Comfortable bed, easy parking. Bathroom could do with a makeover. Service to rooms was slow- out all morning and had to ask for room to be serviced- despite notice on door. A decent size mug for tea/ coffee would be a bonus.

The Sunday breakfast was diabolical , our coffee order was lost in a "glitch" , we never received our omlette , the soft poached eggs were hard . Yes it was busy , but why offer services if you cant do them ? . Is it to keep your star ratings ?.

Located next to the Convention Centre is its biggest plus. The hotel design is from a bygone era, the hotel bar and restaurant are just depressing. But it is clean and safe.

Staff is the best there ! Very professional , accommodating, kind and lovely!! Would do anything for you. Been there many times! Restaurant is great. Parking should be free for guest or a reduced fee (it’s actually $30 a night which is too expensive when you stay a few nights )or should less like $15 for guests staying there. Location is perfect ! Walking distance (200m) to major shopping mall inc. Myer & David jones, Zara, H&M as well as many, many, shops/top boutiques with lots on of lovely cafes . Highly recommend Crowne Plaza Canberra for a stay - I wouldn’t stay anywhere else.

Great stay for families
We stayed for 4 nights in the winter school holidays. The hotel is large and has big common areas with tables and seating. The room had 2 double beds (not queen) which were comfortable, a desk and a chair, and a single seat. Not big, but fine with two small children. The stay included buffet breakfast for 2, and kids under 5 were free. An extra $12 a day for a 7yo. The breakfast was the highlight of the hotel for the kids. Plenty of food to choose from. The location is excellent, with so many shops and restaurants within walking distance.
