Top beach near Cairns Central Business District Hotel Reviews

Crystalbrook Bailey

10/10 Excellent

"The property was quite nice! The cooling system was inconsistent from room to room in the two bedroom apartment. It was not able to be regulated by the thermostat. Otherwise we loved the apartment and the facilities. The staff was genuinely kind and helpful."

Crystalbrook Flynn

8/10 Good

"property is in a great location. We stayed in the Esplanade Tower, and the room was spacious enough for two people for a short stay. The bed was large, but it consisted of two mattresses joined together, with a noticeable gap in the middle that made it uncomfortable. The balcony was very small, not particularly clean, and the outdoor chairs were old, worn, and uncomfortable. only bath towels and hand towels were provided—no face washers. pools are undercover, so they receive no sunlight, and the area was quite breezy, making it too cold to swim during our stay. The whiskey and gin bar was closed on most days, and the breakfast was average. Reception staff were polite but provided only the basics during check-in and check-out. On Sunday morning at approximately 6:25 am, the emergency alarm sounded, requiring a full evacuation. Guests, including elderly people and those with limited mobility, had to use the stairs from upper floors. Once outside, there were no staff providing information or direction, and guests were left waiting for nearly an hour without updates or guidance on when it was safe to return. Eventually, people made their way back inside without any communication or apology. lack of communication during this incident was disappointing. lifts were also very slow, often delayed because housekeeping staff were using the same lifts as guests. staff at the bar were good. Overall, the stay was satisfactory. Several Areas of improvements required."

Pullman Cairns International

10/10 Excellent

"This is a really nice hotel that was a pleasure to stay in. Our room was large with a great view. The bed was very comfortable with good pillows. The bathroom was spacious and I really liked the Bigilow shampoo and conditioner. We thought the breakfast buffet at $35 was a really good deal. Large variety of items and an omelet bar and juice bar. The pan of scrambled eggs was a little weird tasting—entirely made of eggs? But everything else was great. Overall completely happy with this hotel. Very convenient location and very plush inside."

Oaks Cairns Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Overall a very good stay. I arrived around 10:30am bc and staff stored my bags for me and then called at 1:30pm when my room was ready. The room was clean and well sized with a view over The Espanade and lagoon pool (which unfortunately was closed two days before I arrived). The Manager was kind enough to get me access to an adjacent hotels pool which was appreciated. Breakfast was included in my room rate and was adequate and given it was provided in the rooftop area was very nice. Staff were all friendly and helpful. My only issue was only one lift at the property and at times it was very slow. On one day it actually broke down which meant having to walk up and down stairs. Shame about the lagoon pool but alas."

Novotel Cairns Oasis Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We chose this hotel as the relaxation part of our trip, and overall it didn't disappoint. The resort itself was lovely, and we really enjoyed our stay. The only thing that let it down was our arrival. We were initially told that our two rooms would not be together, which wasn't acceptable as we had booked them back in December. After a lengthy discussion, the staff were able to find us two rooms in the same block, which we appreciated. We also experienced an issue with our room keys. When we returned to our room, we couldn't get in. The gentleman on reception wasn't particularly helpful and advised that the manager was on the phone and would be at least 30 minutes. We weren't offered any refreshments or an alternative while we waited, which was disappointing. After waiting around 30 minutes, I returned to reception to ask again, and the manager came over and replaced the battery in the door lock, resolving the issue. Considering this was the most expensive accommodation of our trip, we expected a smoother arrival experience and a higher level of customer service from reception. Despite these issues, we still enjoyed our stay and felt the hotel was a great place to relax."
