Staying at this hotel was a real treat! The room I had, which overlooked the pool, was a nice surprise since I only paid for a double room. This feature was especially convenient as it was my start and finish hotel on a tour. The service, from the front desk assistance on a busy Saturday night to the General Manager who helped me secure an extra night last minute, was top-notch. The location is just perfect, walking distance to everything and with a lovely old-fashioned charm.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, while basic and showing signs of wear and tear, were clean and had all the necessary amenities. The service was excellent, with friendly and accommodating staff. The location was convenient for exploring Cairns center and the seafront, although the surroundings had an old-fashioned feel. The dining experience was good, especially the scrambled eggs, but the noise during breakfast was a bit disturbing. The facilities were satisfactory, with a well-maintained pool.

The hotel had clean, comfortable rooms with balconies to enjoy the Cairns climate, but lacked a warm and welcoming atmosphere upon entering. The staff provided friendly service, including accommodating a late-night check-in, although it was slightly inadequate. The location was convenient, within walking distance of the Esplanade and other attractions, with a good price considering included breakfast. The dining experience offered a good variety of food but could have had better quality. Overall, a decent option with friendly staff and convenient location.

The Coral Inn was a perfect pick for me with its spacious and well-equipped rooms that provided a calm oasis near the inner pool. The friendly and accommodating service added to the overall positive experience. The central location within walking distance of various venues and attractions was a big plus, although a slightly intimidating route back along Grafton St The dining options were good but a bit timed for early risers, and the facilities were convenient and well-maintained.
