“Adabco's past as a boys' home adds a layer of intrigue to its boutique charm, with surprisingly spacious rooms and a staff that clearly cares. Its location places guests within easy reach of Adelaide's attractions, while communal kitchens encourage a sense of community. I think the building's Venetian Gothic architecture makes it a memorable alternative to the standard hotel experience.”

The breakfast location was quite a walk , about 300 meters from the hotel. That was inconvenient when needing to catch an early flight. Also , the staff member at check-in did not seem very friendly or cute.

Adequate Stay with Some Issues

ineffective air conditioningcracked tiles
The air conditioning in my room was not effective , and it struggled to cool the space. This made for an uncomfortable night, especially given the weather. I also noticed some wear and tear in the bathroom , with a leaky faucet and some cracked tiles. These issues detracted from the overall experience.

excellent locationfascinating historyhelpful staffresponsive staff
I found the location excellent. the hotel offered great access to many places i wanted to visit. the building features a fascinating history, going back to the late 19th century. i also appreciated the helpful and responsive staff. They were always available to answer questions.
i noticed that the carpet needs upgrading throughout the hotel. a change to the fridge door swing would improve access.

the bathroom was a bit tight. the shower door lacked a closing mechanism, so water spilled onto the bathroom floor after each shower.
