"Staying with a small child, having a room with a mini-kitchen was a lifesaver. The surrounding area was peaceful, and I woke up to the sound of birds in the morning. I also enjoyed a pleasant stroll along the beach, making for a fulfilling stay."

"Location is not too bad. Situated a 15 minute walk away from the waters and main restaurant area. Situated on a main road but quiet at night. They let us put down our luggage when we couldn’t check in yet and leave it there after we’d checked out and waited for our flight. The young female receptionist was very helpful and nice."

"The views are nice, and the facilities are ample, including free shared cutlery, kitchenware, a fridge, a swimming pool, and a yard. The only downside is there are quite a few mosquitoes. It's great for sunbathing during the day, and overall, it's pretty good for a hostel."

"The hotel's location is perfect, right next to a night market and within walking distance to the beach. The facilities and service were also great, though the air conditioning in the room was a bit noisy, which made sleeping at night a little uncomfortable."

"This was my first time staying here. Our room was directly above the terrace, so we could hear the lively chatter, which actually added to the travel experience in a fun way. I was a bit worried the noise might keep me from sleeping, but every night around 10 PM, it quieted down, and I was able to rest peacefully. I highly recommend buying groceries from the nearby supermarket and enjoying a meal on the terrace. Also, you can walk to the seaside promenade in about 10 minutes. It’s a safe location for a solo early morning stroll."

"This is my fourth time staying at Crystalbrook Riley on the Esplanade when visiting Cairns. It's a king of both looks and value for money! **Location is superb**: Right on the Esplanade boardwalk, just a few minutes' walk to the marina and night market, super convenient for catching boats to the Great Barrier Reef. I love strolling along the boardwalk, it's so relaxing! **Full of resort vibes**: My favorite is the outdoor pool with an artificial beach – sunshine, clear water, and sand, perfect for photos! There's also a safe shallow area for kids. **Breakfast recommendation**: The breakfast is extensive. You absolutely have to try sitting in the outdoor dining area, enjoying a delicious breakfast while overlooking the ocean. It's the perfect way to start your day energetically. **Thoughtful details**: The rooms are modern and minimalist, and the bedding is clean and comfortable. Overall, this is a luxury hotel that blends modern design with a tropical flair, suitable for both couples on a romantic getaway and families on vacation. Next time I'm in Cairns, I'll definitely choose Crystalbrook Riley again!"

Pullman Cairns International

9.1/10
Great
Guest User
The room isn't huge, but it's perfectly adequate. The twin beds were a bit small for two adults, making it a bit snug. Overall, it's a good place with an excellent location. You can walk to the Rainforest Train, the Great Barrier Reef boat tours, and catch a bus to Palm Cove – everything is within walking distance. Popular restaurants and the night market are also just a stroll away. Getting a taxi is super convenient too. They even have drinking water available in the lobby. The only minor issue is the soundproofing; you can hear the shower from the next room quite clearly. Housekeeping was great, and I'd still recommend it overall.

This hotel was the best I stayed at during my trip to Australia. Although the overall exterior of the hotel looks a bit old, it's still fantastic. The location is the best, right by the bay in Cairns. When you open the window, the fresh sea breeze washes over you, and you can see the coconut trees swaying outside from your bed. I never wanted to come inside when sitting on the balcony every day. The room facilities are also quite complete, although the bed is a bit soft. It would be perfect if it were a little firmer. The hotel's breakfast restaurant is on the first floor, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window while having breakfast. There's a wide variety of breakfast options, and the egg burrito is delicious. If I come to Cairns again, I will definitely choose Hilton Cairns again.

The hotel room was clean and tidy, well-maintained. The location is excellent, very close to the cruise terminal, making boat trips incredibly convenient. There are plenty of amenities nearby, so getting around and finding food is easy. The service was also great. It's a fantastic choice for a visit to Cairns.

Staying at Pacific Hotel Cairns for five nights was a very comfortable experience. The location is impeccable; everything from the pier and restaurants to the meeting points for day tours is within a five-minute walk, making getting around incredibly convenient. Although the room wasn't large, it had all the necessary amenities, was clean, and practical. The biggest surprise was booking a room with a sea-view balcony. On the first night, I arrived to find it was Cairns' 150th anniversary celebration, and I got to watch a fireworks display, which was a fantastic surprise! Overall, it offered great value for money. 👍🏻

Great location… 5 minute walk from restaurants, Lagoon Esplanade and Markets. About 1klm to Cairns Shopping Centre (including Event Cinema’s). Two bedroom apartment as travelled with friend. Each had our own bathroom and king size bed. Good to be aware that the main bedroom shower is over bath. It is quite a high step in/out. Just over knee height to step up to. Great pool. Up to 1.55m deep. Second kiddy pool next to main pool. Main also very good for doing laps if you are so inclined. Me, I preferred the sun lounges. Spent the afternoons at Lagoon Esplanade once the shade went over the pool. All meals were on the balcony to enjoy the fresh outdoors. I have stayed here a couple of times before and will continue doing so.

The unit is adequate for my family of six for a 3-night stay. Basic necessities are generally met, and the overall stay was acceptable. However, there were several maintenance and usability issues that affected comfort. Some air-conditioning remotes were faulty or missing batteries, requiring us to swap between rooms to find working ones. The telephone/RJ45 connection head was also broken and left dangling, with wiring not properly connected, which gave a poor impression of upkeep. In terms of sleeping comfort, the beds are quite soft and the pillows offer very little support. The positioning of the electrical wall outlets behind the bed also made it inconvenient, as we had to shift the bed forward to access the sockets. For kitchen use, it would be helpful to provide basic dishwashing supplies such as a small bottle of dishwashing liquid and a sponge, especially when only a few items are used in the dishwasher. On a positive note, the bathroom facilities are in good condition. Water pressure is strong and hot water is consistently available, which made showers comfortable. Overall, the stay was acceptable, but there is clear room for improvement in maintenance and basic guest amenities.

The room facilities are relatively old and the lights are dim. Slippers and toothbrushes are not provided. Shower gel and shampoo are of poor quality. The room was on the first floor and there was noise. It should be the sound of the air conditioner engine or other machinery. The breakfast is simple and does not provide the delicacies of various countries. It only has bread, fruits and some drinks. A separate deposit of 50 AUD is required upon check-in, or 100 AUD in cash.

The hotel isn't in the city center; it's located along the main road. Check-in was remote – they sent us a code for the main door and a safe containing our key. The rooms are a bit dated, and the cleanliness isn't top-notch, but overall it's okay. In the bathroom, the shower door was wobbly. Regarding breakfast, the hotel description states that vouchers are only for weekends, but in reality, they're available every day. Perhaps this is just for the winter period, I'm not sure. They provide AUD 20 per person for breakfast at a neighboring building. And let me tell you, that breakfast is divine! It's an à la carte menu, and we tried many things over three days, and everything was delicious. Of course, we paid extra, but it wasn't a huge amount. One day it was AUD 11, another day AUD 15, and for the one in the photo, AUD 24. Water is complimentary, coffee is AUD 6 – so you can definitely stay within budget if you skip the coffee. Also, behind the café building, there's a laundry service where you can wash and dry your clothes. It's AUD 6 per wash or dry. Nearby, there's a 'Night Owl' convenience store that was open when we arrived late, and a pizzeria next to it was also open, so you won't go hungry. The room really could have used a microwave. There was crockery, but we had to wash it in the bathroom sink, and no dish sponges were provided.
