Went to turn lights on in room, non existence, small orange down lights. There was no soap or shampoo and hate having a cold shower. Need to use lift and other people was using it to move furniture. I think the guest that stayed the same weekend as us should have been told it was the last weekend for it to be open cause of renovations. ##### sharon ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 12, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Overall, very good.

Nice staff. Staff was excellent, helpful and courteous. This hotel is closing down in two days for full renovation by the new owner. We had a good time, used the pool, restaurant. If you opt out of the daily cleaning you get $10 credit on your account every day that you opted out. Reducing your meal and drink cost. ##### Maya ### 4/10 Poor #### Brendan, PNG Feb 10, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Not an enjoyable stay! This is the second time I have stayed at Rydges Tradewinds in Cairns. I stayed for a weekend in mid 2015. That stay was fairly average. Main concerns were the room was a bit dated. Other problem was very inconsistent internet. I was there for business and needed access to internet and it was exceptionally poor. I expressed my concerns to staff but got no constructive response. I stayed again last weekend, because my first choice hotel was booked out. The location of Tradewinds is good so I hoped changes had occurred since my last visit. Sadly, no. The first room I was given was tired and dated. Of real concern was a larger patch of black discolouring which looked like mould on the ceiling near the aircon. I requested another room and was given one. This room was much better. Again, the internet was very inconsistent and unreliable, cutting in an out repeatedly. When I raise this concern with staff I was told it was because the hotel was full and there was too much demand. If this was indeed the reason then it does not reflect well on the hotel that they can't consistently provide a stated service. I believe the problem was an inadequate IT infrastructure. I was using internet at 4:00 a.m. and 4:30 a.m. on consecutive mornings. There was no difference with internet at those times when users would have been minimal. This issue was seriously frustrating and inhibited work productivity. Last morning, no hot water at all in the bathroom. Very poor given cost charged. ##### Brendan ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 9, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Everything very comfortable.

It was extremely noisy and we could not even talk in the room as we could not hear each other. We asked for another room. The receptionist was very kind and efficient to organise a room change. However we wonder why in the first place they assigned our room in the noisy area knowing we would be staying for several days. They could have paid more attention to this and done a proper room assignment. As we got an interconnecting room, we heard some irritating noises from neighbours but did not care much. However, one neighbour was chatting all night and we had to wake up in the middle of the night and call reception. Thanks to the receptionist, they stopped chatting loudly afterwards. Hotel itself seemed quite old. That was not really a matter, but aircon and ceiling needed to be cleaned as they were dusty. I got bitten by something and had a rush while I was sleeping.Afterall, I got 7 red spots on my right leg and 3 on my left leg. Cleanliness standard should be improved. None of the reception staff was friendly or attentive. They only greeted when we approach to the front desk countre. Service standard should be improved as well. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### large apt Jan 30, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Very comfort close esplanade shops & restaurants. Recently sold and new owners are going to update it. ##### large apt ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Jan 30, 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bad conditions for a 4\* hotel We checked in and were taken into our room. The smell of mold was VERY strong, and we noticed that the "popcorn ceiling" was full of mold. Being allergic to mold, I asked to change rooms. A person from the staff showed us another 3 rooms - all with the same problem. We picked with room with the less amount/smell of mold (still strong in my opinion). A few nights later we were awakened by very loud sounds that seemed to come from the pipes or AC. The staff at reception explained that now we had "neighbors" upstairs and that this horrible sound might come whenever they flush the toilet or have a shower. So until those guys settled down for the night, we couldn't sleep. The same happening in the following nights until we left. The hotel in general is quite old, and it was a very disappointing experience for a 4\* hotel. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Kev, Gladstone QLD Jan 27, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great position, great breakfast, great staff Overall i personally really enjoyed my stay, could'nt fault anything at all ##### Kev ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 27, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel close to everything I flew up from Townsville,i turned up early around 11.15am,staff where great and checked me into my room straight away,room was comfy with a great view,will stay again ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### anonymous, cairns Tradewinds Jan 26, 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Old and dirty We stayed in this hotel and couldn't wait to leave. The rooms were beyond dirty with a thick layer (2-3cm) of dust covering the fans and other surfaces of the room. The room smelt terrible and there was black mould on the ceiling. Needs to be cleaned thoroughly and updated. The staff were understanding and helpful in finding us a cleaner room with minimal fuss. ##### anonymous ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 26, 2017 Liked: Staff & service The carpet, bed, drawer and everything is bit old, no fan in the bathroom, ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### NQ lander, Burdekin Jan 24, 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Was once a nice hotel. This hotel is very central but seriously needs an up grade and a good clean. The hallways weren't vacuumed and the lifts were very dirty. The beds were past there use by. ##### NQ lander ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 24, 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### good location but needs updating and cleaning The rooms in this hotel were inexpensive but you get what you pay for. check in was great and easy; hotel lobby smells musty, glass doors are not shiny, pool area, and room balconies need a good power washing and repaint. Rooms are pretty and were mostly very clean however, fabric sofa, dining chairs and carpet were stained in spots. WIFI is terrible. We were on the 7th floor Executive suite, corner room and the bedroom had no wifi at all the rest of the suite had sporatic WIFI. ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels with Hot Tubs in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Hotels-With-Hot-Tubs.0-0-d180002-tHotelsWithHotTubs.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hilton Surfers Paradise Hotel & Residences](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Hilton-Surfers-Paradise-Hotel-And-Residences.h4238660.Hotel-Information) > > [Belise Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Brisbane-Hotels-Belise-Apartments.h16643532.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Gold Coast](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h11768.Hotel-Information) > > [Burleigh Surf Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Burleigh-Surf-Apartments.h4593274.Hotel-Information) > > [Lexi Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Artisan-Hotel-Boutique-Adults-Only.h13134.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Barbados Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bridgetown-Hotels-Hilton-Barbados-Resort.h901879.Hotel-Information) > > [Golf Hotels in Prince Edward Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Prince-Edward-Island-Golf-Hotel.0-0-d6058122-tGolfHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Tangalooma Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Brisbane-Hotels-Tangalooma-Island-Resort.h2254989.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea World Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Sea-World-Resort.h871443.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Harbour Castle, Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-The-Westin-Harbour-Castle.h10931.Hotel-Information) > > [Q1 Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Q1-Resort-Spa.h1859086.Hotel-Information) > > [Brisbane Skytower by CLLIX](https://www.expedia.ca/Brisbane-Hotels-Arise-Brisbane-Skytower.h19178209.Hotel-Information) > > [Capsule Hotels YVR Airport Station](https://www.expedia.ca/YVR-Airport-Station-Capsule-Hotels.d6215588-aaCapsuleHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Peppers Soul Surfers Paradise](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Peppers-Soul-Surfers-Paradise.h4619963.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Powell River (YPW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/ypw/vancouver-to-powell-river) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yeg/toronto-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Lapu-Lapu (CEB) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ceb/yvr/cebu-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lhr/toronto-to-london) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Thunder Bay (YQT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yqt/toronto-to-thunder-bay) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Teterboro (TEB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/teb/toronto-to-teterboro) > > [Flights from Bangkok (BKK) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bkk/yyz/bangkok-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to New Orleans (MSY)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/msy/toronto-to-new-orleans) ### Cruise > [Cruises to Bahamas](https://www.expedia.ca/Cruises-to-Bahamas.d13.Travel-Guide-Cruise) ### Activities > [Things to do in Sardinal](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Sardinal.d6229365.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Kingston](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Kingston.d6057821.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [St. Moritz Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Moritz.d9898.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Punta Cana Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana.d601906.Destination-Travel-Guides)
