We stayed at the Edge Hill Tavern the night before our flight back home because it is not far from the airport. We arrived 2 hours early and the staff wasn’t bothered at all. They immediately checked us into the room. There were some struggles with the key system and they instantly gave us free drinks at the bar which was very very nice and courteous. As our flight left in the evening we asked for a late check out which was no problem at all! We were so impressed and exited about the staff as they were really friendly. The rooms are just perfect. You’ve got a good working AC a big TV with Netflix the bed is unbelievably comfortable and the bathroom was nice and clean. We were really happy during our stay as we were treated in such a good way! We would really recommend the hotel!

I just needed a place to sleep and shower while traveling for business. Very convenient and very affordable. Staff really friendly and was a pleasure talking to them. The only thing was the room smelt a little funny but got use to it after a while.

My family and I have recently stayed here to explore the rest of Cairns. Check in was quick and easy and our room was ready an hour earlier than expected. We stayed in a Superior Room (No. 459) which consisted of x2 Queen beds. The room was situated toward the rear of the resort with a smaller/quiter pool and a carpark to the rear. The room itself was spotless with enough towels / cleaning products for the family. The resort itself is covered in rich foliage and several swimming pools along with an Italian restaurant and flamingos a bar/restaurant which offers a wide variety of food. Due to my children having coliac diease the staff at both restaurant went above and beyond to cater to their needs, and both offer gluten-free meals. All in all we had a hassle free stay and the staff were extremely helpful and approachable.

“Resort” very out of the way compared to the things to do in town. Luckily we got a car and were able to go back and forth for relatively cheap, but can imagine the cost would rack up if you were to use Uber the whole time. 24h front desk service and we got an extra towel when we asked for it. The outside area and pool looked really nice. This is clearly where the money has gone, though because of the weather we weren’t really able to make use of it. The rooms were very basic and rather old. Nothing impressive. Made us second guess why it was called a resort. Finally, I’d you get a room overlooking the pool, you’ll get a beautiful view but quite a trek to get to the room as you have to walk around the entire building (room access is on the outside) .

This campsite is closest to the city. Probably therefore, it is a very busy site with not a lot of space between the campsites, although it is not too bad at all. Unfortunately, we were put on a spot that is probably the roughest in the campground; uneven, triangle shaped, with the water hookup quite far out and poor wifi reception. It was however quite photogenic since a huge true was hanging over it. Campground's got nice amenities and a nice pool but just 6 poolbeds to go around, which are of course continuously in use. Don't get me wrong; we did have a nice stay but were just unlucky with the site I guess. It was a 30 to 40 minute walk from there to the downtown Cairns-area.

Stayed 1 night owing to its location to rental car pound and airport. Dropped car off at rentals, walked back to the hotel. Our room was ready, even though we were early, no problem, very welcoming receptionist. Room had everything we needed - but it overlooked the main Highway. We ate in restaurant that night, perfectly adequate, very helpful waiting staff. Asked hotel to arrange taxi for a 4.30 pick up. Taxi arrived on time and dropped us off at the airport. Everything went well, apart from the noise. The road is very busy till late and internally someone near to our room was having shower/bath late at night and the plumbing seemed to go right through our room.
