Dhaka guide

Top 10 verified serviced apartments in Dhaka (2026)

Ten private, manually checked stays across Gulshan, Banani, Bashundhara and the DOHS blocks — picked for travellers who'd rather skip the hotel lobby and pay with bKash or Nagad.

Why a serviced apartment beats a hotel in Dhaka

Traffic, security checks, and shared lobbies make most Dhaka hotel stays feel longer than they are. A verified serviced apartment in a managed building gives you a private entrance, a real kitchen, and a host you can message before you book. Pay locally with bKash or Nagad and skip the card-machine queue at check-in entirely.

Which Dhaka neighbourhood is right for you?

Gulshan & Banani are the diplomatic and corporate heart — best for business stays and food. Bashundhara is quieter and family-oriented, with bigger flats for the money. Uttara is closest to the airport. Dhanmondi works well for medical visits and lake-side walks.
