The Ambrosia offers a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle of Dhaka. Just off a busy main street (they are all busy) and not far from Shabagh Square, the guest house is meticulously kept by a team of extremely friendly staff who go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. This is not a Western run chain,... More

I stayed at the Ambrosia 10 years ago and have happy memories. Booked in again this time I was looking forward - arriving it was much grander than I recalled and the lovely garden looked exactly the same. BUT i was then told that I wasnt in the Ambrosia but in the Ambrosia extention - really shouldnt be called the... More

Stayed at this property twice, though the guest house is small but neat, clean and tidy rooms are maintained. They do not have restaurant but they have a kitchen and they prepare food according to your liking. Food was pretty okay, infact I tried only local cuisine. Staff and management are friendly and nice. Overall comfortable stay. I happen to... More

Twice I have booked a room here. Twice they have shunted me (for a day) to another facility. Two years back it was a flat in the neighbourhood. This time it was the Ambala Inn (see review) a little distance away. My colleague who is staying there doesn't have a very flattering review. The comments by other reviewers hold good... More

We were served a basic breakfast in the morning,the staff was courteous to keep the breakfast ready at 6:00 Hrs , on the day we left... More

It's my first time at Ambrosia and I will come back my next visit. It's a quite place, it has a lovely garden (really reliving in the busy and dusty Dhaka). Room was ok; unfortunately I was given a room on the ground floor, and the window looks out to a corridor. There are better options available. Personnel is very... More

I have actually stayed at Ambrosia twice, both during the very busy week of the biannual Chobi Mela Festival of Asian Photography in 2004 and 2009 (ignore the forced date above). The owner, Jahangir Alam, is wonderful. The garden inside the gate is well-tended. The rooms are part of an expanded, converted house, and some are a bit noisier than... More

Ambrosia is a quaint little guest house in the Dhanmondi district of Dhaka which is a fairly upmarket area not too far from the Kawran Bazaar. Its almost too easy to miss this gem as it has high walls and there's no apparent signage. The gate is opened by a guard and once inside the gate the guesthouse comes on... More
