Bad experience
Pros:

My friend and I stayed at Pearl Courtyard for 4 days. 18th till 22nd Mac 2026. We booked double deluxe with city facing view via booking.com.
The only good thing about this hotel is its location.

Cons:

My friend and I stayed at Pearl Courtyard for 4 days. 18th till 22nd Mac 2026. We booked double deluxe with city facing view via booking.com. Even though it was stated that we only pay at the hotel but 3 days before arrival they already called and asked us to pay 50% of the total amount which was INR 41,120. Average INR10,000+ per night. Later, we found it was really costly for the kind of room and the facilities that we got.
The manager also claimed that if we don't pay the 50% deposit, we might not get the room on our arrival date.

The worst part was, when we arrived at the hotel, we were given a room without window. Only 1 set of toiletries was given. No hair dryer, no fridge, the bedsheet smells bad, got cigarette smell. It was as though the room was not cleaned after check-out.

I showed the management my printed copy of the kind of room that I should get for the price we paid, they claimed all the rooms are fully booked.

The next day, they shifted us to another room which looked a bit better yet no hair dryer and fridge. The staff said, I have to request for hair dryer. So, on the second night after prayers and Gangga arti, we went back to the room around 10p.m. We washed our hair and requested for a hair dryer.
The moment my friend inserted the plug, there was a loud noise and the whole room blackout. Then we called the the receptionist. It took about 1/2 hour before an electrician came to check. The whole night they were trying to fix the problem, we couldn't sleep because the lights turn on for a while then goes off, sometimes it started flickering. We were so fed-up and only slept around 4 a.m. The management didn't apologise or said sorry to us for all the difficulties that we faced.
I WOULDN'T recommend this hotel to anyone. My other friends stayed at Broadway hotel, paid only INR4,000 per night but they had better facilities.

Pros:

The best part of the Hotel is it's location. The facilities are good, overall a 7 / 10 rating from me. (not value for money - charges are more for location than anything else - facilities and provisions are okay)

Cons:

Most of the rooms (at least in which I was staying) Have no natural ventilation (no window) and AC provisions are old (not sure of fresh air inflow) . The toilet are extremely compromised (the shower area smallest dimension was 600mm / 2 feet) no dry / wet segregation, no wash basin (lavatory) counter

Passable
Pros:

Rooms are spacious enough. Hotel location is in center of the temple area.

Cons:

Room price is very costly . 30,000 INR for Junior suite is beyond imagination. Which surpasses even 4 star hotel rent.

Would not recommend this place.
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The rooms had insects on the bed. The kettle was overheating and the ac was not working. When asked about both, the staff just informed that’s how they work. Room has a very musky smell. Was asked to make full payment on the on or before check in. Does not meet any expectations of the 4 star hotel it claims
To be or the price charged. The noise of the streets were heard in the room though the room was on the 4th floor.

Poor
Pros:

Location is outstanding - about a 10-minute walk to the ghats. Beakfast was fine. Service was ok.

Cons:

For the price (almost $200/night), and the hotel's self-proclaimed 4-star rating, the room was atrocious. It was extremely worn, not maintained and one corner smelled of urine. I would not recommend staying here for this price.

pleasant staff, good location cleaner and better restaurant should solve the overall experience
Pros:

location was good as the property is placed in the centre of the city, however the cleanliness in the restaurant is not upto the mark and food was partially available with delayed service

Cons:

Bin was kept in the entrance for the food disposal which was too clumsy and uncomforatble at site for a clean ambience required inside restaurant
