Absolutely faultless !

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 28 Jul 2024
My elderly wife and 78 & 83 are seasoned travellers and not easily impressed, however our stay here is as good as it gets. We have the good fortune to not have to be too concerned about cost and this hotel is very reasonably priced but far exceeds may hotels who’s prices make even our old eyes sting.
The staff, facilities, perks, even the gym is magnificent, which we are off to for a good long workout after we have finished our tea in our comfortable
bed, following which we will enjoy a well earned breakfast. Just hope our luxury Cruise Ship which we board later today is even half as good as this.

This was my second stay, my first was very disappointing with more than one service issue but I decided to give it a second chance.

Check in was smooth, the room had been upgraded which is something I appreciated as a diamond elite. Lounge access was added as per my reward wallet.

We found the room a decent size, a nice view and the AirCon and WiFi worked well. There were a few treats in the room which was also nice. Though it seems to be missing a fridge.

We went for a swim, this has to be booked but wasn’t too busy. After a while we went to the Exec lounge where a lovely staff member was setting up a fine spread of food.

Actually, it was really the best selection I’ve seen in many Crowne Plaza’s as well as plenty of crisps and fruit. There was Prosecco and spirits which I really appreciated.

It wasn’t too busy either, people came and went and it was pleasant to sit and enjoy a few drinks before going for a walk in the evening. The proximity to the docks is great and while I think there are better hotels in Liverpool this was quite perfect for my stay and I’ve been won over on my second visit.

Breakfast the next morning was great, we took it as our welcome amenity and although the restaurant is small it was a decent spread and staff were constantly topping things up.

Stayed here for two days earlier this month. First thing, there’s loads of parking but come on guys the cost is getting to the obscene level now. Add the cost to the room and it’ll be more palatable.
Anyway. The main area was nice bar and restaurant were nice.
The hotel is the next door neighbour to the Liver building and ten minutes from Albert Dock.
The room was small and lacked a fridge.
Staff were attentive enough but watch for the expensive drinks at the bar.
All in all a pleasant enough stay but there’s cheaper comparable hotels in close proximity

A lovely one night stay to celebrate a special birthday made so by the lovely people there, especially those on reception, most helpful and pleasant and the two lovely ladies serving at breakfast (tried to remember your names ?Claire and Theresa?) who had a pleasant word for all and smiled all the time, not easy on a breakfast shift!!?
Good pool, comfy beds, delicious breakfast but the staff make it
2nd visit and we shall return again !

Room tip: Ask the staff, they will solve all your problems!

It was a very average Crowne Plaza, in every aspect.

The building, facilities (pool changing room, gym) and the room need some refurbishment, they are quite dated, especially for the public areas, feels like I was back in the 90s. You can adjust the screen ratio of the TV to make it from 4:3 to 16:9, it feels much modernised afterwards (but higher definition would be more preferred).

Cleanliness needs some proper improvement, encountered 2 heavily stained towel during my 1-night stay, first one was in my room's bathroom, another one was the towel given to you at the swimming pool. The changing room was constantly wet and used towels are everywhere. However, other parts of my room appeared to be clean.

Inside the room, there was a generous selection of tea, coffee and hot chocolate. The provision of chocolate and cookies was a very nice gesture too!

Breakfast was OK and it had all the usual items, but at least food was freshly made!

Nothing too particular for staff service, quite cold and standardise, and not exactly welcoming for requesting late check-out, even though it was just for an hour and I was gold-tier member.

We loved this hotel. Great city centre location with easy access to ample on site parking. Nice comfortable room with a view. Great buffet breakfast. Personable, helpful and professional staff in all areas. And despite one or two earlier comments to the contrary, we found the hotel very clean and tidy throughout. The bar area was pretty soulless but, with all the fantastic bars to visit in the city, we only needed to use it for a cuppa on arrival. I was more than happy to part with the £287 for our two nights B&B. Quite happy to pay £38 for the parking too. The only gripe I did have was when my account was debited twice and it took me a week to get the overpayment back. These things happen though and it certainly didn't mar our stay. Will definitely return to The Crowne Plaza when I'm next in the wonderful city of Liverpool.
