Nice room basic amenities. Unfortunately the room got very hot and to have the window open meant listening to the hotel fans humming all night.

Don’t visit!

Hotel was dirty. Food from bar sent back as the sandwich had no filling. Dead bugs on the stairs and on the window sills next to the table in the restaurant. Hot breakfast was in fact cold. Don’t visit - certainly not worth the money and like no other Crowne Plaza that I have visited.

The hotel was fine but we had a terrible night sleep because of noisy guests. We booked this hotel rather than a budget alternative to avoid this type of behaviour. I’ll choose somewhere else next time.

Highly recommended

Couldn't really fault our stay in any way. Reception were very friendly & courteous & particularly happy to help which was very welcoming. Breakfast service was also first class. Would certainly recommend this hotel if staying in Sheffield. It's about a 15-20min walk to the city centre.

Enjoyable stay.

Had some food from the bar menu and enjoyed it. Bar service a little slow with one pint poured badly. Service improved as the evening went on. Room was very comfortable although tv looked like it was about to fall off the wall. Aircon was working thank god. Breakfast was plentiful but a mixture of cool, lukewarm and hot items wasn’t the best but was starving so powered my way through it.

Outstanding stay, excellent food and staff

Recent investment has clearly raised the standard throughout the hotel. Facilities look refreshed and well maintained. Staff were exceptional — friendly, professional and attentive. Some of the best service we’ve experienced; every team member we met went out of their way to help. Evening meal was very good and clearly made from fresh ingredients. My wife and I both had the steak: cooked perfectly and served with proper home‑cooked chips — a real treat. Parking is safe, convenient and easy to access, which made arrival and departures stress‑free. Because of this experience we’ll be visiting Sheffield more often for both leisure and business. Our colleagues and I now plan to use Crowne Plaza Royal Victoria Sheffield as our preferred hotel while working in the city. Highly recommended for quality accommodation, excellent service and reliably good food.
