자베르 펄 콘티넨털 과다르

Was a great hotel, and I'm glad we had the option of staying at such a luxurious hotel on Gwadar!

The biggest issue with this hotel was the difficulty in reaching it from the town with layers of security check points all of whom seemed suspicious of a (non-Chinese) foreigner. The hotel is on a hill past the new, mostly Chinese built port which may explain the strong security presence. The place where the hotel is sited gives lovely views all round of the ocean and the city so it is worth persevering and getting up to the front door. This is a standard 4 star hotel but more appreciated for being the first I had stayed in after a number of days in lesser places, some much lesser places, in Karachi and other parts of Balochistan. Reception was efficient with reasonable English spoken. My room was on the city side and quite spacious with a huge bed, a couple of armchairs and a desk. The bed was comfortable and had lovely feather pillows. The bathroom was big enough but lacked hot water. I didn’t bother to complain because it was too much trouble to get dressed again and go downstairs but it was a disappointment. Otherwise, everything was good including excellent wifi. I had dinner and breakfast in the hotel restaurant which had lovely, helpful staff and pretty good food with lots of choices. I was happy with my stay at the Pearl Continental even with the multiple security stops and the lack of hot water.
