The Chic Lipe

Really solid hostel one of the best ive stayed in South East Asia, really feels chic with solid rooms and common area. Only reason i did not give 5 stars is they have a mosquito problem esp in the common areas. If they deal with this, I would gladly give 5 or even bonus stars cos its a really good hostel, best on the island jn terms of vibes and aesthetic

A lot of space and the dorms are nice. Good location and friendly staff! No paper/towels in the bathroom and could need cleaning more often but otherwise good stay.

This is one of the most modern hostel in centre of Lipe. We booked a private Room, toilet is spacious. The room’s ceiling is really high and I like that. It’s clean and quiet. TV is working. Staff is accommodating but maybe if there is 2 person working at front desk would be better. Location wise, we walked for about 20mins to sunrise beach, 2 minutes to 7-11 / walking street. About 10mins to/from pier. Toiletries are sufficient, they replenish Tissue rolls and 2 small bottled water every day except for check out day. We didn’t use but Toothbrushes, shower cap, shower gel and shampoo were provided with nice laundry basket and open wardrobe area. Just 3 comments for improvement are the shower head, water heater and mosquitoes. I wish they could cleaned up the stocked holes of shower head so the water was more balance and better showering experience. The water pressure is really good so if you accidentally open the water at max right away, the shower head will spray hard and up. I got my hair face and hair wet because of this 😅 The instant water heater will suddenly off after about 5-7 minutes or so. I didn’t keep track but it will off and we had to turn it off, wait a while, then on it back before we can continue with hot shower. Mosquitoes were a lot at the entrance to our room, a few would definitely flew in whenever we open the door. They were huge and biting so advise to either get mosquitoes repellant or if the hostel can do something about this. Most it were resting at the curtain in the room if not flying around. Still recommended place to stay.

New hostel, Clean and Chic hostel. Location is good. U just walk only 2mins to walking street and Sun rise beach, 14 mins to sunset beach. A lot of food and shop near by hostel.

beautiful hostel, modern, spacious, and spotlessly clean. I stayed in a single room ( big bed rom and bathroom !! ) The staff are very professional and helpful. Breakfast is plentiful with three different options, which was more than enough for me. There are also fruits, bread, coffee, and water. I was so happy that I didn't want to leave.

The Chic Lipe is amazing! The rooms are comfortable, the vibe is really cool, and the breakfast was good. Service was friendly and helpful, and the location is super convenient. Great place to stay on the island!

So the people who work here are lovely. Issue is the location and it's swarming with mosquitos. Whoever decided to build here is not very bright. The breakfast menu was 3 choices - easily the worst in 4 years of travelling. Finally the never gave me my ID back and now in Malaysia. Needs someone with balls to manage this...could be so much better.

The location and facilities were fine, but the Reception desk staff’s attitude was very disappointing. When I asked about getting some ice, the receptionist simply told me to “go to 7-Eleven,” even though ice was easily available in the hostel kitchen or the shop right next door. Also, just 30 minutes before the staff shift ended, I asked for a simple bowl, but was refused with the excuse that the hostel’s restaurant was closed, even though it could have been easily provided. Such small gestures of service would have made a big difference. Overall, I felt there was a lack of guest care and service mindset. Prices are also much higher than average – nearly double, and even 7-Eleven prices here are 2–3 times more expensive compared to the mainland.
