The hotel was in a very good location

The hotel was in a very good location as it was in walking distance of town/esplanade & lagoon one way then to the Pier the other way. All staff were very pleasant and helpful especially the Information centre at the hotel. They had good local knowledge which was much appreciated when it came to anything you want to see or do

The room we had was beside a "power" room/cupboard and was quite noisy. Apart from that it was ideal for those few days in Cairns.
