The staff are all lovely, the hotel had some fun activities for the kids such as the reptile pet show at breakfast and games where they could win free ice cream which my 7 yr old loved. Not to mention the pool was absolutely amazing to swim and play in! My kids spent at least 6 hours on the first day we arrived. Would visit again

We stayed 5 nights at the Novotel in Cairns. Staff were amazing, housekeeping was exceptional. The buffet breakfast was delicious. The pool loungers need replacing as they are all old and had sagged and you end up feeling the framing cross bars underneath, which was very uncomfortable.

5th time staying here. Great hotel. Kids love the pool and swim up bar especially. Breakfast is fantastic. The other meals aren’t at the same high standard but there’s plenty of choice elsewhere nearby. Rooms are basic but clean and the hotel staff are fantastic. If you go at Xmas the hotel even has its own elves to deliver presents for kids on Xmas day ;)
