Nice hotel near to airport.
Pros:Easy to get to after dropping rental car off, easy to get to airport the next morning.
Cons:Upgrade bathroom a little... fluorescent light a bit harsh !!!!
Location:Right near the airport.
After a trying drive up the M6, I arrived at the hotel... Staff were efficient and had all my information at the ready. No need for extra questions. The room was quite a walk but pleasing as I was away from hustle and bustle of elevators and other people walking past door to get to their rooms. I would like to request that room again!!!
I was going to eat in my room but the in room service was up to 50 minutes. Great to be informed of that. So I ate at the restaurant and the staff were helpful, very attentive and I did not feel rushed. Very courteous indeed.
I did sleep well, no issues there at all. Great stay and I will certainly stay again without a doubt.
Great service.

Close to Airport
We loved the convenience of the hotel to the airport and the shuttle service provided by the hotel for our early morning departure.

Good Hotel, Awkward Location
Cons:Nothing close, Noisy
First off, this was the only hotel that was available on short notice, so that's a good thing that it's got plenty of rooms to spare.
I stayed a week, and I noticed it was mostly business people that were going to and from the airport.
The big thing: It's not connected to the airport, and you MUST take a shuttle to get ANYWHERE. There's no way to walk to the airport or the train station, and although it only takes a few minutes to get a shuttle and get to the destination, it's kind of a bother.
Secondly, the internet is EXPENSIVE!!!!! It cost me 16 pounds for 24 hours of wireless internet. At three days it really added up. For the price, you would expect free, or at least cheaper internet. It was 5 pounds for an hour, 10 for 4, or 16 for 24. The speeds were quick though, had no problems with it once I was connected.
Cleanliness: The hotel was nice and tidy at all times. Didn't realize they tested the fire alarms every Wednesday but it wasn't an imposition whatsoever. Was there a week, and they didn't change the bed linens once. They DID change the towels in the bathroom, which was nice.
Bed wasn't that comfy, ended up hurting my back a bit, but was able to sleep alright anyways.
Overall, good stuff, but really wish there was a better way to the train station, and cheaper (or free) Wi-Fi.
Staff was really pleasant and friendly and always had a smile on their face and went out of their way to help in any way possible.
Breakfast was close to 15 pounds a day unless you pre-paid then it was 10.

Small room but incredibly comfortable bed.
Pros:Close restaurants, Quiet
Friendly place with helpful staff. Food in two restaurants good. Room was quite small but immaculate and the bed was wonderful. Good for one person but would get crowded with two or more. I would definitely stay here again.

Good experience, but would not repeat
My stay at this hotel was an excellent experience, with the exception of one glaring issue. When I arrived, the desk clerk took my credit card and attempted to place an 'authorization' on it (presumably for expenses incurred during my stay). The card was refused twice, and I got it back. I went on about my business, chalking it up to a banking glitch of some sort.
After I arrived back in the States, I found my card had been blocked by the issuing bank because of two large transactions attempted by the hotel - one for over $200 and the other for more than $300. I was unable to use my card at all until I physically went to the bank itself and explained the situation.
This concerns me for a number of reasons - for one, the hotel didn't explain to me how much they were trying to 'authorize'. Had I known they were trying to authorize such large amounts, I would have taken the card back immediately. Second, the fact that my card was blocked put me in a minor financial bind. Had I not had enough cash on my person at the time, it would have been difficult for me to get back home.
Needless to say, I will not be recommending this hotel to anyone for any reason.

Once burned is all it takes
Room was quiet and comfortable, room service was very good. Two major problems, though: Check in was very slow - was told there was a 15 minute wait to get a room open, and had to wait nearly an hour. The second and biggest concern was the block placed on my debit card courtesy of two 'pre-authorizations' requested by the hotel for a total of over $$$. I wasn't able to use my card even when returning to the States...had to stop by my bank and straighten out the situation with their Fraud Department. I don't know what sort of policy requires a hotel to 'pre-authorize' a debit card for hundreds of dollars, but I do know that I will not be staying at this hotel again.

Expected More from Crown Plaza....
Check in slow...common areas good...room a bit ratty...no hot water....changed rooms to a queen which was not a queen and not updated...too tired to change again. Cost was good, but will not stay again.
