I always use the Hotel hopper bus service. It's £9.00 for a return or £5.00 each way. I use the tube from King's Cross to LHR.
You can now pay as you board the hopper busses using credit/debit cards now, they are not not just cash or pre-paid tickets any more.
For the Crowne Plaza, I find getting the hopper bus from T2 is the quickest. The Crowne Plaza is still the last stop though going away from LHR. It's the second to last pick-up when traveling back to LHR though (the Park Inn is the last stop) and T3 departures is the first drop-off at LHR.
I've never actually tried the hopper bus from T3 though.
