It was a nice stay. We’d just come from Palm Cove, so it felt a little tired and busy in comparison. We liked the view of the river. We found the Esplanade very windy but maybe we were just unlucky? The staff were lovely and the Little Hilton stamp collecting was cute for our kid. But annoying having to pay additional charge for parking - not sure we would choose this place again based on that.

Exceeded our expectations by far. The club level room was so worth the extra cash…the view of the water and marina was spectacular. The room is a little dated as is the rest of the property but it is immaculately clean and the staff incredibly welcoming. The breakfast buffet was vast with something for everyone (the scrambled eggs weren’t good though). Wouldn’t hesitate to return for another stay.

Lovely hotel, but a little tired in certain areas. The pool had quite a few tiles missing, but not to the detriment of a swim. The surroundings of the pool had plenty of sun lounges, but a few more umbrellas would be good. All in all a very enjoyable stay and would stay again.
