Customer review rating 4.0/5

Margaret Couples - 09/05/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The apartments living room, kitchen & bedroom were very spacious, however the bathroom was very cramped. The shower was dark, overall poor lighting in the bathroom. The toilet was in a very awkward position, not allowing a lot of room between it & the basin to use the mirror. Definitely only one person can use the mirror at any one time. The fridge door didn’t close properly.

After having difficulty booking with the app I called the hotel directly and they directed me to the reservation centre, after which it all went smoothly. Upon arrival we were upgraded to a one bedroom apartment. The staff went out of their way to to make us welcome and nothing was too much trouble for the duration of our stay. The location is ideal with close proximity to restaurants and an easy walk to Cairns city centre. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend the Hotel.

I was super happy to get an upgrade thanks! I feel like if you aren’t going to stand on the front desk you should get a bell. The room was fine, but could use some updating. The walls need some attention and the blinds need to be replaced.

Great property, not so great room

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

marysalabutova 09/04/2021 TripAdvisor review

The place was great on the outside, the amenities were great too and the view.. magnificent! The room was really average though, I would not rate it as being 4.5 star... especially the bathroom - it was dark and lacked ventilation. However I believe it was worth what we paid for it, i just hope there are better rooms in this hotel. It has a great potential - i do recommend it because of the location, price, service and views!

Dear marysalabutova, Thank you for your lovely review, I appreciate your feedback and will address your concerns with the team. We have many different rooms at the property. We would love the opportunity to welcome you again in the future. Sincerely, Odette General Manager
