A Cozy and Relaxing Getaway in Cairns! As a traveler from the USA, I was looking for a cozy and relaxing place to unwind during my holiday in Cairns—and this hotel absolutely delivered. The service was exceptional—top marks all around. The staff were attentive and made me feel right at home. Cleanliness was also impeccable, with fresh sheets, fluffy towels, and spotless rooms throughout my stay. The food was delicious, with plenty of options to suit every taste. I also enjoyed the onsite casino, which added a fun twist to the evenings. One of the highlights was the pool area—it was never too busy, and there was plenty of space for lounging and soaking up the sun. Perfect for those looking to relax! Overall, a fantastic experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Cairns!

My partner and i absolutely LOVED the pullman reef hotel! We cannot recomend this property highly enough and would definitely stay again ourselves in the future. One of the loveliest things was being able to wake up each morning to being able to go down to the hotel's restaurant where we were able to choose from a variety of ala carte options plus a coffee and juice. The service was very quick and the seating is very private. We had tried almost everything on the menu by the end of our stay and the quality was just exceptionql. The breakfast was available as an add on extra when we booked our flights + accommodation package for a very minimal cost per person and we couldnt believe how much value we got for our money by adding it in! All of the pullman staff from check in to check out were so polite, helpful and professional - they all make you feel like royalty and the bellhop service was very helpful. The room itself was very spacious compared to other standard hotel rooms and had the most fabulous bathroom complete with a spa bath and a shower that had a long bench seat inside the cubile with plenty of space to put your belongings which was perfect for long, luxurious showers and would also be very suitable for guests with mobility difficulties. We loved the plush king bed with multiple pillow options, well stocked mini bar and small but cosy balcony. The free parking included with the room was very useful for the city area too.

Hotel should state that they are not family friendly. One evening we purchased drinks and sat down to watch the live entertainment but were told to leave as we had a 10 year old child with us and children were not allowed. I was shocked. Explanation from staff member was robotic and not her fault. We were so disappointed as we like live music and like to dance and sing along. Never went there again. Noticed that the place had zero atmosphere so not surprised if they scare off families like that from the entertainment area, what do you expect? One evening I saw a band singing to an audience of two people! Never going there again and will not recommend. We ended up spending our evenings over at Riley Hotel where they were more family friendly. Also went there during day to their family pool as it was nice and you could order coffee. Can’t order coffee to the pool at Pullman, only alcoholic drinks. Should have booked a different hotel. I am so annoyed as we spent a lot of money staying there for a week holiday.
