I recently stayed for 4 nights in a ‘Superior King Balcony Suite’ Pros: Great location, walking distance to the ferry terminal and main tourist strip. Friendly staff. Cons: Staff couldn’t actually help with issues. I had a broken shower with very poor water pressure which I videoed and complained about on three separate occasions. A front desk staff member came to my room to video for himself and agreed it was a problem. It was not fixed during my 4 night stay, I was told there was no spare room to move to, no offer of any other solution or compensation. I had to go to a nearby salon and pay to have my hair washed after a day on the Barrier Reef. Noisy location with no earplugs provided- not ideal when busy touring to go out and look for some to buy. Dirty, old carpet squares in the 8th floor corridor, smelly, similar scent to cat urine. Banging, hammering and drilling from 0830am onwards directly above my room (noise recorded) despite signs stating these works would commence after 0930am. Upon check out I was not asked how my stay was, probably because the staff know how bad the place is. In summary it’s not up to basic standards and is overpriced.
Broken old fashioned shower arrangement. Bath spout ran at the same time as the shower resulting in poor water pressure.

I had a fantastic experience staying at Pacific Hotel Cairns. The location is perfect — right in the heart of the city, close to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile

The stay was fine overall. The room was small but worked okay for just two nights. Nothing particularly special, but it did the job. The best part is the location, it’s really convenient if you’re planning an early Great Barrier Reef tour since it’s close to the port.

The property was very clean. Very close to the Reef Fleet Terminal for boat trips. There are many restaurants in the area. You can go walking. Friendly staff. We arrived early at the hotel, and they stored our luggage in the lobby so we could go out and explore the area before our actual check-in time.
