We were there for Ironman Cairns and travelled with family members. The choice of our rooms was excellent as we were side by side near the walkway to the pool. It meant we could put the bub to bed and still be outside the room, close by. It was a short walk to the esplanade where we spent most of... More

Excellent place in centre of Cairns near waterfront. Secure car parking, wonderful self contained apartments. Rooms clean and spacious and quiet and reception ladies were so very helpful at all times. Would recommend this establishment highly.

We stayed at Il Palazzo in March 2013 for 3 nights before and 1 night after taking the Savannahlander train adventure from Cairns. We had a room on the 3rd floor overlooking the pool.

I was so happy I stayed here while in Cairns. It felt like I had my own apartment and was living in the heart of Cairns, it was personal to me and I was so glad I wasn't staying at one of the big hotels and the rooms here are so spacious. I wish I had someone staying with me.

Room on 3rd floor overlooking the pool. Very spacious with all facilities available. (Wi Fi not free and best in reception) Free car parking right in the centre of town. Very clean and comfortable with very helpful, friendly staff/owners and an incredibly warm (under utilised) pool. A real home from home. No wonder some people live here all the time.

The location was great, right in the middle of town. And the staff was so nice. The owners work the front desk and they were very helpful. Unfortunately, the rooms were disappointing. I felt like I was walking into an 80's movie set. All the furniture looked like it was from the 80's and showed the wear and tear as... More

This boutique apartment hotel was exactly what we wanted - central to the city, close to the wharf where cruise boats depart from, and the apartment block itself, quiet, super clean, comfy beds, staff friendly and very helpful with travellers queries. It has a definite Italian appeal with colours, design including an inner courtyard, lots of lovely curves and statuary.... More
