Oaks Cairns Hotel

Excellent location - ideal for short stay and solo travelling

Very convenient . Loved the rooftop restaurant .

Great location in the heart of the esplanade, restaurants and only a five minute walk to the marina. Rooms and common areas look fresh and well maintained. Helpful reception staff. Dined at the rooftop bar which had a fantastic view but service didn’t quite meet the friendly and accommodating nature of colleagues at reception. Overall a terrific hotel and would stay again.

Overall a very good stay. I arrived around 10:30am bc and staff stored my bags for me and then called at 1:30pm when my room was ready. The room was clean and well sized with a view over The Espanade and lagoon pool (which unfortunately was closed two days before I arrived). The Manager was kind enough to get me access to an adjacent hotels pool which was appreciated. Breakfast was included in my room rate and was adequate and given it was provided in the rooftop area was very nice. Staff were all friendly and helpful. My only issue was only one lift at the property and at times it was very slow. On one day it actually broke down which meant having to walk up and down stairs. Shame about the lagoon pool but alas.
