Stayed November 2021. Good location close to Muddy's Play Ground and the Esplanade restaurants, not far from the Reef Terminal either where you'll get on for any Barrier Reef Tours. Nice rooms with modern look, air con good which is essential in the humidity of Cairns. (lifts look a bit aged though probably on the list to update next). All your linen and towels changed regularly, staff helpful and friendly addressing any issues you have quickly.

Great place. Clean tidy , there is parking . Close to centre of town to walk everywhere. I don't like walking so yeah it's close
If we didn't loose our park on sat night would be 5star rated. So limited carparking when it's busy. It is worth staying here 100%

Wonderful place to stay. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are serviced daily with free WiFi. The hotel is located right on the esplanade and straight across the road is a fenced park for the kids. Room was clean, neat and tidy and although we didn't have the best view and the door was a bit difficult to open, it was still nice to sit out on the balcony of an evening
There are heaps of restaurants within easy walking distance, and a woolworths 15 min walk away. I definitely recommend Muddys Cafe across the road to the left for excellent burgers super close by.
