We loved our stay at the Cairns Plaza Hotel! Our apartment was spacious and clean, with a fantastic view and huge balcony. The location was perfect and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room had good amenities for a long stay, including a mini fridge, microwave, and kettle. Our only major complaint was the lack of an in-room safe. You can store valuables in the front desk safe, but they’re not individual safety deposit boxes like I’ve used in other hotels. Minor suggestions for improvement include adding a toaster and stating on the welcome sheet that ice is available at the front desk. Overall, we highly recommend the Cairns Plaza Hotel and would happily return!

Great location and reasonably-priced Cairns Hotel.

Very nice medium-sized hotel on The Esplanade about 3 blocks out of Downtown Cairns. Location is perfect. appears to be recently renovated, large room, comfortable bed, good WIFI and large flatscreen TV. Very helpful front desk staff and wonderful new pool.

Property is at a great location. We had the ocean view patio and it was great. Staff was very helpful and courteous. Less than 10 minutes walk from many dining options and the piers. Room cleanliness can be improved. Glasses, cups, etc., were not clean.

Мы брали люкс с видом на море и он прекрасен. Чистый номер с шикарным видом и всем необходимым. Расположен рядом с прогрулочной набережной и детской площадкой. Очень приветливый персонал в отеле и круглосуточная стойка регистрации. Есть стиральная машина и сушильная, что очень важно, когда вы в длинном путешествии.
