Rydges Esplanade Cairns

A flat 1 km-1.5 km walk from Cairns central, Rydges Esplanade occupies a quiet, tropical landscape only a block from the waterfront. On site are a brasserie-style restaurant and bar, a large health club with spa tub, short-stay child-minding, sauna, and a huge range of complimentary classes for guests, including pump, boxing, cycle-spin, yoga, tai chi, Pilates, and aqua aerobics. Additional facilities include two full-sized tennis courts, two lagoon pools, a plunge pool, a three-workstation business centre with high-speed Internet access, function and meeting rooms, two guest laundries, and ample complimentary undercover parking. A hairdresser and gift shop are located adjacent to reception. The hotel provides a regular shuttle service into the city centre.

The Rydges Esplanade complex is comprised of an 11-floor tower building of well-equipped two-bedroom apartments (some of which are occupied by permanent residents) and an adjacent 12-storey main hotel building featuring guestrooms with step-out balconies.
