It was the second time we stayed here in the last few years. Very comfortable rooms and good service. Breakfast was very busy! Short staffed was the problem but they worked very hard. Had a few pancakes one morning that were very hard. Besides that all the other food was great. I really want to thank the staff member Sheb. He was amazing at the breakfast service. So efficient, friendly and hands on. We got talking and he said he's been there for seven years and was a postman before that. Definitely made the right career move! He is a people's person who goes above and beyond to guarantee 100% satisfaction for his customers! Thank you Sheb. I'll grab another cappuccino next time I'm in town!

Recently I stayed at Crowne Plaza Canberra over the long weekend and had a fantastic experience. The rooms were quiet, comfortable, and felt relaxing despite the hotel being exceptionally busy. The central location makes it easy to access Canberra’s key attractions, restaurants, and shopping areas. I particularly enjoyed the hotel’s spaces, which create a modern atmosphere throughout the hotel. Breakfast each morning was crazy busy but excellently managed although had some wait times. What impressed me most was the team, with more than 600-800 ppl at least occupying the building during a busy long weekend, the staff remained professional, friendly, and attentive at all times. The way they managed the busy period while still delivering genuine care was truly commendable. A big thank you to the entire team for a wonderful stay. I would happily return and highly recommend Crowne Plaza Canberra to anyone visiting the capital.

This was a repeat stay for us. Great location and facilities BUT... The room way WAY too hot and the AC could only be turned down so much, and no further. Making it worse, there were no separate sheets on the bed, just a Doona. Too cool for no bed covers and way to hot with the Doona on. The room was made up on our second day but really all that was done was to turn down the top of the Doona. No coffee replenishment or anything else done. Making thing worse, we were charged for something from the mini bar that we did not use. Some people use the mini bar, we NEVER do. Overall, it was enough to put us off staying there again. Such a pity as it is in such a great location.
