The location was convenient, opposite railway station and close by tram and bus stops. We requested quiet room with walk in shower and it was great. Room was spacious and clean. Prompt service from the room service/ concierge. We enjoyed the indoor swimming pool and spa. The swimming pool water could be warmer. The dark chocolate orange drink near the concierge was delicious. Ricky at the concierge was helpful and welcoming, making us feel like home.

Fantastic mini stay-cay at this gorgeous accommodation. Staff were just brilliant and we loved our rooms, the amenities, and our buffet breakfast was amazing! Perfectly positioned to walk everywhere we needed to go and especially to Adelaide Oval for the footy! Our stay was thoroughly enjoyed by all of us, especially my two nephews.

The Playford is a great hotel. We booked a one bedroom suite and it was clean and spacious. Our first room (106) was AMAZING! Nice and large and roomy. But it was directly over the garage collection and sewage drainage. So we heard the garbage trucks and sewage trucks early in the morning. So we asked to be moved and they put us in an accessible room (221), which was still nice but no where near as nice as the one we moved from. The shower was open and only had a curtain around it and was directly by the toilet. So whenever we showered the entire floor around the toilet was full of water and the floor was extremely slippery. So we had to use towels on the floor to keep from slipping. Food at the Luma was very good. A little pricey but that is to be expected for hotel food. Also in a great location - directly across from the train station and a tram stop. Tram and busses are free to a certain point. Walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. Will definitely stay again.

Easy check in with friendly staff. The loft room was beautiful. Everything was catered for. We had breakfast included and the only downfall was not being advised that barista coffee was an extra charge. The location is great for exploring the CBD. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and will be back.

Overall Experience: My family and I recently stayed at the Playford Adelaide, and while we were generally satisfied, there were some inconsistencies that, in my opinion, need addressing for a hotel of this caliber. Positive Aspects: 1. 2. The room size was generous, which was a definite plus for our family. Overall, from check-in to check-out, the staff were friendly and helpful. Areas for Improvement: 1. Accor Gold Membership Recognition: As an Accor Gold member, I was a bit disappointed that there was no mention of a room upgrade during check-in. I understand that upgrades are subject to availability, but it would have been nice to have been acknowledged. Additionally, while the free gift entitlement was mentioned, it was not actually provided. This isn't a major issue, but it's a perk I've consistently received at other Accor properties. 2. Inconsistent Service: The service was not always consistent. One particular incident highlighted this: it took over an hour to have a bath mat delivered to our room. I had to call twice and eventually go down to the front desk in person to resolve the issue. This occurred around 6:45 PM. There also seemed to be some confusion among the front office team regarding this request. As a 5-star hotel, I expect a higher level of service consistency. 3. Housekeeping: The housekeeping service could be improved. On one occasion, the room was not cleaned to a satisfactory standard, as I found some hairs in the room after it had been serviced.
