"Stepping into Stamford Plaza Adelaide on North Terrace, I was greeted with warm smiles and a personal touch, with staff addressing me by name from check-in to check-out. The hotel’s prime location, just 600m from Adelaide Oval, is perfect for sports fans. Rundle Mall (200m), the Art Gallery of South Australia (500m), and Adelaide Botanic Garden (1.6km) offer shopping and culture, while Gouger Street (1km) and Leigh Street (800m) buzz with dining and fashion. The King Deluxe room was clean, cozy, and spacious, with modern amenities like a flat-screen TV and plush bedding. Complimentary chocolates and wine added a special touch. Remarkably quiet despite the central spot, it was a relaxing haven, though slight decor wear hints at ongoing renovations. Transportation is effortless, with Adelaide Central Station opposite for trains to the airport (7km, 15 mins) or Glenelg Beach (40-min tram). Buses and trams are steps away, and valet parking is available, though tight for larger cars. The Adelaide Convention Centre is a 600m walk. The staff, especially Anisa, Varisha, and Janvi, were exceptional, keeping my room spotless with warm smiles. Dining at La Boca Bar and Grill and nearby Gouger and Leigh Streets offers culinary variety. Minor dated fixtures aside, Stamford Plaza’s location and hospitality make it a great Adelaide base."

"Love the location and the Ocean View Balcony Room offer a very reasonable upgrade from Ocean View Room. The Promenade Restaurant, The Horizon Cocktail Bar was a great evening of bubbles, canapes and a delicious dinner. A great mini break."

"I stay here often as I like the comfortable bed, soft lighting, ease of parking underneath and proximity to the river for a morning walk. Also like the artwork featured in the rooms and halls. Dislike how the lighting controls glow in the dark, I always pack an eye mask to overcome that. I don’t like their coffee or breakfast so skip that. "

"Did not realize I should have received a perk…. Still enjoyed the room!"

"We didn’t get to explore the restaurants in the area as we did the vineyards. But the SA magazine have some great ideas for cafes/ breakfast. Everything was fairly central and easy to drive to. "

"Perfect location, close to central market and Rundle mall.L Always great service and lovely staff. I recommend booking the breakfast package. Great buffet."

"It's not often I describe a hotel stay as memorable. We had a fantastic stay at The Playford Adelaide. "
