The staff throughout the property was very friendly. The room was clean and beds were comfortable. Overall a good place to stay.
Best location. Great staff and services. Fast in room dining. Great buffet with local and international breakfast items galore. Enjoyed hot parathas and chana aloo with great tasting chai n lassi. Building is old and needs a reno. Some of the female front desk staff is very green and needs training in professionalism and competency. Loved complimentary airport personalized pick up and drop off. Everybody was taking Covid precautions seriously. Great stay overall.
I typically stay in Marriott properties (100 nights a year!) but in Pakistan stayed in a non-western hotel, Pearl Continental, for safety reasons. STOLEN JEWELRY: Most upsetting was that a gold necklace which was sealed in a small black jewelry bag and then in a zipped pocket in my suitcase was stolen. The necklace was fake so it the $ loss isn't big but I definitely won't stay there again. To be fair I did not report it stolen so can not attest to how the hotel would have handled. FOOD: was pretty good in the main buffet restaurant SERVICE: overall staff were friendly. Restaurant service was good. But upon check out there were 4 people behind the counter but only 1 person could handle checkout despite the long line. The other 3 people weren't helping anyone. I was told that the other checkout people didn't show up for work. STAR RATING: I'm not sure how the star rating works - maybe it's relative ratings? But this hotel hasn't been updated in 40+ years. And the service level was nothing close to 5 star from a western hotel chain.
PC is a good and reliable hotel option in Karachi. the other is the Movenpick across the street. both have attentive staffs. the rooms and level of service are very good and comparable at both. The Movenpcik has the better breakfast and the ciger bar with alcohol. Lobby is larger at Movenpick. The PC has the better dining and restaurant choices. The bed at PC is more comfortable and the decor is more updated and newer.
