Hotel in zona Life Christian Centre, Adelaide

Abbiamo goduto il nostro soggiorno al Hilton Adelaide. Situazione molto conveniente e vista magnifica

We stayed here for a two night break, lured in by the stylized photographs. The hotel itself was built in 1926, and I think the rooms were last refurbished around 1976 the furniture is old and dated. The med was comfortable, but we found some serious stains on the bedding. The location is excellent for trams and access to Rundle St Mall, however being so close to Hi key Street means that there are council street sweeper trucks passing around 430am ever morning. Also, the lane way that has access to the hotel had a few undesirable characters camping in the doorway of the hotel, and having a little drink and argument to themselves quite late. The cold water tap in the bathroom didn’t work. We alerted the hotel reception who told us there was someone booked to come and fix it whilst we were out. When we returned it had not been fixed. We told the receptionist that it hasn’t been fixed so if the plumber had billed them, then he hadn’t done his job. Finally, the hotel policy has a clause for “night workers” who are to “escort their guests out of the building and ensure the security fort is closed” I wasn’t quite sure what that meant at first, but it didn’t take long for the penny to drop. Several times during the night there was a rhythmic banging of the headboard in the adjacent room ….. business must have been good! Overall, I guess you get what you pay for. We lamented over the additional $20 a night extra we could have spent to have a much nicer hotel, just an extra block away from being smack bang in the middle of the city.

Le attrezzature della stanza sono molto complete, il letto è molto comodo, ma sono morbide ma hanno abbastanza spazzole che non possono dormire.Ci sono lavastoviglie e asciugamani, utensili da cucina, e la posizione geografica è molto buona.

We are still waiting for a call back with regards to a lost white soft toy which housekeeping has mistakenly removed while changing the beddings. That soft toy has sentimental values to my son and it’s traveled everywhere with him. We have been told we’ll receive a call and it will be posted back but no news yet. It has been 3 weeks since we left.

The hotel is located on a side road which is easily missed.We had to take another turn to locate it. Car parking is at a public location just down the road. The hotel which is fairly new is well equipped and conveniently located within walking distance of Rundle Mall and the train station. The only complaint I have is that the water draining from the shower area may overflow into the toilet area and entrance to the toilet. Apart from this minor issue,the hotel is excellent in most aspects. The staff are responsive and pleasant. As a side note,Club 129 down the alley and opposite the train station,serves a decent meal with promotions throughout the week.

Ubicato vicino al centro, ma ben servito dai mezzi pubblici, che all’interno del centro città, sono gratuiti. Diversi caffè bar e ristoranti nelle vicinanze. Camera un po’ datata, servirebbe un po’ di manutenzione. Per un paio di notti é ok.

Deciso di provare il bistro dell'Hotel Arkaba due volte durante il mio soggiorno a Adelaide. Sono felice di averlo fatto. Anche se questo è un enorme complesso che ha bistro, pochi, bar sportivo e alloggio, è un luogo amico della famiglia che è ben protetto. Quando ero lì venerdì e domenica sera, la sala da pranzo era piena di ricchezze, con cena prima di teatro/commedia e feste di compleanno, oltre al solito pranzo casuale. Venerdì sera ho provato il pane di aglio con formaggio, che aveva una buona densità, grigliato perfettamente con formaggio stretto, e poi ho avuto la carne di carne con salsa di funghi. La sniffa era crudele e mi piaceva davvero la salsa di funghi - molte di quelle in una possibile crema di zuppa di funghi. Quando tornai domenica, avevo fumato il filetto di scotch, ancora una volta con salsa di funghi, non avevo bisogno del salsa, perché la torta aveva un bel sapore di fumo che si trovava da sola. Ho ordinato il mio mezzo, e era cotto perfettamente. La salata di César era fresca e deliziosa, e il vestito non era troppo pesante; le chips erano ancora una volta disgustose, ma l’unico lato era il doppio anello di lino, che avrebbe potuto fare un po’ più lungo nel frigo. Il bistro contiene anche numerosi schermi televisivi che mostrano sport e selezioni di stazioni commerciali. In generale, la prossima volta che visito Adelaide, torno all'Hotel Arkaba per un pasto.

Il servizio era buono. Perché le zone di lavanderia erano comuni, erano mantenute pulite e igienica. Il personale è anche amichevole. In generale il mio soggiorno era buono e comodo.

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.
