"The Hospitality was TOP NOTCH. Everything was perfectly taken care of. The food / breakfast was outstanding and always on time. They even offered bonfire and a full setup to feel cozy and play music."
"Excellent rooms, very big in size. Overall feel of the hotel is very good. You get a very good and direct view of Bangladesh, so that’s an added bonus."
"Our room was on the ground floor and it was a wonderful room, spotless clean, spacious and very comfortable beds with clean sheets. The rooms have a ceiling fan as well as AC, one of the biggest positives of this place, as Dawki can get pretty hot in all seasons. Washroom was clean, with towels and toiletries provided. 24 hours hot water was available."
"Nice view from the terrace, great food (must try their Gobhi sabzi). The staff greeted us warmly, assisted with our luggage, and ensured a smooth check-in process. Throughout our stay, every team member we encountered was courteous, attentive, and genuinely eager to help."
