Why it's worth checking out
Coral Tree Inn is a hotel in Cairns City, positioned on Grafton Street near the city’s restaurants, cafés, bars and major attractions. Its appeal is straightforward: guests can stay close to the centre of Cairns while having a quieter base away from the busiest activity. The hotel describes itself as boutique and focuses on convenience, making it a practical option for visitors who want to explore the city and use the property as a base between outings.
A continental breakfast is served each morning from 6:30am to 9:00am. The spread includes breads and pastries such as croissants and danishes, assorted spreads, coffee, tea, chilled juices, fresh-cut fruit, cold cuts and cheese. There is also a hot buffet with scrambled eggs, sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes and baked beans. Breakfast is priced at $22 for one adult, $38 for two adults, and $12 for children aged four to 11, while infants aged three and under eat free. That range gives families a clear option for starting the day at the hotel before heading out to Cairns’ attractions.
Coral Tree Inn also offers a Green Stay choice for guests who are happy to forgo daily housekeeping. In return, the hotel provides a $10 daily credit that can be used towards continental breakfast, pool towel rental, or drinks and snacks from the reception fridge. Rooms still receive daily bin emptying, and guests can collect fresh towels, amenities and other essentials from reception. The programme is intended to reduce water, energy and chemical use while giving guests some flexibility during their stay.
The property’s website also includes access to booking tours and attractions, with Cairns experiences such as reef cruises, rainforest trips, Skyrail, Green Island and Fitzroy Island outings featured. This may be useful for visitors planning day trips from the city. Guests should note that Coral Tree Inn does not have an elevator or porter service, an important consideration when choosing the property or arranging luggage. Overall, it suits travellers looking for a central Cairns stay, on-site breakfast and a more flexible housekeeping arrangement, particularly those who appreciate having dining, city activities and tour options close by.
