Crowne Plaza was very nice, convenient place to stay at. Buffet breakfast was amazing so much food to choose from. Bed was comfortable but for some reason there was only a queen size quilt on a king size bed. So we were fighting over the quilt all night as it wasn’t big enough!! The beautiful view of the trees in the park next to the motel and framed by a huge window!

The hotel is in a few spot to access shopping and fanatic dining options. The room, particularly the bathroom is very dated, and desperately needs updating. The beds were doubles which was not a comfortable sleep for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. We won’t be booking here next visit. Staff were friendly though!

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.
