Hotels near Rotunda, Adelaide

Loved our four day stay at Ibis Adelaide. Fabulous location, close to Rundle Mall, Galleries, Arts precinct and everything Adelaide has to offer. Friendly service. Spotlessly clean. Parked our car for four days but only charged as we exited only on Day 4 at a cost of $24. Charges during stay are per exit so local public transport was all we needed. Would stay here again.

The property is conveniently located on the North Terrace among the campus of University of South Australia. Hotel parking was limited but it was not a problem of us as we were mostly out early in the morning for sightseeing and only back after dinner. Hence we parked our car along Liverpool St which offered free overnight parking. The Oval, Railway Station and Rundle Mall are all a few minutes walk away. We were given a corner room on the 2nd floor which was HUGE. The room was slightly dated but it was clean and functional.

Do NOT GO to the restaurant, Koomo, on the 10th floor for dinner. The worst service we have had in any Crowne Plaza, or in any restaurant in Adelaide, and the most incompetent management to fix a very trivial issue. Last night my wife and I had booked a table for 6 people - two clients and two colleagues from Sydney and Perth.  The restaurant was about half full when we arrived. There were only 2 waitresses working in the restaurant, and it took us more than half an hour to be given menus, and a wine order to be taken.  It took another 20 minutes, after asking many times, for our food order to be taken. Two of our guests ordered a la carte from the menu,  and the other four wanted to try the ”tasting menu” - more expensive than the al la carte menu, with various preset courses. This is where things really started to go wrong. The tasting menu consisted of a choice between beef and chicken. Three people wanted beef and the other person wanted chicken.We were told by the waitress that the kitchen would not cook only one chicken for one person, and that two people would have to have this - in other words the four people could be served either all beef, or 2 chicken + 2 beef, but not 1 chicken and 3 beef. We really thought the waitress was joking, but realised she was serious. We asked her, very politely, if she could have a word with the kitchen and try to arrange this ”difficult” request. Some 15 minutes later the waitress returned and told us that it was not possible and the kitchen was not prepared to cook only one portion of chicken - it must be two portions and somebody else in our group wanting beef should cancel his beef and eat chicken instead. We asked to see the manager to see if he could sort this out, and very clearly told the waitress that if we could not get the food we wanted from the menu, then we would leave and go to another restaurant. No manager came to see us, but the waitress returned and told us that she had discussed with the manager and that the kitchen still refused to cook only one portion of chicken. We were not impressed. We paid the bill for the wine,  put on our coats and left the restaurant. As we were leaving someone from management (hotel or restaurant?) came to us and asked if we could reconsider and stay, and he would ”try” and convince the kitchen. Too late - our first experience of trying the Koomo restaurant had already been spoiled - poor service from the beginning and no feeling whatsoever for handling customers, and not any attempt to fix the very minor point of what we wanted to order by the management, until we were actually leaving.  I do not blame the waitress - she was caught in the middle with no support from the kitchen staff or the management. This is absolutely a management issue - one of making sure that all staff are trying their best to give good service to their customers, especially if the restaurant is selling itself as a high end one. Needless to say none of the six of us will go back,  and a

The hotel is located in the city center, with excellent location and convenient transportation. It is a one-minute walk to the central market and there are many shops and restaurants nearby. The room is spacious, the open kitchen is fully equipped, and all tableware and utensils are available. The terrace has an open view. The waiters were friendly. We stayed for 9 days and were very satisfied. Will stay again next year.

Great service. Amazing location, next to Victoria Square. Staffs are extremely helpful. Recommend to everyone who wants to have a quality holiday in Adelaide.

This is a very new hotel (opened within the last 12 months and is a new build) and it was an excellent stay. At check in I was greeted by an incredibly friendly person at reception and was promptly given a room key for a room on the 10th floor (of eleven) which had an excellent view! The bed in the room was incredibly comfortable with pillows that more than met my incredibly picky tastes in pillows. The bathroom was well laid out and had liquid hand soap for washing your hands which I always appreciate seeing. The TV in the room had Foxtel channels plus also had inbuilt Chromecast support for casting your streaming apps to it which is also something I've grown to love in hotels and wish more did this! The hotel was in a good location for the city although I'm not sure what the hotel's official parking arrangements are - because I was staying on the weekend, I ended up parking at the KPark outdoor parking area on the corner of Angas and Pulteney Streets (about three minutes walk away) which charged $4 for 12 hours of parking. There are also bus stops right outside the hotel and you can easily walk further up Pulteney Street to get to bus stops to other parts of town. I was very impressed with all aspects of my stay here and would happily stay here in again in the future without question, but I do have one suggestion - another bin in the room would be nice, as the only bin I could find was a small one in the bathroom and I filled it in about thirty seconds after I put my takeout rubbish in it.

The room was comfy; The TV was a good size; The bed was a king size & good to sleep on. We had a buffet breakfast & dinner each day. The staff managed to keep up the service. The food was ok. The staff was extremely busy & run off their feet. A big thank you to Christian & Jane for looking after us. The site is the perfect location. Close to the city & landmarks. An ideal base to travel from to tourist destinations. We loved it.

We have stayed at the Walkers Arms a number of times. The man reason is the rooms are spotlessly clean with great beds and they’re spacious. Parking is onsite and free, we like that and it is within easy reach of te city. You can drive to the city in five minutes or get a bus at the front door, almost. But the best thing about the hotel is the team who look after guests and freshen up our rooms. They are so friendly, helpful and love a chat and they’re always interested in what we are doing for the day. They are a tell credit to the Walkers Arms and the reason we keep coming back.

Really clean and modern apartment with two good size bedrooms. The kitchen has an oven, dishwasher and all the electrical and cutlery you need. Perfect for families who may not always want to eat out all the time. Friendly staff. Woolworths is a 5-10 mins walk away. There is also Jenny’s bakery 15 mins walk along Glen Osmond Road towards the city who serves a great coffee and amazing pastries baked onsite! It’s only a 5-10 mins drive into Adelaide. Only feedback I have is the Block C 102 ground floor apartment we were appointed to could get very noisy with all the door slamming of people going in and out of the building. It can be really loud when you are sleeping since the apartment is right next to the foyer doors. Will consider staying again when we next visit Adelaide.

The Grand is without a doubt all about the location! Given it’s ocean front position it should offer an absolute premium experience but instead falls a little short as it continues to date without much sign of refurbishment. The rooms are basic, the carpets old, the furnishings aging and everything just feels in need of some love. Bathrooms still have showers over the bath with shower curtains and the air con in the room wasn’t very effective (too hot despite being on the coolest setting). There was also a wedding being hosted during my 1 night stay and despite my room being on the 5th floor (ballroom is on level 1), I could hear the band/music until the end of the reception at 11:30pm. On the positive (besides premium location), the staff at reception / concierge were excellent. They greeted with absolute care on arrival and happiness during check out, despite being early in the morning. It felt like they enjoyed what they did and that’s so good to see in customer facing roles. Worth considering this hotel for a stay, just as long as you’re happy with basic ammenities in a great location.
