Shangri-La The Marina, Cairns
Fabulous location but no longer lives up to the 5 star hotel it should be and still charges. Being local, I would not consider this hotel again. Not well maintained and a smell that would appear to be grotty carpets. Not impressed, very disappointed

The cafe area was a little grubby and the pidgeons were annoying.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Cairns
Clean and great location separated by a small road from the esplanade. Staff was nice. Everything was satisfactory. The rooms are dated and worn out.

The breakfast was comprehensive, fresh and delicious and the staff were hospitable, efficient and polite. My room was clean and comfortable plus had a lovely view over the adjacent marina, water and nearby forested hinterland.
