The room is not small, the facilities are OK, the service is very good, reaching the level of a four-star hotel, especially the service, but it is difficult to travel around, the traffic is serious, it belongs to the old city, and there is a fee for airport pick-up and drop-off, 15 US dollars, taking an Uber is only one-third of the price

This hotel is very good, the price is not high, the breakfast is very good, the location is also very good, and it is very quiet at night. I booked a hotel in Uttara and I couldn't sleep at night, so I moved here temporarily. It's great. Yes, the only bad thing is that my room has no window.

I didn't stay at the Mango Hotel in Dhaka before because I accidentally lost my passport and I felt so miserable in this place where I had no relatives! Later, my friend introduced me to the Mango Hotel and said that he would help us Chinese people. I found the Mango Hotel with a nervous heart. The owner was really good. I picked up the phone and called the embassy and sent someone to take me to complete the procedures. Because I had to wait for a few working days to get the documents, I stayed in the hotel. To be honest, the cleanliness of the hotel was my first impression. The second was that all the meals were authentic Chinese food. The third was that all the staff were warm and the service attitude was super good. It made me feel like home. I want to express a lot, and I am not dragging my feet. If you plan to come to Dhaka, Bangladesh for inspection, you must choose the Dhaka Mango Hotel. The owner has been here for more than 20 years and knows all walks of life. He will not let you get lost. You will not regret choosing the Dhaka Mango Hotel, which will save you detours. It is worth recommending! Thanks to everyone at the Dhaka Mango Hotel.
