I really enjoyed my stay at Mantra Esplanade Cairns. The room was very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The location is perfect — close to everything, including restaurants, shops, and the Esplanade lagoon. It made getting around Cairns so easy. I would definitely stay here again!

Infortunately my door handle was a little tricky getting in every time i left the room and there was a constant dripping sound from the bathroom although there was no dripping taps. I reported the door but not the bathroom as there were no maintenance on weekends.
