This is a wonderful hotel in a good location; within walking distance of the Business district and snorkel attractions. The receptionist is an absolutely lovely person. We were running late the day of our cruise and she dropped everything to drive us to the harbor! She made sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. Breakfast is wonderful: fruit, cereal, jam,...

Just returned to the UK after our month-long tour of Australia, during which we stayed in a lot of hotels and apartments in a range of grades. Without doubt the most memorable and the one we would most wish to return to is the Tropical Heritage. The reception we received from Rosemary and her staff was second to none, and... More

Our room is pleasant, functional and clean; all that we need a hotel room to be while we travel. What is outstanding here is the friendly staff who not only helped us with tour bookings but the manager took me to a good supermarket where I could find yogurt with passionfruit; a delight I remembered from a trip to Australia...

Booked 3 nights from the U K & when we arrived Rosemary gave us an upgrade which meant we had lounge, bedroom & bathroom which were all well up to standard. As others have commented, this is a no frills hotel, just good clean basic accommodation at the right price. Also, as mentioned, you get Rosemary who is a real... More

Thank you for taking time to write a review. I think it is fair to say that we offer good, clean, affordable, safe accommodation. We should be judged on this basis and not as five star property - I myself, would elect to stay in a similar hotel anywhere in the world and I am sure that 90% of the... More

I know there's been a lot written about stars concerning this hotel property. First and foremast is Rosemary and her staff. They make you feel welcome and a part of their family. When I asked Rosemary how long it would take to walk to the dock area to take our snorkeling tour, she offered to drive us. If Rosemary could... More

You are quite correct - star ratings can be very deceiving, the fact is there are various categories of hotels/motels and it is impossible to have what is described as a 2 3 or 4 star hotel provide what is available in a 5 star property. The Heritage endeavours to meet the middle which is the bulk of the travelling... More

We only stayed two nights in Cairns, which probably wasn't enough, but this hotel was a perfect base. Nothing was too much trouble, the room was comfortable and well furnished, the facilities were all we needed.

You couldn't ask for a friendlier welcome than at the Heritage, and we were even offered a lift down to the marina one morning. Rooms are perfectly fine and there is filtered water and 2 hours' free internet access (not wifi) available at Reception. Don't expect a view – this is within the city – but our room at least...
