View All HotelsLuxury Hotels in Kedah — What to Expect
Often called Malaysia's rice bowl, Kedah offers a different pace from the country's busier coasts. The main draw is the stunning Langkawi archipelago, a cluster of 99 islands where you can ride the SkyCab cable car to the peak of Mount Mat Cincang or relax on the white sands of Pantai Cenang. On the mainland, the state capital Alor Setar provides a dose of history with its elegant Zahir Mosque and the rustic charm of the paddy fields that stretch towards the Thai border. It’s a destination for those seeking both island relaxation and authentic cultural sights.
For a beach holiday, base yourself on Langkawi, particularly around Pantai Cenang for its easy access to restaurants and water sports, which suits families and couples perfectly. Alor Setar is ideal for solo travelers and culture enthusiasts wanting to explore traditional Malay architecture and local markets. Getting around is straightforward; Langkawi has an international airport and good local taxi services, while the mainland is well-connected by train and road from Penang and Kuala Lumpur.
Accommodation here is dominated by Langkawi’s range of international beach resorts and charming boutique hotels, alongside more budget-friendly options in the towns. On HOTEVI, you can find places like the Berjaya Langkawi Resort, set in a rainforest by the sea, or the more urban Alor Star Hotel in the state capital for a convenient city stay.
