This hotel is in a great location in the centre of a lively town. Our room was large, spacious and clean and value for money. The front desk was friendly and helpful, what more can you want from a hotel! More

We stayed here for two nights while in Cairns to dive the reef. The rooms were simple, clean enough and cheap compared to everywhere else we stayed in Oz. The location on the Esplanade was fun and super convenient. We came into town without having any tours arranged, and used the front desk of this hotel to book our trips.... More

Excellent location right in the middle of the Esplanade. Friendly family-run service too. Rooms could do with a refurb ..tatty furniture and didn't feel too clean, although bed linen was clean and crisp. More

This hotel / hostel is nothing amazing, however it is simple clean and cheap. I had my own room with a double bed for only $50 - this is good if you haven't got much money but could do with your own space and a big bed to yourself for a night. The room didnt have a tv or aircon... More

This motel is located in the beach esplanade.there are many restaurants, bars and shops just next to it. The esplanade is really the place where all the happening is in the evenings. The beach is just opposite to the hotel and you can go for a walk or run in the walkway along the beachside.Or just sit and watch the... More

so outdated it is comical. It's like walking into the 1950s. If you don't mind sleeping on a bed that has a number 6 written in marker on the headboard then stay here. This hotel is right on the Esplanade so it gets away with not updating or fixing (broken towel rack on floor of bathroom) rooms. Front desk people... More

I have stayed at the Bellview Hotel many times over the past 23 years and have always found the hotel to be clean, friendly, and the location could not be more perfect. The hotel, while located in the middle of the busiest street in Cairns, has most rooms set back from the street and is quiet at night. The hotel... More

Location on the Esplanade offers easy access to all parts of town. Restaurants, the Night Market (with all-day food hall), and cafes with Wi-Fi at just a stone's throw. Very competent staff can willingly arrange trips of virtually any description and price range. Pleasant swimming pool, never overcrowded. There is a good variety of rooms, all immaculately clean and well... More

We stayed 3 nights at the Bellview and chose it because of its reviews in Trip Adviser and its location AND because one of the owners was extremely helpful with advice on email to help us to maximize our time in Cairns during our 2.5 day visit. She was a jewel! In addition, the hotels staff is super competent and... More
