Oval Hotel at Adelaide Oval

We booked 3 rooms for a family of 6. The rooms are close to each other, which is handy. All the rooms are comfortable, clean with the facilities required. We are in the Southern swing, facing the river with the view of the city, with the mix of tranquility and scattered high rises, view is unique and beautiful. Though rooms aren’t too big, but their modern decor and bright colour scheme enhance their comfort level. We had dinner and breakfast in the hotel restaurant with good food and friendly service. Overall a highly satisfactory stay.

Atmosphere, originality , staff friendliness and efficiency, location

When we entered the room, we were greeted with a wonderful view of the parklands and cathedral. The tv was on with a personalised welcome message, and the room smelt fresh and clean; The provided tablet was also personalised, which was also a pleasant surprise. The room provides plenty of opportunity to just close the door when you arrive and then stay in your own little bubble if you so wish. The digital setup allows you to make contact with room service without the need to call and speak to someone and the television has a chromecast attached so you can use your phone to connect to your own streaming services. The rooms are reasonably soundproof, we heard no voices/sounds for the neighbour rooms but we did hear every time our neighbour stomped back and forth in their room. The food was satisfyingly tasty and arrived in the room hot.

Very close to CBD, but much nicer to be in the lovely parkland setting of the hotel. Good facilities in rooms, such as coffee maker, lights, curtains etc. digitally controlled by tablet, you can book taxis through it too, very helpful. The bar is pleasant, and we really enjoyed eating outdoors on the terrace, with that fantastic view of the Oval. Even got to see a game being played. Didn't eat in the restaurant itself, only from bar menu, but other guests commented to us on how good the food was.

The staff were lovely, so friendly and helpful especially the night concierge M. He was fantastic, happy to help despite the late hour of our arrival. Our room had two separate and gorgeous views - city and catherdral. It was quiet and clean. The room had an extra bed as requested and the room and bathroom were spacious. All the beds and pillows - heaven, so comfortable like sleeping on a cloud. And coffee machine and guest bathrobes a plus. Room service and food exceptional. Loved the automatic curtains, lighting and movies on demand etc. Location - easy and pretty walk to WCH and Rundle Mall. And the leisure centre access was fantastic too. Easiest parking in Adelaide.
