Stamford Plaza Adelaide

Review of Stay at Stamford Plaza Adelaide (24–28 August 2025)The hotel enjoys an excellent location right in Adelaide’s city centre.The front desk staff made a strong impression, especially Luke and Iris, who went above and beyond during my stay. On 25 August, when I developed a skin allergy, Luke responded swiftly, recommending a nearby clinic and checking in on my condition with genuine care. Iris was equally attentive — she quickly resolved an air-conditioning issue by arranging a room change, and later, when the lifts were out of order, she promptly guided guests to use the staff lift. Their professionalism and kindness were greatly appreciated. Overall, the hotel would benefit from refurbishment to match the outstanding service provided by its staff.However, while the service was commendable, the rooms did not meet basic five-star standards. Cleanliness was below expectations, and the shower design caused water to spill into the toilet area. Overall, the hotel would benefit from refurbishment to match the outstanding service provided by its staff.

Older hotel retrofitted in excellent central location. Windows had double glazing added so minimal road noise. Could hear people talking loudly in room next door. Older tiled bathroom. Cool light sensors in bathroom and at bed base if you got up in the night. Very spacious. Bed comfy. Safe too small for laptop.

Dear Stamford Plaza Adelaide Team, I just wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the wonderful experience I had during my recent stay with my kids for three nights. From the moment we arrived, your staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. I particularly wanted to commend Kulpreet, the hotel manager, for the outstanding service we received throughout our stay. The thoughtful gesture of arranging my birthday present was truly appreciated and made our visit even more special. I would gladly give 5 stars to your hotel for its quality service and family-friendly atmosphere. We were so happy that we are already looking forward to our next visit! Thank you once again for an unforgettable experience. Best regards

I’d like to give a big thank you to Kulpreet. I am here on a business trip. For some reason I need to extend one more day. His assistance truly made all the difference, anticipating needs and handling everything with a smile. Thanks to his attentive and helpful service, my entire stay was wonderfully smooth and enjoyable. The comfort and genuine hospitality I experienced made it a truly relaxing and memorable visit. largely thanks to him.

If I could give this review zero stars I would. |This stay was for five nights - we checked out in less than 24 hours and relocated to the Sofitel hotel.|Stamford is ‘self rated’ 5 star hotel… really??? Based upon our experience I would think they would struggle to achieve three stars on an independent review.|This hotel NEEDS a renovation desperately.|The quality of room was poor, the breakfast would be an embarrassment to any hotel of quality. |We booked this stay via Qantas and have sent a complaint back to them about the description of this hotel and services.|I spoke at length to the Front Office Manager as I checked out with four days stay still paid for. To his credit he listened and was apologetic - but the fact is, this is a sub-standard hotel with poor facilities and very low quality standards. ||If you are reading this and thinking of staying… I suggest you look elsewhere.||A five star self-rating is a nonsense and very misleading. ||Even the hotels own website and TV info, let alone the pictures in the lift showing a lovely breakfast are a nonsense.||My wife was too embarrassed when I wanted to take pictures of the food on offer at the breakfast buffet - so I didn’t take any. ||We will chase Qantas for a refund as none was offered by the hotel… a waste of our first day in Adelaide.

Rooms and bathroom needed updating, you could hear all the traffic and we were on floor 8. Lobby and breakfast area were very good. Great selection of breakfast items, we especially loved the pancakes. Fabulous location for train, busses and walking around the city. Staff were polite.

Reflections of a very enjoyable stay were temporarily ruined when my wife and I realised that we had left a precious book behind in our hotel room. But no worries. A call to the Front desk led to its recovery and return by courier. Well done by all staff. We will certainly stay there again (and try to leave cleanly).
