The Spotlight on Crowne Plaza Hotel Orlando Downtown By IHG

Your Downtown Orlando Base for Concert Nights

Modern and spacious, the Crowne Plaza Hotel Orlando Downtown By IHG puts concert-goers right in the action. Located in the vibrant heart of Downtown Orlando, it’s just minutes from major venues like the Kia Center, Camping World Stadium, and Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. With sleek, oversized rooms starting at 329 sq. ft. and thoughtful in-room amenities like wet bars, Keurig coffee makers, and microwaves, this hotel is all about comfort and convenience.
The hotel also offers a complimentary shuttle within a 3-mile radius, making it even easier to catch your favorite show without the parking hassle.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’ll love how close you are to Orlando’s biggest music and entertainment venues — many just a few minutes’ drive away. The hotel’s free local shuttle makes getting to gigs a breeze, and you can grab a bite or a drink before or after the show without leaving the property. The rooms are well-soundproofed for a quiet night’s sleep, and the late check-in time (3 PM) is perfect for travelers arriving the day of a show.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for roomy suites and a central location
- Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list concert
- Couples turning a show into a weekend retreat
- Fans who want to unwind in peace after the encore
- Budget-conscious music lovers who want value-packed features

Food and Drink Options

Hungry after a late show? No problem. The hotel offers in-room dining for relaxed post-concert meals. The Bite Bistro & Wine Bar serves up full meals and craft drinks, while the lounge and poolside patio are perfect for light bites. Breakfast is available, even if you sleep in a little after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more of a chill zone, you’re just minutes from Orlando’s bustling nightlife scene. Bars, lounges, and clubs are all within easy reach — and the shuttle can help get you there. Prefer low-key? Enjoy a glass of wine at the hotel bar or take in the downtown views by the pool.

What People Say

Guests love the generous room sizes, especially the suites with full kitchens and soaking tubs. The location gets high marks for being close to the action yet peaceful at night. Reviews frequently mention the friendly staff, cleanliness, and the usefulness of the free local shuttle.

Areas for Improvement

Parking is available but not free, which some guests noted. The surrounding area is urban, so while it's central, it might not have the touristy feel some travelers expect. Still, most agree the location is worth it for concert access.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to a concert in Orlando and want a spacious, well-located hotel with great amenities and a quiet place to crash after the show, the Crowne Plaza Hotel Orlando Downtown By IHG hits the right note.

Amanda, Jacksonville, visiting BackBooth

Liked: It was very clean and convenient :)

Very Good - 4.0 out of 5

Keneth, Ocean View, visiting The Ballroom at Church Street

On the whole the hotel was pretty good. Rooms were fairly clean (need a little more cleaning of the corners of the bathrooms). Because of construction around the area it was very hard to find the entrance to the hotel. The hotel should put out some signs telling one how to get to the front of the hotel. Breakfast was decent but overpriced, paying $30.00 plus tip for breakfast for 2 is entirely too much. This is my review and I'm sticking to it.

Liked: It was close to where we needed to attend the wedding. Staff was OK but not super friendly - a little aloof. Really liked that I could call and have my car at the entrance when it was needed.
Disliked: Although the valet guys were great I think it's ridiculous to have to pay for parking at a place were you are already paying to stay. You also need to put in Tempur-Pedic beds.

Gregory B, Wesley Chapel

Too much money for such a noisy place.

Liked: Good service; clean; great shuttle service.
Disliked: Too noisy to get a good night's sleep. Right off I4.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Andrea, Lake Park

I booked two rooms for my daughters and myself. We were attending the ballet Saturday evening and wanted a nice hotel close to the venue. When we got back from the Firebird Ballet my daughter's room was filled with smoke. Apparently their room was next to the service room and some of the staff had been smoking in that service room and the air duct directed it into their room. We asked for another room. We were given a room on a floor where a loud party was going on! The front desk was very unhelpful. Manager said they were trying to keep "that kind of thing" under control. Apparently this is not the first time staff was smoking and probably not the last. I am in negotiation now with my credit card provider. I will not pay for these rooms and the service we got. It really did upset us and put a damper on the whole weekend. Unhappy customer .

Disliked: I will never stay at Crowne Plaza Hotel again.

Gregory, Tavernier, visiting Addition Financial Arena

Stylish as higher priced hotels I've stayed. Much of decor looks cheap though. They could probably charge more if they retrained their staff.

Liked: Valet?
Disliked: No mini bar; hard matress.

Anne, Hutchinson Island, visiting Kia Center Orlando

Liked: Great front desk, bar staff, beds, TV. Offered a free concert shuttle.
Disliked: Balcony doors locked for insurance liability.

Amy, Clearwater

Prepaid for a suite and they gave away my room, and it was my 1 year anniversary. Then it took them till 2:30 the next day to put me in a suite, which had no towels or wash cloths - they told me they would comp the night they gave me the wrong room which they did not, and they are far from a 4 star hotel - more like half a star. I travel for a living and by far the worst place I ever stayed - if I had not pre paid I would have clearly went elsewhere. Would never recommend them.
