I visited and stayed for one night. What a fantastic highway exists up to Cooktown...a real surprise...! Sally on reception was super friendly - didn't get to use the gorgeous-looking pool. Staff at lunch and breakfast were friendly and welcoming. The room I stayed in was really nicely-appointed with a great shower and a fab modern look - totally not... More

Stayed in a two bedroom apartment and although the pool was lovely and front staff pleasant and always helpful, found the apartment dark and oddly furnished. Not my preferred place to stay.

We stayed two nights with our young children. After the long drive the huge pool was what we needed. The room was clean and spacious. Locations is superb within walking distance to everything.

Really enjoyed our stay at cooktown and sovereign resort ok but the two bedroom apartment we booked was disappointing expected a kitchen so I could prepare food for my children but only a microwave and no dishes to even heat food up in. Although free wifi had to do it from balcony as not in our room. Also don't know... More

After a long trip up to Cooktown, the hotel was a welcome surprise. We had expected something far less comfortable and modern; only because of the remoteness of the town. We took a 2 bedroom apartment upstairs overlooking the main street. Fantastic location and very comfortable. The restaurant was excellent, and another pleasant surprise.

The drive to Cooktown is quite a long way from the nearest big city but well worth a visit. The steady breeze here makes tempertures in North Queensland more bearable. A 2 or 3 night stay in the Cooktown is sufficient to see all the sights in the area

On arrival, we were given a warm welcome by the receptionist and check in was a very speedy process. The hotel did not appear to have many guests and it was very quiet. The room was clean and adequate. We enjoyed our cooling off time in the pool at the end of the day. As it was quiet, we had... More
