The staff were very friendly and the room was clean. I did not stay the night due to not feeling safe in the area - might not be good for solo female travellers

Disappointed
When we checked in the staff were great and very helpful. However when we got to our rooms the bathroom was nothing like the only photo when we booked. I think that could have been overseen if it were not for the smell of the room in total. So bad we actually checked out after we checked in almost immediately. Made our excuses and left. Disappointed.

Tropiq is in such a great location handy to downtown shopping and the esplanade
It’s a great budget option, yes older style but well maintained with onsite staff keeping everything in order and now non smoking it is very relaxing
There’s a great pool and bbq area and plenty of food delivery options
If there’s something you are missing just ask the friendly staff at the front desk
Thanks for a great stay

Management were friendly and nothing was an issue. Although the rooms are a little dated the bed and shower did the job. Definitely recommend the poolside. Was clean and would definitely return.

Very friendly, helpful staff. Good location, close to the CBD and Cairns Central. Tidy rooms...There can at times, be car parking issues, but it didn't affect me, as I just walked when I wanted to go into the city...
A great value for money place to stay 👌
