I was really let down by my stay at the Crowne Plaza. The initial impression from the beautiful lobby quickly faded when I encountered various issues with my room, which felt much older than I expected. While the location is decent and staff tried to be helpful, the overall experience didn't meet the standards I was anticipating from a Crowne Plaza hotel.

Rooms
5.0
The room was outdated and somewhat rundown, making it feel less appealing. I struggled to close the bathroom door once inside, and overall, the room quality did not reflect what I usually expect.
Service
7.0
The service was friendly, and the front desk staff handled my complaints well, even waiving fees when I checked out early due to issues.
Location
6.0
The hotel is close to downtown, set on nice grounds. It feels like it could be a great venue once upon a time, but it seems to have lost some of its charm.

Facilities

The property has a lovely lobby that is inviting but lacks the modernization one would expect in the rest of the hotel.

7.2/10

I found this hotel to be a lovely retreat, tucked away in the heart of Asheville. The facilities are quite extensive, offering not only three pools and tennis courts, but also a spa for a bit of pampering. The breakfast was a highlight, providing a nice alternative to local restaurants. However, the experience was marred somewhat by the staff's lack of attention during an important delivery that went missing, which impacted my event. Overall, it's a beautiful location that could use some improvements in management.

Rooms
7.0
The rooms were spacious but could have been cleaner. I was a bit surprised by the state of cleanliness considering how well-maintained the public areas seemed.
Service
5.0
I encountered some issues with staff coordination, especially regarding a lost package, which was frustrating. They seemed overwhelmed at times.
Location

The hotel is conveniently located close to downtown Asheville and attractions, making it easy to explore the area.
Dining

Breakfast offered a great variety, and I particularly enjoyed the made-to-order omelets. However, I found the restaurant's menu quite underwhelming for other meals.
