Liked: The staff at Travellers Oasis are lovely, especially John at reception...such a decent guy. The rooms were clean and spacious (we stayed in a twin and 4 bed dorm), the shower rooms and toilets were good as was the kitchen. It's in a nice location, just behind the mall and about 5 minutes walk from the bars etc. I would recommend you stay here when in Cairns.

Disliked: There were no bins in the rooms and that's only because i'm trying to find a fault.

Liked: Great location, just behind the Cairns Shopping center. A great pool, nice way to get out of the humidity. A very helpful staff that can assist you in booking any number of tours or other services in the area.

Disliked: Wish the internet was free, but such is life... Hostel bookers also don't get the free airport shuttle unless they are already in the area. Careful if you read about the free airport shuttle online or in a guide book. Thanks, nice hostel!

Liked: The pool is great, also awesome kitchen facilities. My private double had a mini-fridge in it, that was a great help.

Disliked: The A/C in the rooms was $1 for three hours. I thought it was rough to pay for A/C but at least the value was reasonable for a dollar.

20 June 2010 Anna would recommend this property

Liked: This has been my best hostel experience to date. The staff (John and Helen) are amazingly helpful and really go out of their way to ensure that you stay at Travellers Oasis and in Cairns is enjoyable. They offer really good info on trips to do in and around Cairns and book everything for you. All the suggestions they made (I did a Cape Trib, Kuranda and two sailing trips) were spot on and exactly what I wanted. The hostel itself really is a little oasis in Cairns and I love the decor here. The best place to stay in Cairns if you are looking for somewhere away from the party atmosphere to chill and relax.

Liked: We spent two lovely nights in Traveller Oasis. The room was very clean, freshly renovated. Hotel interior and exterior design was very well done: we took a lot of pictures of the hotel. Last but not least, John was really helpfull finding for us a very good car rental deal at the last minutes and suggesting us what self-driving tour we could do do. His advices were perfect: we really enjoy the tour we did following his advices.
