Hostel Zoo in Dhaka is easily one of the best places to stay in Bangladesh. Amin is an incredibly friendly host who makes everyone feel at home. The vibe is amazing, with great people from China, the UK, and Poland. Super social, fun atmosphere—highly recommended for travelers looking to connect.

“Loved the multicultural presence of the hostel”
Turned up late to check in and the guys were still up and eager to show me my bed - true gentleman and certainly make the whole hostel experience very good. Amin is full of smiles and always very willing to assist on any questions I had about exploring the city as a first timer in Bangladesh. Not all hero’s wear capes.

“Good hostel.”
It's a cozy hostel with a nice common area, warm shower, enough space everywhere, a small breakfast included, in a nice neighbourhood more relaxed than Old Dhaka, and reasonably close to the metro into the city centre (walkable, or take a rickshaw). It's also close enough to the airport and railway station (by tuktuk or Uber). It has nice restaurants nearby, coffee places and Western fastfood options if you're into that. It is well worth the price of a bed, and probably the only good option in the country if you are a solo traveler/backpacker and you want to meet other travelers. Armin, who manages the Hostel, is a friendly, easy-going guy, and helpful.

Location of the hostel in the center, This is morestly like a residential apartment, bit crowded and air conditioning only on in certain hours, you don't have many hostel options in Bangladesh
