Crowne Plaza Adelaide

Great location and first rate hotel.
You can’t beat the location as a visitor to Adelaide. That’s why we chose it. Beyond that, the facility was excellent, accommodations were first class, service was good, and the lap pool was wonderful early in the morning.
Valet parking was a rip-​off add-​on, but it was efficient for a downtown location, and the car was brought up exactly as we requested. Still a rip-​off.

The Crowne Plaza is a great hotel for business. I stayed there a Thursday and a Sunday night and the rooms were small but well equipped (my rooms were 11^th and 12^th floor — even numbers) — which was fine for short stay business folk but which might be too cosy for someone planning a romantic gesture. The staff were very friendly and courteous and the beds were comfortable!

I really like the crown plaza, as a tourist the location being right near rundell street means that the shops, cafés and parks are all close by, plus even china town and some lovely tapas style restaurants near the city centre are only a short walk away.
The staff were all very friendly, the rooms were pleasantly designed with plenty of space and nice functional bathrooms.
When we stayed the restaurant where offer two for $ 22 buffet breakfast including coffee which in Australia is very cheap!

So upon driving into the place in a taxi another cab driver gave us the middle finger. I was like huh… he was friends with our driver. And although he did not work at the hotel, it was a funny yet bizarre first impression.
This is really a great hotel. The location is very central. The staff could not have been nicer. The gal who checked me in was very friendly. She explained what was included in the reservation. They added wifi in their price. She told me I had to accept payment and they would credit it back on my bill, which they did.
The rooms were very nice and spacious and quite new. Also had a small balcony and a decent view. The bathrooms were very big and great closet space.
The breakfast buffet was excellent. They had some great and unique choices like a juicer and fresh made omelettes. The pastries were also delicious and they had a nice selection of fruits. The latte machine was a nice touch.
It’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for, so on that note I will definitely stay here again if I visit Adelaide.

Exceptional service. The beds are soooo comfortable. The breakfasts are phenomenal — squeeze your own carrot-​beet-​cantaloupe juice. wonderful cappuccino. So good!

Adelaide was once the home to a Hilton Hotel that was considered the only swank place to stay in town, until Hilton International revealed they were so embarrassed by it they’d rather remove it from their map of hotels… well those days are long gone and the Adelaide Hilton can call itself respectable, but it is the Crowne Plaza that takes the cake as far as being new, sustainable and fresh is concerned. The most recently built hotel, very nice rooms, quite stunning foyer and the bathrooms are fabulous. After all what traveller doesn’t want to pamper themselves a little on that level?

I don’t like giving five stars unless it’s truly deserved, so I had to think long and hard before making my decision.
The reasons it gets five stars:
The rooms are lovely. Being a new hotel, everything has the new fresh feel. The rooms are spacious and modern, and best of all, comfortable. They make me not want to leave the hotel.
Secondly, the staff are lovely, and they know what the word service means. Not matter whether it’s the reception staff, management, or the housekeepers, they are all friendly, polite and they make me want to go back.
Thirdly, though pricey, the restaurant, and the food is fantastic. I don’t mind paying an exorbitant amount of money (well I do mind, but every now and then is okay) for food if it’s something I couldn’t prepare better myself.
Definitely among the top hotels in Adelaide, and rightly so.

This is the newest and possibly nicest, posher hotel in Adelaide. We came here pretty spontaneously and there was a bit of a wait to confirm our booking. However, the fact the lobby is swish with comfy chairs, we could go get a drink in Redsalt bar and the delay was due to them checking in an entire Euro soccer team who had very nice bods, all helped the time pass swiftly. The rooms are beautiful, very spacious, clean and well-​designed. The best thing was the pillow-​top cloud mattress, that was seriously the most confortable bed I’ve ever had the pleasure of laying on. We decided just to stay and chill in the room all night with our latest release pay-​per-​view movies to keep us entertained. In a nutshell — my accomodation pick for RADelaide!

I rate this place pretty highly. Five stars aren’t given out easily, and I very nearly limited myself to four stars, but I think they’re better than some of the others that I’ve reviewed and given four stars to.
The rooms are really nicely appointed. Modern, fairly spacious, really nice bathrooms and the all important checkout is 11am, although I can’t remember if that was the default or if we requested it. The price wasn’t stupidly expensive for the quality, either. It’s a nice place for a special weekend.
I haven’t tried the restaurant yet, but I’m sure I will soon.
I loved the place.
