    • Its location

    Cons -

    • asked for more water in the room, was told to pay $6 a bottle, housekeeping staff forgot to make up the room after we left, the hotel feels dated, nothing feels like 5 stars, the photos on the webite did a good sales job for the hotel, but be aware the hotel does not feel the same way showing in photos.
    • The fact that the room had a stairs to get to the bed get the bathroom is downstairs, it was very inconvenient and rather worrying to use in the middle of the night.
    • Nothing really

    Quality of the room itself was 5 star level, staff were extremely helpful and were quick to respond to any request. Location in walking distance to center of CBD and great dining choices

    Nothing really

    10JulianPosted on: 1-8-2026

    great breakfast; very helpful staff

    invoice didn't come through via email as was expected, and had to be specifically requested

    10LINDAPosted on: 12-23-2025

    We had a very comfortable room with large bed. The bathroom was closed off and private and had everything we could have wanted eg excellent lighting, soft towels, hot shower. The bed was extremely comfortable, side lights, very dark at night with little or no street noise. Staff were very helpful and polite.

    The loft suite is exceptional every detail was on point from the carpet to the bathroom tiles and even the tap ware, everything about this room screams luxury, relaxation and decadence

    The beauty of this hotel was sadly overwritten but the rudeness and snobbery of the staff (not all but 50/50) from the second I walked inside the looks I was given. His choice of wording. Tone and delivery and lack of warmth during check in had me feeling like I was less then and not deserving to be in attendance my experience throughout the stay with all other staff members bar 2 was very much of the vibe. Could have been exceptional but all the best finishings in the world cant fix the distaste of bad customer service

    10JessicaPosted on: 10-19-2025

    A stunning room.. interiors are thoughtful and attractive, it has a great view and a fabulous spa bath to boot.. one of the nicest hotels I’ve ever stayed in.. (amazing staff too ??)

    Good hotel room with comfy bed, hot shower and block out blinds. Short walk to Hindley Street restaurants.

    10russellPosted on: 8-10-2025

    The property was beautifully finished with thought in all the details. Everything was sparkling clean and the furnishings felt opulent and luxurious. Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly!

    I wasn’t planning on spending this amount of money however it is comparable in price to skycity EOS and of the same caliber with the advantage The Playford has is an indoor pool and spa.

    10PeterPosted on: 7-22-2025

    Loft room was spacious and well appointed. Staff were efficient and knowledgeable. Breakfast had a good choie.

    10AnnastasiaPosted on: 7-17-2025

    Our room was upgraded to this amazing suite with street views & balcony! The room was equipped with all amenities and more! The decor was superb! Thank you

    no onsite parking, it's across the road and is not included in your stay

    10Anthony D.Posted on: 5-12-2025

    This is a truly exceptional hotel. From the minute we arrived the experience was amazing. The location makes it very easy to get around the city. The welcome chocolate drink is a big tick as well. If we are in Adelaide again, we will be staying here!!

    There is nothing to dislike.

    10SahistaPosted on: 4-26-2025

    Buffet breakfast was lovely. The facilities were very clean and hygienic.

    Airport transfers by the hotel would have made the experience more comfortable and easier.

    9KatiePosted on: 4-22-2025

    The breakfast was amazing! We liked luma bar too. The housekeeping service was fast. Easy check in and the carpark was handy.

    The air-conditioning was freezing, we couldn't get warm or change our room temp so had to turn it off which was disappointing.

    7LaurenPosted on: 4-20-2025

    Really comfortable bed and the interiors of the hotel were really beautiful. Very clean rooms and replaced water and towels every day.

    Breakfast wasn’t included and was pretty expensive to add on. The sauna wasn’t working.

    10TarshiPosted on: 4-16-2025

    Rooms are clean and beautifully appointed. Staff were helpful and happy. The restaurant has a small but delicious menu. Will stay here again next time I’m in Adelaide.
