We stayed at the Crown Plaza over the long weekend for 3 nights. It's my 2nd stay at the hotel and my husbands 1st. One thing I really like about the rooms is the configuration of the bed in the middle of the room and facing the large window - we had a nice view. The check in was fast... More

I have stayed at this property many times before, but this is my first review. I cannot find any fault in the Crowne Plaza Canberra. The front desk staff are so efficient, check in is always a breeze, and it’s the same during check out, this is what I expect when travelling and it is always delivered at this property.... More

I returned to Crowne Plaza Canberra again this week for a overnight stay. I have to say the staff (i cant remember the name)that did check out for me is the best so far at any IGH hotel. She was very professional, warm and caring. Only took her seconds to fix everything for me. She also asked me if I... More

Have stayed in this hotel a few times before. Just had a 1 night stay this time. Location of hotel is excellent. Within walking distance to lots of restaurants, the main shopping centre in Civic, the swimming pool and Commonwealth Park. Beds are sublimely comfortable and rooms very well set up, especially for business travellers. Basic bathroom, but stocked with... More

Reasonable stay. The room was pleasant enough. Big windows, plenty of towels and comfortable enough bed. Breakfast was very good and the staff were most friendly. Lots of politicians and civil servants having meetings in the place, as you'd expect in Canberra. From memory, the rates were pretty expensive, but it was the period of the city's 100th birthday celebration... More

Stayed here for two nights. The bed is comfortable, the room was clean, plenty of hot water and good towels. It was also quiet which considering how full the hotel was a relief. The decor is the usual dull brown/grey/cream with 'modern' art. Breakfast on the Saturday wasn't too bad, didn't really have to wait for a table but the... More

Quite possibly the worst breakfast service I have ever seen! For the last two hours of service there was a queue at least four parties deep. With the queue at times going up the stairs and around the corner! This wasn't due to a lack of tables. At one point I counted half a dozen unused tables. Some of which... More

Very disappointing, the layout of room very bad, cold and uninviting. Poor lighting, very harsh as just recessed ceiling light and no soft lighting. Blinds very annoying, and harsh. Bathrooms very tired and in need of an update.

Casino is just next door, close to everything. It is a cosy room , there is a variety of teabags to choose either for morning or for night, nice, clean and neat. However the TV remote was very dirty and the curtains were annoied to operate.
