continued my stay at the Crown after one night at the HI on Flinders. It was a bit quieter for over a week, but then the room I was in was overtaken by noise from the bathroom above. The toilets at this hotel do not stop running unless the button is pressed a couple of times (sort of like when... more

A most disappointing experience, booked for four nights and checked out after one! The hotel has been refurbished for single business people. For example only one lounge chair in the room but has a computer desk and office chair!. No draw storage for clothes. Room was very small and despite paying for river view (at a significant premium) you just... more

We've just come back from a two night stay (Fri, Sat) at the Crowne Plaza a have mixed opinions about the hotel. Positive: We got a great deal through a secret hotel deal, location is great (just across from the Crown Casino, Southbank and 10min walk from Federation Square) and it's got great views of the river and Southbank. Negative:... more

This hotel is very much a business-focused hotel, located on the Yarra River accross from the convention center and the Crown Entertainment Complex (casino). Easy access to public transportation in a very walkable city, and the hotel is close to everything. Rooms were large with comfortable beds. The business center was easy to use, and the concierge desk was especially... more

Great & Nice Location, Just across from Crowne Hotel Casino. Rooms are clean. Staff are helpful. Services are don't effectively. Provide selection of Pillows & Aromatheraphy Scents. Bars downstairs are nice and cosy. You might hear the train run by during the early hours. more

We stayed at the Crowne for business. Had to go to the Exhibition Centre which is just next door. On arrival the conceriage came out to help you and when asked questions during our stay were very helpful. The staff at reception were very friendly and check in was easy. rooms were a good size we had two double beds... more

Booked the Crowne Plaza hoping for a bit of deluxe comfort whilst in Melbourne. The Hotel is a terribly ugly (80's ?) building on the Yarra river and despite attempts to mask it, is quite dated. Check in was cool and clinical. My top floor suite a spacious disappointment, the lounge sterile and empty. The bedroom had a queen bed... more

I got this hotel as a 'Wot Hotel?' on Wotif for a great rate. The room and hotel was impeccably clean. Staying there mid-week, it was over-run by business people and air-hostesses. I didn't have a view over the Yarra, but I wasn't expecting one. And there are spots on every floor where you can enjoy the view, and I... more

We stayed at the Crowne Plaza for business. The room was small and looking a little in need of a revamp. Due to being in Melbourne for business, we didn't spend much time in our room anyway. We dined in the restaurant for breakfast and it was very good a la carte. Nice coffee. I would stay again due to... more
