I have just stayed 3 nights and again it was a very enjoyable stay and the price is reasonable for Cairns. Good check in service, clean room, great bed and clean sheets. My room was on 6th floor with a view over the pool and esplanade. Air con works well, turned it off at night and room remained cool. I... More

Brilliant property. The hospitality was so nice. The rooms were big, clean and beautiful. The view from rooms of the esplanade was just mind blowing. The location of the hotel is good too. To sum it up it was brilliant. More

Nice, spacious, clean hotel at a reasonable price. Centrally located withing easy walking distance of the shops, restaraunts and Quay where most of the local Barrier Reef trips depart from. Lovely ocean view room with balcony looking over the esplanade and sea. We only ate in the hotel once for the buffet breakfast which was average and lacking in choice... More

Booked the tradewinds for one night before going on a dive live aboard. Location of the tradewinds is great, right on the esplenade and only a couple of minutes walk to restaurants and bars. I messed up my booking (as i do sometimes!!) but the reception staff sorted it out promptly and were really helpful. Thanks Guys. We had dinner... More

We often stay at Tradewinds if needing to stay in Cairns for an early morning flight. Also late checkout 12 pm if you ask on check-in. There are usually well priced last minute specials on rooms - most have a nice view over the esplanade. We travel with young kids/infants and the rooms are big enough for all of us... More

We stayed for one night in an Ocean View Room with a fantastic view of the Esplanade. The pool is inviting and there was plenty of parks on the street so I didn't pay for valet parking. The staff were friendly and helpful. The beds are very comfortable and my teenage son wants to buy their pillows for home! The... More

Stayed here for two nights, great deal on the rate from the website. location was great. stayed in a king water view room on flr 6. Bathroom was a bit tired but other than that no complaints. More

I went to the Rydges Tradewinds for 8 night. Paid extra for an ocean room and king bed as I went with my partner. I check in and we are put in a twin room on the side of the hotel with a small ocean view - also in the balcony was empty beer bottles. When your paying over $1000... More
