Mantra Esplanade

“Location was really convenient, close by to night market, Esplanade lagoon just across fr hotel, very close walking distance to the reef marina/pier, and Casino Reef just minutes away. Woollies is also just a street away, convenient if you are planning to buy groceries etc. Timezone is a great hang out place for kids if you are traveling with them, also easily accessible. The pool is actually a tad smaller than in photo but still decent enough for the kids to spend their time in. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Rooms are decent size, we got the 2 bedroom unit for 5 of us (additional bed requested), the air conditioning in these rooms were split system type so good if you like total control of air-conditioning use. Bed size were generous, we had king size beds in both rooms.”

“Good location. Facilities are not new but clean enough. When I go to Cairns again, I will stay this hotel again.”

“The staff upon arrival was most unhelpful. We arrived around 11.30PM on NYE for the first night of our honeymoon. When asked where the fireworks would be, the receptionist simply replied it would be on the Esplanade and we should follow the crowd... There was no information provided about amenities (pool, etc) and they did not give us any map or advice on activities to do around the area. Even though I mentioned it was our honeymoon in the booking notes, no effort was made (compared to other places where we stayed and had a bottle of sparkling waiting for us on arrival).”

“Great location, although lots of work being done around the hotel Spacious 2-bedroom Balcony”
