Rooms mouldy,damp and very smelly. The bed felt damp.The bathroom is old and covered in mould. There was spilt food in one of the lifts when we returned from Dinner about 10pm and when checking out the next morning the food was still in the lift. We advised reception and we were told " We'll get around to it" (not... More

During a recent stay, I discovered the greatest advantage that Rydges Plaza has over the many other hotels in Cairns- Its central location. You can walk to virtually everything that matters in the Cairns CBD, including the Esplanade. We stayed in a 10th floor room- recently rennovated. Its was very comfortable and well appointed, with a contemporary decor. The bed... More

We were staying here for a little over a week for a relaxing 10 year anniversary celebrations with our 2 year old daughter. First thoughts of the building online and from walking into the reception were great. It was a ideal location and good service for the price but from the moment you walk into the elevator there was a... More

Check in was easy with good service but the room (and the hotel in general) smelt very mouldy and damp - almost overpowering. Room was very tatty with missing tiles in the bathroom, filthy... More

Tried to arrange car parking but there was pay parking directly outside hotel and we were able to park outside of... More

Dirty ceiling, tired broken plastic fittings in the bathroom. The bed seemed clean. I was over the pool and a night club. Both were noisy. They do have an updated TV/internet/power supply on the desk which was great for charging devices though.

I'm sitting in my room right now, contemplating how a hotel could let itself go this much? The bathroom is covered in mouldy tile grout, and honestly makes me scared the roof is going to cave in due to the condition of the bathroom. Going to call reception and ask to be moved.... I wonder if all the rooms are... More

Hotel located a few blocks from the beach and dining areas. Rooms basic with some older style bathrooms. Good views toward trinity inlet and the. Roof top pool on one side - other has glimpses of the bay. Breakfast was good - no scrambled eggs
