Royal Park Residence Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Best value of money for a hotel in Dhaka. The staff were super helpful, the neighborhood was unusually calm, and the hotel location is close to the hotspots. However, I didn’t use the gym and the pool was not well maintained. Moreover, the room used a split AC unit and is pretty average in cleanliness, nevertheless it’s worth what you are paying for it. Lastly, the business lounge is useful for meetings and the reception is helpful in arranging pickups and drop offs for the airport."
