Always a pleasure
Pros:

We love the Crystalbrook Flynn, we have stayed the last two times we've been to Cairns. The location can't be beat, right on the Esplanade on the same block as the night markets. The rooms are spacious, the bed is comfortable, the staff are lovely.

Relaxing, clean & comfortable. Highly recommend!!
Pros:

Clean, comfortable hotel in the heart of Cairns along the Esplanade/lagoon. Also enjoyed the buffet breakfast every morning. Nice variety, really appreciated that it opened at 6:30am (when few other options were available), before the day’s activities began.
