Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Gulshan
Le Méridien brings its European Art Deco sensibility and culturally inspired programming to Gulshan's most prominent hotel position — the coffee bar doubles as an art gallery, the bar's cocktail menu is the most creative in Dhaka, and the spa's treatments use Bangladeshi mustard oil and neem leaf therapies that draw on the subcontinent's deepest wellness traditions.
Kawran Bazar
The Pan Pacific Sonargaon is Dhaka's most established five-star landmark — a 28-floor tower in the commercial heart of the city that has hosted every head of state visiting Bangladesh since it opened in 1981. The rooftop restaurant, the heated pool, and the 24-hour room service of international standard make it the most dependable luxury address in the country for business travellers.
Gulshan
The finest locally owned boutique hotel in Dhaka — Six Seasons has built an exceptional reputation over two decades for genuinely personal service, beautiful contemporary interiors using local Bangladeshi craftsmanship, and a restaurant (Nineteen) considered among the finest in the country. It is a particular favourite with the development community and NGO professionals who return season after season.
Uttara
A comprehensive resort-hotel complex in Uttara, the Dhaka Regency combines a large convention centre with 17 acres of green grounds — an unusually spacious urban property with multiple swimming pools, tennis courts, and a broad range of international and Bangladeshi restaurant options. Consistently chosen for large corporate events.
The Radisson Blu Water Garden is Dhaka's most distinctive hotel — a series of pavilions set around a 3-hectare artificial lake in Uttara, just 10 minutes from the airport. The lake-view rooms, outdoor swimming pool, and extensive meeting facilities make it the primary choice for business events and airport-convenience stays in the city.
Motijheel
Named for the liberation year, Hotel 71 is Dhaka's most historically resonant mid-range property — a smart, contemporary hotel in the commercial heart of Motijheel, priced at a fraction of the Gulshan properties and consistently well-reviewed for its clean rooms, attentive Bangladeshi service, and central positioning near the historic buildings of the old commercial district.
