Family trip
Great location, only 20 minutes from the airport and walking distance to everything else. Had a family room with a bunk bed in another bedroom which was great but the bottom bunk needed a good cleaning. Both bunks however had their own TV so the kids really got a kick out of that.

Amazing sea view
Nice clean room. Helpful receptionists. Breakfast was very nice. There is parking available. We did not use the pool as is had all shade in the afternoon. Close to town and many good restaurants. Good size room even for a family of 4. Would definitely stay again.

The staff were an absolute pleasure. They were friendly, helpful and prompt with all of our needs. The restaurant was reasonably priced and the food was excellent. Located about a 15 minute walk from the centre of town (Esplanade) did not pose any problems either.

Hotel needs a facelift.
The appartments are very run down and outdated, the parking should be included in the booking price.
The facility is becoming very run down and outdated, it is looking well upon its years and it’s not keeping up with other businesses within the region.
Although it’s in a great location as it’s near all Amenities shops, restaurants, sporting facilities, it’s just a shame it looks old.

Rydges on The Esplanade in Cairns is handy and can boast great views of the mountains and water if you select the right room. The full buffet breakfast and lunch options were great, as was the in-room wood-fired pizza! The pools were a bit cold and room a tiny bit worn out with a bed moving around somewhat. Otherwise the place is great.
Great location!!
