Dhaka Gulshan Hotels

I booked 2 nights through Trip.com, but when I checked in, the hotel said they hadn’t received any information and asked me to pay again. I was shocked — I’ve travelled worldwide and never faced this before. Trip.com confirmed they had informed the hotel at the time of booking. It seems the front desk staff, or even the manager, lacked knowledge about checking online bookings. Very unprofessional!

The location is good, the room is clean and tidy, and the staff is friendly and helpful

Excellent clean hotel. Good breakfast including elements of Asian cuisine. I think the prices for the cafe are too high, because there are more budget-friendly cafes nearby, but not inferior in quality of services.

The variety of the breakfast is good and tasty to start for the day. It is suggested that TV program in the restaurant should be English news broad casting, like BBC, instead of sports due to my personal interest. The view from my room is not so superb.

It's a good hotel but they were making renovation during the day it was loud and gave me headache they give me another room but that didn't help. .i needed to do some work and calls it was impossible. But the staff and manager were very friendly . I suggest if you want not to disappoint your guests shut down the place for a couple of days and make the renovation 24/7 till it's finished .than you avoid angry guests who stay away next time. Because they pay top price for uncomfortable stay in pearl hotel .

Very clean hotel and the service was great! Everyone spoke good english and was very courteous even the security guards that opened the door for you. I had an issue with my bed and they promptly fixed it. Location is alright. It's right in Dhaka, but due to how the roads are built, when traveling by car, you have to make a big loop to get to the building. They decided to clean the water tanks mid day, so the water was orange for several hours. They told us to run the water for 15 minutes after but it was still yellow tinge and the remainder of the stay. Design of the shower is awful. No hooks nearby. You have to walk across the bathroom to get the towels and no where to hang them. The showerhead is attached about 4 feet high so it shoots at your chest or you can use the rainfall shower head where it pours directly down. Breakfast was mediocre. Selection was ok, taste was ok, but it was not fresh and the good items were not refilled frequently enough.

There are two hotels in Lakeshore. There is no parking space at the entrance of Banani. The room is quiet, breakfast is OK, and the service is warm.

I stayed for one night at bengal canary park, and it was a pleasant enough experience. It’s a hotel geared towards professionals (mostly from india) visiting the gulshan area for work, so it might not be the best option for tourists. The room was quite small, and the breakfast buffet was limited (with too many veg. Options. I had one meal at the restaurant, and it was average, considering the great food i generally had in bangladesh. I had also booked at the last minute, so my friend and i ended up getting rooms two floors apart, which kind of affected my experience. Of course, there were several pluses, too. The service was professional and polite. The location is great for trying out eateries in gulshan, and the hotel even allows ordering from outside. I couldn’t get a late check-out as the hotel seemed to be overbooked, but i had a fairly comfortable time at the cafeteria section while waiting to leave for the airport. The best part of my stay was a helpful gesture from the hotel staff. I had seen a bangladesh tourism book at the hotel and had enquired if i could purchase it from a bookstore nearby. While i was checking out, the gentleman at the reception handed me a wrapped copy of the book, which was very thoughtful and unexpected. I missed noting his name, but this small gesture was very appreciated.

The room is very clean and tidy, the layout is very warm, the surrounding is very safe, close to the city center, there are large supermarkets around, shopping is convenient. The service is warm, friendly, courteous and caring. I will stay here next time.
