“The hotel occupies a prime position near the Esplanade Lagoon, placing guests steps away from Cairns' vibrant heart. Rooms are modern, though some noise issues have been reported; the rooftop bar is a highlight, despite mixed opinions regarding the prepaid breakfast system. In my opinion, the location and cleanliness are hard to fault.”
