Image: A 2,400sq ft spa will be among the hotel facilitiesLe Méridien, the hotel chain bought by Starwood Hotels and Resorts in 2005, is to make its first move into Bangladesh next July with the opening of a new property in Dhaka.
The 304-bedroom Le Méridien Dhaka is owned by Best Holdings Limited and forms part of the group's expansion in South Asia, as well as extending Starwood's presence in Bangladesh.
Facilities at the new hotel will include a 2,400sq ft (223sq m) spa and a 2,800sq ft (260sq m) fitness centre - however, further details have yet to be confirmed.
The hotel will be located between the eighth and 15th floors of a mixed-use development, with the building designed to incorporate a 125ft (38m) outer façade.
Best Holdings Limited chair and managing director Amin Ahmad said: "We are thrilled to partner with Starwood Hotels to bring Le Méridien to Dhaka.
"We aim to create a chic and stylish property that will deliver the true experience of Le Méridien, while adding new life into this bustling city."
