People in comment section showing selective dumbness 1. Clearly He praised Avari in last video so it's nothing that he is against Pakistan 2. He clearly liked the 108 Hotel in Islamabad and he rated it as one of his best he stayed at 3. Leaving the Sink aside still the Chicken kadai ,the Menu pamplet , Mold at places other than sink,The stupid double checkin in same room , serving non spicy without consulting, no complementary snacks and bar, is completely off a 5 star standard in its own .
The black thing in sink was adhesive, I have worked in the industry, that is definitely not mold and adhesive to fix the sink. It’s just that they used the cheaper black one instead of the white one used for fixing heavy and white stones.
I suppose that’s possible, but it seems strange they didn’t use it in other places like the shower. And it was streaky, which looks like mold. Hard to know without more checking though
Thank you for your video Chris, I am a Pakistani born Californian and just recently traveled to Pakistan after 30 years. I agree that level of hygiene and cleaning is not that great compared to most other countries, and it's a huge disappointment. Hope these big hotels take these videos as an opportunity to improve and do better. Please continue to make honest videos. People deserve to know.
Guys, I get it he was complaining a bit but..... He was stating facts about things like the sofa having stains if he is paying so much he expects it to be clean... In other 5 star hotels they can do the least of just cleaning the room properly I think the thing ubder the sink was the material not mold but I feel like his complaints were valid.. Sure he was looking very closely but he did that because he wanted to see how the best 5 star hotel in pak is. When he came to India he also checked everything in the 5 star hotels the furniture everything and he didn't find anything. He was expecting it to be at its best condition.
Now it is apparent why Max got rid of this guy and went solo and became successful. This guy is irritating as hell and looks abnormal. I am unsubscribing.
@@SaimaIqbal-ib6qb i used to watch him before also bt lost all respect. hes making these vids to have views. he only exposes pak on purpose. im unsubscribing also.
Lol He wanted more and more Indian views and all. If this was the issue, he could highlight the name of hotel in thumbnail instead of pakistani flag and thi title. Title seems if he was there to expose it even before coming.
9:22 Room itself wasn't terrible Like, he is there to nitpick only haha If it was good say it good. If you can openly say bad to bad things then say it openely what you liked
That’s possible I suppose, it sure looked like mold to me considering the streaks. but I suppose it’s impossible to be sure from just looking. i find it strange they wouldn’t use a white colored one in a 5 star hotel though.
@But what’s even more strange is why you would not bring all of these issues to the managers attention. It would make for a much better video with the hotel staff having to explain the mess.
You are spot on!! Cleanliness is imperative..I reckon the street food is indeed better ..Pull up your socks!! I've loved your vlogs.. You've hit the nail on the head by being brutally honest.. You should have pulled up the Manager and pointed it out...

You wouldnt notice these small things when u enter in the room. And its too much of a hassle to change rooms after you settle in especially if the next room will probably be the same
Hey chris ,Happy New year and welcome back.Oh boy too much of cholestrol on your plate bad for your health.Overall I really enjoyed the vlog thank you.
Bro.. with all due respect to you, the shit you're complaining about is quite NORMAL here in North America - Even our 5 star luxury hotels such as Fairmont have tons of issues.. My last trip to Hawaii, I stayed at Andaz Maui, $900 USD /night my ex wife and I paid.. we had similar stains on the furniture, we had mouldy caulking inside the washrooms.. We stayed at Conrad Singapore, similar issues.. it's not only Pakistani hotels, these are hotel issues generally around the world.. We booked Sheraton at Niagara Falls for new years before covid started, the fucking bed had NO frame on my side... and the mattress kept sinking in.. they had to come in and actually change the entire bed as it was broken.
Thank you for the video Chris, the people deserve to know EXACTLY what they’re going to get when they book for an UPSCALE experience. You can’t rely on the outdated reviews and cheap adverts.
He should have at least wiped it with a tissue or something to prove his point instead of assuming! Assumptions are not good. Also, look at the thumbnail! It’s clickbait! He’s intentionally trying to create outrage for more views because he doesn’t make many videos like before! That’s shameful Chris! Don’t stoop so low and don’t be a prick by doing this! Are you trying to garner sympathy for more views from India? Shameless! Bay Sharam!
I totally agree that Avari Hotels are better than soo called best hotels PC & Serena. There were certain things which you could have done to make your visit better at Pearl Continental like ask for a newer room after complaining to the management and to redo the chicken karahi with spice after it came to you. Overall great content, loving your street interaction with the locals.
however that sink have a chemical names Black Polyurethane Waterproofing Compound. but if they are charging 150$ per night that's shouldn't look like this that you don't even want to wash your hands.
That’s possible I suppose, it sure looked like mold to me considering the streaks. but I suppose it’s impossible to be sure from just looking. i find it strange they wouldn’t use a white colored one in a 5 star hotel though.
I think you should take some water from the shitter and wash your eyes to see if its mould or some sort of waterproofing silicone at 8:43. I have seen worse 5 star hotels in Europe and America.
That’s possible I suppose, it sure looked like mold to me considering the streaks. but I suppose it’s impossible to be sure from just looking. i find it strange they wouldn’t use a white colored one in a 5 star hotel though.
I don't think these are that bad things to call the worst experience. It's easy to label something as 'worst' just by seeing a few stains on a carpet or small issues like these. In my opinion, these are minor inconveniences that can be overlooked. There are definitely worse things that can happen during a hotel stay, but this doesn't seem to be one of them.
In all my travels, including in Pakistan, I always insist on seeing the room before checking into a hotel. That’s why 99% of the time, I avoid situations where I’d need to make a video like this-I’d never end up paying $150 for a "grand" hotel that looks like that. From my experience in Pakistan (as you may have seen in my vlogs), I’ve found that less well-known hotels often have much cleaner rooms and better service.
Bro. Apart from the hotel cleanliness which btw is not much grosser than north american hotels which I have seen, wud u get such hospitality in US? Do people stop and even try n help in NY? Thats what u get in our countries and thats y u visit us.
As in the video, I commented on three aspects, service, value of the room, and food. The service was great, but at the end of the day I’m paying for a clean room as well.
It wasn't really that bad. The blood/oil stains should be cleaned, but I've seen that before in NA. You're in a 3rd world country with cheap labour. I think you have to live with things like this and just ask to switch your room. It's still a bad experience and hope he has better ones in the future.
Heyy for some of your stays can you try air bnb for any trip in pk or anywhere.. i think its just so much more interesting you get to learn about the culture aesthetics and the actual homes of the country- just a suggestion 🥺
@chrislewis also its much cheaper you can get whole houses for a night in the same price as a night in pearl continental or anything- thats lahori hack for things specially big- mid cities
Always appreciated your videos and your efforts to learn and adapt are always commendable. But this one was an odd ball, I know they are 3 stars at best, but still you being so nit-picky made the video cringe and repulsive.
They can put cover on sofa with footstool and change it for every guest. Table they should clean for every guest and Menu they should do plastic coating so it can also be cleaned with wet clothes when you are cleaning the room. They can use a spray for carpets that will bring the stains to very light or clean them off completely. There are so many chemicals available which can help in getting rid of mold.
Chris is a good kind hearted person and Pakistan loves you, and you are just honest about your experience and by the way you are here in Pakistan because you are a kind hearted person and have shown the entire world so many good part of Pakistan that no western media will ever show, and this Hotel should not have the title Pakistan best hotel hopefully you find another hotel that will give you better experience
Hey Chris, you have highlighted the biggest issue in Pakistani Tourism industry, the lack of proper hospitality structure; these people are just minting money, well most of them; there are a few small chains of hotels in Pakistan which are doing way better then the Big names........ i have stayed in most of the biggest and a few small chains of hotels throughout Pakistan, and found them to be expensive and lacking in many aspects, especially hygeine and food! Workers are generally nice. Pakistani big hotels charge anywhere from 100 to 200$ a night for a small deluxe room. While i have stayed in many other 4 and 5 hotels overseas, which were way cheaper then Pakistan and had excellent service........ i once stayed in a 2 star Best western hotel in Chicago! There room and services were way better then any 5 star Pakistani hotel, although they had only 2 people working front desk. And it was during COVID. SO.......... I myself am disapointed with the Pakistani hotel scene....... by the way i take my own bed sheets whenever inhave to stay at any Pakistani hotel!!! Just so you know!
Cris, at this point it seems like you're overdoing it on purpose for views. Nothing is flawless if you scrutinize it under a microscope. Top hotels in Dubai and London have pathetic taste if we order it from room service as well. The black material under the sink is just waterproofing and it's used worldwide for putting that in place, completely normal I have seen it everywhere. Honestly, who even cares about the color of the basin beneath the sink? And pushing the lamp just to check if it wobbles? That was over the top and unnecessary. Moreover, Chicken Karahi tends to have a milder, less spicy flavor in upscale hotels. Since you were a foreigner, they likely served you an even less spicy version. And yes, we do use a lot of oil in our dishes-it’s part of our cooking style. Street food, of course, has its own distinct flavor and is bound to taste different. Brother, please don’t take this the wrong way, but you’ve received immense love and respect from Pakistanis. I understand that negativity on thumbnails and titles grabs more attention, but remember, it takes years to build a reputation and only moments to ruin it. I hope you’ll steer clear of unnecessary criticism and be careful in the future.
To be fair, you can call out those hotels anywhere and I’m not gonna get defensive. A dirty place is a dirty place, period. Reviews like these help people to make informed decisions when they travel. I’m not looking for controversy, i’m simply being honest, just as I’m honest when i review the food, and interact with people. If anything, this should only strengthen my credibility cause I tell it how it id.
He should have at least wiped it with a tissue or something to prove his point instead of assuming! Assumptions are not good. Also, look at the thumbnail! It’s clickbait! He’s intentionally trying to create outrage for more views because he doesn’t make many videos like before! That’s shameful Chris! Don’t stoop so low and don’t be a prick by doing this! Are you trying to garner sympathy for more views from India? Shameless! Bay Sharam!
I don’t think he’s overdoing it for views! The blood stains on the carpet weren’t planted. Would you stay in a place that had that? Specially if you paid what is considered a premium price in that country ?

He spent long time in india and i think i can see the investment each foreigner is coming and showing his love and praising food taste and he has some serious issue bro 🤣 like what ! you are not in your home man you are not in a resort, you will get what they are delivering if you want to see a true five star go to Nishat hotel lahore and see the stuff but plz check wallet first ! why you expecting such shitty things and for sure this is out of my mind man 🙌 fpr beach go to the Golden beach Gawadar
8:30 That's not mold that's a chemical solution used to stick and prevent leakage, its transparent or white but they have used a black one thats a mistake
Chris First of all I am Sorry for your bad experience at one of Karachi’s Finest Hotel’s,and thanks for exposing them. But I’d like to add and suggest that if this happens next time you can always ask them to accommodate you to a Better Room and Ask for a Floor Manager to see into the stuff that you dislike and found yourself uncomfortable with in the Old Room, Because then they will make sure to give you a room not Frequently used and Very Well Maintained,especially the time in the vid and during your stay when you had to recheck for the next day,it would’ve been better for you to let them know about your stay so far and a better accommodation since you aphid already suffered one night. P.S PC Hotel isn’t much known for their Gravy’s and I get the concept of you ordering it for Comparison but PC Excels at Biryani,next time try that,Their Biryani is actually one of K Town’s Finest.
it sure looked like mold to me considering the streaks. but I suppose it’s impossible to be sure from just looking. i find it strange they wouldn’t use a white colored sealant in a 5 star hotel though.
@ give them the benefit of the doubt for this thing otherwise, improvements are needed as it is a 5-star hotel, but don’t you think you did a bit of exaggeration as well? 😂 ps. not a hater
As a Pakistani I'm really disappointed to see this, but it's the harsh reality! These so-called top notch hotels must improve the standards, they were good in the beginning but now it's all shit, such a disgrace to international tourism finally coming back to Pakistan.
hey chris thanks for review of different hotels in pakistan and i know that they are worse than the indian hotels as india hotels really take care of their guests
As a Pakistani i would say, The hotel owner must watch this video. May be he, the owner don, know how to actually run a business. Worst hotel. Chargin pkr 45000.
You should stay in Murree at some hotel as well. Maybe start a series of Hotel Reviews. Good watch... Keep it up bro! Love your videos... Can start Buffett Reviews in Pakistan as well... Eat and Critic....!
Next time bring a microscope and see the germs 😂. C'mon man ! Where are you from? I have been to many hotels in Europe and minor stains and a bit mould is normal. Btw the one you showed under the sink is NOT mould. Out of your mind or are you catering to the Indian audience. After enjoying all the free service from the good people in the country give something back man. Anyways you're making money from these TH-cam videos.
If America saw how much oil was in that karahi, they would have invaded Pakistan.

Hey Chris, you have highlighted the biggest issue in Pakistani Tourism industry, the lack of proper hospitality structure; these people are just minting money, well most of them; there are a few small chains of hotels in Pakistan which are doing way better then the Big names........ i have stayed in most of the biggest and a few small chains of hotels throughout Pakistan, and found them to be expensive and lacking in many aspects, especially hygeine and food! Workers are generally nice. Pakistani big hotels charge anywhere from 100 to 200$ a night for a small deluxe room. While i have stayed in many other 4 and 5 hotels overseas, which were way cheaper then Pakistan and had excellent service........ i once stayed in a 2 star Best western hotel in Chicago! There room and services were way better then any 5 star Pakistani hotel, although they had only 2 people working front desk. And it was during COVID. SO.......... I myself am disapointed with the Pakistani hotel scene....... by the way i take my own bed sheets whenever inhave to stay at any Pakistani hotel!!! Just so you know!
Dude, your channel is so interesting. Can you please make more videos about hotels in New Delhi??
This hotel room is worse than a 800 Rupees Hotel Room in India.
I am a subscriber of u Chris!!!
Cris, at this point it seems like you're overdoing it on purpose for views. Nothing is flawless if you scrutinize it under a microscope. Top hotels in Dubai and London have pathetic taste if we order it from room service as well. The black material under the sink is just waterproofing and it's used worldwide for putting that in place, completely normal I have seen it everywhere. Honestly, who even cares about the color of the basin beneath the sink? And pushing the lamp just to check if it wobbles? That was over the top and unnecessary. Moreover, Chicken Karahi tends to have a milder, less spicy flavor in upscale hotels. Since you were a foreigner, they likely served you an even less spicy version. And yes, we do use a lot of oil in our dishes-it’s part of our cooking style. Street food, of course, has its own distinct flavor and is bound to taste different. Brother, please don’t take this the wrong way, but you’ve received immense love and respect from Pakistanis. I understand that negativity on thumbnails and titles grabs more attention, but remember, it takes years to build a reputation and only moments to ruin it. I hope you’ll steer clear of unnecessary criticism and be careful in the future.
To be fair, you can call out those hotels anywhere and I’m not gonna get defensive. A dirty place is a dirty place, period. Reviews like these help people to make informed decisions when they travel. I’m not looking for controversy, i’m simply being honest, just as I’m honest when i review the food, and interact with people. If anything, this should only strengthen my credibility cause I tell it how it id.
He should have at least wiped it with a tissue or something to prove his point instead of assuming! Assumptions are not good.
Also, look at the thumbnail! It’s clickbait! He’s intentionally trying to create outrage for more views because he doesn’t make many videos like before! That’s shameful Chris! Don’t stoop so low and don’t be a prick by doing this! Are you trying to garner sympathy for more views from India? Shameless! Bay Sharam!
exactly.... i mean gravey to oil ratio?? rofl
I don’t think he’s overdoing it for views! The blood stains on the carpet weren’t planted. Would you stay in a place that had that? Specially if you paid what is considered a premium price in that country ?
What did the hotel staff say when you complained to them about their poor hygiene and crappy food?
7:02 be careful there 💀
@@techtalk4557 in endiya saar there is Supa pawar in 2030 saar💀💀💀🤡🤡🤡saar we endiya good people very clean saar
Bro please go to Saudi Arabia
this is like cement not mold, which use for adhesive the washbasin. Don't damage anyone image without verification.

They should have used the color white, not black.
He spent long time in india and i think i can see the investment each foreigner is coming and showing his love and praising food taste and he has some serious issue bro 🤣 like what ! you are not in your home man you are not in a resort, you will get what they are delivering if you want to see a true five star go to Nishat hotel lahore and see the stuff but plz check wallet first ! why you expecting such shitty things and for sure this is out of my mind man 🙌 fpr beach go to the Golden beach Gawadar
Now...to Chris..what haunts u the most in ur life
Chris : the mold in the pc continental sink
8:30 That's not mold that's a chemical solution used to stick and prevent leakage, its transparent or white but they have used a black one thats a mistake
So what's your beef with pakistan???? The Plaza in nyc has such dirty rooms, don't know your beef with Pakistan
Chris First of all I am Sorry for your bad experience at one of Karachi’s Finest Hotel’s,and thanks for exposing them.
But I’d like to add and suggest that if this happens next time you can always ask them to accommodate you to a Better Room and Ask for a Floor Manager to see into the stuff that you dislike and found yourself uncomfortable with in the Old Room,
Because then they will make sure to give you a room not Frequently used and Very Well Maintained,especially the time in the vid and during your stay when you had to recheck for the next day,it would’ve been better for you to let them know about your stay so far and a better accommodation since you aphid already suffered one night.
P.S PC Hotel isn’t much known for their Gravy’s and I get the concept of you ordering it for Comparison but PC Excels at Biryani,next time try that,Their Biryani is actually one of K Town’s Finest.
Quality is always compromised in rushy hotels.
Sarena and PC are the hotels where rooms are always occupied.
I love pakistan Chris why u not chang room u a bade man
Good to see you once again in Pakistan.
Where is your friend Max ?
I was going to stay in this hotel brand PC LAHORE in 3 weeks changed my mind after watching your vlogs you saved me 😅
That was surely not a mold.
it sure looked like mold to me considering the streaks. but I suppose it’s impossible to be sure from just looking. i find it strange they wouldn’t use a white colored sealant in a 5 star hotel though.
@ give them the benefit of the doubt for this thing otherwise, improvements are needed as it is a 5-star hotel, but don’t you think you did a bit of exaggeration as well? 😂 ps. not a hater
Chris why are you so tense at the Start looks like you came pre planned.
Thanks for highlighting all the flaws in pc hotel, now they have got the opportunity to make them better
Q. Which cemara do you use for vlogs?
❤❤❤❤
We Indians still remember how much pakistani cricketers
loved being in Indian hotels when they came here for a tournament ,
Now we know the reason 😂
pakistan still remember how indian pilot loves the tea of pakistan😂
@@hey346 you need a brain wash tea was cheap but was good but you have expensive but ugly 🤣🥸
@@ZAFI-8TEEN oh yea .he also mentioned how cheap it was 😂🤡
Looks like you are on a mission!
As a person afraid of blood, I would've freaked out after seeing those red stains... U should have reported this to staff
You are lier sir I live 4 days in same room it was amazing from 🇮🇹 italy
Why lie ? u r not italian
U r just a pakistani that lives in Italy
Saaar I'm pathan from Italeee saaarrr. You lying saarrrr.😈😈👿👿👿
chris i think you being from america might have something to do with the amount of oil they added in your food lol
As a Pakistani I'm really disappointed to see this, but it's the harsh reality! These so-called top notch hotels must improve the standards, they were good in the beginning but now it's all shit, such a disgrace to international tourism finally coming back to Pakistan.
hey chris thanks for review of different hotels in pakistan and i know that they are worse than the indian hotels as india hotels really take care of their guests
Come to E-11 Northern Strip Street 1. Royal Palace. Islamabad. 7 Star hotel !!
Thanks for the review, I definitely will think twice before I book with either place.Definitely wont be eating hotel food!
Hotel mgmt. THAT was embarrassing!
Bro complains more than a 10yr old girl
As a Pakistani i would say, The hotel owner must watch this video. May be he, the owner don, know how to actually run a business. Worst hotel. Chargin pkr 45000.
You should stay in Murree at some hotel as well. Maybe start a series of Hotel Reviews. Good watch... Keep it up bro! Love your videos... Can start Buffett Reviews in Pakistan as well... Eat and Critic....!
you are in Pakistan this is not USA chicken karhai have oily we know as well because this is our food not USA food.
Are you still in Pakistan?
I would really like to meet you
🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰
Next time bring a microscope and see the germs 😂. C'mon man ! Where are you from? I have been to many hotels in Europe and minor stains and a bit mould is normal. Btw the one you showed under the sink is NOT mould. Out of your mind or are you catering to the Indian audience. After enjoying all the free service from the good people in the country give something back man. Anyways you're making money from these TH-cam videos.
I agree with you, He eats street food in horrible conditions. But complains about this because of the sink
