    “Exceptional 5-Star Stay for Our 43rd Anniversary! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My wife and I stayed at The Playford Adelaide for two nights to celebrate our 43rd anniversary. The hotel kindly upgraded us to a beautiful, spotlessly clean room with a balcony, great view, and an absolutely beautiful spa bath that was pristine and ready to use. The staff were wonderful, friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. We also found the car park across the road very convenient and well-priced at $34 a night with unlimited entry and exit. It was a perfect, flawless trip. We highly recommend The Playford!”

  • Lovely overnight stop, check in was simple and they were happy for us to check out at midday
