We wanted to book the hotel for our anniversary based on the reviews on TripAdvisor, and that they had a special for the weekend. When we called, the hotel was all out of the $600 for 2 nights specials, so we upgraded to the deluxe room special with jacuzzi tub and fireplace. It also included dinner for two and breakfast each morning. Now it was up to $800 for 2 nights. Still not bad, right?

Well, the rooms are tired. I'm all for a Bed and Breakfast type setting, but the carpets were dirty, the desk and coffee tables had many, many rings and stains on them, and the bathroom just wasn't clean. Toiletries were never replenished either. One of the TVs (of course the one we wanted to watch) didn't operate properly. The fireplace was a small unit that had no charm, certainly nothing you'd want to curl up in front of.

The hotel also has a spa, another reason we chose it, but it ran out of amenities when we went there, including towels! As for dinner, we had lobster ravioli (obviously from the freezer) and tomato and mozzarella salads (very under-ripe tomatoes). My wife had tenderloin stir fry for her entree (about as good as the corner Chinese restaurant) and I had blackened salmon (over cooked is an understatement). As for breakfast, almost as good as a chain hotel lobby buffet, but not quite.

I know everyone else loves this hotel, but I can't imagine why. We're certainly not world travelers and don't have sky-high standards. We just want a clean room, a decent meal, and for everything to work.

A few outside rating agencies gave the property 4 stars/diamonds, this too boggles our minds! Try the place, you'll see!

We fell in love with this hotel because of its website. We were promised pampered luxury and although the room was very nice, the food didn't live up to expectations. We bought a food voucher with the room as part of the package persuasively marketed on their site but the waiter made us feel like second class citizens for having it and it only covered half of the meal. We also had an 18% service charge added to the whole amount and didn't get very good service.Breakfast was ok but not as good as advertised. The lady behind the front desk was very helpful though and gets top marks and the cheese and wine between 5 and 6pm was a nice touch.

The Crowne Pointe Historic Inn & Spa is perfectly situated in the heart of Provincetown, MA. It is within walking distance of the shore, local sightseeing excursions such as the Pilgrim's Monument, and the quaint streets of downtown with its abundance of shops, art galleries and fantastic restaurants.

Our deluxe room was beautifully decorated, extremely clean and the king sized bed was downy and inviting (and judging by how quickly I fell asleep every night, I'm certain it was sprinkled with magic tranquilizers.)

It was conveniently equipped with wi-fi and plenty of electrical outlets, a flat screen TV with DVD player and best of all, a deep jacuzzi tub! (Complete with rubber ducky)

We splurged on a couple's massage at the Shui Spa on day 2 of our stay and as a testament to the therapists' talent and the ambience of the establishment, we were rendered absolutely useless for the remainder of the day.

Unfortunately we never did partake in the Bistro's offerings but that's only because of how much fun we were having in town and how little we wanted to be held down by solid plans of dinner reservations.

The staff, very accommodating, also seemed genuinely happy. I can only imagine that such a beautiful work environment does wonders for the soul!

It was a treat to stay in Provincetown during the "off season”. What it lacked in lush window boxes and seasonal delights, it more than made up for in tranquility, the beauty of empty beaches, and in the personal service of every establishment we were in.

this place is great, food, room, spa were all better than we expected. Everyone at the Inn was friendly and helpful and showed us where to go for fun and tourist attractions. We enjoyed all our meals especially in the Bistro at night. We will be back over the summer.
