Staying at the Playford made the visit to Adelaide for a short break/AFL game just perfect.
Pros:

Supremely comfortable; great proximity to Adelaide Oval and CBD shopping; super pleasant and helpful staff; excellent breakfast with many options for a vegetarian. I will definitely stay again.

The best hotel in Adelaide!
Pros:

I loved everything! From the moment we stepped through the "twirling doors", my kids were enthralled. They enjoyed a mini hot chocolate while I checked in. The room was gorgeous, with 1930s styling and modern facilities. The bathroom had enough light for me to actually see the make up I was putting on (unlike many other hotels we have visited this year)
The staff were friendly, kind and exactly the kind of people that deserve a pay rise 😉

Would absolutely recommend and will definitely be staying here again.

Cons:

That I had to leave.

A comfortable stay but probably won’t stay again due to average room and noises during the night.
Pros:

Great location, friendly staff, good breakfasts. Enjoyed the pool and spa.

Cons:

Breakfast area is congested due to narrow passages between tables and tight area where food is obtained. Room 630 was noisy during the night as outside noises were heard at early hours of the morning. Would have preferred a non south facing room - we were celebrating a birthday and so hoped a better room would have been offered.

Very nice and relaxing .
Pros:

Staff were friendly, bedrooms were nice.

Cons:

For a heated pool, it wasn’t that warm. Also we were hoping to get breakfast buffet in our stay, but $40 each for a family of 4 seemed a excessive, so we went elsewhere. Otherwise we enjoyed it.
