I was originally attracted to the bowling and arcade entertainment but the arcade is very run down. Many of the machines do not work. I know it is run by a third party, but please don’t advertise something that you don’t have quality control over if it’s going to be a huge disappointment. The restaurant breakfast buffet is reasonably priced with lots of nice options like an omelet station and fresh crepes. The staff was really nice and helpful.

Stayed one night with family. Great pool. Amazing breakfast buffet. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Good location. Older building is showing its age. Bedding smelled strongly of bleach. Poor sound insulation between floors.

Does the HVAC work properly? Yes, indeed - kept my room at exactly the temperature I like, and operated almost silently. How's the water? Also excellent - double shower heads make this a winner as well. ALL hotels should be able to tick those four boxes - clean, quiet, HVAC and water - and the Crowne Plaza in Kitchener does those very well. Add the very friendly, professional, and responsive staff to the list - these folks are obviously proud to be here, and go the extra mile to make guests feel welcome and cared for. But - with those necessary comforts out of the way, what else does a hotel need in order to break through the two-star barrier and compete in the VERY competitive mid-range business hotel segment? A complimentary breakfast buffet goes a long way. $20.00 for the buffet at the Crowne Plaza is too much. Free parking on the premises is also a strong draw - but at the Crowne Plaza, you pay $12.00 per day - to park in an unheated garage in which I never saw more than six other vehicles parked. The neighbourhood feels very run-down. I saw more than one business with boarded-up windows, and there is nothing within walking distance to provide any form of entertainment. That's not the hotel's fault - but the Crowne Plaza is tired, and showing its age. My first room stank of cigarette smoke. The second was clean, but a broken light switch and very dim lightbulbs throughout could use a fix. Dented elevator doors don't lend confidence. Time for a renovation.
