G. A.
Stayed one night in a twin room which was prefect for a family of 4. Hotel has been refreshed and they’ve done an amazing job with it. Overall hotel including rooms are nice and modern. Buffet breakfast is great value with a good size selection.
K. S.
My daughter stayed 1 night for her 18th birthday. She loved the room and view. Bed was very comfy and breakfast was great. There was a note in her room and a complimentary bottle of wine to wish her happy birthday. Very happy with her experience and finished her special day nicely.
P. “.
There for be a conference. Staff were helpful. Rooms and bathrooms very clean and obviously kept clean between sessions.
Food was good quality fresh, well presented, usually I try to avoid conference food. Also well planned not mountains of waste.
The 'Dive bar' for drinks after, got vibe, very clean professionally staffed.
Well done.
D. M.
Stayed for three nights in a twin room! Great service, Covid friendly.
I would suggest adding a little more to the room service menu (particularly for kids) but everything else was great!
As were living in a Covid world, there is no minibar and no robes, slippers etc however this can be requestedat reception and they will accommodate.
Pool was fantastic also!
s.
Very friendly and helpful staffs. Room was very clean and tidy with awesome view. Breakfast was included in room rate, it was delicious.
Car parking was bit confusing. Overall it was good experience.

The Hotel is in a prime location, Tram stop out the front. Walking distance to the Casino and all the Restaurants along the river and the CBD.. The Hotel has just been updated and looks like new. The Staff are very friendly and cannot do enough to make your stay memorable.

Had a studio which was very comfortable, aesthetically pleasing and had a fantastic view of our gorgeous river precinct! Loved seeing the helicopters fly past my windows.

Really nice hotel staff were great there service was excellent except one day we were there we went out for the day and came back and our bed wasn't made and no clean towels I'm not sure what happened weather it was something to do with covid or staff issues don't know but every other day was good no issues at all we also included breakfast and it was awesome plenty of variety hot and cold it was just a shame that there restaurant wasn't opened i asked about it and they said that they couldn't get staff to open up yet but were hoping that would change soon we needed help with a few things and there staff couldn't have been more helpful all an all great place to stay would definitely stay there again when in Melbourne thankyou to the staff for making our stay so great 🤗🤗🤗

Lucky to fit in a few days at CP before Melbourne went into another lock down. It ws so good to have a different view from the four walls we have looked at for almost 18 months now. …
R.
I recently spent five days here, staying in room 801. BRILLIANT views of the city at night. Definitely ask for one of the rooms starting with 01-03 as they're the closest to the city with the best views at night. …

Well located, excellent service, comfy beds, complete blockout blinds (yay! For a good sleep in!) and gorgeous river views.

C. B.
Clean rooms, staff are friendly. Buffet breakfast was fantastic. The room on the 10th floor had a good view of the city and the trains that went past. Bit noisy though.

We stayed for 6 nights and loved every minute of those 6 days. The room was great. The view was fantastic. Room service was plentiful and delicious. Yugo restaurant food was sublime. Most importantly, the staff and I do mean everyone we met …

(not sure we received an upgrade)
Amazing views of the harbour from the suit. …

The renovations to the Crowne Plaza are great, the hotel is modern and can compete with other hotels in Melbourne. The location is convenient, staff are friendly and service excellent. Rooms are quiet with nice bathrooms and amenties. I'd defintely stay again!
M.
Used some of my Qantas points to pay for the place for 2 nights. Complimentary breakfast was excellent. My family used the pool at night which was heated, and they loved it. Didn't get a chance to use the gym.
R. M.
Great location, view, comfortable beds beautiful rooms
Excellent service
Celeste had a beautiful happy demeanour and was welcoming of everyone at breakfast
Owen at the front desk was also very welcoming, professional, and warm as we checked in. He congratulated us on our anniversary left us a card and made the celebration all the more special. Thank you Owen

Rooms were spacious and clean with a great view. Staff friendly. Great location - access across the road to the free Melbourne tram and walking distance to DFO South Wharf and the Casino.

Staff were great. Room was great. Bed super comfy. It was honestly my favourite stay in Melbourne so far.
L.
The bar staff and restaurant manager Reece went above and beyond and really know what it means to provide service and be proactive. They remembered what we were drinking from when we stayed there 4 months ago. The service was impeccable at …

We stayed at the crown plaza for our 16th wedding anniversary. On arrival we were greeted and checked in. We were upgraded to the river view room which had amazing views. We stepped out for awhile and came back to a complimentary bottle …
M.
Overall fantastic experience at Crown , from arrival to breakfast and depart.
Gym is ok , would only wanted to have few more relax facilities to be able to use.
Will be back
J.
What I like most about our stay is first, the location is perfect! It is a few minute walks in the main train station and even less than a minute walk in the nearest tram! …
H. n.
My wife and I have stayed at Crown Plaza many times and the reason for that is the location, the view and the quality staff especially Belle who has looked after us a number of times. …
G.
My partner and I stayed here for my birthday. The staff were very welcoming, very professional and very friendly.
The price of the room was a little extreme but we enjoyed our stay.
J.
Exceptional. Very friendly staff and so helpful. Gave us a skyline room and the view was amazing. Given I’d booked here and not there more expensive towers, we realised our view and site was probably better! In fact I loved being over the small bridge and away from bicycles running us over and the hustle of the bank. Where we were was almost at the point of the bank on flinders bridge looking back towards Spencer st bridge and the other bridges and wow! Excellent bedding. Huge picture window. Fantastic cocktails and I can’t fault the food. Tender steak, beautifully cooked greens. Hand made spring rolls. This place was an accidental heaven! V v good! Thankyou!
K.
Our trip was a celebration of 18th birthday. We arrived to find we had been given a room upgrade and a bottle of champagne in our room. My daughter was on crutches and all staff were very accommodating to ensure she was comfortable and offered assistance where ever possible. Great location and would stay here again.

Unfortunately our stay was cut short due to Covid but from the moment we entered the Hotel we were very impressed by the ambiance and elegance. Checkin staff were very friendly and prompt and we felt very at home and relaxed. Our room was …

Friendly and prompt service. Well appointed room. The reservation desk was very flexible with accommodating my requests.
D. 9.
Great riverview room and very comfortable bed. Loved the Nespresso coffee machine. The buffet breakfast in the morning was great. I checked where the body lotion was made and disappointed to see it made in China, was hoping an Australian …
P. K.
Great location for walking around Melbourne, easy to get to and leave but no free parking. Rooms have good bed/ pillows and shower with a great view of river and city. Our room came with shampoo, conditioner and body wash so no shaving or other toiletries and no bath robe. We didn't have any mini bar so bring some beer and munchies to put in your fridge. Good hotel and friendly staff will be staying here again in future.

From the moment we arrived at Crowne Plaza Melbourne we were greeted with the friendliest staff I've experienced in any hotel. Knowing we were there to celebrate our anniversary, each staff member we spoke to wished us a happy anniversary. …

Had a wonderful stay at Crowne Plaza. Food was delicious and staff friendly including staff at bar downstairs. My only suggestion would be when cleaning the room ensure staff also restock items such as toilet paper and tea bags. They were …
P.
Awesome location, delish breakfast, lovely room (with a bonus view tks), friendly (professional) staff, this is one of the best hotels I've stayed in for a long time. Keep up the good work.

At the last minute i had to book a hotel due to a cancelled flight returning home from a business trip. Crowne was on the list and had availability for the price. …

Upgrade on arrival to skyline view was sensational. Room was spacious, fresh and comfortable. Staff from first point of contact with Valet service through to front desk, concierge, restaurant staff and cleaning staff, were genuinely …
K.
Hard to get to from the street. Excellent customer service a concierge met us at our car and explained the off site parking. The offsite parking was easy to get to and the hotel gives you a coupon for $17 per day parking- approximately a …
S.
Presented a room with a magical view by very kind and helpful staff. A memorable stay and a must if travelling to Melbourne CBD to stay.
V.
This was our first stay in a hotel post COVID lockdown and it was lovely and clean, and everything you would usually find in a hotel room was still available on request. Although it looks dated on the outside, the rooms are nice. The pool …

We stayed at Crowne Plaza for a Staycation. The hotel is modern, has great amenities (i.e., pool and gym) and is in a great location. The room was clean and comfortable. The included breakfast was substantial and great quality. We did …

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Family of 4 staying at Crowne for a “staycation” in our local city. Great value for money. Incredibly clean. Good pool. Great customer service and communication. A very practical location to visit …
M. J. N.
I the best stay. We were given the river view and excellent view to the fire show. The room and sheets were clean and i absolutely love the temperature of the room. Breakfast was yummy too. The staff were wonderful and accommodating, they made sure we had a pleasant stay.
4 stars because:
The floor under the sidetable was so dusty, did not get cleaned for a while it seems
In the buffet breakfast, I found and called the staff attention because there were 2 plates in a row with dried old food.
M.
Great result from refurbishement, it is now a real 4.5 star hotel. The staff are first class and the rooms great. It is really good to be able to lower the room temperature for sleep. We have been staying here for 20-25 years and it has changed so much for the better.
M. W.
I enjoyed my stay and will have no problems staying there again beautiful room and very helpful staff.
D.
Excellent location, tram stop right out front.
Easy access to everything around town.
Valet parking was terrible.
J.
it was effortless and all my needs were met
great coffe shop in the lobby if yiu want to avoid the big breakfast
T. R.
What a lovely stay.
The hotel is part of the IHG chain. The usual acknowledgment of your membership status with check in. Friendly front desk staff.
Hotel is situated conveniently next to crown and Melbourne convention and exhibition centre. Walking distance to the CBD and southern cross station for SkyBus and trains.
Beautiful view of Melbourne CBD from the hotel. Comfortable room. Recently renovated hotel rooms and facility. Quiet room. Gym and swimming pool in hotel, and valet parking.
Not really liking the TV. Seems a bit old and also unlike other Crowne plaza or really IHG hotels, you couldn’t mirror your device on the TV.
Overall a decent stay meeting the expectation of Crowne plaza.
Z. P.
I stayed in the King Skyline Riverview Suite along with my partner and our 6 month old. We were very impressed with all the comforts of the room and having a cot already set up when we arrived, but the main reason we had splurged and booked this room was for the bathtub. While trying to fill up the bathtub and have a bath the water would just empty as the plug is not sealed properly. All other aspects were amazing but I was just disappointed with bathtub.
H.
The stay was worth every cent paid for. The staff were amazing the food was amazing the view was amazing.
m.
from the moment we walked in we felt like we were the only guest receiving the "special treatment"! 10/10 in all aspects of our stay.
R. G.
Great value for money. Room was very clean and stylish. The bed was amazingly comfortable. Not to mention the view form my room on the 10th floor... amazing! Over looking the Yarra River toward Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre. …
H.
Beautiful Hotel, so central to everything. We enjoyed our stay and will be back again.
S. R.
The restaurants are pricey but that's expected at a place like this.
Try and check in a little after 3pm as we experienced a massive line.
The rooms are very small but they were nice, although they were a bit different from the pictures.
Extremely convenient location.
Friendly staff.
T. K. K.
Booked a riverview suite and we were disappointed with our stay. Lack of amenities on the back of CoVid-19 rationale of reducing almost everything. Expect bottled toiletries under lock and key - we felt fine for standard rooms but for a premium room was somewhat a let down. Anything else required a phone call to housekeeping which unfortunately confirmed there was no complimentary bottled water, nothing for the bathtub (i.e. bath salts or bubbles), etc. We moved to a different place after our 4 night stay to reflect on a nice location that could have been so much better. Pity as an IHG member and was a fan...

Crowne plaza Coogee beach is my favourite go to hotel to unwind. My husband and I visit a couple times a year to relax and enjoy the views of Coogee beach. Our stay was great with the best customer service at the front desk and at the bar …
S. L.
Back of house staff were friendly and responsive. Conference venue was absolutely ideal for our purposes and I would definitely use again. Please note that we did not stay at the hotel or use their catering, so I cannot comment on these aspects.
F.
First time but definitely won’t be the last time. The hotel has perfect location and the room arranged for me enjoys amazing river view. Room spotless and quiet. What’s more,many thanks to Kristel at reception for her excellent arrangements …

The Hotel is amazing, rooms were clean, staff were so friendly and accommodating. …
T.
Noticeable dust in the room. I would have liked to see a spotless room given the covid clean they promote. Otherwise room was great. Breakfast is a disaster for me. Poorly laid out, poorly organised. No social distancing. Really …
M.
The first impression is the last impression.
The receptionist Ms Sothea was very rude at the reception specially when I asked for a room with bathtub. …
T.
I absolutely love staying at Crowne Plaza. It is easy to get to and parking is close by plus you get a parking voucher if you ask the staff. Rooms are spacious. And the bed is so super comfy. Staff have always been friendly and helpful.
B. O.
Sparkling hotel with amazing facilities and staff. Booked last minute for a NYE getaway and was able to check in early and check out late with no issues which was really appreciated. The room was modern and clean as was the whole hotel. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating too! Would definitely recommend and will book again next time we travel to melbourne.

From Reece and Ella at the Yugo restaurant and Ben and Daniel including the Dive bar - Thank you for making our stay the best and entertaining friends and colleagues. You made it that much more memorable for all of us with your kindness and …

Another stay here that did not disappoint. This is our go to hotel when we’re in the city for a staycation. Loved the new look of the hotel and brand new pool and restaurants. All the staff make us feel so welcome and it’s easy to know …
T. E.
Great location, they upgraded our room to a river view. Comfortable king bed. Room cleaned to a high standard. We were very impressed that there was no road noise from our room.
b. M.
The bed is really comfy and the staffs are amazing. The hotel upgraded us to riverside but the windows are abit dirty however I did not really care. The most amazing thing is an honesty from the staffs. We left our money in the hotel room which we did not realise until we got to Alice Springs. I thought that we were not gonna get it back and really angry to my partner for forgetting money then we called the hotel and got our money back! Thanks everyone especially the house keeper who cleaned our room 827. We will stay there again!
M.
If you are looking for a place to stay for either work or business, you should put the Crown Plaza Hotel Melbourne on the top of your list.
Fantastic Service. …

Hotel staff were very friendly. I received ample information prior to arrival so I knew what to expect.

My wife and i had our wedding anniversary here. We had our room upgraded free of charge and had a bottle of sparkling with a happy anniversary letter waiting for us in the room.
View of the yarra river and skyline was amazing the best view in melbourne. Staff were friendly. Will definitely be going back highly recommend!!.
B.
I really enjoyed our stay. Very relaxing.
I'm looking at being my kids in for a weekend experience hopefully soon.
The bathroom could of been more closed off from the room its self . Little more private for toilet use.
c.
My husband and I needed a 24 hour break from our 3 teenagers after restrictions eased. We celebrate our 27th wedding anniversary next week, so the timing was great. …
R. W.
The checkin process is ridiculous. I waited in line for 40mins. They need to fix that problem.
Comfortable room nice and clean. However we stayed in a room with 2 double beds and had booked 4 adults in. We had 2 towels in the bathroom which we thought that's fine we will call room service for more towels. We ended up calling 3 times in a 2 hour period and no towel delivery. We ended up finding a housekeeping trolley and and got our own towels in the end.
Vallet parking is over priced especially when you have to take your own luggage out and load your own car.
I think its super convenient to hot spots and that's the only reason I'd stay again but there's no wow factor.
T.
Overall a great location early morning stroll on the Yarra
Tram out front.
Massive Tv in the room with good working desk. …
L. a. W.
In Melbourne for business - I chose the Crown Plaza. Not entirely their fault - but the place does feel a bit quiet - most likely due to COVID and the low room occupancy as a consequence. …
W. H.
Doors are made of paper as you can hear the farts of other guests in the hallway. The pineapple juice at breakfast was fermenting and the manager said it was fine, hence a lot of farting in the hallway. On the plus side the shower was very clean.
J. F.
Great hotel, friendly staff, comfortable rooms and a convenient location
K. C.
Incredible service under very trying circumstances. Staying just as a covid lock down was announced. Staff were unfailingly friendly, polite and upbeat. Had a meal at Yugo; outstanding food and charming service.
C.
A beautiful hotel in a great location: views from the rooms are amazing. The staff were all so welcoming. The rooms are really well appointed and the bed is super comfy.
L.
Enjoyed my stay at Crowne plaza. Great customer srrvice, went extra mile to heat up for my son whenever i meeded thwm to. Housekeeping and IT were 100%. Breakfast could do with a little more variety but was generally very good.
L.
Me and my partner celebrate Christmas in City and we chose this hotel because it’s near to shopping center. Staffs are friendly, food is great. Only need to improve the cleaning in the room. But overall the ambiance of the room is good. I will still visit again.
b.
Fantastic service on arrival and throughout the entire stay. Staff were warm, welcoming and exceptionally good with our young son, rooms were throughly clean and well maintained.
