Although it is far from the city center, there are many playgrounds, including three pools, so elementary school students can play all day. You can cook your own meals in the room, so I grilled some Aussie beef steaks I bought at the supermarket on the gas stove in the facility and ate them. You can get to the city center by bus, so you don't need a taxi. I would like to visit again.

Anonymous UserI chose the Pullman Hotel for my Cairns trip this time, and overall, my stay was quite pleasant. The hotel's location is very convenient, close to the pier and major attractions in the city, making dining and shopping incredibly easy. The tropical garden design gives it a real vacation vibe, and the pool area is lovely; lounging by the water during the day, enjoying the breeze, was incredibly relaxing. The room was spacious, bright, and well-designed, making for a comfortable stay.
However, minor hiccups are sometimes unavoidable during travel. We encountered a small issue during our stay: an item went missing from our room after housekeeping. I was indeed a bit anxious at the time, as losing something while traveling can definitely dampen one's mood. Thankfully, Manager Lin from the hotel was very attentive upon hearing about the situation. She followed up promptly and efficiently, handling the matter with sincerity, and the issue was quickly resolved. This kind of timely and thoughtful service made us feel very reassured and highlighted the hotel's commitment to guest experience.
Overall, the Pullman's environment, facilities, and service are all top-notch. Although there was a minor setback, it was handled expertly, which in a way made the experience feel more humane and personal. Cairns is already a relaxing place, and staying here made the entire journey even more perfect. I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Cairns.

Asha92Cannot recommend Doubletree and it's staff enough. After spending several months in hotel accommodations throughout the cairns region, this hotel takes first place by a long shot.
From the warm cookie at check-in, to the stunning gardens and presentation, the room was spacious and very clean. Every staff member was friendly with truly standout customer service (a rarity nowadays)
The manager on duty Luse went above and beyond to assist us, we will be raving about her and her staff to everyone we know for a long time. Not a single fault, and we will most certainly be returning as soon as we can. Thank you to Luse and the staff for a memorable and standout experience, if I could select more than 5 stars I would.

My husband and I had a great stay at BreakFree Royal Harbour! We were pleasantly surprised by how close we were to all of the spots we were wanting to visit. When leaving the ground floor, you exit right onto the Esplanade! I’ve included a picture of the Ferris Wheel view from our window!

JockeyladBeautiful well appointed room with comfy bed and pillows. The location is pretty good with amazing views of the estuary and mountains, albeit partially blocked by a cruise ship.
Nice cafe/restaurant and the breakfast was spot on.
Wasn't interested in the casino, so can't comment. The pool area is decent and has a Luke warm spa attached.

りんごどんThis place is perfect for long-term stays or for those renting a car! ♥
I stayed in a room with a kitchen and washing machine because I wanted to cook with local ingredients in Cairns. There's a Coles (supermarket) nearby, so I had no trouble finding food and drinks.
The glasses, cups, cutlery, pots, rice cooker, and various cooking utensils were all perfectly stocked.
🤗 Things I brought from Japan for the kitchen:
↓
Chopsticks, plastic spoons, forks
Salt, pepper, herb salt
Yakiniku sauce
Dressing (small convenience store size)
Wakame soup (instant)
Wasabi
Cooking oil
Mentsuyu (noodle soup base)
Dish soap
About 20 small garbage bags for food waste
About 20 plastic bags that can hold two 2-liter bottles
Alcohol wet wipes (25 sheets) *Can be used for cleaning
Things I didn't particularly use:
↓
Plastic spoons and forks
🥲 Things I wish I had brought:
↓
Sponge
Steel wool
Instant miso soup (I had it ready but forgot to bring it 😣)
👙 Regarding the Pool 🌴
There are 3 pools, one of which is heated.
Please bring towels from your room.
Regarding Trash.
There's a trash disposal area near the entrance. No sorting is required, so just put everything in. 🫙🥫🍎🐟️
🚘️ Regarding Parking 🚙
The rule is to park wherever there's an empty spot. What if there's no space? (lol) It was crowded, but I managed to find a spot.
🧺 Regarding the Washing Machine 👕👖
I brought gel laundry detergent pods. I did laundry twice during my 5-night stay.
There wasn't a dedicated place to hang clothes on hangers, but I managed to dry them somehow. There were some drying options, but not enough. I think there were about 12 hangers in the room.
At check-in, there was a Japanese staff member at reception, which was a great help. 💆
Reception hours are Mon-Fri 7 AM - 7 PM.
I forgot the weekend hours. 😓
*As mentioned above, early check-in is not possible, so for those arriving early in the morning, I recommend staying one night at a hotel that offers early check-in.

ShiyidexingfuWhen I checked in, the room wasn't ready yet, but they gave me three complimentary drinks, which was a nice touch. The koalas at the rainforest sanctuary were beautiful, and it was really fun getting to pet kangaroos and snakes.

Guest UserThe location is super convenient, just a few minutes walk to the seaside promenade. Getting to the pier is also a breeze, about fifteen minutes, and you get to enjoy plenty of ocean views along the way. It's also very close to Cairns city center.

Cairns Central Plaza Apar**ent Hotel is located in the city center. The surrounding environment is quite good. It is close to a large supermarket (across the road), the train station for traveling to Kurland Forest (5 minutes walk), and even the cruise company for visiting the Great Barrier Reef is only 15 minutes walk. It is really convenient. There is a kitchen with all the kitchenware. You can cook delicious food, enjoy the scenery, and take beautiful photos. It is so beautiful. I want to book it again, maybe next year...

Guest UserThe Mantra Hotel has outstanding location. It is directly in front of the Woolworths supermarket - the best option in central Cairns. It's also virtually opposite (the esplanade side)the lagoon public beachfront swimming pool. Finally it's just a 5 minute walk from Cairns Cruise Terminal, with outstanding day trips to Green Island, Fitzroy Island and the Reef. I booked a sea view room. When you enter the room, you don't see the ocean, but a building across the road. However, the view from the balcony was amazing. The balcony overlooks the main features of lagoon on the sea front. During the day it is great view - the lagoon pools and sea in the background. At night you cannot see the sea (as to be expected) but you have the amazing lagoon lights, which makes it very desirable and even romantic. Our room was at the end of block, which overlooks a shopping mall (no car noise) - looking right from the balcony is the lagoon view and looking left is a mountain view. However, from 2:00pm to 6:00pm the sun comes directly into the balcony area, which means it unusable until sun sets. Of course if you don't mind baking in the sun on the balcony, this is not really a concern. The room itself is pretty basic. The mini fridge of OK and TV has domestic channels only - no cable TV for BBC/CNN. The bathroom is of a good size. There is combined shower & bath. However, when using the shower, it can slightly flood this bathroom. A shower curtain may be desirable because the glass panel is not sufficient enough. At $225 per night this hotel was not cheap and you can better deals by coming in the off-season OR going bit further down the esplanade, and choosing another hotel. The Mantra does have its own pool and it is wonderfully heated, with normal deck chairs you would expect at 4 star hotel. However, the pool gets very little natural sunlight, because it of its location between 2 buildings. Overall, the hotel has amazing location, and it is still recommended, despite the shortcomings mentioned. My final note: When we checked in, I was impressed with the level of service provided by the receptionist. She had a very welcome attitude and a wonderful personality.
