If you have any alternative - or,frankly, any self respect - don't stay here. It's a terrible place with largely terrible staff. At one point a staff member kept me waiting for an hour then offered to fight me because I wasn't terribly chatty! On my last visit a staff member kept me waiting half an hour then lied about...

We stayed here for one night prior to catching The Ghan. From my experience all cheap airport motels are the same. Overpriced and substandard - but hey, they usually have a captive audience. This one was OK. 5 min walk from airport, no noise from the airport, dated but clean and we found the staff very helpful and friendly. We... More

Reasonable prices compared to WA. 1 min from airport. Restaurant food was nice. Shuttle bus service was great and driver friendly. Reception girl rude, smug and unhelpful. Ikea just across the road, so was fun to kill some time.

6 months before travelling, we had booked one night at this hotel prior to an early morning flight to Perth. On checking in we were bitterly disappointed to be given a ground floor room directly on the busy street, with a window which didn't close. We refused the room and were given another - we were told the only other... More

For an overnight stay and an early flight out the next day, this hotel was fine. Room was ok, and staff helpful although do not be surprised if there is a long queue to check out in time for the day's first flights. The surrounds are not the place to go anywhere easily, at least not on foot; however the... More

I stayed one night here and it fit all my needs. I just needed a no hassle inexpensive place to stay before my next day flight. It is close enough to walk but $3 AUS shuttle bus service was a plus. Everythihg I needed was on the premises. I didn't need to search for a restaurant or take an expensive... More

Location is all this place has going for it, with a 5 minute walk to the airport. Decor is dated, tacky and grubby. Dimly lit rooms only add to the seedy appearance and preclude any activity requiring vision, even seeing the keyboard of this computer. No reading lights anywhere, least of all over the beds, and the only TV was... More

Adelaide isn't a traffic-heavy city so it doesn't take long to get somewhere nicer, so only stay here if you arrive really late or need to depart to the airport very, very early. The rooms are ok-ish but a bit tired and the atmosphere downstairs is a little odd.

We stayed one night at the Adelaide Airport Motel. The motel is about a 15 minute walk from the airport terminal; look for the IKEA as the motel is across the street. If you don’t want to walk, the hotel has its own shuttle available at $3AUD/person. The motel is a very convenient place for an overnight stay when in... More

Great loaction. You can drop your bags at the motel, take your hiore car back to the car rental and then walk (5 minutes) back to the hotel. The rooms need renovating and a really good clean. The restuarant is overpriced but you can walk 2 minutes to IKEA or 5 minutes to the airport terminal. Shuttle bus is $3... More
