Room not very clean, found some cockroach inside toilet & room. No LCD TV and movie channels very few. OK for a short stay if spending your most of the... More

The Pearl City Hotel is the perfect base from which a Sri Lanka newbie can explore Colombo. We paid £87.80 through Agoda,com for 2 nights room only in a "deluxe" room. Our 7th floor room was very clean, with a spotless bathroom and comfy big beds, even if the decor and fittings were dated (think late-80s business motel). However, we... More

We had two rooms in the new part of the hotel, completed in late 2012. The rooms were a good size, well equipped and clean. Service was outstanding. It was obvious the owners and staff were very proud of this new building. The buffet breakfast rivaled that of a 5 star hotel we stayed in in KL. The location is... More

We were upgraded to the new annex Pearl Grand. The room had all amenities and was very comfortable. A pool on the roof was not crowded. Being away from the busy older city was relaxing. There were good restaurants nearby and it was an easy tuk-tuk ride to the Old Fort Area.

This hotel has 2 sections -Pearl City and Pearl Grand. We got a room in the latter which was very comfortable and quiet. I would say good 3 star standard. Hotel is located about 3km from all the tourist action but value offered makes the distance acceptable
