I stayed here for two weeks. I lucked out and ended up with a larger room that had 2 double beds, AND a free fridge/microwave. Not all room have these luxuries however. Even better I had a GORGEOUS view of the river. That said, as others have mentioned the wait for the elevator is CRAZY. Forget about using it when... more

I expected more from a Crowne Plaza. It needs updating. 3 elevators for so many floors is not sufficient. We waited over 15 minutes to get an elevator down in the morning from floor 16. It has the old heat/cool system - they had been switched to HEAT and a friendly maid turned it way up for us. Do not... more

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and it was perfect for what we needed. They offer a complimentary airport shuttle every 30 minutes from the aiport or you can take a cab for about $25 - $30. The rooms are pretty standard...not very big and could use a little updating. We had a great view of the river... more

Just back from marathon - 16th floor so nice view of river and beyond, typically sized room and BR, plasma tv, a remote controlled bed for best comfort level. Staff more than helpful. Got a good rate ($135) through the marathon, and that seemed reasonable. more

This is a great location for downtown St. Paul. Stayed here twice in September 2009 and many times in the past.. Housekeeping does a terrific job keeping this hotel sparkling clean. Confortable beds and crisp linens are a plus. All employees are professional and courteous. The rooms are small, some have spectacular River views. Sadly however the room furnishings are... more

The hotel was very nice in the Crowne Plaza image. Staff was very friendly and accomodating. I even left my cell phone there, and by the time I got back from the airport, it was waiting at the front desk for me. Bar had great food, limited selection, but what I had was very good. The bad part about this... more

I attended a conference at the Crowne Plaza Riverfront. The meeting facilities were okay, but not amazing. The best thing about the hotel was its location. It's downtown on the river with great views, but within walking distance of the cathedral, capitol, historic neighborhoods, shopping, and great restaurants. Definite pluses -- an on-site coffee bar serving Starbucks; free wireless (though... more

The staff could not have been more helpful! We had several interactions with the front desk and they were warm and accommodating. The room was very comfortable and had sleep number beds. We did not hear any sounds from other rooms. We tried room service one evening- it was quick and the food was very good. We used the garage... more

Phoned hotel directly to enquire about parking for tall vehicle, SUV with carrier on top. Staff informed us that we would not fit in the garage, but the valet would be able to securely park car. Upon arrival valet would NOT park the car and told us it was our responsibility to find our own parking. We informed the hotel... more
