Top Cairns Central Business District Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Cairns

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay in a fabulous hotel. Well located for everything and the pool side bar was very relaxing way to finish the day with clients."

Crystalbrook Riley

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, comfortable with breathtaking views. We stayed in the tower. Floor to ceiling windows are amaxing! View from the bathroom is incredible! If you're staying in the tower, the windows arent one way mirrored so make sure you close the blinds when in the bathroom area, especially at night lol The pool is great. The only drama we had was that on the last day, 30 mins before checking out, our door battery died and we were locked out of the room. 4 trips, 6 keys and 20mins later, they finally sent us a staff member to replace the battery."

Hilton Cairns

8/10 Good

"Great view with a waterfront balcony. Front desk crew were “ok”. The dining room staff were great. Breakfast buffet included a self-serve juicer which included beets, apples, carrots & more for fresh juice. Loved that - we don’t usually find that at most hotels. Location is great - just around the corner from many restaurants and the wharf. Entire area is very walkable. Hotel is mostly clean. Hallway tiles and room doors look tired but rooms are clean, bed comfortable and water hot. Enjoyed the great water pressure with the shower head provided. Very good experience!"

Park Regis City Quays

8/10 Good

"A bit dated and some parts need attention (the towel rack in my shower was holding on by a prayer, the taps have the chrome worn off) but I do think that’s reflected in the price and I think the value is fair. There was a laundry machine in the unit and Park Regis provided detergent for a one load which was a pleasant surprise and great after 3 weeks of travel. It’s moments away from the end of the boardwalk, which will lead you by scenic waterfront to downtown Cairns, the marina and the esplanade. I did try to book a trip with the front desk as their lobby is stacked with various pamphlets and has signs encouraging visitors to book with them but was told I was better off doing it in my own which seemed a bit silly. There was also an absolute stack of rules, including a $100 fee for lost hotel cards. I asked a few friends who work in hospitality and no one had ever heard of that fee being expected of a visitor. Overall a good experience but a bit shy of great."
