I recently completed a two-week visit to Bangladesh and stayed at three different hotels. I will not only review them in detail but give an overview of my experience of budget hotels in Bangladesh as a tourist.

Most of my thoughts, comments, and opinions on all three of these properties are the same so there will be some copying and pasting in these reviews.

Tourists wishing to arrive in Bangladesh and receive a visa on arrival (VOA) are advised to have hotel bookings and Proof of Onward Travel (POOT). I made both hard and digital copies of all my bookings and they were checked at both the airline check-in counter and immigration in Dhaka.

However, no one was interested in more than a few days of hotel bookings and I only presented hotel reservations for the first four nights. This is important for those of us who are plan-as-you-go travelers and don’t like to make bookings ahead of time. In the future, I will only book the first few nights and see how that goes.

I ended up canceling several reservations (bookings) I made through Agoda because I changed my plans, and now, I have no doubt you can get a better price by simply walking in.

On with the review of the hotel Pragati Inn:

This hotel is close to the airport and was recommended by a friend. Unfortunately, my room was extremely noisy because of the local road traffic. It is also a bit too far from Old Dhaka if you intend on exploring the most interesting parts of the city.

This is a typical Asian-style budget hotel: a bit dated and could use some maintenance and a coat of paint. Having said that, the room and bathroom were surprisingly clean, and the air-conditioning and hot water were excellent.

A complimentary breakfast was included in the price, but I did not try it.

The wi-fi was so-so, in all three hotels I stayed at.

I thought that the price I paid through Agoda ($45.75 USD) was a bit high for what I got. The owner of the hotel confirmed that if I were to book directly with the hotel, I could get a room for roughly half the price.

I would only return here if I needed to be close to the airport.

Hotel Progati Inn is located very near to DHAKA Airport and DHAKA Cantonment Railway Station. The loaction of the hotel is at a very happening place. Size of the room is perfect with Neat and Clean Washroom. Towels and Bedsheet were very clean as well. They provide Tooth Brush and Tooth Paste as well in the washroom along with soap and shampoo. WIFI SPEED was really very fast. It helped me a lot in my work. Getting Rickshaw, Bus or Motor Bike is all near by. Behaviour of all the staffs including Reception, HouseKeeping, Security guard is really very friendly and cooperative. Breakfast provided by the hotel was really very tasty and infact the food which i ate in my dinner used to be very tasty. The hotel staffs are always ready to help you in every situation. The famous JAMUNA FUTURE PARK mall is just at the mins walking distance from the hotel. After all i really had a wonderful and comfortable stay in this hotel. I will definitely stay in this hotel again. Thanks to the management team of this hotel
