It was a shame our room was so close to the lifts, it was really noisy at night and in the morning with people coming and going. The lift situation was also frustrating. We ended up taking the stairs everytime. Breakfast was great, the bar was great and so was checkin/checkout.

Booking issues

Booked wrong date by mistake (ie) wrong month. Noticed my error after a couple of days. Tried to reschedule my dates with the hotel who would not. Tried to get a refund and after waiting days to respond. Finally got told they would not. Poor service in my opinion from hotel management which clearly only care about taking in cash oppose to actual treating customers fairly after a genuine mistake. Won’t be staying with this lot agin in the future.

Great Staff but a couple of suggestions

I have stayed at the Crowne Plaza on a couple of occasions now and on our recent visit the service was excellent the staff are super friendly and helpful. The room with a view was lovely, bed very comfortable but a couple of improvements required - not enough plug sockets for the kettle and using powdered scrambled egg is s big no for me too, I asked for an omelette which most 4 star hotels accommodate but this request was refused, even though chefs were walking around in chef hats.
