Excellent value. Check in and out very fast and friendly. Breakfast a bit basic and staff a bit curt in the breakfast room. But otherwise will stay again.

Stayed with Chifley for 3 days just before Australia Day. Overall the stay was quite good, especially with the free on-site parking which was really a plus compared to other hotels in Adelaide City.

The only downsides to the room were related to the bathroom facility where the shower head was quite lowly fixed, and that the basin was also quite low. The room appeared to be unused for quite some times.

Overall, it was value for money despite other downsides.

What I liked.

parking was on site and you can park in front of the reception which is difficult with other places in Adelaide

The King size bed was comfortable, my wife likes a softer bed and I a harder bed. We consider the bed and sleep the important aspects of the stay.

The AC worked, bit noisy for a couple of minutes but OK.

One of Adelaides best restaurant the Singapore House on Glen OSmaond Rd near the Arkaban Hotel was in taxi and easy driving distance.

The lifts a very loud and are stopped from working after 11pm.

The tram was a 5 min walk away which on the saturday was free??

What I didnt like

I would not want a room next to the lifts, byut they do stop after 11pm

Went for a drink late in the evening and thought there was a pub next door, need to walk a bit of a distance for a drink in a nice place.

They only seem to have one chap on duty at reception which can get busy for him, wasnt a issue for me

Overall a older hotel but we were comfortable and slept well. And the front desk staff were pleasent to us and welcoming.

We had a great 3 nights here just before xmas. The hotel is a little dated but very clean and comfortable. We got a wotif deal that included a full breakfast which was very good. Great to have free parking and a pool.(tho the weather wasn't good). Tram to the city centre only a short walk away.Staff very pleasant and helpful.
