Perfect location for attending an early morning event at Convention Centre
Pros:

Excellent location to attend an event at the Adelaide Convention Centre. Parking conveniently across the laneway & easy drop off point for luggage to check in and before entering car park. Perfect for my requirements.

Excellent. Will stay again but not at rear of hotel.
Pros:

Staff, cleanliness, facilities, service (including after hours meal service) and decor were excellent. The studio room was brilliant.

Cons:

Rear rooms are in close vicinity to a very noisy pub for young people with shrieking and shouting very late at night. The room looked out on to a laneway and building.
