Reviews for The Playford Adelaide

We visit Adelaide every year for business and usually stay in five-star hotels. This year, we decided to try this one, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a big disappointment and is definitely not up to the standard of other hotels in the same category in the city. We stayed eight nights in a Junior Suite Studio: at first glance, the room seemed pleasant, but we experienced several issues: Poor climate control: when we arrived, the temperature in the room was 17°C and it wasn’t possible to increase it. Throughout our stay, we had to use an electric heater in the bathroom because the radiator was undersized, and without the air conditioning running constantly, the room quickly became cold. Lack of cleanliness: the carpet was never vacuumed during our entire 8-day stay. Combined with the outdated air conditioning system, this caused me asthma problems throughout the visit, while my husband developed a sore throat. Limited services: the room had no coat rack, the minibar was never restocked, and the bath salts for the bathtub were not replenished. Moreover, housekeeping was often delayed — several times, even past 1 PM, the room still hadn’t been cleaned despite my repeated requests. Unpleasant view: for a Junior Suite, we expected at least a decent outlook, but instead, our room faced the wall of the opposite building, which made the atmosphere feel closed and uninviting. Disappointing breakfast: for a five-star hotel, it’s truly embarrassing. The buffet is very limited, with hardly any dessert options, and the overall quality is far below what you would expect from a hotel of this category. I regret having to write such a negative review, but those who choose a five-star hotel do so expecting comfort, quality, and impeccable service. Unfortunately, this property falls well short of those standards.

Loved my stay! The room was incredibly comfortable, breakfast had a great spread and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Also, given its spot at the top of the CBD, it's easy to walk to multiple great attractions, cafes, and restaurants. The private car park was a real boon given I had a rental car. There were some problems with the boom gates while I was there, but the staff were always on-hand and quick to help when needed.

I had a fantastic stay at The Playford Hotel. The hotel itself is beautiful, elegant design with a classic feel, but also fresh and modern where it matters. I stayed in one of the suites, which was massive, stylish, and very comfortable. The service was excellent throughout, professional, welcoming, and always helpful. I had lunch at the restaurant, which was absolutely delicious, and the bar area is stunning, a perfect spot to unwind with a drink. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. It’s a great hotel with charm, comfort, and great hospitality all around.

We stayed at the Playford after our wedding for a couple of nights and then came back for our 6-month anniversary. Both times it was divine! The service was wonderful, and the staff go above and beyond, and the breakfast was delicious. Thank you for having us Playford team, highly recommend to anyone looking for a little high-end night or two away!

Five star experience. Exceeded my expectations in all aspects. The New York Style Loft Suite was spacious, comfortable and with all desired amenities. Great location on North Terrace. Particularly outstanding was front office manager Melissa, who made sure we could kick-start our Adelaide experience with great recommendations.
