"Nice poolside staff helpful handy location "

"Brilliant stay, lovely hotel and really big rooms. Lovely view, and was a pleasure to stay there. The staff were brilliant and we had a lovely stay. Would recommend it to anyone"

"Get the breakfast . It is excellent . Nice hotel in a great spot to get to laces like the marina , aquarium and night market "

"The hotel was very good and the location cannot be beaten. Covered parking and lots of restaurants nearby were very convenient. "

"Didn't order breakfast, room clean but needs to be refurbished. Ironing board had no padding hence needed to put towel under to allow clothes to iron properly. Cost $22 to park the car. Much better places in Cairns, probably won't stay again same price or below. Bed and pillows comfortable. "

"Staff were great and location was good. "

"The were two curtain tracks in the first room we stayed at, but only one fabric curtain. This was not a problem on the first night (although it is nice when curtain tracks overlap so there is not a gap where the curtains meet). On the second night, it was a problem as several very bright bursts of light came through the curtains throughout the night - bright enough to wake me up when I had dozed off. In our second room, there were two curtains - one made of blockout fabric and one sheer. A much better arrangement."

"Very clean room and comfortable beds."
