Here we are again, at this classy and elegant hotel next to beautiful Yarra River. It's been a while from our last stay so it was exciting to come back. Our Premier KIng room was huge ( 45 square metres ) and had a million dollar view of the city, Yarra River and Bay. From 27th floor it looked gorgeous,... More

We have just returned from 5 nights of absolute luxury. The room was everything we had imagined and the view was spectacular. We were on the 19th floor with views to the City and to the Bay, perfect. We paid the extra for the Executive Club Suite and we weren't disappointed. It is worth the extra to use the facilities... More

My husband booked a surprise and impromptu three night stay at Crown Towers for the Mothers Day weekend. Neither of us had stayed before although we had talked about it often. We were both so excited about staying there but I have to say in the end I was left feeling quite disappointed. Upon entering, the lobby oozed luxury. The... More

Dear Rosie, Thank you for your comments after your recent stay at Crown Towers. While it was a pleasure to read of your impressions of the lobby, room and pool upon arrival, it was disappointing to see that we failed to meet your expectations in several areas during your stay. The housekeeping concerns and delays for your arrival and departure... More

Considering this is supposed to be the upper echelon of Crowns rooms I felt the Studio Room was more in keeping with a standard room at perhaps the Ibis. Yes the ensuite and cloak rooms are well appointed, the bedroom itself was small and the view looking onto the roof of the car park is hardly aesthetically pleasing nor in... More

Recently we stayed at this iconic Melbourne hotel to attend a major event and were very impressed. The spacious rooms were extremely well appointed with a 'dream' bathroom, super mini bar and great views over the Yarra River and city.

Hotel reams of class and quality - excellent room size, bathroom was impressive. Very modern and a good alternative to the Langham which I frequent regularly. Crown Towers better than metropole. South Bank I think has peaked a little, time will tell.
