Very friendly and helpful staff. It's an old property so decor looks a bit dated but most of the modern facilities and conforts are still there. Location is excellent, close to city centre and reef terminal. Overall, really enjoyed my stay here and def will stay again should I visit Cairns again

Great hotel smack in the heart of the city - a short 10 mins ride from the airport, the hotel is surrounded by great eats/drinks, supermarkets, museums, shopping (Cairns Shopping Centre is just a leasurely 10 min away), the esplanade and, importantly, a quick 5 min walk to the reef fleet terminal - starting point for a host of the water sports activities Cairns has to offer.
Check-in & check-out took just a min with very spacious rooms, offering all the creature comforts of home together...

A very good and convenient location, right in the heart of the City. Easy to walk around and find transport. Lots of eating places around. A very historical building.

Upgraded to their amazing suite on level 3. Absolutely loved it, quiet, safe and has great tropical vibes. Kind services, allowed a late check-out when I fell ill over night, and used their facilities since our flight out was at night. Shower, towels and luggage storage all conveniently provided. Very grateful and appreciative of their services.

The location is great! The hotel has 2 entrances, one facing the Esplanade,and another facing Abott Street which is parallel to the Esplanade. So pickups by local tours can be from either entrance. The reception is at the Abbott Street entrance. There's no way to get to the reception from the Esplanade unless you have a resident's key. There are eating places all around, a Woolworth supermarket a couple of blocks away. The apartment I booked had a clothes washer and dryer - essential for after...
