Hotel should state that they are not family friendly. One evening we purchased drinks and sat down to watch the live entertainment but were told to leave as we had a 10 year old child with us and children were not allowed. I was shocked. Explanation from staff member was robotic and not her fault. We were so disappointed as we like live music and like to dance and sing along. Never went there again. Noticed that the place had zero atmosphere so not surprised if they scare off families like that from the entertainment area, what do you expect? One evening I saw a band singing to an audience of two people! Never going there again and will not recommend. We ended up spending our evenings over at Riley Hotel where they were more family friendly. Also went there during day to their family pool as it was nice and you could order coffee. Can’t order coffee to the pool at Pullman, only alcoholic drinks. Should have booked a different hotel. I am so annoyed as we spent a lot of money staying there for a week holiday.

This was a wonderful place to stay and visit the Great Barrier Reef. The hotel is perfectly located, with a 5 minute walk to the marina where all the tours begin for the Great Barrier Reef. The staff were so friendly and helpful in the most wonderful way, and a special thank you to Jacob. The restaurants and their staff were so kind, and the food ever so generous and delicious. Not to forget their amazing breakfasts, any meal will be a great start to your day of sightseeing. Our rooms were clean, quiet and spacious with a lovely view of the city. All in all a truly magical experience. Highly recommend staying here.

Very friendly and helpful staff. It's an old property so decor looks a bit dated but most of the modern facilities and conforts are still there. Location is excellent, close to city centre and reef terminal. Overall, really enjoyed my stay here and def will stay again should I visit Cairns again

Wonderful staff, very friendly and efficient. The rooms are spacious and well kept. Would come back to this hotel again.

Always a pleasure at the Pullman Reef

I was very happy with this hotel. The room was spacious with a nice view. The hotel breakfast was excellent. I had it every morning. The staff was very polite and helpful when I made requests. For example, I asked for a late checkout and they added an hour. The hotel was fully booked that day, so it was a very fair concession. The convenience of the hotel cannot be overstated. It’s close to shopping and numerous attractions in downtown Cairns. I had a helicopter ride one morning and it was only a 10 minute walk to the helipad. Next time I’m in Cairns, I will be staying here.

Everything is wonderful at this hotel APART from the breakfast. It’s a la carte! Who on earth has time to wait for that when you have tours that leave 7:30/8am. It’s impractical. We arrived and got a take away coffee 25 mins after getting there. Service is SOOOOOOOOOOO slow. They need to change this pronto. Ruined an otherwise 5 star hotel.

Great stay. Staff were great!

I found the bed very comfortable to sleep in. I also find it easy with the Vallet Parking. It just relieved the stress of looking around for parking.

All Hotel Staff Amiable, Friendly, Quick To Help & Utterly Amazing. Room Well Appointed & Clean. Easy Access To Many Areas & Transport.

Great hotel. Check in easy upgraded me without ever asking and I am not a special member. Good location if you were going on a dive expedition.

The restaurants

Very nice rooms, very helpful and responsive staff, nice outlook, good bed, street noise from yelling drunken people not so nice, two cockroaches one in the bathroom and one in the bedroom which I discovered the next morning. I terminated their lodgings.

Great location. Had problems trying to cast to the tv but other then that it was a great stay.

The room is really nice
