Shire of Atherton Fishing Holidays

The staff are amazing! They took great care of us as return guests

The location was central and made everything easy. The room was clean, well appointed and the service exceptional.

We had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel in Cairns and couldn’t be happier with our experience. The location is absolutely perfect—right in the heart of Cairns, yet still peaceful and quiet. Everything you need is within easy walking distance: the beach, restaurants, cafés, and shops are all just about 200 metres away, which made getting around effortless, especially as a family. The hotel itself was exceptionally clean and very well maintained. From the rooms to the common areas, everything felt fresh, comfortable, and thoughtfully cared for. We also felt very safe throughout our stay, which is incredibly important when travelling with family. What really sets this place apart, though, is the people. It’s family owned, and you can genuinely feel it in the way the owners and staff treat their guests. The hospitality was sincere, warm, and welcoming—not forced or scripted. They went out of their way to make us feel at home, always happy to help, give local tips, or simply have a friendly chat. It was a fantastic family stay, and we created great memories here. If you’re looking for a clean, safe, centrally located hotel with heart and outstanding hospitality, this place is a gem. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cairns.

We were on the roadside-- but still very quiet. Parking off street available but we parked on the road as it was closer to our unit. Loved the indoor/ outdoor living. Coffee on room available. 5 minute walk to the beach, cafes and restaurants. Very safe town and very friendly. We used the pool and hottub daily. Jim waa very pleasant and helped us plan our day trip up to Daintree and the young fellow that works there suggested the croc tour-- which was AMAZING!! Bed was made up 1x (we were there 5 nights) which was fine, new towels were given 2x during our stay. We also asked for new pool towels which we recieved at the front desk and also asked for an extra umbrella--just a 'little' rain fell! Loved Palm Cove and thanks expedia for the $35 gift cert. to one of the restaurants.

I think our biggest complaint was that there could have been a few more power points. Everything was great. Excellent pool, spacious rooms, very good supply of those incidentals that you often think about like glad wrap and dishwashing detergent. We will stay again.

Beautiful ocean views Restaurants within walking distance Clean spacious modern apartment Staff is helpful

This apartment and the beach community around it were wonderful. It was very laid back and quiet. We explored multiple beaches during our visit and this was our favorite.

Freshly cooked breakfast on the large deck overlookig the sea - what a great way to start a day!

Good location. A bit rundown, did notatch the brand and the price

Great staff, location, food. Expedia has this classified as a three star hitel; WAY BETTER!!! We are staying in three star hotels throughout Australia and this one puts them all to shame. Way to go Novotel Cairns!!!!

Location was great and the staff was wonderful. The rooms were a little worn, but overall the room was comfortable and clean.

Stayed as a family group and everyone loved it. Rooms were clean and tidy and well appointed. The pool and BBQ area was great and fun for everyone. Check-in was easy and the location excellent, a short walk down to the beach and high street area with plenty of shops and restaurants
