Top Johnstone River Nature Refuge Hotel Reviews
DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Cairns
10/10 Excellent
"Great spot great hotel big room"
The Canopy Rainforest Treehouses and Wildlife Sanctuary
10/10 Excellent
"Lovely treehouse in the forest. No WiFi in cabins can go short walk to reception to use. Our tv didn’t work but that no real hassle. Would have liked a compendium for brief explanation of how things work. Was a great experience to sit and feed the birds and we saw cassowaries. Karen ( relief managers ) was lovely and very helpful"
Shangri-La The Marina, Cairns
10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at Shangri-La Cairns, and while the hotel itself is in an excellent location and is both beautiful and comfortable, what truly made the experience exceptional was the outstanding service from the staff. From the moment we arrived, the team went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Every interaction was warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful, and it was clear that nothing was too much trouble. The staff’s friendliness and care consistently elevated our stay and made everything feel effortless and well looked after. We also enjoyed the breakfast and the 5pm canapés, which were a lovely touch to start and end each day. Our room was clean, comfortable, and relaxing, but it was the exceptional service that truly defined our experience. Overall, it was a genuinely memorable stay, made special by the incredible staff, and we would happily return."
NRMA Atherton Tablelands Holiday Park
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful convenient location. Lovely tropical gardens."
Malanda Lodge
8/10 Good
"We only booked for one night en route to Cairns, and wish we had stayed longer to explore the area more. Our room was really nicely made up and comfortable. Breakfast is included in the room cost and when they found out we were leaving early we were given a packed breakfast so we didn't miss out, which was very thoughtful. There's a cute gift shop on site with a very varied selection of locally made art and craft work at very reasonable prices. The restaurant wasn't open, but there were lots of options in town to choose from."
Cairns Coconut Holiday Resort
10/10 Excellent
"The property is great for kids with lots of activity. A great mix of camper space and villas"
Hilton Cairns
10/10 Excellent
"The room was superb! Also the hotel property was elegant and well designed. It was a pleasure to walk around the property and take in the views. The pool and jacuzzi were also well done for the swim area."
Nightcap at Atherton Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Clean room, very helpful staff, easy check in, made for a great experience"
Atherton Tourist Park
8/10 Good
"Easy and well located"
