Coral Tree Inn ★★★★

📍 166-172 Grafton St, Cairns

"I had a great stay at the Coral Tree Inn in December 2025. I thought the location was perfect as it was a quiet area but still only a short walk to everything in Cairns. The staff were all really helpful and friendly. Their green scheme was a great arrangement, meaning I could get breakfast on 3 mornings which was good. I made use of the laundry room which was very convenient for a small charge."

"Staff were friendly and offered a good service, pool was too warm, minor I know, but when it’s 32deg and 90% humidity It matters. Our aircon leaked but the staff sorted it out quickly and no further issues."

Pacific Hotel Cairns ★★★★
"The perfect location and beautiful views at a reasonable price and with a quiet pool area and excellent restaurant. I noticed a few things around the room that could do with repairs but generally everything was still in working order. Perfect for anyone wanting to stay right in the city and explore."
