Terrible experience with the staff upon check out 😡 After having said we could check out lately, this dark haired lady at the reception on this 21 November 2025 charged my work colleague without previous warning ! Such behaviour is properly unacceptable and so rude. I’has checked and the lady servicing rooms was busy with at least 2 other rooms, so there was no reason to charge us 😱 I am travelling over 100 days per year since years I don’t recall such bad behaviour. Small boss using her little power, shameful and pitiful attitude, the little amount charged will never match the disastrous image of Rockford brand this lady is leaving. Plus we had paid an incredible high price for the night, well over the listed price today, due to our inviting party having booked in advance. Need to mention my room was stuck in between 2 rooms with reconstruction works 😰 I’ll make sure to let them know NOT to book Rockford hotels ANY LONGER.

Very surprised with room. Neat and clean and not tiny as some hotel rooms are. The bed and pillows where soft. The air con didn't work properly. Staff friendly. Rooftop pool is gorgeous. Bit cold this time of year but if you come in summer months it be perfect. I recommend this hotel .

We booked a single night stay at Rockford Adelaide for a date night. Check in was easy & staff were friendly. We parked our car in their basement carpark. It was a bit of a tight squeeze to enter the carpark through the lane way but the parking spaces inside were quite roomy. We made our way up to our room on the third floor. We had booked a room with a spa & balcony. The room was a decent size & clean, but appeared a little old/in need of an upgrade in some areas. First thing we noticed was the corner spa at the rear of the room. It’s not in the bathroom or sectioned off, so no privacy. The spa was clean & working. The separate bathroom was clean, with a large shower & vanity/sink/mirror. There were pump bottles of shampoo etc in the shower and hand soap & lotion near the sink. The sink did have a drainage issue as the built in plug wouldn’t stay up on its own. We had to manually lift it to let the water drain. There were plenty of towels & wash cloths, although the towels are tiny so if you’re on the larger side, maybe bring your own. The toilet also appeared quite small & my partner being big & tall was a little concerned it was going to break off the wall if he sat on it.lol but it was fine. The king size bed was clean, comfortable & soft. The TV was average size & worked well, but it’s a shame that it wasn’t a smart TV. No Netflix for us, just regular free to air. The bar fridge was very small & was missing the rails for the door shelves so only the main shelving could be used. The small freezer section did not freeze anything we put in there in the 20 hours. There was a few little milk portions & 2 bottles of water that we didn’t touch as we weren’t sure if they were complimentary or not. The room had a kettle, tea/coffee/sugar, cups & glasses. An iron & ironing board, hair dryer. There were 2 robes (that did not fit us) and two pairs of slippers (that also didn’t fit my partner) that we didn’t use. The real let down for us was that we paid extra for a balcony so we didn’t have to go downstairs to have a cigarette onky to find out once in the room that smoking even on the balcony was not permitted. It was also extremely narrow. Not even a chair would fit so it’s standing room only. Kinda pointless really. Overall our stay was fine. It was clean & tidy & close to everything in the city but honestly, there are better options with the same or better amenities for less money per night within a 2 minute walk, such as the Oaks hotels on north terrace. We enjoyed our evening but don’t think it was worth almost $400 per night & we will be staying elsewhere next time we decide to have a date night in town.

XX IN REGARDS TO YOUR REPLY THERE WAS NOTHING DISRESPECTFUL ABOUT ME STATING THE RECEPTIONIST WAS ASIAN - SHE WAS - I DID NOT CALL HER A RACIST TERM I WAS SIMPLY STATING A FACT SHE IS ASIAN - I WAS ALSO STATING A FACT WHEN I SAID HER ENGLISH WAS LACKING - DO YOU NOT WANT YOUR STAFF TO BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR CLIENTS??? I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE HOSPITALITY 101 THE BARE MINIMUM OF SERVICE BIZARRE YOU WOULD THINK OTHERWISE AND YES TRAIN YOUR STAFF THEY’RE IGNORANT AS TO WHAT YOU DO AND DONT PROVIDE AGAIN 101! -Rang to enquire about Christmas lunch. The Asian receptionist could not understand a word I was saying. Was put on hold. She then addressed me again and said if they have numbers of 20 or more they’ll host Christmas lunch. I said we have a table of 5. If 15 more ppl call you’ll host Christmas lunch then? Then I said the logical so how will I know if 15 more ppl call or not in which case you’ll be hosting the lunch? Eg take down my details and let me know. She was confused. I gave up. All too hard. What hotel doesn’t host Christmas lunch? Where will the ppl staying there be dining??? So odd. Will be spending our $ at the Hilton.

Well located, very clean and comfortable room. On arrival, the receptionist was very welcoming and helpful. She was extremely helpful and advised of meals etc. that were available from the hotel's restaurant / bar. Overall great experience, great hospitality.
