Good central hotel

This hotel was fine for my brief stay in Cairns. Pretty central to restaurants and esplanade etc. Breakfast provisions were good and reception staff were friendly and helpful. Ironing boards needs to have foam underlay as ironing board imprint transfers onto clothes. Also my iron had obviously been dropped and was chipped across the top which I didn't notice at first but caused my clothing to become snagged. Needs to be replaced.

Coral tree in

Sijainti oli todella hyvä. Hotelli oli siisti ja henkilökunta oli ystävällisiä. Vaikka aula kaipaa uudistamista, huoneet olivat riittävän tilavat ja siistit. Huoneista puuttuu lukuvalo, joten jos haluaa illalla lukea kirjaa joutuu pitämään kirkasta kattovaloa päällä.

Stay was great, if the check in desk had been open between the advertised hours then it would have been perfect. However being greeted by a sign ‘shut for 30 minutes’ when the desk closed in two and a half hours later was disappointing.

Great value location hotel

Super location for town and sea front. Staff super helpful. Breakfast good choice. We were there 5 nights, some of that time was a bit noisy from doors closing early in the. morning or late at night, or people chatting in corridors on the stairs/wake up alarms going off. I use ear plugs so not a huge issue. (Hotel provide these in the rooms too) Definitely needed the aircon to cope with the humidity.

Mediocre hotel sadly.

We arrived at 6.30, reception didn’t open until 7.00, we had to wait outside for 1/2 hour. Check in wasn't until 3 pm. We had breakfast, which wasn’t great. 20 dollars PP. we stayed by the pool for a bit, the sun beds were so uncomfortable. Pool was nice and much needed as by 9.00 it was so hot. There was seating in the shade. We left our luggage and went for a coffee, we got notification that our room was ready a bit earlier. No concierge to help with the luggage, the lady on reception carried them up the stairs for us. Our room was clean, beds were comfortable. We had a balcony that had a grill around it and it overlooked someone’s bin yard which stank and a garage/workshop area. Needless to say we didn’t/couldn’t use it. No complimentary water and we had to pay 3.50 a small bottle . Very basic hotel, no bar, no cafe. Only breakfast was catered for. We found some nice restaurants just along the road, the Japanese, just a short walk away on opposite side of the road and the Greek ‘Fettas’ a bit further 10 min walk
