My partner and I stayed in a King Suite and it was so lovely, clean and comfortable with modern touches. The layout was spacious, practical and made sense. I loved that the hotel provided a "courtesy room" to use after check-out, as we wanted to take a shower and freshen up before heading to the airport. We did not dine at the hotel's restaurants, but they looked nice. Muddy's Cafe was just a short walk away from the hotel which we highly recommend! As for parking, it was AUD15/ day for secure underground parking or free parking right in front of the hotel. Housekeeping was tidy and very efficient. The pools were fantastic. We would stay here again if we came back to Cairns. Thanks to the lovely team who made our babymoon stay very memorable!

Second time staying here, first as newlyweds and now with our toddler. Fantastic pool facilities, you are able to order food directly to your pool lounger. The food is also very generously sized. The pool has a sand bank and a shallow area which is so fantastic for children. We spent most of our days here. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast every morning, it was cheaper to book this directly with the hotel. We stayed in a family room which was 2 adjoining rooms, great for babies to be able to take naps etc. Opposite the hotel is a fantastic park and playground. You are also walking distance to everything you need - food, shops, entertainment, beach etc.

Situated with uninterrupted views of the sea, a short stroll to the wharf and town centre, Riley was superbly located for our short getaway to Cairns. We had an apartment style with King bed, balcony with stunning views, separate designer bath and spacious living area with those same views. Staff were super friendly and helpful and after leaving AirPods behind contacted us and have arranged for them to be posted. The beach style pool was exceptional - similar to a favourite Peppers in Port Douglas.

Our room was fantastic, with the most incredible views! However, my personal favourite part was the pool & pool bar - the pool bar was open most of the day which was the best! Loved that you could grab a spot by the pool & order food & drinks (the Mango Tango is my all-time fave cocktail I’ve ever had now!) and not have to leave, if you didn’t want to. I also loved that there was music around the pool area too - such a vibe!

One of the best hotels in Cairns. Fabulous pool, comfortable bed with a choice of pillows and depending on your room some spectacular views ! Enjoyed dining and cocktails at the Calypso club. Borrowed bikes to cruise by the water. Clean, stylish interiors. Love that they consider environmental impact/sustainability too.
