DoubleTree by Hilton Cairns
"It was a lovely stay. Staff are friendly. The room is spacious but the toilet is pretty small and confined. A welcome cookie (even heated!) at check in is delicious 😋"
YHA Cairns Central
"First time to stay in the hostel with random people, but it was okay. The bathroom was clean. I shared a room with six ppl but it wasn’t bad. It would’ve been better if there are more plugs in the room. There weren’t enough plugs and had to charge phone at the edge where is far from my bed room."
Crystalbrook Flynn
A chic and social luxury hotel that embodies a lively, energetic spirit, offering glass-panel pool views and trendy dining spots right on the bustling Esplanade.
Hotel Tropiq
Showcasing a laid-back, mid-century tropical design, this boutique hotel boasts a stunning resort-style pool area that serves as an oasis for budget-friendly travelers.
Novotel Cairns Oasis Resort
"The rooms were clean, but very small with low ceilings. Upon arrival, there was only one small carton of milk in the fridge, perhaps because the room was prepared earlier, for which I'm very grateful to the front desk staff. A big plus is the hotel pool, which has a sandy entrance on one side. However, the pool is shallow, so adults need to be careful not to scrape their feet on the rough bottom. Late check-out is available for an extra fee, which is very convenient if you're traveling with children and have a late flight. The airport is just 10 minutes away. Cairns Aquarium is nearby, and there's a large shopping center three blocks away. The promenade is two blocks away. Overall, it's good value for money, but don't expect perfect cleanliness or service."
Ramada By Wyndham Cairns City Centre
"Very dated rooms. Clean but badly in need of a renovation. Certainly nowhere near the 4 stars advertised. Location is good but I would not stay again. Better value elsewhere"

Caravella Backpackers
"Very clean simple rooms, pool looked nice, great indoor/ outdoor kitchen well equipped. The staff were all exceptionally nice, had a great family feel. Towel included, no hidden fees for luggage storage or anything else, which is rare these days. Short walk into town, cafes nearby, right on the boardwalk. 10/10 would recommend."
Cairns Queens Court
A privately owned, budget-friendly boutique property that offers a comfortable mix of traditional hotel rooms and self-contained studios, all within easy walking distance of the city center.
The Benson Hotel
"The room was spacious and well-equipped with a microwave, cutlery, and a fridge. It's super close to both the ferry terminal and Cairns train station. There's a breakfast spot right opposite the hotel and a supermarket nearby, perfect for grabbing bread to heat up in the microwave. The front desk staff were really helpful, even assisting us with booking a taxi. The laundry facilities were fantastic, with large washing machines and dryers. Just a heads-up, the hotel doesn't provide slippers or toothbrushes, so remember to bring your own!"
Mumma's Hostel Cairns
"I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Cairns! Mummas has such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, with clean facilities and awesome common areas where it’s easy to meet people from all over the world. It instantly felt comfortable and made my time in Cairns even more enjoyable. A special thank you to Thomas and Camille at reception. They were both amazing throughout my stay always smiling, approachable, and genuinely happy to help with anything. Their positive energy and excellent customer service really make Mummas stand out. I highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Cairns. Great vibes, great people, and an experience I’ll definitely come back for! 🌴💙"

Gilligan‘s Backpackers Hotel & Resort
"cute Hostel sometimes loud, but its a partyhostel so its alright"
Mercure Cairns
"no blanket, too cold"
Cairns Harbourside Hotel
"Nice location, nice views. Reception could be more friendly. No smiles or anything, they mentioned they sold our room when we arrived late even though it was all pre paid. Why would you mind if someone comes on time or not when you've got the money for the room? Is it like earning double if no show? We finally got our room , but the first impression always matters! Otherwise it was a good stay."
Park Regis City Quays
"Amazing service at the counter. Julieta was the best. The room was super clean and tidy."
Motel Nomad
"Motel room was tidy bed was comfortable Shower needed cleaning properly Handy to events we attended"
Palm Royale Cairns
"We booked extra nights at this hotel as plans went awry but the hotel accommodated us and allowed us to stay in the same room and not switch."
Reef Gateway Apartments
"This is a little gem, not your run of the mill hotel accommodation, the management really went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated. It’s by no means your upmarket hotel style accommodation, but it’s clean, quiet and close to town. Full kitchen, great size bedrooms and did I mention the complimentary snacks.. Will definitely be staying here when we are in Cairns next. Thank you "
Cairns Southgate Hotel
"quite poor service and hygiene. never ever try it again. maybe worth 5 dollars per night. the reception doesn't reply all the time. very ridiculous and unacceptable."
