InterContinental Adelaide

With the amount of blatant extortionate prices they would charge for things, or add on top of things. I felt like I was staying in a cheap hotel that makes their money by charging for absolutely everything. You’d think a five star hotel would have certain things included in the price. You want to watch a movie in your room?! $18.99 for a new release, when the same movie costs $6 on google play. You want to pay $20 for an already incredibly over priced, small desert from room service?! Add another $6 on top for “tray service”. I can’t deny the room was clean, service excellent and bed comfortable. But those blatant cash grabs left such a bad taste in my mouth.

We had two rooms booked - and one was ready early but the other wasn't ready until well after 3pm, which was a little annoying. It is a great hotel with all the perks.

We ate once in Riverside restaurant, (dinner). We arrived at 5.30pm. There were food scraps under the table all over the floor. The waitress was excellent as was the cocktail waiter. The food was dry and tasteless. I spend 150 nights a year in hotels and cannot remember more exhausted, underwhelming food, (in both conception and execution), with the possible exception of a hotel near San Jose Airport . The martini’s were outstanding however.

Nice staff clean and convenient to the city 👍

Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Only caveat would be that the oom was a bit tired and could do with a refurb; but that didn't impact on the quality of my stay really.
