Peter Wright made everything right!!! The Abbott in Cairns is a perfect place to stay. The location, the furniture and decoration, the cleaning ladies and above all Peter, the manager, who is a very welcoming and helpful and hard working man with a good sense of humour.

The hotel was outstanding on every level. Our room was upgrade free to a pool view room, we checked in early, and the pool was amazing. Great team, modern slick, and even a pad in room with all hotel information.

    I loved the ambience, true to it's name- it looked just like a Colonial Club would have in the old days. The rooms are beautifully placed, surrounded by tropical gardens. The design of the resort revolves around the pool, bar cum grill restaurant. It is family friendly and child friendly as well. It is a short drive from the CBD, but not within walking distance. Very close to the Cairns Botanical Gardens.

    I like the swimming areas, cater for all ages - children and adults. Right by the restaurant, there are two slides and a wooden platform for kids and teenagers to have fun going into the water. A big screen showing animated films in the evening. I find it a great place for family.
