    As a Priority Club Gold Elite member I am entitled to complimentary breakfast at any IHG hotels.

    When I arrived here in the morning for my complimentary buffet breakfast I was pleasantly greeted and offered several tables of choice, but, I selected the smaller table for 2, since I was here alone on business.

    The Veranda Café at the Crowne Plaza National Airport Hotel was great for my complimentary buffet breakfast. They offered fresh scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, a variety of cereal, yogurt and even a nice variety of fresh fruit. I left with a banana in hand.

    I could have ordered from the menu, but, I was quite satisfied with the buffet service.

    Fair vegan breakfast available

    I was traveling for work and got the breakfast buffet. I was meeting a co-worker and the buffet opened at 0630 and apparently when I showed up at 7:30am the place was PACKED and people were leaving. The place had 2 staff, one leisurely cleaning off tables, eventually. I bussed my own and after about 10 minutes got silverware and another 10 got some water and coffee.
    They had vegan hot oatmeal, whole apples, some cut up melon, and I asked and the potato slices were cooked in oil not butter so I was good to go for $14.

    Staying at the Crowne Plaza and eating with colleagues instead of going out into town.  Service was prompt and courteous; all in our party ordered burgers, but I was served the wrong one.  As it was similar and done to the level of cooking I has requested, I did not send back.  Atmosphere was nice and quiet and had a good time chatting with colleagues.  Was a good burger, but I'd rather get a correct order the first time.  Would recommend as an option to consider if staying in this hotel.

    I came here after seeing some great reviews, and I was not impressed. This is a typical 2-3 star hotel breakfast buffet, and the cost per person was ~$14! Definitely not worth it!

    What you will see: packaged cereal, packaged syrup, scrambled eggs, small round pancakes, baked goods, bacon, etc. I had a veggie omelette made to order and the omelette had no flavor. The veggies weren't even incorporated into the eggs. They were more of an afterthought.

    The waitress was good about refilling our drinks, but towards the end, told us their credit card machine wasn't working and asked for cash before even trying the card. Who carries cash nowadays? The waitress said she'd try the card machine again, and lo and behold, it worked, thankfully. Will not come again.

    If you want a below par breakfast worse than IHOP, come here.
