Gulshan

Hotel Amari Dhaka

The Amari Dhaka is the finest new hotel in Gulshan — a contemporary Thai-brand property that brings Amari's signature warmth and design sensibility to Dhaka's diplomatic district. The rooftop pool and bar are the most scenic in the city; the Mosaic restaurant's international and Bangladeshi menus are consistently excellent; and the location on the Gulshan 2 circle is among the most convenient in the city.

About This Guide

The view from above changes everything. Dhaka's best rooftop hotels don't just offer a room with a view — they offer entire elevated experiences. Rooftop bars where the city's skyline becomes your backdrop, infinity pools that seem to merge with the horizon, and open-air restaurants where every table has a panorama. Hotel Amari Dhaka boasts what many consider the finest rooftop panorama in Dhaka, with 360-degree views and a cocktail programme curated by an award-winning mixologist. Lakeshore Hotel & Apartment features a stunning infinity pool that's become one of the most photographed hotel features in the city. We've evaluated not just the views but the complete rooftop experience — quality of food and drinks, atmosphere, seating comfort, and whether the space feels genuinely special or merely elevated.

    Make dinner reservations for rooftop restaurants well in advance, especially on weekends.

  • 3

    Pack a light layer — rooftop temperatures can drop significantly after sunset.

  • 4
