Reviews for Rydges Esplanade Resort Cairns
Helen Clare
Sorry, but this is just not a 4 star hotel in terms of what you imagine a 4 star hotel to be. Everything is quite shabby and very dated to the point where even I couldn’t look past it. We didn’t want to go bare feet on the room carpet. The reception is underwhelming and the breakfast wasn’t worth the cost. Someone else said the fitness room was a joke, and lol, it was. The back entry to the hotel from the street seems to have been totally forgotten about. Our balcony had what used to be a planter area just underneath it but maintenance was abandoned long since and it was just an area where lost underwear and brushes etc were collecting in dead grass. We didn’t mind our stay because we didn’t pay much for it, the sheets were clean, the shower was powerful and it felt safe, but whatever boxes were ticked for it to get 4 stars obviously weren’t based around them updating, maintaining or deep cleaning anything. This review isn’t actually intended to be mean, it’s purely to let people know that when they don’t pay much, it’s not actually a bargain in this instance. You’re just getting what you paid for. Giving it 2 stars feels a bit mean, but I really don’t think I can do 3. Please maintain it a bit better if your going to advertise as 4 stars. The staff were nice.

This was a great hotel, 3 pools and tennis courts. The rooms were a great size for 4 people. Queen beds would have been better, but I knew they were double. The beds are on wheels and moved a lot. The balcony was a good size. I liked that they had an air con and a fan. We mostly used the fan. The hotel was close to the beach and Muddy's playground, which was a huge playground and water play area. It is about a 10-15 minute walk to most of the restaurants. After a big day of sightseeing, it was a bit far most nights. The staff were always friendly and helpful. They filled my drink bottle with ice any time of day. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great location on the sea front. Rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. Staff were lovely and helped us check in earlier than expected & looked after our luggage while we went exploring. The restaurant was very good & had a nice selection of food at a reasonable price. I'd definitely return.

Rooms very dated, mould in bathroom, broken furniture, rusted lamps. This hotel should be at best a 3 star. Hotel staff so used to complaints so not caring or apologetic. We booked Deluxe ocean view room and was given a tree facing room on level 4. After we told them that was not what we paid for we were moved rooms the following day. Nothing given as an apology, no partial refund for their mistake for that first day, nothing at all. Very disappointed.....

Rydges is one of the biggest hotels in the Esplanade. However , this is a old hotel and needs refitting of carpets and uplift of furnishings and bathrooms. Overall the rooms are not maintained to what would be expected from a 4/5 star hotel. The front service desk and people working at the restaurants are super helpful and courteous. Also, the Marina is a about a 10/15 min walk from this hotel. We did get sea view rooms with a small balcony which was definitely the highlight. Swimming pool water was too cold and I expected it to be a heated pool
