We stayed here twice (before and after a trip to the reef). On the first occasion we were quite happy with the room (we got this at a bargain rate on ebookers). The room was clean and tidy and a good size, balcony was good, the pool was good also and seemed to be fairly quiet. The bathroom was a... more

We (my wife & sister-in-law) stayed at this hotel 4 separate times during our 3 weeks in Australia. Each time it was a last minute booking for $95 per night (plus the usual fee for a 3rd person) which was a great deal compared to other hotels in Cairns. This is a great value hotel a short walk from central... more

Located conveniently within walking distance to restaurants and the beach (that has limited swimming but is nice for sunbathing) this hotel is pretty incredible! The staff is friendly and helpful, the food is great and atmosphere is wonderful. Definitely my favorite hotel that we stayed at during our 2 week, 5 star tour of Australia. more

I stayed for two nights at this hotel while on holidays in North Qld. I had booked through a special online deal ($95/night) so compared to other hotels in the area, it was great value for money. The hotel itself is not too bad- but the interior of the hotel feels a bit old and tired- I found the hallways... more

Descent hotel although we could do without the slamming doors in hallways and chairs dragging on adjacent unit balconies late in the evening and early morning. We booked this hotel as part of a package deal and after realizing that plane tickets cost more alone than with the three night package, so we can't complain too much. Rooms are clean... more

We stayed in the Rydges Tradewinds for 6 nites in Sep 09. Although not our first choice of hotel the offer we found (GBP300 for 6 nites) made us choose this hotel. We arrived at midday and a room was available for us to check in, however, the first room we were given did not have a balcony so we... more

When I first pulled up I said to the taxi driver, "wow, can I afford this place?" The staff is nice and friendly, and the location is great. But the bed spread had tears in it and the floor had a big stain. I'd stay there again. Everything else was pretty nice. The pool looked really nice and the bar... more

We booked through wotif.com and got a special deal. The price paid per person was little more than what one would pay at a backpackers. Because of this we did not have high expectations. However, we were very pleased with the quality of the accomodation. All of the furnishings were of good quality. There was a large pool and area... more
