In Far North Queensland, in the heart of Cairns' vibrant cultural precinct, stands a beacon of modernity, sustainability and artistry - Bailey, a Crystalbrook Collection Hotel. It’s the perfect spot for couples or families to rest on a city break, with panoramic views of the hustle and bustle below. Enjoy art exhibitions, fine dining and easy access to Cairns’ world-renowned cultural quirks.
As you step into the lobby, you'll be immediately struck by the hotel's avant-garde design, a harmonious blend of contemporary aesthetics and natural elements. The lobby's living green wall, adorned with native Australian flora, sets the tone for the hotel's eco-friendly ethos. Passionate about sustainability, Bailey embraces Crystalbrook Collection’s belief in responsible luxury, using only sustainable materials day to day.
The hotel includes 255 rooms and suites, including a selection of apartments (called Residences) with kitchens that are perfect for families or longer stays, each a masterpiece of comfort and style.
