Testimonials
What our customers are saying!
AMAZING STAY!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Benson! When we arrived after many delayed flight issues, the staff were super understanding and accomodating. They are also very active on their booking.com messages and were replying to our updates promptly. The rooms were perfect and we had a beautiful view from our balcony. The breakfast was amazing, proper cafe-style menu and it was delicious!
We couldn’t fault our stay here and will definitely be staying again 
No Better Venue in Cairns
We had our daughters 21st here last night and it was absolutely fabulous. The setting is gorgeous, the staff amazing. Everyone was so helpful and Courtney the events manager was just such a delight to deal with. There really is no better venue in cairns. The sax player was fantastic, just a great vibe all around. Thank you
