Fine, no frills
The bedroom was comfortable and clean, but the bathroom could have used some TLC. If you want to visit the 3-D museum or go on the cable car, the location is great, but if you are there after dark it is a complete ghost town - no restaurants or anything, and it was really hard to get a Grab car to the location. We selected the location due to its proximity to the ferry terminal, so it was a fine place to stay as a crash pad. If you are looking for amenities, you may be better off somewhere else.

It was good, the location was perfect and it was everything you could expect. Only thing I was missing was a place to charge my phone next to my bed. There was only one place with power-points.

Basic hotel, good value for the price and convenient location for the cable car. Clean bed and good air con. WiFi was a little slow. We got there early in the morning and they kindly let us leave our bags behind the desk until check in so we could explore without them. Like other reviews have said there’s not much open locally after about 7pm but we just made sure we ate before this so it was ok.

The hotel is right next to many attractions including the cable car, sky bridge and 3D art museum. It is only a 10 minute walk to a lovely almost completely secluded beach. It is also pretty close to the trail to the 7 wells waterfall. It is placed in the Oriental village which is like a tiny theme park so it does get a bit noisy from 9am onwards with music, tannoys, people, etc. Occassionally there was also maintenance noises at night. The room is comfortable with air con, nice bed, fridge, desk and en suite. The bathroom did look a little worn down and often there was the sound of constant running water. This personally didn't bother me too much though because I could just close the door and block out the noise. There was only one power point though and this did irritate me. The maids were excellent and always left the room immaculate. The reception staff were very friendly and were happy to help with any issue no matter how bizarre. They spent a long time trying to help me find a watch I thought I might have dropped in a taxi earlier. Overall a very good stay. Not a luxury hotel but very good for the price.

Basic Need for Reasonable Price
Not many restaurants nearby. But is is so close to the cable car and 3D Museum. The hillside view is spectacular. The staff is so helpful. We requested for prayer mat and extra towel, and the staff came to give them immedately. Need to pay for breakfast. Overall ghe botel provide the most basic need for reasonable price.

You get what you paid for - not a relaxed stay
I booked 3 nights and ended up checked out early after one night as the whole experience wasn't so great. The hotel staff didn't even bother and just let me return my key. I think I can't complain too much because it's pretty much what you paid for. However, for this price you can get a very decent hotel with great experience in Phuket or other southeast asian countries. The only good thing is the location - situated right at the Langkawi Cable car. The room was also super noisy. It's definitely not a place you can relax. The bed sheets and blankets were quite dirty. Wifi is also in very poor signal most of the time.

more of a quick in and out place
The front desk staff don't tell you much like where you could find breakfast since they don't provide it. A/C was noisy. During slow season pretty much everything closes by 6:30pm. A couple food places might be open till 8pm. They say they have wifi but your lucky if you actually get connected. But the higher end resort has the same problem. Only good thing about this place is you are steps away from the ok attractions. Not impressive but alright.

Better if you day trip..
Decent hotel, room was fine, however breakfast is terrible, but you will need to pay for it anyway as nothing in the village opens until 10 am (nowhere else to get food or drink in the morning). One day they had eggs the day after they didn't, so we were stuck with cold beans and peanut butter on toast, also no coffee second day. The place is like a ghost town when the day trippers leave, almost like a Scooby doo episode. All the shops shut at 7pm, only the Japanese restaurant open which you have to book. Go there on a day trip, don't stay at the geopark!

Need improvement on certain areas.
You are at the strategic place, so do upgrade your room with carpet flooring. Your reception counter should more lively as like resort. Over all i am an happy customer but need more improvement on your services and interior design to look more bright and lively. Should provide iron box inside the room instead sharing out and also hair dyer.

Close to the cable car.
There are a lot of activities to do around the hotel however after 8pm when the cable car is closed, the whole area is deserted. Only about 2 restaurants that is open till 10pm. Other than that it's a ghost town. But during the day there is a hive of activities that can be done. Only drawback is the nightlife.

Location was great for the cable car and its nearby attractions. The fish pond was excellent (enjoyed feeding the fishes) but the water was drying up due to the season. Surrounding was well kept. Overall room condition was average, we had issues with the locking system. Breakfast (paid) was below average and can be improved.

Needs some remodeling.
This hotel is fairly run down and a bit far from the popular beaches. But super convenient for the cable car ride, which is literally next door and the only main activity we planned for our short stay. Be sure to check whether the SkyBridge renovations are done before visiting. We arrived around in the evening, and unfortunately, almost all the convenient stores and restaurants in the park were closed. The only place open was an overpriced Japanese restaurant. Plan to stay at a proper hotel the next time we return.

Far away from city. Nothing to do at night. Need to hire a taxi to go to city to buy dinner. Hotel room furnitures are so old and so smelly. I had to buy a air freshener and spray every 10 minutes. There was a tv in the room but does not show any program. Sorry but not recommended

Horrible feeling towards the hotel
I stayed at Geopark Hotel by myself, I felt horrified due to the lock of the room door, widows are unscrewed or cannot close. I changed rooms twice. Rooms are dark and dirty. Although it is very close to the cable car, it is a run down hotel. I won't go back there anymore.

I almost had an accident in the pool which is quite a walk from the hotel. I had a cross a small bridge to get there. Pool closes at 7pm and the middle step of the three step pool ladder was missing. It was very difficult to get out of the pool. It is not a 3 star hotel as advertised.

Away from the town
Hotel is located at Oriental Village, near the cable car. There are small shops and people around in the day but the area is very isolated at night - no lights, no activity, no shops open. Hotel room is spacious, generally clean, only 2 levels of rooms. TV not working well, bad connection. Wifi is working alright. However only one wall socket available. No hair dryer too.

good location for the main attraction of the island ie the skycab cable car and the village has a lot to offer of modern life. water heater not fully functioning. noisy place as main attraction is very nearby but for those used to have that situation is okay. internet service intermittent which is frustrating. swimming pool was closed for maintenance for days is much frustrating as my main intention to have swimming fun for family dampened my expectation besides costly car rental and rides.

Great Location
Great location, we spent our last day exploring Oriental Village, shopping for souvenirs and riding the cable car. Room is basic and this is the place for travelers on a tight budget, a little worn but it was clean and a good size. It was a little too noisy at night for me (not people, more like nature is apparently very talkative at that time). Hiking nearby and the cafeteria was decently priced. The food was good but closes really early. Our flight out of LGK was very early in the morning, a guy at the front desk gave us an inflated price for a taxi ride back to the airport, stating it was due to the early time. We paid it but it was an obvious ripoff, we had no choice because we were making arrangements late the night before.

Langkawi Goepark, westerners not welcome!
The hotel is run down and in need of a lot of care and attention. There is no alcohol in the Oriental village complex due to the overwhelming muslim comunity so a cold beer is out of the question. The included breakfast was really just toast and sugary orange juice. The room was advertised as premium and was the most expensive at the hotel. We were dissapointed with the level of cleanliness, amenities and the general standard of the place. The brochure is misleading and not accurate at all. Safe to say we would not return to this Hotel again.... ever.
