Choose the harbour-front Crowne Plaza Newcastle hotel for ocean views and easy access to beaches and Hunter Valley golf courses and vineyards. Take a taxi past the fishing boats of Newcastle's revitalised dockyard, then step into Crowne Plaza Newcastle's calming marble-clad Lobby. Friendly Front Desk staff will take care of your bags. Retreat to your Spa Suite and relax in your private jetted tub , or head outside for a dip in our aqua-blue pool . At Crowne Plaza Newcastle, you're just a 25-minute taxi ride from Newcastle Airport in Williamtown, or 2 hours' drive from Sydney Airport . We're 100 metres from Civic Train Station , and a tourist tram serving local attractions stops outside the hotel. The Hunter Wine Valley is 45 minutes by car, while Newcastle's beaches are just 800 metres away. The harbourside location also means local industry, especially coal, is close by. A dedicated Crowne Meetings Director is on hand to help you plan the perfect event. Wedding guests banquet in the grand ballroom , while business-minded executives enjoy discussions in our waterfront meeting rooms . You'll find wireless Internet throughout the hotel. Drink in views of the harbour as you sample Hunter Valley wines and a gourmet meal crafted from fresh Australian ingredients at Seasalt Restaurant in Crowne Plaza Newcastle. Or savour a cold beer among the cool blues and greys of the bar.

Although it was more than we usually

Although it was more than we usually pay for a room we enjoyed our stay very much. The staff were friendly and helpful, the location was fantastic and the room was great for entertaining our guests (ie watching the rugby) after enjoying a delicious meal and the view in the restaurant. We look forward to staying again.

very good waterfront position

very good waterfront position and very quiet , good location as far as getting good meals at a variety of restaurants , only drawback is the length of the passage as nearly all rooms are fronting the water , would stay again , rooms lacked cutlery and plates for eating in the rooms .

Check where your room is located

Got a great room rate from [...]but put at end of corridor next to Staff Only access to stairwell.The bedroom was located against this end wall, and throughout the night these doors were banging and the sound reverberating through the room. We booked 2 rooms and the other room was thick with cigarette smell even though all were meant to be non smoking. Street parking around the area is not cheap, so I put the car in Valet parking. Although we would book a time for the car to be brought up, it never was and we would have to request it and wait. The $22 per day was quite dear considering there is at least 1 other good hotel with free parking. Staff at Reception were overall very pleasant, but they are quite young and one was often impatient. The hotel is in a great spot, but check where your room is first.
