Cons:

Forgot about my coffee order at breakfast and didn’t attempt to make it before other orders that people put after my order. Disappointing

Okay
Pros:

The cleaning staff were friendly

Cons:

This hotel needs to be updated. It’s pleasant enough, the cleaning staff in particular are very pleasant and the restaurant staff quite nice too, however it’s dated, could be cleaner in the bathrooms which have old shower curtains, and extremely dim rooms. Unless you’re needing to be near Macquarie for work, I’d say the location is not great, don’t rely on the metro being close by, it can be closed last minute and then you’re stranded in the middle of no where.

Very Disappointing and unsatisfactory service.
Cons:

I had stayed previously at Crowne Plaza Canberra awhile ago and my expectations were such that the standard would have been similar or higher at Crowne Plaza Sydney. Unfortuneately they weren't! Not all travellers are capable as I am not now after surviving 2 strokes. No concierge to assist in unloading and carrying my luggage inside. I refused to remove my vehicle hence blocking the carriageway until that assistance was provided and a male cleaner came out with a trolley to assist me. Further the Room Service wasn't as advertised in the room brouchure and the after hours meal room service menu (9.30pm until moorning) wasn't available, I purposely didn't eat takeaway expecting a nourishing meal because medically I needed my insulin dose before eating, I arrived and attempted to order and was told that the chef hadn't left any meals and I could purchase an overpriced pizza. I was not happy and voiced my disgust to the reception staff, I ate nothing for dinner! I paid top dollar for a room at a 5 star hotel and would have received better treatmment at a backpackers.
