This is a great place to stay. we had really good value for money on our deal. We booked extra nights because of this. Location is good because it is close to everything. Ten minute walk to beach. They need some sort of shade over the pools

We had a great time in Cairns and the Southern Cross Atrium is a great place to stay. We walked straight from our room 10 steps and into the pool. I will recomend to all my friends to stay there. Thanks From Lyn and David.

This was perfect for our family of 4 (one bedroom deluxe), loved having the kitchen. and a little extra room. Great location next to the mall, and within in walking distance from the lagoon and the heart of Cairns but also set back a bit and quiet. Great for families. Just a few minor downfalls, had to pay for internet, local calls, and little extras like dish and laundry soap. Overall we really liked it and would probably stay there again if we returned to Cairns.

The self contained apartment was a great size for the two of us, however more storage space for clothes would have been helpful in the closet.

I was most impressed by my whole experience the complex was clean and tidy and value for money.
Being so close to Town was an added bonus.
Hope to return soon.

We had a 1 bedroom apartment. Booking was a little difficult thru SCA so we tried the help of Travstar it became easy. Emma was brilliant to deal with, very easy. Would recommend them for help when you visiting Cairns. The complex - Fantastic! Well equipped, clean, tidy, overall just great facilities. Would stay there again for sure next time in Cairns!! Just do it!

Suited our needs well; after a busy day room service with evening meals was the best- relaxing on balcony as the spa/pool were too cold to swim after dark in winter. For us to return one pool/spa area would need to be heated.

The apartments were great, good size, modern and clean and we loved how central they were in Cairns, we walked everywhere we needed to. Only 2 things to mention, I dont know how much they charged for breakfast but we were a little disappointed that all we were given was toast and some cereal and also it seemed the aircon in our room maybe wasnt working to the best of its ability. Overall we were extemely happy with the accommodation and the amenities provided.
Would also highly recommend!!!

My husband and I had a wonderful trip to Cairns. This is mostly due to the efficiency of the staff at Southern Cross Atrium. Their customer service was excellant. We wanted for nothing. All our tours were booked for us as well as a 2 day car hire. Even when it was time to leave they printed our boarding passes for us so that we could enjoy a day of travelling in our rented car. The studio room that we rented was perfect for our needs. I would recommend it to all my family, friends and workmates.
Thanks again for a wonderful holiday.
Wednesday, October 01, 2008
everything went really well, except I forgot to mention that we were not spring chickens and there were 3 flights of stairs, 1st lot 16 then 2 x 8 steps, in the dark juggling a walking stick and ports, but we managed, plus it was also raining, found out when we were leavinig we could have changed to a downstairs studio, but never mind, we enjoyed ourselves and we will go back next year, and stay at the Southern Cross and will use your company for the bookings, am just a little older and wiser now.
But thank you for arranging every thing for us, and will contact you in 2009.

Located well, within walking distance to most facilities. Staff were very helpful with assistance with tour information and connections. However would not recommend the Deluxe 1 bed for 3 people, not enough privacy with bathroom facilites located off main bedroom. More suitable for couple or 2 singles (one sleeping in lounge area).

It was nice staying at Southern Cross except that our room is at the back of office works and very early in the morning they have deliveries so it was noisy. Other than that it was good and we will book again with them next time we visit Cairns. Very convenient because we were so close to the shops and the staff are nice too.

After reading some of the other comments I was a bit apprehensive about Southern Cross Atrium Apartments afetr having bad experiences at other places. When we first arrived we were welcomed by the reception staff. Everybody was friendly and happy. When we got to our room we were amazed - What an awesome place.It was clean, tidy, well set out etc. I would recommend this place to anyone. it was well worth the price we paid and would definately go back their again. We grabbed some business cards and brochures and have been giving them out to people that we think would enjoy the experience as much as we did. Thank you to the staff of Southern Cross Atrium Apartments.You get an A++++++ from us.
