Return and Refund Policy

Days Hotel Dhaka 69 Suhrawardy Avenue, Baridhara Diplomatic Zone, Dhaka 1212, Bangladesh Effective Date: 1 August 2026 Last Updated: 1 August 2026


1. Overview

Days Hotel Dhaka (“the Hotel”, “we”, “us”) is committed to fair and transparent policies for all our guests. This Return and Refund Policy sets out the conditions under which cancellations are accepted, refunds are processed, and charges apply for no-shows and early departures.

This policy applies to all direct bookings made through:

  • The Hotel website at dayshotelbd.com
  • Direct telephone or email reservations with the Hotel

Important: Bookings made through Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) such as Booking.com, Expedia, or Agoda are subject to the cancellation and refund policy of that platform. Please review the terms applicable to your OTA booking separately. The Hotel cannot override or modify OTA booking policies.


2. Cancellation Policy

2.1 Standard Rate Bookings — Free Cancellation

For bookings made under our Standard (Flexible) Rate, the following cancellation terms apply:

Cancellation Notice GivenCancellation Fee
More than 48 hours before 14:00 on Check-in DateNo charge — full refund
Between 24–48 hours before 14:00 on Check-in Date1 night’s room rate charged
Less than 24 hours before 14:00 on Check-in DateFull booking amount charged
No-show (failure to arrive without notification)Full booking amount charged

Example: If your check-in date is Wednesday at 14:00, a cancellation submitted before 14:00 on Monday incurs no charge. A cancellation submitted on Tuesday incurs a one-night penalty.

2.2 Non-Refundable Rate Bookings

Where a booking has been made under a Non-Refundable Rate (typically offered at a discounted price), the booking is not eligible for cancellation or modification after confirmation. The full booking amount is charged regardless of when the cancellation is made.

Non-refundable bookings are clearly identified at the time of booking. Guests who select a Non-Refundable Rate do so with full knowledge that no refund will be issued under any circumstances, including illness, travel disruption, or change of plans.

2.3 Special Event & Conference Rates

Bookings made in conjunction with a specific event, conference, corporate block booking, or group arrangement may be subject to separate cancellation terms set out in the relevant Group or Events Agreement. Those terms take precedence over this policy where they conflict.


3. How to Cancel a Booking

3.1 Direct Bookings

  • Email: reservation@dayshotelbd.com (recommended — provides written record)
  • Phone: +8801975006314 (Reservations)
  • Phone: +88 02-58810630 (Front Desk)

Cancellations made by telephone must be followed up in writing by email for your records. The Hotel will provide a written cancellation confirmation within 3 business days of receiving a valid cancellation request.

3.2 Cancellation Reference

All cancellations will be assigned a cancellation reference number. Please retain this for your records. No refund can be processed without a valid cancellation reference.

3.3 OTA Bookings

If your booking was made through an OTA, you must cancel through that platform directly. The Hotel cannot cancel or modify OTA bookings on behalf of guests.


4. No-Show Policy

A no-show occurs when a Guest fails to arrive on the confirmed Check-in Date without prior cancellation notice.

In the event of a no-show:

  • The full booking amount for the entire stay will be charged to the payment method provided at the time of booking.
  • The room reservation will be released after 20:00 on the Check-in Date unless the Hotel has been notified of a late arrival.
  • No refund will be issued for no-show bookings.

If you anticipate a late arrival, please notify the Hotel by telephone or email as early as possible. Late arrival notification does not constitute a cancellation and the booking will be held accordingly.


5. Early Departure Policy

If a Guest checks out before the confirmed Check-out Date:

  • A minimum of 48 hours’ advance notice is required to avoid an early departure charge.
  • Without sufficient notice, the Hotel reserves the right to charge the room rate for the remaining nights of the original booking.
  • Early departure fees will be charged to the credit card or payment method on file.
  • Where a guest departs early due to circumstances within the Hotel’s control (e.g. a confirmed room maintenance issue), no early departure charge will apply.
