For the vast majority of travelers, Osmani International Airport (ZYL) is the only logical gateway, as it is the sole airport located within the city of Sylhet itself. All other listed options, including Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC), Lokpriya Gopinath Bardoloi International Airport (GAU), Lengpui Airport (AJL), and Shillong Airport (SHL), are situated in neighboring cities and require extensive overland travel and international border crossings. Choosing any of these remote airports should be reserved for travelers who have specific business in those regions or who are forced to by unique flight availability constraints. Travelers arriving at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC) must contend with a lengthy train or bus journey from the capital, while those choosing Indian airports like Lokpriya Gopinath Bardoloi International Airport (GAU), Lengpui Airport (AJL), or Shillong Airport (SHL) face significant logistical hurdles involving customs and immigration. Always prioritize direct connections to Osmani International Airport (ZYL) to avoid the time and expense associated with multi-modal ground transportation between different regional hubs.

Sylhet Sadar Upazila|5.04km from city center
Overall, it's a decent hotel with an excellent location right next to the airport.
However, it definitely doesn't live up to the 5/4-star rating in the usual global understanding. The prices for additional services at the hotel are inexplicably exorbitant.
At the restaurant:
Breakfast was okay.
The first time I ordered curry for lunch, I specifically asked for it to be mild – they brought a very spicy one and then stood there watching my reaction. When I complained, they brought another equally spicy curry as an apology. I gathered that the food isn't cooked to order but served from what's left over from the buffet dinner, so no modifications are possible.
Juice and coffee by the pool were incredibly expensive by Bangladesh standards.
I didn't go to the spa, but the prices there were like in New York. Why this would be the case when we're in Bangladesh is also unclear.
But the staff was friendly, and they arranged airport transfer for us upon checkout.FromUS$47

It’s a nice nifty hotel. Pretty well kept and a decent location, quiet area, while being in the heart of the town.
Overall a really solid selection. However, really couldn’t differentiate between between a “honeymoon” suit vs regular in terms of how rooms are setup or special amenities being offered.FromUS$21

Extremely mediocre breakfast. Staff begrudgingly provide you with service whenever you need anything. Located in the central city, it is conveniently situated. However, do not recommend this hotel if you are a cleaning freak like me.0 Reviews
