Pros: We wanted to be able to relax and unwind at our first destination in Australia, this was definitely the place, the pool was very relaxing and the sunrise on the marina side was breathtaking. They had our room ready and allowed us to check in early. They also had complementary champagne and chocolates upon arrival. They also upgraded our room to a higher level so we had a better view of the bay. The location is with in walking distance to everything, including the ferries at the marina. All in all one of the best parts of our stay was the staff, they were all so welcoming, accommodating and extremely pleasant (esp Kelly and Luke!). I would definitely stay here again.
Cons: pool furniture showed some signs of wear.

Pros: The staff were awesome; generally very friendly
Cons: This hotel is not representative of the Shangri-La group, and I struggle to see how it maitains a 5-star rating. The showerdid not drain properly, grit between the shower tiles is black in places, the fan is chipped, carpet stained, phone's "quick dial" buttons did not work, and the room is old and dated and sparsely furnished.

Pros: Amazing location walking distance from the harbor with many shops and restaurants within the same complex. Luxurious and modern rooms without feeling pretentious.
Cons: Breakfast service was $20 and most of the buffet choices were unappetizing; the omelettes and French toast prepared on request by the chef were pretty good but overall there are likely better options around Cairns. The pool was really nice but closed unusually at 8pm.
"This family-friendly Cairns hotel is located on the boardwalk, within a 10-minute walk of Reef Hotel Casino, Esplanade Lagoon and Cairns Marlin Marina. Cairns Convention Centre and Cairns Aquarium are also within 15 minutes. Cairns Station is 16 minutes by foot. "

Pros: Nice sized comfortable rooms. Friendly, helpful staff. Great location.
Cons: There was a little mold/mildew on the shower curtain, possibly due to the hot/humid climate but the hotel should change those more often. Wifi is good quality but relatively expensive at $25/day. The front desk hours are only 8am - 6pm so that's a consideration as well.

Pros: Location location location...within walking distance of the lovely waterfront with all the restaurants. The Concierge, Junko, was excellent putting together tours for us. The view from the 14 level was spectacular.
Cons: The buffet breakfast that came with the room was more than a "little tired." It was fast asleep. The pancakes and waffles were mealy and inedible. The so-called sausages were mini-hot dogs. The "to order" section was grossly understaffed so lines were long waiting for eggs to order.
With a stay at Park Regis City Quays, you'll be centrally located in Cairns, just a 4-minute walk from Cairns Convention Centre and 14 minutes by foot from Cairns Esplanade. Featured amenities include dry cleaning/laundry services, luggage storage, and laundry facilities. Guests may use a roundtrip airport shuttle for a surcharge, and self parking (subject to charges) is available onsite.

Cons: There is no way this is a 4-star hotel. My room was disgusting. The rooms was so outdated. The bed were clearly old and sunken in. The minute I pulled back the covers, there was a bug crawling around. I found several more little ants all over the dresser and a large cockroach. There is clearly an infestation problem. The bathrooms were so outdated and had mold in the grout. It took me 10 minutes of being in my room to decide I was leaving and staying somewhere else. It looked nothing like the pictures and was really disappointing.

Pros: The rooms were spacious, and the staff were nice.

Pros: The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the location is ok. The view is pretty good as well.
Cons: Evidently the room had just been "refreshed" however the bathroom was extremely dated with cheap metal fittings that reminded me of my early days in the Army. The layout of the room was bizarre to say the least so much so that you would have to turn your head 90 degrees to watch the TV from the bed. The air conditioning is pre-set to 25 degrees Celsius which in the wet season is not sufficient and the room is hot, this is not an acclimatization issue as we are from North Queensland and we found it oppressive to the point we had to have both the fan and air conditioning on at the same time to be comfortable.

Pros: Views were great both mountain view and ocean. Even nice location about 10 minutes to city center along the great esplanade.
Cons: Very very dated needs complete Reno. Plus they must not look up when they clean. All the vents and doors were sooo dirty We stayed in a two bedroom condo which could have been wonderful expect the furnishings were so old and made everything feel so unclean. Plus 6 nights and no new towels etc. wifi slow or non If privately own condos they shouldn't rent people's who aren't updated as $200 per night and it was 2 star only
