I reviewed this hotel some time ago and feel that an updated review is necessary. I previously gave the Holiday Inn a thumbs up for probably being the best hotel in Cairns for business-people. I endorse that. My experiemce this time was even better than the previous one. The General Manager goes out of his way to make guests feel... More

Only had one night & arrived late. Was very disappointing to find absolutely no mini bar facilities in the room. Not even a bottle of water. U needed to call for it to be stocked, not what u feel like doing at 11pm at night. Next we went for breakfast arriving at 9.40 am 20mins before closing to find it... More

We had a King Ocean View room on the 6th Floor overlooking Cairns Bay and the Coral Sea beyond. The room was large with a nice balcony but bathroom was a little small. Hotel was set in a rainforest atmosphere with nice bar and restaurants. In walking distance to the shops and marinas of Cairns The staff and managers were... More

I had a short one night stay at the hotel post a fishing trip. I was simply looking for a hotel that was conveniently located and which was reasonably seeing I was checking in in the evening and checking out at 4am! I managed to book the room on the internet at an amazing price. I didn't expect much but... More

First of all I love the location along the esplanade and yet a little further away from the nightlife hustle and bustle nearer to the lagoon. Room was clean and comfortable if a little sterile. The... More

I agree with Jan S's comments that the 4.5 rating is misleading. We had a lovely stay - very friendly staff, beautiful views, and a nice tropical feel with well kept gardens in the atrium. Conveniently located with bus stop right outside the door. Expect a 3.5 star hotel and you'll be very, very pleased. I would highly recommend this... More

The location is fantastic on the northern end of the esplanade, so it is quiet yet walking distance to everything you could need. Our room was very clean, modern and comfortable, but a little small. We had a wonderful view from our room. 7th floor and ocean view balcony. Yes, water splashes on the floor when you take a shower... More

The hotel is well located and a block from the restaurant strip on the Esplanade, with a nice view of the Bay. The room was very clean and comfortable, but more like a capital city business hotel than a resort - only one arm chair, your partner will need to sit on the desk chair or on the bed. The... More
