Must-see hotels in Bangladesh

  • Hotel Mustafiz International

    Bangladesh

    The Mustafiz International does a good job of offering reliable midrange business-style accommodation to the Mymensingh scene. It has a conference room…

  • Hotel Razmoni Isha Kha

    Dhaka

    A vast auditorium-like reception leads onward to some of the better midrange rooms in this part of town. The highlights are the massive views over the…

  • Hotel Orchard Plaza

    Dhaka

    Very smart, well-run hotel with exceptionally friendly staff. Rooms are large, comfortable and frequently come with psychedelically bright fabrics…

  • Hotel Royal Palace

    Dhaka

    A slightly knocked-about-the-corners hotel, but down a relatively quiet lane off the main street. There are clean and spacious rooms, wi-fi and a…

  • Hotel Victory

    Dhaka

    This is a small, informal hotel close to the centre of Dhaka. It's a reliable option rather than a fabulously exciting one, but it's clean, comfortable…

  • Hotel Amir International

    Bangladesh

    Lots of shiny tiled floors and wood-panelled walls make this a neat and welcoming place to stay. The clean rooms come with wi-fi and satellite TV. The…

  • SEL Nibash

    Dhaka

    If you need to base yourself in Dhanmodi, you could do a lot worse than laying your head at this midrange business hotel. It's efficient rather than plush…

  • Hotel De Castle

    Dhaka

    Reliably clean and inviting rooms with a quiet and cool atmosphere. Rates include in-room wi-fi, airport pick-up and breakfast. Book ahead to try to nab…

  • Ruposhi Bangla Hotel

    Dhaka

    This slightly ageing five star hotel was closed when we visited as it was undergoing a complete renovation. Due to reopen in 2016 trading under the…

  • Hotel River View

    Bangladesh

    Don't be put off by its boxy, drab blue exterior. Shabby as it is, this is really among the better budget options in town. Overlooking the lotus-flower…

  • Parjatan Holiday Homes

    Bangladesh

    Located on the main drag, this unremarkable government-run place has decent rooms, although for a few hundred more, you will find better rooms even in its…

  • Hotel Ambassador

    Bangladesh

    The reception here is clearly more impressive than the rooms, which (despite being new) have the odd wall stain and a whiff of staleness. The cheaper fan…

  • Hotel Habib International

    Bangladesh

    A newish place on the top floors of a commercial building, Habib has a busy location but boasts fantastic river views from the common balconies. Rooms are…

  • New Safe Hotel

    Bangladesh

    This friendly hotel, above a motorbike showroom, has compact but tidy rooms with white-tiled flooring and clean bathrooms with sit-down loos. However,…

  • Hotel Shadman

    Dhaka

    Shiny-tiled corridors lead to basic but spacious rooms with TV, attached bathroom and lots of natural light (a luxury you don’t always get in budget digs…

  • Nirala Rest House

    Bangladesh

    A basic but acceptable budget option, Nirala has rooms that are small but clean enough and that come with their own small attached bathrooms (squat loo…

  • Hotel RS

    Bangladesh

    Overpriced and shabby, this hotel on top of a shopping complex and a bank has rooms that you should only consider if other places in town have filled up …

  • Hotel Ne-Taung

    Bangladesh

    Close to the ferry, this ramshackle Parjatan-run hotel is the normal lacklustre government offering. However it’s the best option near to both Teknaf and…

  • Hotel Al-Razzaque International

    Dhaka

    A good-value budget option that puts you as close to the Old Dhaka action as you can get. Al-Razzaque has small but tidy rooms with very clean bathrooms…

  • Hotel Bangkok

    Bangladesh

    This charmingly disorganised place has small rooms with deep-green walls, some of which face the river. Run by a friendly man who speaks some English, it…

  • The Chalet Hotel & Restaurant

    Dhaka

    The Chalet may lack some of the gloss of Dhaka's more expensive hotels, but its rooms really have everything you actually need, including some…

  • Hotel Midway International

    Dhaka

    Rooms here are a bit tatty round the edges, but bed sheets, floors and bathrooms are all kept clean. It's handy for access to Puran Dhaka without being in…

  • YMCA

    Bangladesh

    The YMCA has pretty basic rooms, with pokey squat-toilet bathrooms, but they overlook a huge garden, which houses the even more basic dorms. Not be…

  • Hotel Baitus Samir International

    Dhaka

    Brightly lit, clean rooms with pokey bathrooms (some with squat toilets) represent decent value for Dhaka's minimum-budget travellers. Rooms are on upper…

  • Hotel Dhansiri

    Bangladesh

    Located above Dhansiri Restaurant and run by the same proprietor, this highway motel of sorts has six huge (but overpriced) air-con rooms that can…

  • Parjatan Hotel

    Bangladesh

    There is some accommodation in Benapole – the Parjatan Hotel has large, clean suites that for some reason have two bathrooms and two bedrooms. Basic…

  • Ashik Residential Resthouse

    Bangladesh

    Old-school hotel with huge, well-furnished rooms. Slightly run down, and far from spotless, but the space makes up for the tattiness. No hot-water showers…

  • Hotel Ramna

    Dhaka

    Average hotel with bright, spacious rooms and communal balconies overlooking the busy streets below. It’s clean for the price, but still pretty basic. No…

  • Hotel Dwip Plaza

    Bangladesh

    This hotel is pretty basic, with squat toilets only, but is a cheap option in Teknaf centre.

  • Hotel Ali International

    Bangladesh

    This cheapie is a good choice only if you're on a budget and don't mind a relatively bland and boxy lodging experience. The rooms are clean but lack soul,…

  • Shekhar Plaza

    Bangladesh

    If you get stuck in Burimari, the very basic Shekhar Plaza, a green two-storey hotel on your left as you walk from the border, is the best you’ll get. No…

  • Hotel Al-Hossain

    Bangladesh

    Very basic accommodation on Maheskhali Island, somewhat less than no-frills with spartan rooms and small attached tap-and-bucket bathrooms. No English…
