This is an amazing hotel, perfectly located with very nice rooms. The restaurant on the roof has a great view and feeling and is awesome for a snack and a sundowner. I travel through Cairns for work quite often and even when this hotel has no rooms available i go there to the rooftop restaurant to relax. The staff was very helpful with certain documents i required and everything was seedless. Definitely recommend.
