Bottom Line
The 210-room Crowne Plaza at Grand Boulevard is located in a restored train depot from 1912, and the interior reflects this history, featuring dark mahogany moldings, brick walls, a grand chandelier, and plenty of natural light from skylights. Despite these details, the overall feel is definitely that of a mid-range property. Rooms have generic decor, but floor-to-ceiling windows and white linens make them feel bright and fresh. Amenities include a guest library, fitness center, and two restaurants, but some guests complain about train noise and lack of direct beach access. The business center, and the downtown Pensacola location near both the Civic center and the airport, appeal to business travelers.
