Crowne Plaza will make its return to Port Moresby in July 2019 with the opening of the Crown Plaza Residences.
Designed to provide a home away from home for business travellers to Papua New Guinea, Crowne Plaza Residences Port Moresby will feature 54 elegantly-styled 2- and 3-bedroom units, as well as an all-day dining restaurant, bar, a gym, and meeting facilities.
With construction nearing completion, the Crown Plaza Residences will re-enter the market in July 2019.

In recent years Port Moresby has been economically booming, with substantial growth in construction of housing, office towers, shopping malls and commercial establishments. Its waterfront area has been completely redeveloped with apartments, restaurants and shopping centres, and sporting facilities were upgraded significantly for the 2015 South Pacific Games and the 2016 FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup. A large Convention Centre was built and the Jacksons International Airport was redeveloped in 2018.
Port Moresby is the largest city in Papua New Guinea, and the largest city in the South Pacific, outside of Australia and New Zealand, with a population of more than 450,000 and growing quickly. It’s the main point of entry into PNG for air-traffic and most of the boat traffic.
