Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a great experience overall. The location is convenient, close to the city area and the Esplanade, with secure parking and an abundance of amenities. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had all the essentials, making for a comfortable stay. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff always available. However, the unexpected closure for renovations was a small inconvenience that impacted our plans. The dining options were satisfactory, although some more variety would have been appreciated.
I had a lovely 5-night stay at Cascade Gardens. The family running the place was friendly and helpful. The room was well-equipped, but the 4 flights of stairs with luggage were a bit daunting. We bought a water jug for $4 which was a minor inconvenience, as we left it there. Overall, a nice experience with all the necessary amenities.
The hotel was decent overall, with clean and well-fitted rooms, fantastic staff, and a nice location in Cairns. However, the distance to the town center could be a drawback, and the dining options were limited.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms could do with a little modernizing as they felt a bit dated, but they were still large, clean, and equipped with everything we needed. The location was pretty close to everything, although a bit removed from the center of activity, and the staff were extremely helpful and accommodating. The dining options were limited, but the pool added a nice touch to our stay.
The hotel offers spacious rooms catered for apartment-style living, providing everything we needed. While the room was spacious, it lacked privacy from the pool area. The location is quite good, only a short walk to the commercial center and the esplanade. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to help us make the most of our time in Cairns by arranging early-morning taxi services and storing our luggage after check-out for our liveaboard sailing trip.
The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of downtown, making it a comfortable and quiet stay. The rooms offer great space with the additional bed in the lounge, ideal for a relaxing stay close to the center. Despite some housekeeping oversights, the service is friendly and accommodating, providing a wealth of local information. The location is perfect for exploring Cairns on foot, with a lovely pool and jacuzzi to enjoy. Dining options are limited but satisfactory, and overall, the facilities enhance the comfort of the stay.
