Very comfortable especially the bed. Staff professional and friendly. Small table and chairs appreciated. Food tasty by room service. Rundle Mall 20 to 30min walk. Parkland train Terminal can be reached by a bus along West Terrace, onto Anzac Terrace, alighting at stop 1. Cross Anzac Terrace, then a short walk to the Terminal.

All good

I thought the room was exceptionally well designed. There were outlets and USB ports on either side of the bed as well as at the desk; the balcony was compact and did not allow anyone to look into the room. The shower was spacious. The blackout curtains did their job, and the lighter curtains allowed a wonderful view of the sunrise. The location was very convenient to reach the railway station and the farmers’ market at Adelaide showground. It was easy to reach the hotel via bus from the airport. Would definitely book again.

Didn’t have any complaints! The rooftop and swimming pool were unremarkable, but I didn’t book the place with any expectation for either.

The room was a good size and the bed very comfortable.The location was convenient for the onward travel I had planned and there was a free shuttle to the station I was leaving from. Fast food restaurants close by and the cafe at the property provided tasty breakfasts. Not far to other restaurants.

Water pressure in the room was poor. The air-conditioner could not keep the room warm and kept switching off even though timer not set. No free bottles of water supplied as is the case in most hotels of this price range at which I have stayed. I had to walk to the nearest supermarket to buy water as those in the mini-bar were hugely overpriced.

The staff were super friendly and accommodating, the rooms were very clean and comfortable and the hotel overall was fantastic. Contrary to what others have said in their reviews, we didn’t have any issue with noise from the restaurant/bar even though we were in very close proximity and there were functions on most nights of our stay. Our room was also very clean and dust free. The staff were so lovely and super helpful with letting us store our luggage before check in. Everything about this hotel and our stay was perfect! I will definitely be recommending this hotel to others and I will definitely be back if I’m ever in Adelaide again. Thanks!

the King bed is sooo Huge it was awesome and super comfortable, we never had their breakfast but their coffee very very good, prices in the restaurant a little pricey i thought but its not a cheep hotel and its a classy restaurant we did use the room service and we found it to be very good and hot the staff are great.. the Courtesy vehicle driver Tony very friendly it felt like a friend was taking you in to town..

the only minor complaint is that the spa was loud and one day i felt the house cleaning was a little quick, Lazy or new on the job.. not wiping the full length of the basin bench certainly not big issues .

This is a very easy hotel to navigate to, drive into and out of, so close to the CBD. We didn't go into the CBD itself, but did require parking and we were fortunate that their on site secure parking still had some spaces left when we arrived. Our room was clean, comfortable and quiet. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. We'd included breakfast in our package and it was one of the best buffet breakfasts I've experienced. Delicious food and a good range of hot and cold options.

I'd have liked to have been able to reserve a parking space at the time of booking our room, but for some reason this is not an available option. We were part way through a long road trip and had all manner of photographic and snorkelling gear with us, so didn't want to park on the street. It would have been good to have the reassurance that we'd be able to park on site as we didn't relish the idea of having to unpack the car and drag everything up to our room for one night. Luckily it worked out OK for us.

We loved our Stay at Rydges South Park. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Bed was the comfiest I've ever slept on in a hotel. Room was very clean and lovely updated decor. Pool area was clean and neat. Check in was great considering a huge group came in before us the hotel reception stayed calm & polite and got through the rush period quickly and were kind enough to drop us to the airport on check out. Great coffee from lovely Baristas in downstairs cafe. Location was brilliant, loved the bars and restaurants in the area awesome pub just up the road and 500m walk along a beautiful park got us to the free tram into the City so we were very happy.

Customer service was excellent starting from our first point of contact with the concierge and continuing through to all of the staff including the cleaner as we left. Dinner at the level 6 restaurant was to die for and the view was outstanding. The buffet breakfast was awesome spanning from their sweet and savory treats to their healthy alternatives, the juices were high powered and awesome. All aspects of the Hotel were very clean i.e. the rooms, amenities, the pool and gym etc. Although I thought the parking fee was a bit high, I did like the fact that if you spent over $60 on a meal they waive the parking fee.

Nothing!!!!!! It was ALL Good!!!!!!

Rydges and the management of this property are to be commended. The friendly staff!!!!. The very large clean well appointed rooms with a small balcony are excellent. We had a view over the park which was so relaxing. We could walk into the city its half and hour but we enjoyed seeing the neighborhoods. We had dinner at a fantastic local pub 2 blocks away. They provide parking with a small charge which is well worth it. We did not use the pool or restaurant but we would if we returned. They were putting up the Xmas tree the day we left. Fantastic. Value for money hands down. Would definitely stay again.
