The Property — Hotel Super Star
Hotel Super Star is a no-frills 3-star in Dhaka’s busy Motijheel commercial district. Its lobby is small, tiled and functional, with a reception desk that processes keys quickly. The USP is location: it’s a short walk to the main business hub and central markets, which suits budget-conscious travellers who need a clean base for work or sightseeing without any resort pretensions.
Chronicles of Dhaka
Dhaka was founded as Jahangirnagar in the early 17th century under Mughal rule, becoming a major centre of muslin production and trade. The British turned it into the capital of Eastern Bengal and Assam in 1905, leaving behind grand Raj-era buildings such as the High Court and Curzon Hall. After 1947, the city swelled with migrants, and its architecture shifted to pragmatic concrete high-rises and crowded bazaars. Today, Dhaka is one of the world’s densest cities, known for its rickshaw traffic, vibrant street food, and the resilience of its nearly 10 million residents.
Best Time to Visit
Full Dhaka guide →Best months
November to February: cool, dry weather with daytime temps around 20–25°C; fewer rain interruptions and more comfortable for exploring Old Dhaka.
Peak / festival surge
April and May are peak summer months; it’s sweltering (35–40°C) and humid, with April also seeing Bengali New Year (Pahela Baishakh) celebrations. Hotel prices can jump 20–30% in mid-April as local tourists book in for events.
Budget shoulder season
March and October: March starts heating up but remains dry; October sees the monsoon tail off with still-green surroundings. Discounts of 10–15% are common, and crowds are thinner.
Weather & packing
Dhaka’s monsoon (June–October) can drop 300mm in a single day; flooding occurs quickly. Pack a waterproof jacket and at least one pair of sandals that can handle wet streets.
Live City Briefing — Dhaka
- The Dhaka Metro's MRT Line 6 now runs daily from Uttara to Motijheel, cutting cross-city travel time drastically; check for disruptions at Shahbagh station due to ongoing extension work.
- A new flyover is being built near the Jamuna Future Park area, causing temporary lane closures on the Airport Road; allow extra 30 minutes for airport transfers.
- Several street food stalls in Old Dhaka (near Shakhari Bazar) reopened after a renovation drive; try the 'fuchka' but avoid any uncut fruit due to water quality concerns.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Super Star, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above 5th floor) to minimize street noise from the busy streets of Dhaka. The hotel's 5th floor and above are likely to be quieter due to the distance from the ground-level traffic and noise pollution. Additionally, these rooms may have a better chance of having a working elevator, considering the hotel's 5-floor layout.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms closest to the service entrance (likely on lower floors) as these may experience noise from staff and delivery vehicles. Also, rooms on the lower floors (1st to 3rd floor) may be noisier due to the proximity to the street and potential traffic congestion.
Best views
