Two swimming pools, one lagoon styled, offer a luxurious experience for the budget-friendly rate.

Cairns Queenslander Apartments

Cairns Queenslander Apartments provide a reasonable price for what it offers. Facility is only ordinary, there is no Wi-Fi. As Cairns is a small city, it is about 1.5 km from the Cruise Terminal or CBD. I did not try its restaurant. But the staff there are very friendly and helpful. Anyway, if you don't want to spend more than $150 a night for a family, it is an good option. If you are looking for romance out of your holiday, go find somewhere else.

Price-to-quality ratio was acceptable.

Price-to-quality ratio was acceptable. The maintenance could be better: Light over the table did not work; ventilation in bathroom did not work; ceiling fan over bed was noisy. The plastic furniture on the balcony (2 chairs and a small table) had once been white but were now greyish from wear and weather - although clean. The plenty parking area at the hotel was great.

Friendly and helpful staff. Great

Friendly and helpful staff. Great location just a short walk from the waterfront facilities. Room was clean and in good condition. Beds were comfortable. We did not use the restaurant, but I spoke to people who did and they said it was good value. Overall, the place was really good value for money and I would recommend it to [website] guests.

This is not bad value for money.

This is not bad value for money. The lighting desparately needs to be updated - the room was a bit of a cave. Ceiling fans need replacing too. One in my room was just about to fall! Wireless needs to be improved. It's practically non-existent in the rooms.

I would reconmend theCairns Queensland

I would reconmend theCairns Queensland Apartments. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly. The service to the rooms was attended professionally and daily. The pool was inviting It was a little further out of the main centre than I realized, but Taxi's were readily availiable. Thank you.
