Crowne Plaza is a great little hotel on the beach of Garapan. The staff is super friendly and the hotel is well put together, with a lot of restaurants, pools, and activities. We've stayed here several times before. The rooms are starting to take a beating since the renovation during COVID but they remain pretty nice with super soft and comfortable bedding.
The laundry room is great but expensive. $5 cycles per machine but all detergents included. An easy card swipe gets the job done.
The gym is actually pretty nice, with 4-5 treadmills, I think some steppers, 2x cable machines, three adjustable benches, dumbbells up to 50lbs, a rowing machine, mats, some kettle bells, medicine balls, and Swiss balls
We enjoyed some discounts at the in house restaurants. Guests get a 15% discount at the Terrace and Mari Bar has a "Golden Hour" where food/drinks are 25% off 5-7pm.
The only disappointing thing about our stay was the beach parasol issue. They were repairing them during most of our stay so we had to beg to get one put out. Also, Garapan continues to decline in shops. I hope the economy comes back because Saipan and Garapan used to be amazing.
Crowne Plaza is still a great place to stay, especially if you're looking for a no frills, beach getaway but still want a touch of class.
P.S. we stayed in May and Garapan hosts an international food festival every Saturday in May. Food and entertainment was pretty good and a spark of life in Garapan.
