City Center hotels & accommodations

In this budget, this is definitely best hotel I can find. Deluxe hotel is new one so it is well maintained, hardly see the mosquito.. You can see few but it is really normal in Island. There is new big supermarket opened right below the hotel so you can purchase anything you urgently need, it opens until 2 am. This only thing you have to think is you cannot carry to...

this hotel right next to the end of walking street. the hotel is very nice compare to the price i paid on koh lipe. staff are all friendly and very helpful. the hotel is right in city center but it's really quiet at night or even in the morning. i would definitely stay here again.

Our stay at The Noi guesthouse was great, the staff is incredible and go out of their way to help you, from taxi ride to anywhere on the island, to helping us with our multiple questions and requests - and we had the best Thai food on the island at Noi. Location is perfect as you are in the center of the island and every beach is accessible so you're not limited to one...

Traveled during 11 - 12 Oct 2016. This hotel has great location. In city center, a few minutes walk to walking street. Clean and the price is unbelievable. Staff was not proficient enough because he was confused with my booking. It took more than 30 minutes to sort out. I understand that things like this could happen. Everything was good until the last day when they ...

I would highly recommend San Pita due to its fantastic location which is just walking distance to the beach and Walking street where all the food and shopping is located in this island. If you're coming by ferry from Langkawi, wait for their hotel transport service after clearing immigration. They will take you to the hotel on a complimentary service. No need to book a...

Spacious space, big bathroom and large double bed plus a day bed in the room. Suitable for family with children as they can sleep at the day bed. Verandah with a day bed, 2 chairs, a hammock and a wall fan, best for spending an afternoon if you don’t like sunlight and heat at the beach. Located in the center of island, at the end of walking street, within walking dista...

I was afraid because there are so many bad reviews... but actually it wasn’t bad at all. I stayed at the room woth air conditioning. Room was correctly clean. But I can see the bathroom is old and not in good condition. So it’s not about cleaning. I met cleaning ladies almost every morning, thankfully they were working hard. :-) Staff was kind and helpful. They...

When I tried to book the accomodation in Lipe, it was first week of December already which was very late to find a good one. Of course, there were a few luxury villas available at the moment but didn't want to spend $200 per night just for me myself. Thankfully, just opened a new hostel & hotel, this one had rooms and I booked female dorms for 8 nights right away. And ...

Very good hotel and location in center better because some road very dark there but street for this hotel very good with lights and near all beach you can walk just , good hotel for family and big room and bathroom , I recommend to booking this hotel

This is surely the best hostel on the island. It's extremely nice, comfortable and has a nice ambiance. The dorms are amazing and the price is fair for lipe. Be sure to book ahead, it's often full especially on weekends. I stayed at 3 places during my 9 nights on lipe (including another hostel and a private room at a budget hotel). Bloom was by far the best (but I'd ...

The hotel is nice, comfortable and mostly clean, a few spider webs and few ants here and there. Some of the rooms are rather small, but didn't bother us. Hotel is located quite center of the island, so there's nothing right next to it, but everything is at walking distance. Walking street maybe 3min walk, pattaya and sunrise beaches less than 10min. A few nice restaura...

Very nice accommodations and vibe. Watch a flick or take in the band. I would recommend the upgraded rooms as the standard need some tlc. The owner is great and the location is close. The best beach is when you walk out of the resort take a right, and then your first left. The walk is about 15 mons but you’ll find quiet beaches and the best snorkeling.

We spend in corner resort hotel 5 nights and we felt like home. Tarn and Khemmy, the owner made us feel like if we were in home, both of them they are wonderful people, they help you with everything, thank you girls :-) The room was, fresh, new and the bed is very comfortable double bed. It's located two minutes walking to the walking street but it's quiet. If we ever ...

Very cosy little place tucked in the middle of walking street, not too far from sunrise beach. The hospitality provided was top notch with the best breakfast that we can find in Koh Lipe. Everything was convenient here, worth forgoing a seaview resort to stay here.

we are 4 people, there's no people come to pick us at immigration even i've request when booking the room. taxi driver request 50 bath per person and told us it need walk about 30 mins from immigration, but the truth is only 10 mins walk from the beachside and taxi driver appointed the far direction way to us and cause us walk a big round about 30 mins only reach hotel...

Best room type in Serene Resort. Only 2 units of this room available. The resort had a double booking and 2 of my friends had to downgrade to red cottage but were not happy with the dirty wall and old toilet. They had to move to another hotel managed by the same management. However, i like my room. Simple, clean, with good aircon and great ventilation, outside the ...

very good hotel. and on the center of Koh lipe. very friendly staff. and breakfast very good, but pls don't buy the snorkelling package on immigrate thr. due to (1) I buy short trip on first day and Long trip on second day. but on first day the co let me go Long trip first and not tell me this is Long trip. on second day, the co don't gv change , and want me change 50...

For me, the hotel is vey good location for budget trip. I think this hotel is the best hotel in Walking street on Lipe island. Another hotel is far from beach and restaurant or near the beach but looks bad. Staffs was good. Service is OK. If you looking for value hotel I think The box is the best choice. But If you want to stay in front of beach- Castaway resort is t...

This hotel is just super awesome. I am a very experienced tourist, but I meet such lovely place and staff for the first time. The bungalow is super great. Clean. New. Fresh. People who work here is just super cool. They treated us better than we deserve :) Free transfer to ferry. Good laundry. Good breakfasts. When we were alone, instead of buffet for breakfast they ju...

I loved the room, it was spacious, the bed was perfect and it's right in the center of everything. All the clubs with loud noises are pretty far away which is good for sleep. No complaints, loved it! :) Definitely recommend! P/S the restaurant opposite the resort is good too!

Good location, beside the walking street, opposite to the 7-11 store. Room is clean and quiet, the bed is big and comfortable. The boss of this hotel is very nice and interesting.It is convenient and safe in this hotel. We like it. But no breakfast, this could be inproved.

cool concept. noise from the bar isn't really a problem especially if you're staying at the farest row from it. MOSQUITOS. in the shower - be quick or be dead. repellent is a must. location on the map is inaccurate - hostel is located right on the street, so keep going 30m after home bar and you're there. for breakfast i recommend going back to the village (sunrise dir...

We spent 1 night here in between Ko Lanta and Langkawi. PROS Centrally located within walking distance to the three major beaches Clean, hot showers and shared bathroom not far from rooms Clean room with fan (it's not during day so get air con if you can't handle warmth) Super friendly staff, especially Nikki, who was gracious and spoke excellent English Nice balco...

It is located in walking street just beside an ATM. But if you go there from the pier i would not recommend you to take the main walking street, coz on the one hand, it is too croweded, and the other if you are carrying a suicase it will be tiring to go throught the beach. There is a road just beside the pier which leads to the middle party of walking street. As for th...

Had an amazing stay at the hostel. Its an very beautiful, brand new and modern hostel. I opted for a private room, and it was like staying at a 5 star hotel. The cleaning service, condition of the room, comfort, facilities, reception staff etc etc.. are all 5 STAR. A perfectly functioning A/C, extremely comfortable bed and top notch bathroom makes for a very nice stay....
