Crowne Plaza Terrigal Pacific by IHG

Crowne Plaza Terrigal Pacific by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful hotel. Friendly staff. Was upgraded to the top floor with an ocean view when I checked in. Room was stunning. Big bed. Spacious bathroom. Right on the water with a lot of amazing restaurants close by. Nice to see a hotel maintain some of those classic "luxury hotel" elements like the gigantic revolving door in the foyer. Beyond impressed. Would book again anytime I was close to the area."
