This place has a very strategic location, only 15 minutes from the airport by car and 5 minutes from Cenang Beach by walking. There are also plenty of shops, 7-Eleven, and local restaurants nearby. Mantra, the owner, is a very warm, welcoming, and friendly person. We were given trust and freedom to do our tasks responsibly. The other volunteers were also kind and helpful. I made many wonderful memories here, and it truly felt like home. I highly recommend this place!

I had a really nice time volunteering at the hostel, even though I was there for one week. Mantra and Kyairy were kind and welcoming and I really enjoyed spending time and talking with them even though they were a bit busy preparing to close the hostel. I was happy to help,especially with housekeeping and welcoming guests. I also met a lovely group of travelers and we shared so many great moments together. It was an honor to be there for the final days the hostel. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience. 😊

An amazing experience be part of this hostel for 2 weeks. Mantra showed me the main local places and suggestions for local food and culture. I recommend for sure if you're thinking on coming to Langkawi. Also you will meet Raj, best person in the island to go out and enjoy your free time!

Wow! Staying at House of Lion was an incredibly exciting experience. Mantra is a great host - very open, free-spirited, but well organised and professional when it's needed. She has built a big community of people (employees and volunteers) around her, who instantly take you in as family. Being Malay and having lived in Langkawi for the last 5yrs (if i remember correctly 😅) she is the keeper of all the best reccs around the island - food, beaches, sunsets and parties. 🚀 I really enjoyed staying with her and would come back anytime! ❤️‍🔥
