Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed here for 4 nights over the Aus Day long weekend in a double Hilton guest room. It was sufficient enough for myself, partner and toddler. The only down side about the room itself would be that the walls were really thin you could hear your neighbour showering or all the doors in your corridor slamming also bathroom not having a fan so it always steamed up during our showers. The daily cleaning was poor the second day they didn’t even change our sheets they just remade the bed with the same dirty sheets (toddler IYKYK) and floor wasn’t vacuumed. On the plus side we thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast buffet the variety of juices and smoothies were great, a lot of options of food to choose from however options didn’t really vary each day other than how the eggs were made. Location was great not a far walk from the lagoon n also the dock to catch ferries for day trips is right outside the hotel. The pool & gym facilities were great we used them everyday although there’s an eerie feeling to that side of the hotel I think they need to liven it up abit more. All in all we enjoyed our short stay here, nice and quiet and would stay here again.

The location is convenient as it's close to many restaurants and the ocean, but it does not look like a 5-star hotel, in terms of quality and service.

Overall quite and nice place to stay. Hot buffet breakfast was average, liked the swimming pool, have a spa but spa water was not warm enough. Digital key was not working properly, but was able to use physical Key instead. Good walking location to crafted beer brewing and city amenities. Close to reef casino.

The staff were very friendly and helpful! The location was perfect for me as i arrived at 12pm and had a trip booked to the great barrier reef at 1pm - it was a 2 minute walk to the marina and many restaurants to choose from afterwards.

Nice business hotel in Cairns
Enjoyed my stay. Standard business hotel in Cairns. Negative was the room service - overpriced and below standard. A pool bar with no bar, must order from QR - for the prices it would have been nice in a tropical tourist town to have a proper pool bar. But otherwise the room is great, quiet and comfortable. Would definitely consider staying again for the right price.
