Staff were so helpful, really go out of their way to help sort out any problems. Well done.
2.5 / 5.0
Nice - no frills establishment in the heart of Cairns -
Including a lot of noise at night & morning - to be expected when located in the city
1.5 / 5.0
After completing a packaged tour, I needed a reasonably priced and convenient accommodation in Carins before an early bus, so chose Hides as it was close to Cairns Railway Station.
My checkin experience was soured slightly as the reception would not accept "tap and go" cards for the deposit, unlike all other hotels.
Once I got into the room, I was quite impressed with the facilities, especially with the bed side lamps with in-built USB charging,
The room itself was spacious and comfortable, more than acceptable for an overnight stay.
The location is convenient to shopping and cafes in the city.
Overall would stay again.

We loved the position of the hotel with easy walking distance to the shops, Esplanade, night and Rusty Markets etc.
Also our room was bigger and better than expected and the staff were always very obliging and helpful !!

There is serious pest issues at the property. Cockroaches inside the room coming out the bathroom. Old facility.

The room was OK and met our needs but the common areas were grungy. I would probably opt to pay more and stay in a nicer hotel if I came back to the area.

Ok location, rundown.

In dire need of repair and cleanliness. Dirty linens to begin and a roach invasion to end our stay! Still awaiting the hotel manager to contact us regarding this stay, which we cut short due to the roaches. Please make this right with us

Arrived in the evening after flying in. Parking is definitely a challenge with street parking only available.
The lobby looks a little dodgy but the interior of the hotel was surprisingly freshly painted and clean

This is an okd buiding with cold hard floors, unfunctioning humidity extractors in the bathroom and toile, and had false fire alarms waking you up in the night (2 in five days).

Nice hotel
1.0 / 5.0
Checkin staff rude and unhelpful. Long line of people waiting to check in at 2:00pm, probably because we were refused checkin 15 minutes early creating a backlog. People infront of us told room not ready. Worst service at a hotel I’ve ever received. Will not be back.
3.0 / 5.0
Everything in the hotel was quite old. The bed was super squeaky and not comfortable at all. Also, the room was not very well sound proof. We could hear the next room persons talking while they were not even trying to be loud.
The only great thing about this hotel is the location!
4.0 / 5.0
Great location. Handy to everything. Good value breakfast if a bit basic and great to sit outside on balcony. Reception at times felt like a hostel with some staff a little unfriendly and officious and people sitting around waiting. Disappointing to have to wait to specified check in time rather than being offered the room when actually ready. Overall a good spot for a short stay.
0.5 / 5.0
Gentleman that checked us in was helpful but it went downhill from there. Killed a Roach in the bathroom, mold on the a/c unit, stained towels, filthy air return, debris on the mattress pad. If we hadn't of arrived so late, we would have gone elsewhere.

-Bathroom exhaust fan didn't work and was covered in about 5 years worth of dust
-Some very dodgy people hang around this street outside the hotel making it not the safest place

1.5 / 5.0
Hide looked pretty rough on the outside and in the foyer. Fair go though the building isn't young. The room has been renovated nicely and the bed was comfy.
I've let the hotel know that the sink tap was dripping and leaking into the vanity cupboard. During the night there was a persistent low sounding mechanical banging noise.

Historic hotel in heart of shopping district. Well kept, interesting history is displayed on a plaque within hotel. Staff were not knowledgeable about surrounding area. I asked two different staff members multiple questions about area north of Cairns and neither could answer any of them.

Excellent location! Room was clean!
Downside was the walls were paper thin, you could hear everything in rooms next door!
