I needed a clean and comfortable hotel room one night prior to a 7-day dive trip on a liveaboard. Pacific Hotel Cairns delivered nicely! The room was wonderful and the bed was so very comfy. It's located within walking distance to nearly everything.. restaurants, bars, coffee shops, etc. I'll definitely stay here again!

Be aware of construction works. Untidy, outdated

This motel was probably one of the worst i have experienced in a long time. Out dated, dirty/stained towels and bed sheets, mould in shower, general untidy. wasnt until i arrvied that i found out construction was going on within the building. Started from as early as 6am drilling into concrete, even though posted that it wouldnt start until 9:30. Went to relax and couldnt even sleep. The hotel should have it stated when booking that construction is happening. Rooms have no soundproofing, private balcony isnt private. Room doors dont soft close so you can hear everyones door slam shut. Noisy hallways. Buffet breakfast not worth the money. Completely ruined my vacation

We stayed there 4 nights in an executive suite and found the room very spacious, looked recently renovated. The bathroom was huge with double sinks a walk-in shower and a huge soaker bath that we made use of. Bring your own bath salts or bubble bath, non are supplied. We found the bed comfortable. Our room had a view of the carpark with mountains in the distance which was not great, but it was on the 3rd floor so did not expect much. We just closed the curtains and you wouldn't know. Nice large TV. We did not try the breakfast but did have dinner at the Brazilian restaurant which did offer a decent discount for hotel residents and was a very nice dinner. The location was very good. The boat marina was just down the road, the Esplanade was right there as was many coffee shops and restaurants of varying types and prices, all within short walking distances. All in all we found it a very pleasant stay.

Handy location! Two night stay, car did not leave parking all weekend, because of everything we needed or were doing was in easy walking distance. Disappointed the complimentary bottle of wine on arrival didn’t happen and twin bed request was not recognised, it did get made but not for arrival.

One of the worst hotels we’ve ever stayed in. We booked the deluxe king with balcony, and the moment we set foot in reception, we knew it was a mistake. The reception area was very tired looking, toilets were not easily accessible and they were very dirty. The lift and corridors were old and dirty. Our room itself was very dirty, obviously hadn’t had a thorough clean in what looked like years. The toilet seat was bubbled and broken, there were stains/marks in the toilet bowl, hair on the floor. The shower was extremely slippery and dangerous. The sheets were stained and carpet worn and dirty. The fridge made loud noises all night. You only have control of the fan and on/off for the air con. So we either had to be freezing cold or boiling hot. The walls/doors/windows were paper thin. We could hear every ounce of street noise (even on 9th floor) and every sound and movement that other guests made. When another guest used the plumbing, you could hear it loud and clear in the room. If another guest was having a normal convo in the hall, it sounded like they were right in the room with you. This hotel is in terrible condition and terrible value. We paid almost the same price for the same type of room on the same day of the week a block up and it was a thousand times better than the Pacific Hotel. I’m normally a generous rater, but the only nice thing I can say about this place is the location is good. Definitely not worth the money we paid and so many better options nearby.

Stay away What shows in photos is not wha you really get. The entry for our room was sticky and dirty. The bathroom had no fans. Bathtub was patched up and the taps were making noises. The towels were dirty. Toilet was terrible. The carpets and curtains were like never been cleaned. The tv had no internet access. We had to ask for slippers. No beverages or water in fridge. The reception area carpet was dirty as. The staff was incompetent. Some had difficulty with English.
