Perfect stay

A lovely stay as usual. Great location for the OVO Hydro, Armadillo, SECC, Science Centre and Riverside Museums all within walking distance. We were on the 15th floor with a lovely view of the River Clyde. Lovely bathrobes and slippers for comfort. Very clean and comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant which was nice and the breakfast choice was plentiful. Couldn’t fault it. Will definitely return.

Great hotel, unfortunate maintenance timing.

Nice hotel. Nothing wrong with our stay except the pool and sauna facilities being unavailable. Which we found out at check oit the next morning. If id known in advance these facilities wouldnt be available i would of booked sonewhere else as i was really really looking forward to having a couple hours relaxing before the journey home. I overhead a couple in the lift who where offered a free breakfast as way of apology. I was told sorry. A lttle compensation would of been nice too. But it is a nice hotel and everything else was great. I would defo stay again but i would check to make sure all the facilities that i paid for will be available on the dates!!

The reception staff were outstanding. Mohamed was a breath of fresh air. So polite and chatting with our kids. I honestly believe after chatting to an online member telling her the reason of our stay we got a nice treat and we can honestly not thank everyone enough. Breakfast was superb. Unfortunately we had a small issue. The pool was nice but the changing rooms were appealing. Used towels everywhere, cleanliness was not great, half eaten apple left on floor. I understand guests should take there towel out but I do not think it would take much for the staff to have a walk through every so often to check and give quick clean. Sorry this sounds bad but for the Crowne plaza you don’t expect that. Everything else was superb

I recently stayed at your hotel while attending the C2C festival. Unfortunately, I encountered a few issues that impacted my stay. The lift situation was a significant problem, particularly during peak periods. At times, only one lift was operational! I strongly recommend ensuring all three lifts are functioning for future busy weekends. Additionally, I had lounge access, but unfortunately, the opening times for drinks and canapés did not align with the festival schedule. Many guests, including myself, were attending the C2C festival, and adjusting the lounge opening times to accommodate the event schedule would greatly enhance the guest experience.

Lifts broken so had to wait for ages getting down 9 floors. At one point several of us wondered if we’d make breakfast it took so long. Breakfast queue was pretty poor. Stayed at the Moxy and Marriott (twice) previously so think I’ll be heading back to one of these next year.
