Great hotel for convenience to convention centre
Pros:

Good hotel in walking distance of the convention centre. Rooms were comfortable and quiet. The restaurant downstairs is French and very good, although service a bit slow at times. I've tried a lot of hotels for work in Adelaide but this one I will return to for price, comfort and location.
