The apartments look tired, the apartment wasn’t entirely clean, there’s no free wifi, they only cleaned the room once in 8 days. The location is good, but they really need to up their game.

Extremely disappointed the pool was not heated so we were unable to swim. Very unhappy it cost extra to have your room serviced. Nobody wants to walk through the hotel with a roll of toilet paper! Also expected to pay extra for wifi. Great location and staff were lovely

The property is in a great location with most things within walking distance. Room was spacious and clean. One annoyance is when checking in for a 5 night stay there was one roll of toilet paper and the room doesn’t have regular house keeping, they are happy to supply amenities at request but it is an inconvenience to have to keep asking for toilet paper. The mantra should consider a supply of one roll per night and providing fresh towels every 3rd day. Overall was happy with the accommodation

I had such high hopes about staying here. The photos of a sun drenched pool looked like just the sort of winter time retreat I needed. Unfortunately, the pool is placed in an awkward corner at the back of the property - and received NO SUN at any time of the day. It also WASN’T HEATED - not even a little bit (ice-cold spa anyone??). Needless to say, my dreams of relaxing poolside while my kids played for hours on end in the water were never realised. The broken treadmill in the gym was another disappointment. It remained unfixed for the entire time we were staying. I have no issue with the room itself. Thankfully, we were assigned a room with a balcony that got direct sunlight. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the location of the hotel was very convenient for getting to local attractions - I just wish the pool was a useful space instead of an afterthought.

Centrally located with bars and restaurant at the doorstep. Pleasant environment, ideally located next to the Esplanade. Every staff member approached was extremely pleasant and displayed a readiness to address your needs. Overall, it's a very convenient place to stay when visiting Cairns.

The hotel was really nice and located in a great area right in front of the beach, with lots of dining and shopping options within walkable distance. The staff were amazing and really friendly, and always happy to help if we had questions or needed things for the room restocked. The rooms were for the most part really clean. Potentially there could have been another sweep though the bathroom, but other than that everything was great. It's also walking distance to Woolworths which is really convenient if you want to pack/prepare food for day trips. The free parking included with the room was really handy, especially because we picked up a rental car for some day trips. Overall the experience was great and I would definitely stay again.

The Mantra Esplanade is a lovely property with great, spacious and clean rooms, a bathtub, very close to the warf for tours, loads of restaurants, and right behind is a grocery store. Best location on the esplanade and will definitely stay there again. Staff were awesome and we had everything we needed. Excellent!
