Adelaide Hotels with Bars

The room was clean and tidy, perfect for two people. The hotel is located on the third to sixth floors of the Adelaide Stadium, in a quiet area. Breakfast is à la carte with a wide variety of options and excellent service.

Really welcoming and friendly staff who were eager to help wherever they could. We arrived here at the end of our trip from Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road to Adelaide, so the comfort was very much appreciated after spending nights sleeping and living in a campervan. The hostel itself is very clean and maintained. There are multiple TV rooms, a massive chill-out area, and bathrooms that feel more like a hotel than a hostel. We booked a private room with shared bathroom. The room was a good size, with a balcony, a desk, and 2 large, comfortable double bed. It was also air-conditioned. The kitchen is large and well equipped, with multiple fridges and stovetops, as well as a microwave, cleaning products, and recycling facilities. The only downside is that some guests could be tidier and put their things away after washing up / cooking. The location is excellent — right in the centre of the city. You can walk everywhere: the bus station, supermarkets, China/Asian town, restaurants, and Adelaide Central Market are all just minutes away. Overall, I would definitely recommend staying here and would happily stay again.

We stayed at the hotel for my husband's birthday and had a great time. Loved the heated pool and jacuzzi. Room was very spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was a bit disappointing, very cramped and staff were struggling to keep up, did not feel like a five star experience. Balcony really tiny with no view, so not one you could actually use. Service was excellent and staff were very friendly.

This is a pretty good (though expensive) hotel in a great location. The decor may be starting to age, but its not too bad just yet, and I absolutely love the layout that allows the bathroom to be open to the room or closed off. The luxury feel of the bathroom quickly wears off when you get into the shower and wait fifteen minutes for hot water, especially when the water is coming through an ageing water saving shower head that probably should have been replaced during the previous Gulf War. I visited during Fringe, so the streets were loud, but the hotel is right in the thick of it if that's your thing (it was mine). I was impressed with how the noise from outside could be lowered reasonably well with both the balcony and inner windows closed. I was less impressed with the little sign that said they cared for the environment, which was a kind of care that didn't seem to extend to the provision of a recycling bin, which seems rather contradictory. It did, however extend to actually having the fridge off for my arrival, despite it having minibar items in it! A very strange arrangement indeed, as it renders the minibar useless until the fridge can be brought down to temperature. But overall, I had a great stay. The bed was comfortable, the staff were friendly, and the location was excellent.

The beach environment is still beautiful, perfect for watching the sunset and also great for kids to play. We happened to be there during Chinese New Year, so there were many activities like lion dances and delicious food. There are lots of restaurants nearby and plenty of spots perfect for photos, including a romantic Ferris wheel. However, we paid an extra AUD 40 a night to upgrade to a sea view room, and the air conditioning in the room was terrible. Despite repeated complaints about the AC not working, they wouldn't move us to another room. After one night, it was so hot that we had to ask for a fan. In the end, the front desk offered some compensation before we checked out. They definitely need to improve the customer experience!

The bathroom in the room is semi-transparent, offering no privacy, light blocking, or soundproofing between the bathroom and the main room. The breakfast buffet offered very few options, no real dishes, and lacked variety. The cooking quality was far below that of comparable hotels, even budget ones, both domestically and internationally. As an ovo-vegetarian, my only edible options were dry toast and not-so-fresh fruit. The only egg option was buttered scrambled eggs, with no boiled eggs available, nor any of the usual hot items like mushrooms, potatoes, or cold items such as tomatoes and lettuce. The drip coffee was basically flavored water. My travel companion, who eats a regular diet, found the buttered scrambled eggs to be the worst they'd ever tasted. They only offered either sausage or bacon each day, instead of at least two choices daily. Fried noodles, fried rice, and fried potatoes were also rotated, with only one available per day and no other options. There were no vegetables at all, hot or cold, and the fruit wasn't fresh, which they found both unfamiliar and unacceptable. The drinking water and the bathroom water in the room were both salty. Brushing my teeth felt like using saltwater and required a rinse with store-bought bottled water afterward. The towels were old and discolored, no longer white, and the bedding was similar. The only charging outlets in the room were standard three-pin sockets and USB ports.

Booked this hotel for our team during a business trip and had a great experience. The customer service was excellent. I was running late for check-in, and the 24/7 support team answered my call immediately and assisted me professionally. Free parking was a big advantage, making it very convenient for business travelers. Overall, a comfortable and reliable stay.

It was ok, but not more. The two most important things for me in any hotel are a comfortable bed and a good shower. the bed was great but the water pressure in the shower was very poor. Aside from that, there were other issues that I would not expect from a hotel of this standard, carrying the prices it does. The TV power button did not work, neither did any of the top buttons on the remote. Once I turned the TV on at the GPO and then on the actual TV itself, I was unable to use the connected DVD player as the buttons to switch to it on the remote did not work. Breakfast was quite poor. Basically cereal or scrambled eggs with a few other options such as fruit cups, yoghurt and biscuits. It served my purpose being close to the convention centre, but I doubt I'd stay there again.

The hotel is conveniently located about 10 to 15 mins walk across parklands from East Terrace in the city which is where most of the popular restaurants and cafes are. During our stay, the preparation for the V8 car races was ongoing and many of the roads were blocked off. But finding a detour was easy enough. The hotel has limited onsite parking but there are plenty of spaces in the quiet residential streets behind the hotel. The hotel’s reception also manages the Econo Lodge Hotel which is located across the street and has its own parking. We only stayed for 1 night and did not get to try the restaurant onsite. The rooms layouts were not exactly rectangular but they were big enough to accommodate a king and a single bed and a pull out bed from under the single bed. A good and unusual feature was a power point built into the bed side cabjnet which works well for those with a need to use CPAP machines or for charging devices. There was a study/work table in the room that is useful for business travellers.

As I was going to be leaving from the Parklands Train Terminal early in the morning this hotel was perfectly situated for my trip. Although I wasn't at the hotel for very long only about 12hrs overnight it was a good location and the room faced the parking so meant it was quieter as well and didn't get the hot afternoon sun either. I would say though there was no pricelist I could find for the mini-bar, not that I used it was only thinking of grabbing some cold water that was in the fridge. The one thing I wasn't a fan was the spa tub/shower combo. The jets need a serious clean all around them but then even standing in it meant anyone tall as in 6'5” plus may have to bend down. I would think they should rip out the spa tub and put in a nicer rain shower shower stall instead maybe just provide spa tubs in rooms that you can also put a shower stall into. I'd stay here again mainly for the location as it's also right across the street from the big park area which was fantastic to walk around on a warm evening after dinner at the pub up the street.
