The room was fine and clean. The bar area was filthy there where a number of tables full of empty glasses rubbish and plates of half eaten food that nobody cleared away for over an hour. Service at the bar was slow only one person serving.

What we liked about the Crowne Plaza was that it was walking distance to the HYDRO where the Doobie Brothers were playing on my wifes birthday. The people were very nice except for the first night. Our paperwork showed we had paid for breakfast but theirs didn't. That was not our fault so it was either the Crowne Plaza's or Expedia's fault. We worked it out with the Hotel and still had one morning that there was a glitch and the last morning we left before breakfast was served. We paid for 4 mornings and only received 3. Our biggest mistake was signing up with Expedia. The Crown Plaza was great but not close to anything other than the River Clyde and the OVO Hydro.

Decent hotel but poor restaurant experience

Hi overall decent stay for 23rd wedding anniversary trip spoilt by what was supposed to be a special meal ....the service in the restaurant was very poor especially a hotel the size of CP. It started at maitre'd desk who said we didnt have a reservation....we made weeks before and also checked week before over the phone and also when we checked in. Then when shown to table it took staff over 35 minutes to take a drinks order. Food service was equally slow and restaurant wasnt particularly busy. Stsfc were not attentive and had to be chivvied along. Overall really spoilt a special evening. Luckily breakfast was self service and was as expected.

I enjoyed my stay at the Crowne Plaza. The king size bed was two singles or two small doubles pushed together which was a bit disappointing. Also, I found the food for dinner wasn't great. The chips were very dry and the burger was ok, but nothing amazing. I'd have expected more from a 4 star hotel for food... Other than that, I had a comfortable stay and enjoyed the breakfast in the morning.

The staff were awesome. They sorted out all of our issues we had with our rooms. The first rooms fridge didn’t work, so we got moved to another room. Then the aircon didn’t work in that room, but they had someone in hand to fix it right away. They even threw in some free drinks for the inconvenience.

Room not prepared for the number of people booked.

Our suite had a lounge with a pullout sofabed and a sofa. There was no bedding for the sofabed and only 2 sets of towels for the 4 people booked. Staff sorted it out and brought extra bedding and towels.

Stayed two nights, the room was clean and comfortable staff were friendly and accommodating. My only issue is the tea and coffee tray £350 for two nights to get two milks and two tea bags isn't really great I think the tray should accommodate to the night stays your staying. Overall great
