a scooter, it's not expensive, but the scooters are basic, not very powerful, and there's no phone holder. Their T Star shop is nearby, and I think they have a bigger selection of scooters there.

I admit this hotel is a bit old, so it's not as modern as newly built ones. But when you're in Langkawi, an island style just isn't going to be super modern. However, the hotel's environment and service are excellent. The restaurant and pool are right next to the beach, so having breakfast every day with a sea view is just amazing. The frangipani flowers, which are the hotel's namesake, are everywhere inside the hotel, along with many other beautiful plants and a variety of birds singing. I highly recommend staying here!

I stayed at this hotel in Langkawi during my trip with my husband, and the place was truly stunning. From the moment we arrived, everything felt so peaceful and beautiful. I stayed there only for a night including with breakfast. The room was very nice, the bed was extremely comfortable, and I honestly regretted that we only stayed for one night. Waking up to such a breathtaking view was an experience on its own—the scenery around the hotel was absolutely amazing. One of my favourite parts of the resort was the beautiful swimming pool located right in the middle. It added so much charm to the place and made the whole environment feel even more relaxing and luxurious. Sitting by the pool and taking in the surroundings felt like a dream. I would say this was my favourite stay on my whole vacation there. That said, the journey to the resort was a bit challenging. The road leading up was quite confusing and honestly a little scary, as the resort is located at the top of a hill. Driving up from the bottom felt intense, and the pathway could definitely be improved. But once we reached the resort and stepped inside, it felt like entering heaven. The atmosphere, the view, and the comfort completely made up for the drive. Despite the challenging road, the experience was totally worth it. I truly fell in love with the place, and next time I visit Langkawi, I’ll definitely make sure to stay there longer.
