La propiedad — Hotel Diana
This is a no-nonsense 3-star place on Comilla's main drag, Kandirpar Road. The lobby feels like a clean, functional transit space — tiled floors, a reception desk with a bowl of local sweets, and a steady stream of business travellers and pilgrims. Its USP is location: a five-minute walk from the Dhaka-Chittagong highway bus stop and close to the main market. It suits the budget-conscious traveller who wants a reliable base to explore the city's medieval mosques and temples.
Crónicas de Comilla
Comilla, once the capital of the ancient Samatata kingdom, became a key Mughal administrative centre in the 17th century. The British built the city's railway network in the 1890s, turning it into a trading hub for jute and tea. Today, it's best known for the 18th-century Shalban Vihara Buddhist monastery and the nearby Mainamati ruins, which draw history buffs. Culturally, it's a quiet, conservative city with a strong tradition of folk music and a lively street-food scene around the Dharmasagar pond.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Diana, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request rooms on the upper floors of the rear wing, facing away from the main road. These are typically quieter and offer a bit more daylight than street-facing rooms on lower levels.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of rooms directly above the entrance or the staircase on the ground and first floors—these catch street noise and footfall from the lobby. Also avoid rooms near the lift shaft on floors 2-3, as the lift motor can hum through the wall.
Best views
Rear-facing rooms on floors 5-6 offer a view over the low-rise city rooftops and a slice of the distant hills on clear days. Street-facing rooms just see traffic and shopfronts.
Quietest floors
Floors 4 to 6 (top floor) are generally the most peaceful, especially those at the back. The lift usage drops off significantly above floor 3.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel sits on a busy thoroughfare in Comilla, so motorbikes and CNG auto-rickshaws start up from about 6am and continue until late evening. The lift is old and clunks audibly on approach, especially on floors 2 and 3.
Insider tips
If you drive, ask for a spot in the small rear parking area rather than the front kerb—it’s safer and quieter. Check-in can be slow at peak times, so pre-arrange a late arrival and ask for a room that’s been aired out, as the building can feel stuffy in humid months.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
