Lakeshore Hotel Gulshan

Lakeshore Hotel Gulshan is a hotel and serviced-apartment property at House 46, Road 41, Gulshan, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Road 41 in Gulshan-2 is a quiet residential-commercial street in the capital's diplomatic district, and the hotel stands close to Amari Dhaka and The Westin Dhaka, two of the area's larger chain hotels. Embassies, banks, restaurants and Gulshan Lake are all within a short ride, and the Gulshan-2 circle restaurant belt is a short trip away. As with the rest of Gulshan, traffic is heavy at peak hours, and Shahjalal International Airport lies to the north, so transfer times vary. The property has a smaller, more residential character than the neighbouring towers, which makes it appealing to travellers who prefer a quieter setting and a homelike stay. Accommodation includes Deluxe rooms, Executive rooms, suites and serviced apartments, the last of which are suited to longer stays, families and relocating professionals who want more space than a standard hotel room. Amenities include a restaurant, a fitness centre and wifi, and guests can find many more dining options in Gulshan within a short distance. Service is practical and relaxed, with staff used to a mix of business visitors and extended-stay guests. Direct reservation lines are listed by the hotel, and guests are advised to confirm rates and availability by phone or through the hotel website. Rates of roughly BDT 8,000 to 20,000 per night place it in the upscale tier, notably cheaper than the five-star hotels a few doors away. The hotel suits visitors who want to be in the heart of Gulshan at a moderate price, and those planning a stay of a week or more who value apartment-style space. Sightseeing in Old Dhaka requires a long drive across the city.
