Perfectly located and within walking distance to pretty much everything. Staff were friendly and extremely helpful. No housekeeping to rooms if stay is under 5 days (or at an additional charge if required). The only issue with this is that the bin fills up really quickly and there is no spare liner to replace it. Overall very happy with my stay and would definitely recommend.

It was a great experience for us as a team. The week was good.

Friendly staff. The room I stayed in was very dated and not really maintained

free parking is excellent the bed is comfortable the amenities is outdated the pool maintenance is disappointing

Full kitchen and washer/ dryer helped save some $$$. Staff was great. Location is perfect.

Loved our stay!! Close to shopping, food and marina.

We had a motel room, clean tidy, staff more then helpfully with our requests, we actually extended our stay.

We had a fantastic stay at Mantra Esplanade. The location right on the Esplanade is unbeatable—close to everything with beautiful ocean views. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. A perfect base for exploring Cairns—highly recommend!

location was excellent, shame about the issues with unauthorised people getting into the pool area ... inner city location

Spacious room. Everything was good.

Room was spacious and comfortable

The hotel was very good and the location cannot be beaten. Covered parking and lots of restaurants nearby were very convenient.

Quick check in, great room, clean, perfect location. Only issue door stop to close to toilet, we both hit it with our feet whilst using toilot, needs to be moved closed to door frame.

Our room 324 was antiquated and the shower/bath is very dated . On arrival we found it extremely difficult to turn the hand basin taps on and then off after using them to stop them dripping all night . No plugs in either bath or basin and we killed 3 cockroaches. We felt the room hadn’t been used for some time ? The bed was very comfortable but the balcony was cramped and the table wobbly and with weeds growing in the brickwork together with broken tiles. The TV cupboard doors inside were hanging off and there was a strange smell from ( we think ) the carpet The one big plus is the location, absolutely perfect and central to everything although the city view is not the best The maintenance man who came to our assistance was brilliant although there was little he could do at such short notice except to provide deodoriser for the smell . Fortunately none of the above spoilt our short break to Cairns.

Very nice room with a sea view from the balcony. The hotel is very close to everything in the city centre. Staff very friendly and helpful.

An absolutely amazing stay from start to finish. The service was exceptional — warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The view was stunning and made every moment in the room feel special, while the room itself was beautifully comfortable, well-appointed, and thoughtfully designed. Everything exceeded expectations, and it truly felt like a home away from home. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing experience.

Absolutely amazing from the service, view and the room. Definitely would like to visit again soon

No ocean view. Pool was nice.

The staff was great, but the location is even better. If you’re looking to do a snorkeling tour it’s a simple walk to the harbor. Also, because there are no great beaches nearby. The lagoon right nearby is perfect for swimming and the water temperature was wonderful. I will definitely stay here again when I return to Cairns
