Manager refused late check out for IHG member
Pros:

I had very good service from the gentleman checking me in, but my one request was denied. In the past I have been able to stay on later if I checked in late. The manager refused, even though I am an IHG member.

A spectacular stray at the Grand Mirage
Pros:

A great location that is central and that made access to places (venues, museum, shops, recreational sites) easily accessible. Very kind and knowledgeable staff. The rooms were well maintained throughout our stay there. Room service is available round the clock and at an affordable price. Sufficient and secure parking in the basement. I highly recommend the facility, it offers the best value for money.

Crowne Plaza Canberra Excellet stay and experience!
Pros:

The receptionist staff, especially Zom, were unbelieable and so accomodating. Again no Concierge assistance but when advised of the medical problems I suffered from, Zom arranged immediately for a male staff member to assist me unloading and moving my luggage to my designated room. Zom was so pleasant and made the experience of staying at Crowne Plaza Canberra so accomodating and enjoyable. A smile goes a long way to ease the stress of a weary traveller! Room Service was excellent as were the waiters, although like Sydney, Canberra is also a cashless society, although I was able to offer a gratutity when I was afforded good service which was all of the time.
