Pakistan has been the main source of bread and butter for all kinds of media all around the world for quite some time because this is the place where they can grab stories of all kinds and make money out of it. It is a fact that most of the time media focus has been on the negative aspects of the country but there are few who realize that Pakistan has a lot more to offer. Unfortunately, neither the government of Pakistan nor the media has played a role in the development and promotion of the beautiful places and culture that are there for the world to experience.

It is therefore obvious that with lesser tourism activities having large number of hotels is not feasible but there are some big names who have there branches in different cities. Mostly they are located in the urban cities of the country to accommodate foreigners who are visiting for business concerns but some of them do have hotels in the northern areas for those who want to enjoy the beauty of it with luxury.

* Sheraton Hotel

Sheraton is not a name that require introduction. It offers its services in Hotels and Resorts in countries all around the world and the outclass quality is not hidden from anyone. The name of the Hotel gives a sense of trust and people don't hesitate much when selecting it. Sheraton with 407 rooms of international standards with all the facilities available along with 5 restaurants having a bit of local touch provides you the exact environment you need to relax and enjoy at the same time. Sheraton has been there for decades and so far has no other branch other than in Karachi.

The standard single room for one night stay would cost you US$ 185. The price is comparatively higher. The Hotel is built in the heart of the city. You need to cover some distance from the airport to reach the hotel but all the other places be it Blue Chip Area where all business activities take place or be it the sea view and the restaurants nearby are at just few minutes drive away. If money is not the issue and you are visiting Karachi for the first time and you wish to discover the city of lights in all possible way then there is no reason why you shouldn't choose to stay at Sheraton.

* Pearl Continental Hotels (PC)

Next in line is the immediate competitor of Sheraton Hotel considering that both are built adjacent to each other and are located in an ideal location. PC Hotels play the significant role in the Hotel service of the country having it chain in all the major cities and in northern areas
