“Tropical Queenslander Review”

The Tropical Queenslander hotel is located a fair walk from the Cairns esplanade and waterfront, which is the heart of the city. So, it cannot boast the best location in the town. Also, its neighborhood, while nice enough, is not as good as the top hotels. But what the Queenslander lacked in location, it made up for in value. We had a very nice room with great amenities. The hotel staff was excellent and set us up with some very nice tours and directions around town. We had free parking for the car. Internet access was available (reasonable rate, though not free). And they had two very lovely pools. All in all, just what I was looking for at a great rate.

“Perfect location”

Large,clean room. Nice swimming pool,friendly hotel clerk. Easy access to Esplande shopping and dining. Perfect location! We walked about 6 blocks to get to the malls. There is a car rental just 2 blocks away for easy pickups and drop offs.

“Nice hotel”

Little bit away from town but doesn't take long to walk into town and the views are beautiful. Very pleasant place to stay

“Could be better”

Tropical Queenslander is on the far north side of the city of Cairns and one block from the Esplanade. Reception desk has a 7:30 am - 8pm schedule which is very inconvienent for early arrivals and early departures. Hotel staff very helpful in booking tours and general service. Breakfast overpriced and average at best. No internet in rooms and very expensive, better off using computer in town.

“ok”

The hotel was about a mile away from the tourist areas. Access to the western part of the Esplanade was very close. There were many places to run fom that area if you knew where to look. The hotel was mainly quiet except that there seemed to be a lot of families living there long term (I guessed because of the proximity to hospitals?). So sometimes the children were a little noisy, but not too bad. Air conditioner was noisy but worked. Nice kitchenette. Overall clean but old. The front desk was not staffed after 8pm.

“Nice hotel, cheap, just about walkable into town.”

Hotel was good for the price. No complaints....

“OK, but a walk to town”

This hotel has facilities for cooking, but we didn't use them. It is a bit too far into town for a casual stroll. Either take a cab, or be sure to plan your day so that you need only to do one trip

“Good people, Dirty hotel”

Hotel personel was great-very friendly and helpful. Hotel room was dirty and rooms are only cleaned every 7 days.
