BSL had been doing hotel business in the name of Ruposhi Bangla Hotel since May, 2011 until it was closed for renovation in September 2014. However, the operation of VIP lounge in Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka, which is being used by the leading airlines as their business and first class passenger lounge, has not been closed and is being run by BSL.

Prior to Ruposhi Bangla Hotel, BSL did the hotel business as Hotel Inter-Continental Dhaka from 1973 to 1983  under an agreement with Inter-Continental Hotels Corporation and as Dhaka Sheraton Hotel from 1984 to April, 2011 under an agreement with Starwood Asia Pacific Hotels and Resorts Pte Ltd.

After renovation, the hotel has been rebranded and inaugurated by the Hon'ble Prime Minister of the Govt. of the People's Republic of Bangladesh on 13 September 2018 in the name of InterContinental Dhaka. The hotel has started its commercial operation from 1st December, 2018.
