Rydges Esplanade Resort Cairns

10/10 Excellent
"Honestly for the price it was excellent I am not sure about the lower rooms but I went for the executive ocean queen room and the view was stunning. The building on the outside is run down but the inside is good the rooms are clean and the food from room service was actually really good. For the price I was super happy and would stay here again when I come back. Bathroom etc not modern but clean and what I needed. Staff were friendly, I understand the other reviews however go for the queen ocean room and its fantastic value for money"
