Reception was friendly. Towels and blankets obviously quite used and have stains. And I am 100% sure I forgot my charger in the room when checking out, but the staff insisted that they didn’t find it. So either they do a very bad job at cleaning up the room, or the cleaning staff kept it.

We stayed at Coral Tree Inn twice, first time a first floor room (no lift so be prepared to carry bags), second time a ground floor room (much easier). Rooms were basic but certainly adequate. Beds were comfortable. Hot buffet breakfast was included and was excellent. Good range of foods and plenty of it. Staff were excellent and always very helpful.

Beds very uncomfortable. In the situation I had the staff was not helpful. The part of town where most things you'll want to do is between a 15-20 minute walk

Was Ok. Clean. Central

The room was very small and I was hoping for a room with a bathtub, but should have made a special request for this. The balcony faced a awful setting of someone’s junk in a shed but I guess that can’t be helped.

Good central hotel

This hotel was fine for my brief stay in Cairns. Pretty central to restaurants and esplanade etc. Breakfast provisions were good and reception staff were friendly and helpful. Ironing boards needs to have foam underlay as ironing board imprint transfers onto clothes. Also my iron had obviously been dropped and was chipped across the top which I didn't notice at first but caused my clothing to become snagged. Needs to be replaced.

Short break in Cairns

Overall the the 3 night stay was good , however some guests seem to have trouble reading and following hotel notices around noise and disturbance times . Also first time ever that I have had a room with no bed side lights , only the main light switch by the door.

The hotel is extremely bare bones and they didn't have hand towels or wash cloths available. No elevator, no outlets for charging much of anything. The breakfast was nice but not included in the room cost.

Coral tree in

Sijainti oli todella hyvä. Hotelli oli siisti ja henkilökunta oli ystävällisiä. Vaikka aula kaipaa uudistamista, huoneet olivat riittävän tilavat ja siistit. Huoneista puuttuu lukuvalo, joten jos haluaa illalla lukea kirjaa joutuu pitämään kirkasta kattovaloa päällä.
