One of Cairns' finest examples of Queensland style architecture, this grand old Queenslander, built in the 1930s and renovated with tender loving care offers guests luxury with a difference: downstairs apartment with a private entrance & patio; two bedrooms (Queen and twin); bathroom; lounge room with TV/video & extensive reference library; and sunny breakfast room opening onto a tropical swimming pool, surrounded by lush tropical gardens, lovingly tended.

Located just five minutes from downtown Cairns in leafy Edge Hill, Galvin's Bed and Breakfast is one of the most central holiday B&Bs in town, offering rainforest accommodation to Cairns, Port Douglas, The Great Barrier Reef and Tropical Far North Queensland.

We only accept one booking at a time so you are guaranteed the whole place to yourselves - no need to share. Whether single, double, family or two groups travelling together, with our special blend of hospitality and privacy, you will want for nothing.

Galvins' relaxing bed & breakfast property offers a private phone line, laundry facilities, paraphernalia for day trips (cooler, beach towels, bird books) and luggage storage for those heading off on further adventures. A home away from home.

We are very lucky to have discovered this wonderful, homely B&B. Congratulations; a great set up. We will certainly tell our friends giving you A+ for recommendation. We have enjoyed our time in Edge Hill. Great shopping centre. Buses to Cairns. All very convenient. Regards to you Julie, Jesse & family. Thank you.

We have enjoyed our stay very much. Hopefully we’ll be lucky enough to experience this “Beautiful Tropical Abode” again! Hospitality was generous in every way. I hope you apply for and ‘WIN’ the “2006 Cairns Garden Award”. Cheers

Thank you very much for our very comfortable and pleasant stay. We will return as we continue to visit our family in Cairns. Thank you for our very relaxing and comfortable stay. Just what we were hoping for and couldn’t have been better. See you again sometime very soon hopefully, when we visit our family.

Great hospitality, above and beyond. We’ve had a wonderful time in this beautiful setting. Julie and Jesse’s knowledge of tours and sights made our holiday planning so easy. Thanks for everything. P.S. I’ll miss my morning fruit plate.

This is exactly what I wanted. I was here doing a course and though I wasn’t in the room much, when I was, I was studying. Having a relaxing environment made it a lot easier. Thank you for your wonderful accommodation.
