Pick somewhere else
From time check in no email or phone call regarding water shut off repair. (Would have stayed somewhere else if known) huge inconvenience for no water. As for the room mildew smell, towels were gross stained brown marks, listed as having a coffee machine the room did not. Had instant powder coffee. Safe didn’t work. When going to front desk with concerns the gentleman blew us off with smart remarks. Not helpful at all. Strongly urge to stay somewhere else. Only positive was the location.

Fabulous place to stay
What a beautiful place to stay, so spacious. Having the kitchen and washer and dryer was fabulous. We did not use the pool. It was so close to everything- within walking distance especially the lagoon and reef terminal for excursions. Highly recommended!

Very basic and very dated
In serious need of renovations. Very basic. I’m not sure how this property can be called a hotel. It’s more like a motel and the pictures are very misleadin.

The mantra is a functional property, with no frills. Its right on the esplanade, which is an amazingly convenient location for all the day tours and excursions out of Cairns. The property in itself is outdated, but functional.
