Great spot on the water. Visited to do some scuba diving on the GBR. All the boats are a short walk from the pier. Plenty of shops and restaurants in the area. Very quiet and staff were pleasant. My only negative is no ice machine

It shouldn’t be a Hilton, the hotel is outdated and needs renovation. Has the best location and views in Cairns and I believe they can charge more for a proper Hilton. The staff are nice however and would go above and beyond to help.

Stayed 4nights. The A/C unit in the room stopped working, and it made excessive noise on the day it got repaired. Anyway, everything was sorted out on the second day promptly. Although I experienced the issue with the A/C unit, I’ll 100% stay Hilton Cairns again if I visit Cairns for any reasons. The managers and staff at Hilton went the extra miles to ensure my comfort while I was there. Truly amazed how they did and what they did. Stayed over 50 nights at many different hotels this year, but only Cairns Hilton is the place I want to stay again. (One of the hotels I never visit again is ‘Hilton Surfers Paradise’) Thank you.

Terrible Experience
Rooms seem very small. Had to enter the hokey pool area(no bar, no anything) from the third floor stairway. Went to have a drink mid afternoon and there were jackhammers so loud it was horrid. No doormen in front of hotel to assist w bags etc….the whole program there seems run down and the service is terrible. we were set to return there but i immediately changed to the Shangri La.
