The Benson Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay. The room was spacious and loved the view from our balcony. Room service is way beyond our expectation, room is restored everyday. The location was perfect and close to shops. We enjoyed the pool. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Cairns."
