Adelaide Riviera Hotel

We stayed at the Adelaide River Hotel for four nights during our visit to Adelaide and South Australia. The hotel is very convenient and well located—only about six minutes from the city centre. You can also easily access the free tram service in Adelaide, which makes getting around very easy. Although it’s not right in the city centre, everything is very close and walkable if you enjoy walking. The location is excellent, close to the Royal Adelaide Hospital and the railway station. There is also a free tram right in front of the hotel, and it takes just two minutes to reach the city. Our stay was fabulous, and we really enjoyed the room and overall comfort of the hotel. The only minor issue was that there wasn’t enough milk provided—only a small number of milk cubes for the four-day stay. We didn’t request room service, but if we had asked, they may have replenished it. There also weren’t nearby places to easily buy milk or small items. The hotel has a 24-hour front desk, although we didn’t need to use it during our stay as we managed everything ourselves. Overall, I highly recommend the Adelaide River Hotel if you’re looking for a budget-friendly hotel with a good rating, great location, and easy access to the city.

Its nice enough. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms are a bit outdated. The shower was difficult to adjust for our son it was just spraying into his face. It was close enough to the tram line. No real complaints. We would come back here if it was necessary to visit Adelaide again.

Stayed here for a couple of nights just to get a taste of the city. Hotel was well situated for our purposes & was a reasonable cost. Yes, improvements can be made & possibly should be in the case of the bathrooms, but still everything was clean & functional, the staff were friendly & helpful so all in all a solid 4 out of 5 as any issues are minor & would not stop me staying here again.

The Manager upgraded my room. Lovely hotel. Spacey. All amenities are there. Comfortable. Cleaners haven't done their job properly. A lot of issues. Other than that all good. Parking is available.

Rooms spacious and clean. We had a spa in pur bathroom set it all up only for it not to work. Called reception oh sorry they are deactivated in some rooms. Cl9se to RAH. Not many cafes nearby so need to go further up kindly street. Easy check in no other issues.

Rooms are adequate, tea and coffee and biscuits, complimentary. Bathroom well supplied, with soap, shampoo, conditioner and shaving foam. This is very good for a hotel of this star rating. No food on site. Which helps you go out and explore and lots of food nearby after a short or long walk, depending on preference. Location of hotel is perfect for access to transport in all directions and airport only 20 minutes drive.

I’d certainly recommend this hotel as a great budget friendly option in Adelaide CBD. The staff here were friendly, and rooms were always cleaned amazingly. The view from the room is great and was amazing to see Adelaide for the first time. The location of the hotel is beautifully close to transport, although not much food places nearby, so it’s around a 15 minute walk to the main area of CBD near Rundle Mall. Adelaide Rivera Hotel is located very close to the Adelaide Hospital and UniSA. One thing to keep in mind: parking isn’t free, it’s $25 per night, but usually there is always enough space to park. Also the soundproofing is not amazing, one night, people in the room next to me were talking loudly all night and I had trouble sleeping, so bring some headphones if you’re sensitive to noise just in case. Overall, great value hotel in the Adelaide CBD! Would recommend this.

It's a lovely quaint place, and has quite old bathrooms but they are super clean and everything is neat. The rooms are very cold even with the heating on, now in July. The pillows smell of probably every person who had slept on them. Need to consider a new cleaning contract for pillows and blankets? Also, no warm blankets for winter. Otherwise, location is great and the concierge staff are friendly.

The comfort hotel in Adelaide is a great place to stay when visiting. Our room was large and comfortable. The hotel is right on the free tram line, so it was convenient to get anywhere in the city. There were also cute restaurants and areas to go walking nearby to the hotel. I would stay there again.

All aspects of my stay were great, Rebecca on reception was so helpful and friendly on my early arrival, free M/C secure parking at the rear was also a bonus with me. Short walk to all you need to have a awesome meal or a relaxing beer or two.

So it doesn't look as nice from the outside...........but it's much better once you go inside! They primarily do accomodation, conferences and weddings but am sure they could assist with any function at all. They do serve breakfast and dinner 7 days a week from their restaurant but with so many choices in the city unless you are really lazy, which then you would order room service anyway, I doubt many would use the restaurant. They do have free Wi-Fi but only in the communal area's it seems, like the lobby and restaurant. In the rooms they have broadband internet access. Speaking of rooms - they have a huge selection here. They basically have standard, deluxe, family and spa rooms (both standard and executive suites) plus a Honeymoon suite. They've got a great online booking site with heaps of special deals or packages available. My favourite tho.........the "secret room". Basically it is usually whatever they have available, but it can be anything not already booked or cancelled at the last minute. So they are usually really cheap (under $100 a night) but the secret is - you don't find out what room you get until you check in - it could be a standard room, which is fine for the price, or it could be an executive suite. The excitement of this novelty makes me want to just go book one now!

So close to Adelaide oval and the Casino, Tram outside takes you to Glenelg. Nice rooms, fresh and clean and easy parking! Great Staff, nice views and Excellent Breakfast.

Enjoying a wonderful stay at the Adelaide Riviera! The staff are extremely professional very friendly and welcoming. Fantastic location close to restaurants, entertainment, shops etc - with trams close by to move you around the city. The room is immaculately clean with everything you need and more. Highly recommended!
