I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms are spacious and offer a balcony with a 'Double' bed, making my stay extra comfortable. The service was exceptional, with an after-hours manager available and great amenities like laundry service, welcome drinks, and tours/ticket assistance. The location couldn't be better, very close to the main shopping mall and Cairns central shopping center. The dining experience was superb, offering traditional Marche products. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything I needed for a pleasant stay.

The hotel is ideally located next to Kuranda railway, but be ready for some early morning noise from trucks. The rooms are spacious and modern with a double bed and a balcony, offering a great view. The service is impeccable, with an after-hours manager available and additional perks like laundry service, a welcome drink, and tours/ticket assistance. The dining experience, especially for eggs Benedict, is top-notch. However, the facilities could be improved.

The hotel is a gem! The rooms are cozy and clean, the staff is beyond helpful and kind. However, dining options were lacking in variety. The services offered are worth the stay, like the after-hours manager and tour assistance. The location is unbeatable, close to shopping centers and a quick walk to the Esplanade. The dining experience though not perfect was decent with fresh local vegetables. Overall, a great value for the money with lovely facilities like a pool.
