I happened to stay in Ocean Pearl for a day in last week of December and my experience was delightful.

Some delightful points:

1) Eventhough the hotel is situated on a busy junction, but rooms were very well insulated, never felt any trafic noise filtering into the room.
2) Hotel Staff was very prompt & helpful in their checkin support & during our stay.
3) Rooms were very clean & well maintained. Beddings and Toiletries were taken care.
4) Hot water was available round the clock.
5) TV channels were somewhat missing, but not a deal breaker, the issue might have been resolved if I would have brought it to notice of relevant authorities.
6) We had Breakfast included in our stay, and it was very good and wholesome. Lot many items including South Indian, North Indian, Continental menu were on offer and taste was delightful.

Some Things that can be improved

1) Parking is less considering the size of hotel, most of the cars are parked within the premise of the hotel, rest have to be parked in basement, which is not that easy considering the overall size. So, one needs to park in sun or park in basement. They do provide free valet service that can assist with parking though.

2) The service at the Hotel left a lot to be desired. Service time as way to high, we got the table well in time, but the service was very slow in both the instances that we dined.

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.

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.

First time visiting India

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.

Highly recommend!

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.

Overrated

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.

Centrally located property, with spacious rooms

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.

best of the worst in mangalore

Ocean pearl is the only decent hotel in mangalore. while the hotel itself is very decent the staff desperately needs training in the front office. if you have a request you need to repeat it 10 times and recheck for their understanding to be sure it will get done. Food is average and very oily. rooms are decent and clean

Nice Hotel, centrally located in the heart of Mang

Reception desk staff average, not too friendly & less accommodating, probably because I was a female travelling solo! I preferred a higher floor room, was given the lowest floor room. Rest of hotel staff , very good & friendly. A gold bracelet left on my bed by oversight was neatly placed on the table by an extremely polite & friendly chamber maid.

The stay was excellent. The ambience in the room and the hygiene level were comparable to the best in the world. The vegetarian restaurant was par excellence - good cuisine and quick service. The coffee shop too was good and offered good service.

Amazing experience!!

Extremely pleasing experience. I travel a lot and I have never experienced the level of warmth and comfort that I experienced at Ocean Pearl. Very importantly, almost the entire staff was very welcoming and made genuine efforts to make me feel comfortable during my stay! All small little requests were attended to promptly with a smile! Highly recommended hotel. Sagar Ratna restaurant is worth a mention here. Pure veg and excellent food here! Travel desk in the main lobby supports the stay very efficiently.
