Home Sol Guesthouse

The staff was extremely friendly. Really became good friends with them. The overall vive is really nice

Hostel extrêmement sociable, rempli de voyageurs, canapés en plein air pour discuter et café à volonté. Hostel très bien situé, à 2 minutes de la plage et collé à un restaurant.

Location for beach etc perfect. Staff did everything they could think of to improve your stay. They also seem to be non-stop cleaning. Well Done! Social area works well for guests to make new friends.

Just a hint: Could do with an extra stand alone toilet, for the morning busy time.

Un sitio tranquilo y agradable. El personal es muy amable, hemos estado muy a gusto! Muy recomendable, muy bien ubicado.

Ein nettes, kleines Hostel, in dem sowohl Schlafsäle als auch Einzelzimmer angeboten werden. Es liegt etwas zurückversetzt in einem ruhigen Hinterhof und hat einen schönen Gemeinschaftsbereich, der dazu einlädt, mit anderen Gästen in Kontakt zu kommen. Gleichzeitig hat man aber auch jederzeit die Möglichkeit, sein eigenes Ding zu machen und seine Ruhe zu haben. Die Besitzer sind super entspannt und auch die freiwilligen Helfer sind wirklich sehr angenehm und hilfsbereit. Insgesamt herrscht eine lockere und unkomplizierte Atmosphäre, in der man sich schnell wohlfühlt. Der Strand ist maximal fünf Minuten zu Fuß entfernt. In der Umgebung gibt es außerdem überall kleine, nette Restaurants und Cafés, sodass man eigentlich alles direkt in der Nähe hat. Insgesamt ein sehr angenehmer Ort für alle, die eine entspannte und ungezwungene Atmosphäre suchen.

Ein kleiner Punkt, den man bei einem Hostel natürlich berücksichtigen sollte: Hier sind auch viele sehr junge Leute und Backpacker unterwegs. Daher kann es ab und zu vorkommen, dass jemand spät abends noch etwas lauter ins Hostel zurückkommt oder sich vor den Türen noch unterhält. Das gehört bei einem jungen Hostelpublikum einfach ein Stück weit dazu und sollte einem bewusst sein, wenn man hier übernachtet.

لم يعجبني شي.عبارة عن ملجاء لاتغرك الصور حتى سعره مرتفع جداً

حمام داخل الغرفه مفصول ببلك ولا يوجد مروحة شفط الثلاجه خارجيه مشتركة لجميع الزوار

Guesthouse sympathique et bien située, très proche de la plage. Location de scooters possible, ce qui nous a permis d'explorer l'île en toute liberté. Personnel très sympathique qui nous a indiqué les principaux lieux d'intérêts (avec des recommandations moins touristiques !!)

Super établissement très bien placé ! Personnel très gentil , ce n’étais pas HYPER propre mais cela convenait quand même !

Einzig die Dunkelheit durch relativ kleine Fenster im Zimmer war etwas, was gestört hat. Allerdings ist das kein gravierender Mangel, da man sich ja überwiegend draußen aufhält. Dafür war die Möglichkeit Wasser, Tee oder Kaffee auf dem gemeinsamen Flur zu machen ein nicht zu unterschätzender Vorteil. Alles ist dieser Unterkunft ist ansonsten entspannt und die Gastgeber leben das einfach vor. Die Lage ist ideal für kurze Wege zum Beach, in tolle Lokale, gerade der Thai in der direkten Nachbarschaft war definitiv unser Favorit, auch zum Einkaufszentrum. Alles in Allem ein gelungener einwöchiger Aufenthalt.

Grundsätzlich eigentlich nichts...

Very close the beach. Personal were so helpful.

I absolutely loved this hostel! Everyone is so kind and welcoming, and you immediately feel like you’ve been there for weeks within your first few days. It’s a comfy set up with an amazing location (only a 2 min walk from the beach!) They are always playing some jams out in the common area, and that really just adds to the home-y vibe of the place. I couldn’t recommend Home Sol enough!

I originally planned to stay in Langkawi for just one week, but after only a few days at Home Sol Guesthouse, I already knew I wanted to extend my stay. In the end, I stayed for almost an entire month, which says everything about how comfortable and welcome I felt here. From the moment I arrived, Home Sol felt like a home away from home. The guesthouse is beautifully decorated with lots of thoughtful details, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The communal lounge area is the heart of the place – a comfortable, shaded space with fans where it’s easy to meet other travellers, have great conversations, or simply relax. There are also plenty of quieter corners if you want some time to yourself. The dorms are among the best I have ever stayed in. They are cool, dark, and surprisingly peaceful, making it easy to get a good night’s sleep. The atmosphere among guests is very respectful and relaxed, which makes a huge difference in a shared dorm. The location is excellent as well. Although it’s in the Pantai Cenang area, it is tucked away just enough to offer a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere while still being close to the beach, restaurants, cafés, and everything else you might need. Scooter rental is available directly at the guesthouse for fair prices, and the team is always happy to share recommendations and local tips. What truly makes Home Sol special, however, are the people. The volunteers, manager, owners, and everyone involved create an incredibly welcoming environment and genuinely care about the guests. Their kindness, helpfulness, and positive energy are a huge part of why this place feels so special and why so many guests end up extending their stay. Home Sol is much more than just a guesthouse – it’s a place where people connect, feel at home, and create lasting memories. I arrived planning to stay for one week and left almost a month later. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Great location, and price considering the location. The dorm and bathroom was as I expected based on the booking description. AC was good in the room. Water pressure and heat were also good. Generally quiet at night.

Stairs to get to top bunk are dangerous. Small steps with no handrail, and bottom step is covered by the bottom bunk mattress, so it has to be skipped. Im short, so I slipped one night (not drunk) coming down and cut my arm on the adjoining bunk trying to stop the fall. Another girl did the same thing a few days later. No respect for non-smokers, even many staff were constantly smoking. The common room and the side couch/hammock was almost always occupied by smokers. Only one person over 5 days asked if I minded their smoke. After 4 days, I had asthma/cough and painful sinuses from secondhand smoke exposure.

Staff were so helpful with a range of advice , a very relaxed stay. It's kept very clean too.

Pillows were a bit thin but still slept well.

A place that makes you feel at home immediately. Cozy commun area and chill people around. Dorms and beds are so confy. Close to beach and good local Restaurants

I really enjoyed staying here! It’s conveniently located, clean, comfortable and the staff was fantastic. They have scooters you can rent for $10 a day and I really enjoyed riding around Langkawi! There’s a restaurant called The Smiling Buffalo that’s about a 20 minute walk away but it’s very well worth the walk!

Nothing! I would stay again!

I had private room. Very comfortable bed .good shower. Water pressure not brilliant. But sufficient. Hot and cold water available 24 hours. Free coffee. Nice vibe around the place .ideal for solo traveler. Close to everything you need 7/11.beach.and lots of good restaurants within. 5 minutes walk

Nothing to dislike about this accommodation. For value its excellent

Very nice place to stay in ! Very clean and near everything

Friendly staff Nice decoration Close to the beach

Unfurtunalty the room has no Window Would be easy to build one in

The perfect location! Just 5 minutes to the beach. Amazing volunteers and staff, they're available if you need anything. Rooms were cleaned everyday, there's a nice common area and a hammock to chill in. The rooms have AC and curtains. There's also a fridge, water boiler and free coffe/tea.

There's only one toilet and shower in the room (same room), for 8 people. There is one bathroom with shower in the hallway. Also, don't expect the best water pressure while being here! The mattresses are a bit on the thin side, but I also noticed that some of the mattresses were better (newer) then others. So maybe you're lucky!

Lovely people and vibe, only stayed the one night but hopefully will be back some other time for longer!

Cisza i spokój. Dobre miejsce na wypoczynek. Właściciel mówił, że jest to miejsce na chill out i całkowicie się z tym zgadzam. Duży pokój z dużą łazienką.

Brak śniadań. Okna są umieszczone na wysokości ok. 1,8m więc nie ma jak przez nie wyjrzeć i w pokoju jest trochę ciemno. Obiekt nie oferuje transferu lotniskowego jak to miał w ofercie. Dla mnie odpowiedź żeby zamówił sobie Graba nie jest transferem.

Good location Amazing staff

I spent 4 days at Home Sol Guesthouse and ready enjoyed my stay. It’s located in the north part of Pantai Cenang which is the best and more quiet part of the beach. I stayed in a dorm that has ac, fan and bathroom inside; all beds have curtains, lamp and a safe lock where you can tou your own padlock. There’s tea, coffee and filters water for free. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. All the place is clean and organized.

The dorms don’t have windows

The hostel was really practical and the location was great. Amazing local restaurant just next door, the beach was really close. And the people working there where very nice

There was no Air Con outside the rooms so if you wanted to spend time at the lobby talking with other guests was a bit warm, but with the fan was nice enough.

Just a perfect location and vibe. 5-10 min walking to the centre, very quiet place to be. Staff very friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back here again.

Amazing owner, he allowed me to store my luggage for quite some time and every room was kept clean. The common area is just pure vibes to hang out with other solo travellers!

It was the last stop during my travels and I really loved this place. I had a great time with Gonzalo and his team and they were all super helpful when it came to recommendations on things to do, booking of activities, scooter rental, etc. I only staid 3 nights, but felt instantly at home. You can see and feel that they put lots of effort in the place, the cozy small hangout areas around the building make it super nice to hangout, chat to people or just chill and relax. I also spent one night in a private room, which was super nice and comfortable. Wish I could have stayed longer at Home Sol and in Langkawi :)

L’emplacement, la propreté, la mise à disposition d’eau froide et chaude. Chambre spacieuse dimple et fonctionnelle!

Le bruit ( musique, discussions, canalisation), aucune isolation donc on entend tout des voisins jusqu’à ce que tout le monde dorme. Ensuite tranquille de minuit à 9h. Couche tôt d’abstenir😉

It was super close to everything, and the staff was very friendly, flexible, and helpful

Everything was good

Gute Lage und freundliches Personal, ich habe dort eine Kajaktour durch die Mangroven gebucht.

Die Elektrik ist schwer zu verstehen, unbedingt fragen, wenn was nicht funktioniert.

A nice stay in a spacious, clean room that felt homely and had lovely little touches. Staff are helpful and kind.

Unterkunft sehr sauber, Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit, tolle Lage nahe am Strand und zu vielen Restaurants und Warungs, Wasserspender&Kaffee&Tee kostenlos, liebevoll gestalteter Gemeinschaftsbereich

Im ganzen Haus riecht es stark nach Räucherstäbchen (manche mögen das, andere nicht). Im Zimmer waren viele Moskitos, kaum hat man einen erwischt, kam auch schon der Nächste angeflogen. Die Wände sind wirklich sehr dünn und hellhörig.

I ended up extending my stay twice because I loved the place so much. The guests hanging out in the common areas are usually the chill + want to meet people type. Not a party hostel, which for me is perfect. I got to meet great people and I got to rest. The staff are lovely. I just felt like home and this is the place that was the hardest to leave from my entire trip.

La particolarità ed il clima

النظافه والموظفين

بعده عن المواقع الحيوية ولكن لا يقلل من تقييمه

Good location, friendly staff and clean rooms. Really enjoyed staying here. If you like guesthouses or hostels this is one of the best places to meet new people and hang out. The manager is very friendly and we had a lot of fun staying and spending time there at night. If you enjoy this kind of atmosphere you should definitely stay here.

The washroom was decent and everything was workable. The hot water was not very hot but still usable.

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft! Sie liegt sehr nah am Strand, und der Gastgeber war äußerst freundlich, sodass man sich sofort willkommen gefühlt hat. Außerdem gibt er hilfreiche Tipps und verleiht auch Roller, die deutlich günstiger und qualitativ besser ist als die Angebote in der Umgebung. Alles war sauber, und insgesamt hat einfach alles reibungslos funktioniert. Wir können diese Unterkunft nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen!“

Muy bien ubicado. los chicos que atienden eran muy simpáticos, nos ayudaron a bookear nuestra ida a la próxima isla. Buen precio para lo que ofrece, es súper onda backpacker.

La ubicación! El personal muy atento!

People are extremely friendly and bed is good.

If you have OCD dont come here as the bathrooms are very bad and sticky with all the others hanging cloths to doors. No separate bath area in bathroom and the toilet bowl gets wet all the time due to water from showers.

Fantástica localización y trato excelente

Ce hostel est situé à 2 pas de Pantai Cenang qui est la plage principale de l’île (un peu touristique néanmoins). Il propose une location de scooters ce qui permet de parcourir toute l’île et d’aller voir des plages un peu plus sauvages. Les espaces communs sont décorés avec goût et avec plusieurs endroits différents où se poser. L’ambiance est très reposante et familiale. Je recommande vivement ce hostel !!

Seulement 2 douches et 2 toilettes disponibles pour tout l’établissement lorsque l’on prend un dortoir. Mais cela n’a pas été gênant car il n’y avait pas d’attente lorsque j’y étais.

Good location, friendly staff, a lot of activities accessible.

Nothing.

friendly staff good vibes always eager to help big room good location good common area

I'll be totally honest "deluxe" is not the greatest word for the room... it has humidity bugs, the fan is really dirty, you need to use slippers to wash your hands because the sink has no internal pipes and water will splash your feet, there is no place to store your clothes and only one kind of chair for a room supposedly for 3 people these are small things that can make the stay a lot more comfortable despite all that I put a high score because Gonzalo and Nuno have the best vibes and the atmosphere the hostel generates is really cool

Friendly atmosphere, nice clean room.

The water tank wasn’t working.

Super clean | close to the beach | full of international people | owner & personal very friendly and helpful

The room was spacious and clean. Good WiFi connection. Bathroom was big and water pressure was excellent. It had common area to get hot and cold drinking water (Coway) which was good. Many plug points. Had both aircon and ceiling fan - superb.

Would have been better if the room had a working table and chair since it was a business trip for me. Nonetheless the owner gave me a chair so that i can do my work. Very sweet of him. Thank you, Gonzalos.

The location is so good. Near the airport, near the beach. And the people are so lovely. Everyone is very polite, friendly and helpful. I had a very good stay there. I am gonna miss langkawi and this place though 🥰💞

Nothing 😊

Awesome location, really friendly atmosphere and great staff.

The single bed in the family room might need a new mattress or a topper….springs quite protruding.

I had an amazing time at Home Sol Guesthouse — it truly felt like a home away from home. The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and perfect for travelers who want to experience the real Langkawi with a personal touch. A special mention goes to the incredible volunteers, Talin and Luis, who made my stay even more memorable. They were always around to help with anything, shared their local tips, and gave me some of the best recommendations for exploring the island. Thanks to them, I discovered places I would have never found on my own. Their friendly and genuine attitude really created a positive vibe at the guesthouse. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the common areas are ideal for meeting other travelers or simply relaxing after a day of exploring. You can tell that the people here care about creating a great experience for every guest. I can highly recommend Home Sol to anyone coming to Langkawi, whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with friends. Thank you again to the whole team — I will definitely be back!

Location Cleanliness Personnelles

It felt like coming home. The outside area felt like a cozy living room and was perfect to chill! The beach is 2 min. away and has the most beautiful sunset! Gonzalo, vane and javi really made my stay! Thanks to you guys!

Great location, great vibe, really close to the beach and you can book trips here.

Good location, nice staff

Great location, lovely staff. Nice energy and decor. Good powerful shower with warm water.

There was just one thing letting this place down for me. The beds were some of the most uncomfortable I've slept in, and I've been travelling for years. The mattress was so thin, and it felt like something hard was poking to in the middle. I ached all over when I woke. Plus, the fact that they are the squeakiest beds ever. Every time anyone moved the bed, he made loud noise and shook.

Nice cozy place feels like your in a family house where you interact with everyone and the owners are very nice people )

Friendly staff Great location Nice shared space

Great place to hang out in Langkawi. Location is perfect and very quiet to rest. Good vibes, helpful staff and cozy atmosphere! Muchas gracias.

We stayed at a room with private bathroom. Backpackers share a room with multiple beds and shared bathroom. The super friendly owner, Gonzalo, provides hot/cold filtered water, coffee and tea 24/7. He also provided multiple recommendations for restaurants and the area in general. Don't expect a 4- or 5-star hotel, it's a modest guest house, but very clean and comfortable, and with an excellent vibe. Yet, it's very quiet for a good night sleep. Very close to the beach and the commercial area with countless shops and restaurants. If using Grab, enter the Thai restaurant right next door to Sol Guesthouse, which is called Pai Kin Cfood.

We booked as the review score was high but in all honesty our room was not a 9, there was an awful smell and air-con was on but didn't seem to do anything. The bedding was very tired and the blanket was rough and small. That said the staff were friendly and it's great location, not noisy.

Air-conditioning poor Awful smell in room

The location and the atmosphere!

A light for the mirror in the bathroom would be appreciated!
