Crowne Plaza

Port Moresby


In the heart of Town, this concrete behemoth has commanding views from its nine floors of neatly fitted-out rooms. The standard rooms are modestly sized, but you could throw a party in the executive suites and apartments, which come with free use of the club lounge. There's a bar, informal cafeteria, and one of the best restaurants in town.
