"I stayed in Hong Kong for a few days and felt that shopping was too tiring. I chose Benson on the recommendation of a local Chinese tour guide. The price was indeed cheaper. But sad things happened. The sanitary conditions were average and the scenery was average. I thought it would be new after being renovated, but the room was still very old and had peeling. The swimming pool was too simple. I had no choice but to play outside except for sleeping. It is worth praising that the location is good and convenient for shopping."
"I would recommend this hotel to everyone. Although the room design is old style(not renovated one), the room is clean and the sea view is amazing. Great location especially to the meet up point of skydive and diving. Just 5 mins walk. Casino is just nearby so you don’t need to worry the night activities. Staff are friendly and helpful. I enjoy the stay a lot."
"The room was very clean. There was a ********* lady at the front desk who could speak Chinese. The hotel has a special menu every day. When we arrived, it was steak night and the steak was quite big.
There was room cleaning service. The environment was very quiet.
It was very close to the pier and it was very convenient to eat around."

"Cairns is my favorite city, and I also like this small hotel. There is a courtyard outside the room with tables and chairs for enjoying the cool weather and dining. The breakfast charge is slightly higher, but we find it expensive and useless."
"There is no breakfast, the room is large and clean, can accommodate 4 people, one large bed and two small beds, the bed is very comfortable, the room can also cook, and the kitchenware is full. The location is excellent, it is very convenient to be close to the supermarket and the seaside. The old lady is very nice and welcoming. Next time you stay in Cairns. Oh, forget to say, the cat is so cute!"
"Overall speaking is not bad. Free parking, if you bring children, it is not recommended. Very close to the mall, just across the road. Overall speaking is not bad. Free parking, if you bring children, it is not recommended. Very close to the mall, just across the road."
"The location is superb, super close to the port and various places. Opposite is the Woolworths supermarket, but after all, the apartment has time and the facilities are more general. Win in the room type is big enough ~"
"The hotel is very good, the room is good, but there is no service, the garbage of the previous guest has not fallen. After living for three days, no service personnel came in to do hygiene, even shampoo and shower gel were not given, so they could only buy it themselves."

Great
MMin Ts***The apartment is rather new. Location is the biggest its advantage. Vert close to bus station and restaurants. The whole block of 1/2 bedroom apartments are next to the “hotel”. The check in and out processes were fast without hassle.
During my stay, I found some daily problems that I had to sort out. As the staff at the reception said the apartment is managed by the hotel, however, it is not serviced exactly as the hotel rooms. I prefer to have some information sheet telling some basics solutions.
It was not cleaned up every day. We had the cleaning services for the 4th, 8th morning. I have to ask for refilling such as clean towels, toilet papers, rubbish bin bags, dishwashing tabs, I also need to empty the rubbish or food garbage.
Most disappointing, someone having their food in room and drop them nearby my door daily. As the temperature is hot there and stinky smell was suck.

GGuest UserI was overjoyed when I was upgraded to a WaterView room. I want to express my gratitude to Yuko, the friendly and helpful hotel counter, for making my day. The customer service at the hotel is exceptional and always goes above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Yuko, who upgraded my room, Jeremiah, the attentive waitstaff who delivered my room service, and Peter, the friendly counter who assisted me with my checkout, all played a vital role in making my stay memorable.

GGuest UserDefinitely one of the better hostels I’ve stayed in while travelling Australia. However, front desk reception lady was quite rude when checking in. Food and service in the restaurant/bar was shocking. But very clean, good showering facilities, good kitchen facilities, and comfortable beds.

YYuanThe 2 bedroom apartment suits us (2 couples) very well. It has more than enough space. The apartment was well equipped. The location is also good, very close to supermarket, also not too far from reef terminal (20 mins walk).
However the wifi was terrible, very bad. The beds were just about okay. Also the tiny quantity of toiletry supplies bothered us as well.

JJianyiThe front desk is not open from late at night to early in the morning, so you need to check the hours. It is located near the downtown area and can be moved around on foot.
The breakfast was nothing special, but it was good. Drinks can be brought or ordered for a fee. You can enjoy it on the calm front lobby floor.
The room was simple, but there was a simple kitchen. The pool jacuzzi was simple and not big enough to play in.
I forgot my power outlet accessories, but the front desk kindly lent them to me.
If you are an experienced traveler, I don't think there are any particular shortcomings or complaints.

PPHILLIP JAMESThe Mantra Hotel has outstanding location. It is directly in front of the Woolworths supermarket - the best option in central Cairns. It's also virtually opposite (the esplanade side)the lagoon public beachfront swimming pool. Finally it's just a 5 minute walk from Cairns Cruise Terminal, with outstanding day trips to Green Island, Fitzroy Island and the Reef. I booked a sea view room. When you enter the room, you don't see the ocean, but a building across the road. However, the view from the balcony was amazing. The balcony overlooks the main features of lagoon on the sea front. During the day it is great view - the lagoon pools and sea in the background. At night you cannot see the sea (as to be expected) but you have the amazing lagoon lights, which makes it very desirable and even romantic. Our room was at the end of block, which overlooks a shopping mall (no car noise) - looking right from the balcony is the lagoon view and looking left is a mountain view. However, from 2:00pm to 6:00pm the sun comes directly into the balcony area, which means it unusable until sun sets. Of course if you don't mind baking in the sun on the balcony, this is not really a concern. The room itself is pretty basic. The mini fridge of OK and TV has domestic channels only - no cable TV for BBC/CNN. The bathroom is of a good size. There is combined shower & bath. However, when using the shower, it can slightly flood this bathroom. A shower curtain may be desirable because the glass panel is not sufficient enough. At $225 per night this hotel was not cheap and you can better deals by coming in the off-season OR going bit further down the esplanade, and choosing another hotel. The Mantra does have its own pool and it is wonderfully heated, with normal deck chairs you would expect at 4 star hotel. However, the pool gets very little natural sunlight, because it of its location between 2 buildings. Overall, the hotel has amazing location, and it is still recommended, despite the shortcomings mentioned. My final note: When we checked in, I was impressed with the level of service provided by the receptionist. She had a very welcome attitude and a wonderful personality.

GGuest UserClean and tidy, complete facilities, and a good location. However, the front desk is not on duty 24 hours a day, which seems to be the case for local express hotels. If you need to store your luggage, it is inconvenient. After 4 o'clock, the front desk will not be able to take it out. If there is a one-day tour on the day of check-out, you need to plan the storage of your luggage carefully.
In addition, we booked it for Chinese food, but the Chinese restaurant was closed from Sunday afternoon to Tuesday morning (I can't remember the exact time), so we didn't eat it anyway. It is recommended to indicate the business hours of the Chinese restaurant in the hotel introduction.

JJuanK RuzThe price point definitely made this family room a good value, especially considering its location near the city center. While the room itself could use some updates and the building showed its age, the staff were friendly and accommodating. The musty smell and a few maintenance issues were a bit of a drawback, but overall, it was a decent place to stay for a short trip
