Crowne Plaza Zhangzhou

Over the years I have stayed a number of times at Crowne Plaza. It 's very good option if staying downtown, especially it just several minutes from Wanda plaza. The hotel is located close to where we need to be and the we love the rate for breakfast and parking. The hotel staff Cythina was friendly and helpful to handle my booking. Will be back again for future visit in Zhangzhou and recommend this place!

I had chosen Crowne Plaza as it is an international hotel. However, it was disappointing to some extent, especially the service. My reasons: - I was provided with towels that were unacceptable (see photographs). The big bath towel was so thin and torn. After I requested a change of towels, a towel provided was still torn. Again, I had to feedback and the more senior housekeeping staff came to hand me new towels and a plate of fruits. While I appreciate the gesture, more care should have gone into ensuring the quality of towels in the first place. - We saw two signs indicating 50% discount for laundry given the hotel's anniversary. When we enquired, we were told that the promotion had long ended. Upon further query on why they were not taken down, the front line staff said no one asked them to take down. When we left after two nights' stay, the laundry discount signs were still there. Misleading and disappointing guests, I don't understand what the hotel was trying to do. - As I was travelling with elderly parents, I had requested a handicapped room and a connecting room. Upon checked in, I was told that the connecting room was not available as there was occupancy. While I understand that not all requests could be accommodated, I had provided ample notice, i.e., the request was made at booking a few months ago. I did not have problems with other international hotels in China in this aspect and I wonder why not Crowne Plaza Zhangzhou. That said, I would like to thank the hotel staff who helped us with the vehicle booking and luggage.

I stayed in January. in the room was very cold. The air conditioning can't be used for heating. The first day was as cold as 17 degrees C. second day, I asked, and the hotel provided a portable heater. After that, was ok.

Very smelly , staff are very friendly but very poor in communication

It was most unusual that we had to pay in advance CNY1,000 when we checked in for only 1 night. Our room rate was CNY427. The following morning when we checked out, the CNY1,000 was refunded immediately and then we paid the actual bill. The lobby, elevator and room were clean and nice. Huge bathtub, spacious room. As our group of 8 checked in late, we had buffet dinner in the hotel. Most of the food dishes were almost empty but the staff were helpful in specially preparing dishes for us. The seafood was fresh but the steak and the other meat dishes of pork, chicken, etc were tough and inedible.

Great location and helpful staff. Rooms were very good sized, comfortable and highly recommend.
