Tubotel
Kuala Cenang Pantai Cenang, 07000 Pantai Cenang, Malaysia – Great location - show map
Location very good, unique and very kind staff. High recommend
AustraliaGreat views, really friendly staff. place was pretty much empty as I was there just before Ramadan. breakfast is cooked properly and the pancakes and fresh fruit were lovely.
AustraliaAs a solo traveller, I really enjoyed the vibe of Turbotel. Loved the staff and owners. Uncle Mike is a gem. The breakfast is the best I've had on my 2 months trip through Indonesia and Malaysia. The Seaview is to die for. Spent most of my time sitting in my favourite spot, watching the ocean, boats coming and going and people coming for dinner. Thank you Alex and Co, for an awesome time.
South AfricaBreakfast was outstanding. Lots of choice, and choices that I have never seen before. The quality and taste of all 4 breakfasts we had were fantastic. It was the best breakfast we had from 112 days of travelling Asia in similarly priced hotels. Staff were great, helpful and always on hand (including the boss, his wife and waitress Nanna). Seaview was beautiful. The hotel was very unique, colourful and well decorated. A quirky stay in the tube. There was a cute friendly dog on site. Free filtered chilled water on site.
United KingdomAlex and his staff were great. 5 star views and fantastic food at Tapas restaurant. Will be back
United Kingdomperfect location, fantastic cooked breakfast , amazing views , friendly staff, unique
United Kingdomunique hostel with a reasonably good location. there’s a short cut to town that google doesn’t pick up, and also some e-scooters so the beach isn’t too far. cheap local laundry service and within the property they do a good breakfast and cheap beers. relaxing vibe and an entertaining owner Alex!
New ZealandThe staff were great and helped me organise staying an extra night. The food was amazing and well worth the money. The tubes were super clean and had enough space for 2. I upgraded to the sun view, which was well worth it for the sunsets
United KingdomThis was the best hotel so far in Malaysia!! The staff and owner were really nice, the included breakfast was amazing and the view out of the room/tube breathtaking. Would definitely recommend staying here!
SwitzerlandBreakfast was amazing, definitely one of the highlights. Tube and view directly at the sea side made it a great experience. Renting a car or a scooter is recommended when you stay longer. From the airport you can easily reach the accomodation via the taxi app grap. Taxis are very cheap in comparison to European taxi prices and even at 6 in the morning I immediately found a taxi to go back to the airport.
