Beautiful old school hotel. Close to everything. Nice breakfast, good facilities. Rooms were fantastic for families and very well equipped with lots of extras. Balcony, 2 fridges, coffee machine, microwave. Check in was quick and easy - room was ready early. Staff very friendly. Parking was easy and free. Cannot fault this hotel and would stay again if going back to Cairns.

Expedia website indicated airport shuttle was included. The hotel called for a taxi, but we ended up footing the bill! Also noted that there was no attendant in the lobby one of the evenings there -a couple travelers were trying to check in but couldn't reach staff. Staff who we encountered were very courteous. The room was fine, but there was no safe which I feel is necessary especially in a city. We did not use the pool or go to the restaurant so I cannot comment on those.
