We stayed for two nights and to be honest I can barely remember them because everything was "OK". The service was very impersonal and slow but the rooms were clean (fairly grand but dated). The breakfast was good though. When we returned to Cairns we stayed at the Harbour Lights (same chain) and enjoyed it soooo much more. more

Over all we had a really nice stay at the Sebel. But if you look for luxury – don`t book the Sebel - especially if you are used to luxury class standards. The self-portrayal on the internet in my eyes is a little misleading here. However the price /performance ratio was very good and counterbalanced the missing luxury conditions as... more

We are a Melbourne couple who have just visited Cairns again for a weekend of rest and recreation. This was our first time at the Sebel Cairns Hotel. The hotel is comfortable, well appointed and our room was spacious. The staff was polite and helpful (except David in the breakfast room who wanted to physically and verbally prevent me to... more

Arriving into the Sebel's driveway, we were under the impression of a great hotel. The lobby was spacious and decked out with 3 chandeliers. The reception staff and concierge were very helpful. When we finally got to our room, we were sadly disappointed!!! It was a standard sized room with a stiff bed, outdated television set, an old 1970s looking... more

Deciding on a weekend getaway, I booked a weekend stay at the Sebel with some friends. When you first walk in there is a massive lobby area and wooden staricase, it really sets the tone and automatically makes you feel like you're on an incredible holiday, somewhere classy and pretty! On arrival there was only a short wait to check... more

I travelled with my sister to Cairns for a few days and we stayed at the Sebel for one night I made bookings over the phone and requested a nice room, given my sister was recovering from surgery. When we arrived, we were blown away by the entrance, it is extremely grand and elegant, high ceilings, stylish interior decor, exceptional... more

On the way from the airport, the taxi driver told me this used to be the best hotel in Cairns, and after the new owner took over, they completely refurbished it and it went even better. Actually it's a top class hotel, with beautiful, elegant and ample rooms, a dream pool, great gym room, centrally located, nice and efficient service.... more

Been to The Sebel for 1 night after a 5 day liveaboard trip in Cairns. We were definitely impressed with the granduer and cosiness of the hotel. A great respite from our rocky 4 nights' sleep on the liveaboard ship. The hotel is conveniently located on Abbott Street, just 5mins walk from the harbour, the esplanade, 10mins walk from the... more
