UNREACHABLE

I could not check-in at all. The hotel was closed and I could not contact anyone with phone or email or any other way. I tried calling every number possible and every email possible. All the numbers were not available and no reply to email. I did get message from facebook later in the night that they will make it up to me when they will open. But so far the booking was a total waste of my money.

途中でチェックアウトしてしまったが良いホテルです

1人でツイン利用です。 夜0時頃の到着でしたが警備の方共々笑顔で出迎えてくれました。 入り口は少し長めの階段ですが、荷物をいつも持ってくれます。 チェックインではポーターさんが部屋の隅々まで案内してくれました。 部屋は広くベッドも大きく充分清潔でしたが、個人的にトイレ・シャワーが完全にフラットな仕切りのない空間だったのが完全にアウトでした。 しかし清潔ではあったので、気にならない方であればそこまで高くない価格ですのでおすすめします。 空港についた直後から蚊だらけで不安でしたが、6階ということもあってなのかホテル内では蚊を見ませんでした。 シャワーはレインシャワーとカランのみ、タイル貼りで便器・洗面台ともに普通です。 しかしやはりシャワーを浴びると、レインシャワーのみということもあり便器がびしょ濡れです。 他レビューにもあるように、スイッチを入れてから10分するとお湯が出るそうです。 私は疲れていたこともあり、ポーターさんに「スイッチ入れてくれてますか？」と確認すると「Yes」と言ってくれたので、自分で確認もせずに入ってしまい案の定水を浴びてしまいました。 赤いスイッチを入れると光ります。 やはりダッカの性質上、外は夜通しうるさく6階でも音はかなり聞こえました。 翌朝、どうしてもシャワーが苦手なことをフロントに伝えると、 9階の同タイプの部屋を見せてくれ、少し狭くなりますが シャワールームに気持ち程度にカーテンがあったため、そこに変更しておいてくれるということになりました。 ちなみに朝食はルーフトップでオムレツやパン、バングラや南アジア系のビュッフェでした。 スパイシーなものや油っこいものが苦手な方も、パンやオムレツがあるのでお腹は膨れると思います。 夕方、部屋に戻ると部屋の変更もベッドメイクもされていなかったため、フロントに話しに行くと「6階も9階も部屋は同じタイプなので変更しても意味がない」と受け付けてくれませんでした。 朝とは当然人も変わっているので仕方ありませんが、疲れていたこともありベッドメイクを待ったり同じシャワーを浴びる気力もなかったので、すぐに別のホテルを予約してチェックアウトしてしまいました。 チェックアウトの際は、フロントで「どうにか良い部屋にしましょう」と努力してくださりましたが、 既にキャンセル不可の当日予約を取ってしまっていたため、ありがたかったですがお断りしました。 私のコミュニケーション不足と適応能力であまり好きなホテルではありませんが、とても良いホテルだと思います。

Good hotel but far away from the airport

Good location, located at the center of local market. Will give 5star for their service. Wifi strength was poor. Had both English and local options for breakfast. Hotel is ~15km away from airport, takes more than 1.5hrs to reach. traffic jam/delay in Dhaka is very common. Prepaid taxi from airport to hotel costs 900-1500Tk depending upon your negotiation skills.

Perfect Stay!

Wonderful, comfortable hotel with so many surprising, welcome "extras" (like toothbrushes, combs, built-in converters/adapters, and even a prayer mat provided in the room). The reception staff were always kind and helpful, including when I had to extend the room by half a day; the restaurant upstairs had a great breakfast spread and perfect, fresh mango juice; and the hotel is right near a market, lots of shops, and some great restaurants. It's a fairly short distance to museums and other highlights in Dhaka, too. My stay was too short! I hope to return, and I would definitely book at this hotel again.

The room itself was good but the bathroom needed to be updated a bit. On arrival, the room was hot so I turned on the air but wasnʻt getting much cool air. Checked the filters and it was thick with crud. Called front desk they sent someone to wash the filters but they never returned with the filters the 8 days I was there. Shower curtain did not contain the water in the shower proper and it got everywhere. No bath mat to step out onto and slipped and almost fell. Toilet bowl looked clean on the inside but around the seat was yuk which I personally cleaned. Cups in the room were not washed with soap. Just rinsed and wondered it were cups used by every guest before me without being washed. Breakfast in the Skylight BBQ Cafe was really bad. The room was hot. Choice of food was sad. Had to run the bread through the toaster 3 times to get it toasted. Butter bowl was empty and had to ask the server refill. He was just standing around but doesnʻt check the buffet line. He refilled with frozen butter dropped a piece of butter on the table, which didnʻt look very clean and tossed it back into the butter bowl. Server dusted the crumbs and droppings from guests onto the floor after guests left their tables. Room was not air conditioned, the windows and floors were very dirty. Serving staff needs training on etiquette and cleanliness and a little lesson in person skills 101 would not hurt. Front desk staff was very amiable and helpful.

Hidden Gem!!

My stay with this hotel was very pleasing. The overall condition and the services available was really good. The staffs are well trained and the rooftop restaurant is a nice addition which really provides a dynamic view of the Dhaka city. Th room was pretty clean and my bed was very comfy also. But I do think bathroom requires a little bit more attention just with respect to cleanliness as this is the place which demands flawless cleaning. Hope to visit this hotel again in the near future.

Extremely disappointing

I stayed only for two nights and even if I selected the non-smoking room option, I was given FOUR smelly smoking rooms until they finally accepted to upgrade me to a non-smoking FIFTH ROOM – and they made me pay the difference. I'm allergic to mold and fungus, and I said it from the beginning, so this hotel was not a healthy option for me. I got sick after the first night. The staff is kind but absolutely unable to provide solutions and not flexible in terms of service. The breakfast is just ok – no effort to make it any special. I wouldn't go back, especially because I got sick.
