Crystalbrook Flynn
"Everything was fabulous. The only feedback we would have is that we thought the room service plates should be covered. We were in a lift full of people and there was a plate of uncovered food in there. We had a fabulous stay, the room was amazing and staff wonderful. Would defo stay again !!"

Pacific Hotel Cairns
"The room was very spacious with a lovely view, it really could do with a facelift, a bit worn and outdated, as we were there on Saturday night, there was very loud street noise until late, but not other nights. But, the location certainly made up for it! Actually got to see the Cruise Ship Carnival ..."
