Hi Casey Thank you for your review of Doubletree Cairns on Wotif. Our hotel does have a fantastic location, in the centre of town and an easy 2 minutes' walk to numerous attractions like the Esplanade, Cairns Lagoon, Cairns Aquarium and the Night Markets. Guests find the hotel an ideal base for getting out and exploring the city. Thanks also for your kind comments on the friendly Doubletree Team: I will certainly pass this on to them immediately. We hope to welcome you back again in the near future.

Thank you Teresa for taking the time to leave a review of Doubletree Cairns on Expedia. I am so disappointed to read your comments on Front Desk and Housekeeping as this is not feedback I normally read with regards to any of the team at Doubletree Cairns. They are normally reviewed as professional and friendly so I can only apologise if we feel short of the very high standards you should expect from a Hilton team.

For the money not great value, property getting a bit old but you get exactly what you expect so no complaints.

Hi Scott Thanks for the review of Doubletree Cairns on Expedia. I thought you might like to know we do have a 2nd hotel in the city - the Hilton Cairns - which is our 5* flagship property and which is currently undergoing a refresh of bedrooms. Might be worth a look next time you are visiting Cairns!

Very basic and quite small room but generally ok. Pool was nice and location was very convenient which made the stay better.
