We stayed here from the 25-27 Oct and will say will book again if we do come to MAngalore. The breakfast at Jazz was amazing and the location was perfect for us. Close to the City Centre Mall and a minute away from one of the busiest restaurants we have visited called Machli( fish… yes fresh seafood). The managers made our stay very comfortable always asking if we needed anything. We did visit the Spa my wife loved the mani/pedi.

1. Pleasant stay 2. WiFi was pretty bad and kept disconnecting. Help was available immediately. 3. House help damaged the glass and it seemed to have been blamed on us 4. Overall good experience and courteous staff

My only complaint was the air cons, during my last visit the aircon in the room was not functioning, during my recent visit I faced the same problem, very disappointing.

The staff provided a very warm greeting on arrival, and check-in was very efficient. I was surprised at the large size of the room, and had a lovely view out to the sea in the distance. The restaurants were excellent too. Arriving on a Sunday at lunchtime meant that the restaurant was full, but they were happy to serve me in the Jazz Bar next door to the restaurant. Overall, I had a very comfortable stay and will definitley return.

Property is located in heart of the city. Good proximity to shops etc Staff generally pleasant helpful but don’t think about going the extra step about making guests their priority

Visited India for a wedding. What a great experience. Hotel was exceptionally good as I expected less but got more. Rooms were very clean. Bed was a bit on the hard side. Room 608 did not have a good view as it overlooked a big Pylon, so curtains were never opened. Breakfast was good for the first few mornings, but it was the same things every morning, became repetertive. Hotel staff were very pleasant. Restaurants were good, got really busy at times as it catered for both hotel guests and outside customers. Room service is available, and a mini bar is supplied in the rooms. Plenty of complimentary bottled water is also supplied in the rooms. Hotel has a taxi service, but Tuk Tuk are cheaper. Thomas cook currency exchange is across the road, if you can get across the road safely. Location of hotel is in a very busy part of Mangalore. chocolate mouse cake is to die for.

I had booked at The Ocean Pearl as my father was in a wheelchair and wanted to have good services and a shower that allowed him to walk into rather than a bathtub. I initially picked this hotel as it was supposedly one of the best in Mangalore, and it did not disappoint. The staff were very friendly and always willing to assist. The room was very clean and modern (probably with way too many light switches). The housekeeping staff were excellent and always attended to anything we needed. The breakfast was ridiculously good. I think I gained 2-3 kg from that breakfast everyday alone (because I was overeating). I felt the travel desk was lacking a bit. Any taxi we inquired about was much higher than the going rate and except for booking one to go to a wedding, we generally avoided booking through the hotel. The hotel was lively every night with events and functions - it is the premier place for locals to have various celebrations. The restaurant on the 1st floor was very very good as well and worth checking out for at least one dinner. Overall, it was a very good stay and I highly recommend it to anyone with the caveat that this is Mangalore so don’t expect something like the Shangri-La hotel.

I arrived there around 2pm and the room was not ready when I got there. I requested at the time of my reservation a king bed in a non smoking room. I got 2 twin beds in smoking room. The room they finally gave us was clearly a smoking room. They eventually upgraded us but after a long, frustrating day of travel, waiting more than 30 minutes for the right room was the cherry on top of a frustrating day.

Clean room. Helpful staff. Breakfast menu needs to improve. Minimalist spread.

The hotel is very plush and beautifully maintained. The food is excellent. However the front office people should be trained to handle guests. They came across as very rude and nonchalant.

Ocean Pearl even though an old property has been very well maintained, the size of the room and bed is very large with good storage space. Eating joints around like Machali are a good find, the hotel itself has beautiful restaurants with very good range of cuisines. Definitely a place to stay when you are in Mangalore. The hospitality is great.
