Pacific Hotel Cairns

Lovely hotel. Great staff. Rooms spacious and well equipped . Hotel near all sites and port for boat trips.

Nice clean room ..unfortunately toilet seat very noisy . Reported to receptionist on check out

I saw some reviews that made me question my choice to stay here, but we had zero problems (well, the bathtub faucet was slow (shower was fine) but I'm not going to get upset about that). Bathroom was very nice. Main part of room was excellent. We had room 902 and it was a spectacular view of just about everything. I do recommend the better/larger room because you get an excellent lania. We sat there for two or three hours and watched a wedding on the party deck of the Hilton a block away. Later spectacular fireworks (which I'm sure was part of the wedding), followed by birds nesting for the night in the trees of the psrk next door, and then the emergrnce of the five foot wing span fruit bats (who do scream at each other through the night, so if you're a light sleeper bring some ear plugs). One of the prime benefits of staying here is you're one block away from the Green Island tour operators. Green Islsnd is amazing. We did the Seawalk (don a helmet that allows you to breath normal, wear your glasses, keep your head mostly dry, and see reef life). We then went snorkeling and thoroughly enjoyed that. THEN we jumped in the fresh water pool and lounged around for a few hours before getting back on the catamaran to get back to Cairns. At the entrance to the jetty is a restaurant named Dundees (yeah, named after you know who). One of the most extensive menus we've ever seen. Try the Hop Rock (kangsroo you cook on a lava rock at your table), or the Crocodile Rock. We're 66 and 68.
