Me and my family have just returned from australia. In cairns we stayed for 2 nights only from 12th to 14th may 2013 and we really enjoyed there as we upgraded ourself to ocean view rooms on top level. The view was very unique and beautiful and the rooms were also very neat and clean. The view gets 10/10. The... More

My husband and I have just returned from a 7 night stay at this Hotel. When booking I advised the hotel that we were coming up for our 50th Wedding Anniversary and if possible could we have a high floor. On our arrival we found that we had been given a room on the TOP floor of the hotel (12th... More

Just spent 6 days in Far North Queensland after taking advantage of a cut price deal offered via Webjet of 5 nights at Rydges Esplanade Cairns. My wife and I had a "ocean view" double room on the 9th floor which worked out at about $120 per night. We had a great view of the harbour and great pool.The room... More

We were very disappointed with this hotel. When phoning the front desk 4 out of 6 times no one answered. We stayed 8 days and they would only grant us a late check out to 12:00 noon? Wanted to charge us $20 extra after that. The pool floor was not cleaned in the 8 days we were there and there... More

I go to Cairns every 2nd weekend, so I get to try out different hotels. I got a surprise when I booked a room on sale, to find it had a beautiful comfy king bed, in a large room, with an even bigger bathroom. The view wasn't great but the price and the amount of room, free shuttle into the... More

It is one of those times I would like to be able to give a 3.5 rating. It was not good enough for a four, but not quite as bad as a three would indicate. I stayed, I ate and ran a conference here. One of the most annoying things as a frequent traveller is inconsistency. People often question why... More

This is a very nice property. Comfortable, helpful, friendly staff. Nice bar and restaurant area. Pool with a swim up bar, too. The gift shop is a really good find, too, with good bargains. Rooms are comfortable and roomy. That was very welcome after the long flight to get to the Great Barrier Reef.

The view from the ocean view room is spectacular as is the view of the mountains from the hinterland view room. The rooms are slightly dates but clean & serviceable. The service is great and you can't go past the location.

Beautiful and big rooms with balcony, and beautiful view to the mountains, everything was nice and clean. No Wi-fi for guests in rooms what it's a shame, the wireless is charged for $15 extra only in the ground floor. Hotel bonito, grandes y amplias habitaciones con balcón. Vista a las montañas. Todo estaba limpio. No se ofrece internet wi-fi en... More
