Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were top-class in terms of cleanliness but felt noisy and cramped due to limited views and basic amenities. The service exceeded expectations with helpful staff going above and beyond. The central location was convenient for exploring Cairns, although some areas needed maintenance. The dining options were basic even though the hotel is situated in a prime area.

The hotel is in a convenient location, close to the city center and within walking distance to the esplanade, shops, restaurants, and coffee shops. The rooms are spacious but could be improved with better tea and coffee facilities and window coverings for fresh air. The service is helpful and accommodating, although a communal kitchen could enhance the experience. The dining options are satisfactory but with early closing times. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money and is a great choice for exploring Cairns.

The hotel has a central location in Cairns, making it convenient for exploring the city. The rooms were not ideal due to noise from neighboring establishments and the uninspiring view. However, the service was exceptional, and the staff provided a comfortable stay. The dining experience offered a decent breakfast selection. Overall, the value for money was reasonable, with minor issues present.

The hotel's location is fantastic, very central to everything we wanted, and the staff went out of their way to look after us. However, the room's air conditioning was mounted too low blowing directly at us and the noise from the nearby night club was noticeable. The breakfast offered was decent, with a variety of options, but the dining experience was poor. The hotel's location, though, couldn't have been better.

The hotel is in a charming old-style Queenslander building, with a convenient downtown location offering off-street parking. The service was pleasant, particularly accommodating an early check-in request. However, the rooms facing the light well felt claustrophobic, and the lack of wine glasses and ongoing renovations were disappointing.

The key benefit is the downtown location with off-street parking, although the rooms lacked views and wine glasses, and the veranda was under renovation.

The hotel's location is excellent, with convenient transportation options nearby and surrounded by bars and a club. The rooms, while lacking some amenities and not matching the online photos accurately, provide a basic stay. The service is friendly and helpful, offering great suggestions for activities. The dining experience is subpar with limited breakfast options. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
