The Vibe Hotel Adelaide is lauded by many travelers for offering exceptional value, often likened to a luxury experience without the hefty price tag. Guests have called out the hotel's cleanliness, modern atmosphere, and the spacious, well-equipped rooms, though some suggest that soundproofing could be better. The staff's friendliness and efficiency receive frequent praise, yet room service has room for improvement.
While the location is generally appreciated for its vicinity to attractions, a few guests find it slightly removed from the city center. Amenities like the pool and gym add to the comfort, despite minor critiques on room sizes.

The front desk staff were delightful and accommodating, as were the bar staff who kindly provided us with ice for our water bottles. This gesture was particularly appreciated during the scorching 39-degree days we experienced.

We really enjoyed out stay here on a Saturday night in July. Firstly, Location was perfect for the East end of Adelaide - during Fringe Seasont his would be amazing. Our room overlooked the parklands and was a short walk to Rundle St or Hutt St. You could also easily walk to Rundle Mall and other city attractions including North Terrace. The location allows for convenient access to the attractions and dining while being on the quiet side of the city.
Staff were all very friendly and went above and beyond for us on our stay. Checkin was quick and checkout was painless.
The decor and design of the building was lovely and the rooms were amazing. We had the Bath Suite which was a novelty and an amazing room. The bed was firm but comfortable with plenty of pillow options. The bathrooms were well laid out and the shower was amazing.
Parking nearby was reasonably easy given its street parking but there is also paid parking available if you're there for a long stay. We didn't get to experience the in-house restaurant but it looked nice and there were plenty of people dining there when we walked past. The minibar is small but reasonably priced with a few SA products which is appreciated. The Aircon was powerful and the under bench night light was a really nice touch. The design of the rooms were industrial but comfortable and showed really considered design which showed the level of care from the architects.
I'd definitely stay here again. The view from the bath was amazing!

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
Nice modern rooms and hotel. Comfy large bed and great shower and toiletries - room not completely soundproof we did hear our neighbours. Restaurant dinner menu a little too fancy for us - Breakfast was good but service needs a lot of work , plenty of staff helping out and not overly busy , I appreciate it’s a new hotel and things need to be ironed out, staff need training on basic service.

Hi Ms-Alley-Cat, Thank you for sharing your feedback on your recent stay at the hotel. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the modern rooms and comfortable bed. However, I apologise that from the room you stayed in, you were able to hear your neighbors. I'm also sorry to hear that the restaurant dinner menu did not meet your expectations, but I'm glad that you enjoyed the breakfast in the morning. I appreciate your feedback on the service, and I apologise that it did not meet your expectations. I will follow up with the restaurant team about these issues. We take all guest feedback seriously, and we will use your comments to improve our services going forward. Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. Warm Regards, Brad Wells Assistant Hotel Manager

The hotel is relatively new, so everything in your room works. The room also had a really lovely scent when you checked in. The room was a good size, with good lighting but not sound proofed. Beds were really comfortable with lovely soft pillows and linens. The block out curtains worked really well, but our room had very little natural light. Well equipped with a huge tv, coffee pod machine and room safe.
We had the entry level room, which had the tiniest two windows so the room had no natural light and absolutely no view at all, it would have been nice for the hotel website to disclose this information as all the photo’s on the website show large floor to ceiling windows with lots of natural light and a bath tub, but we didn’t have any natural light, no view of anything or bath-tub which was really disappointing, as all the website photos show bathtubs with a view.
The bathroom is the best feature in the room. It is large and clean. Huge shower with a choice of two shower heads and decent water pressure. Lovely toiletries and big fluffy towels. Good lighting and a decent wattage hair drier.
The air conditioning is on a sensor, so if you don’t move around your room, it stops working, so it gets a bit stuffy in the room as the air flow is not great even on the highest fan setting.
The gym does the job, but the pool is really tiny, don’t know why the hotel bothered putting the pool in as it is so small and uninviting, with only two sun-loungers.
The parking is an issue. There are limited parking spaces that you cannot book in advance and it is a first come first serve basis. If you don’t have a car it isn’t an issue, but if you have a car it is very inconvenient looking for street parking and making sure you are around to get a ticket from a parking meter.
The website pictures are misleading with photo’s of large windows and natural light, and photo’s with bath tubs in the room, as the entry level rooms do not have any of these features.

Stayed overnight as a couple. We found the reception staff friendly and helpful and were receptive when we identified a small issue with the carpark. The room was modern, slightly on the smaller side but well laid out and we didn't feel wedged in at all. It's good to see a hotel use a name brand TV rather than some off-brand job that is slow and doesn't work. The bed was comfortable, I'd say it was medium-firm in feel. The aircon had a small rattle (room 1201) but did not disturb our sleep at all. The room was extremely quiet and we were unable to hear any noise at all from outside. Unfortunately, the room service menu did not work saying room service was unavailable. We had breakfast about 8:30 when a tour group must have also come for breakfast resulting in the restaurant being packed out. We had to share a table with others for a brief period before another opened up. Once the group cleared the service was quick and the food was tasty. A suggestion for the hotel would be a small supply of umbrellas that guests can borrow to walk between the carpark and reception. Maybe also booking times available for guests who pre-pay for breakfast. It may have been available but we didn't ask. Overall a great hotel and great stay.

Dear Jim0870, Thank you for taking the the time to your detailed review of the hotel, your feedback is invaluable to us. Lovely to see that you enjoyed your stay with us, however my apologies for your breakfast experience. Bookings are available for breakfast but it appears the team have not made you aware of this so your feedback will be passed on. Should you choose to stay again the hotel does offer nice big umbrellas for guests to borrow, just ask the team and they will be happy to loan you one. Thank you again, we hope to see you back in the future. Kind Regards Brad Wells Assistant Hotel Manager

I stayed two nights and thought this hotel was fabulous. Its brand spanking new, reception staff were friendly and helpful, the wifi was great and a $10 option for unlimited high speed access was most reasonable. The room I was given had great views over the Adelaide Hills and breakfast which was included in my rate was a tasty ala carte menu option with a coffee or drink. Hard to find anything but good things to say about Vibe, I’m a semi regular traveller to Adelaide and I’ll absolutely be becoming a regular there.

We booked in for an overnight stay to hang in the City before meeting friends in McLaren Vale for a weekend getaway. We were looking to be around the NE of the CBD, so the location of the hotel is quite convenient. We made our booking via Booking.com and requested a room on the higher floors away from the lifts. This request was confirmed at the booking, but we ended up with a room on the first floor directly next to the lift. Our room did face the side laneway rather than the main street, so it wasn't actually noisy or anything. It was also quite spacious and generally comfortable. We struggled to get the thermostat working well; we turned it down to 18'C (the lowest) but it was still quite warm overnight so it didn't make for very comfortable sleeping. The in-room TV had pretty limited options (local TV stations), and the Chromecast didn't connect after several tries so it wasn't particularly functional.

This hotel is beyond amazing! My boyfriend and I loved our stay here, from entering in the hotel door to the room itself, we could not fault it. These lovely ladies at reception really took care of us as soon as we walked in from cancelling our stay next door. They gave us a really great deal and they were so welcoming. The room was amazing and the toiletries were beautiful, O&M brand smells and feels divine on the skin. It was very clean and the view was amazing! Bed was comfortable and the chair was comfy actually as well. Breakfast and dinner was really lovely. Location was perfect too

After our Uber from the airport (approx $25) check in went smoothly. We had a great room on the seventh floor overlooking the main road with floor to ceiling windows. The bathroom was spacious with a powerful walk in power shower with all the required shampoo, body wash, conditioner etc. A fridge in the room was a bonus. We didn’t eat in the restaurant but when we had a drink in the bar the food looked wonderful. The hotel is in a great position close to everything. We would highly recommend this hotel due to the spacious rooms and location.

Location about 20_25 minutes walk from the center , the Vibe hotel is a design and functional hotel. Cleanliness to note and exceptional comfort of bedding. We encountered a technical problem in the room, a solution was immediately found.Equipped with a fridge, an ironing board and an iron , coffee maker and kettle the rooms are functional and pleasant.The only downside is perhaps the breakfast which does not really correspond to European standards because it is only offered savory dishes.
