Hotel Grand Chancellor Adelaide
I only slept in the room. All was good. Would have loved a self-serve coffee machine downstairs.

Mayfair Hotel Adelaide
I often stay here for sorter work trips. Convenient central location. Prefer the rooms on higher floors and to the side or back away from King William Street. Comfortable bed. Tv is old and not inspiring to watch with movie all paid, but means I get out and about instead.

Stamford Plaza Adelaide
Nice location but I like a hot shower in the morning and this they did not provide. after five minutes or so it got to warm, it never got hot, and that was running the hot water tap only.

The Playford Adelaide MGallery
We stayed at the Playford for 2 nights. We had one of the rooms with a mezzanine. A nice room but could have been better laid out. A great shower. A lovely comfortable bed but if you moved out of bed the sensor for the stairs came on and there was a LOT of lighting. Same thing downstairs as soon ...

Tryp Adelaide by Wyndham
I have stayed at the hotel multiple times over the past few months due to work arrangement. Rooms are clean and modern, and most of the front reception staff are nice and helpful. However, unfortunately, customer service overall seems to have declined over time.
