Where to Stay in Adelaide: Accommodation Guide for Visitors

Adelaide has a comprehensive accommodation range centred on the CBD and the inner eastern and western suburbs, with additional options in the Adelaide Hills and on the Gulf coast. The InterContinental Adelaide and the Mayfair Hotel are among the city's leading luxury properties in the CBD. North Terrace and King William Street have a strong concentration of 4-star hotel options. The East End near Rundle Street has boutique hotels and serviced apartments popular with arts and food visitors. Glenelg beach has resort-style accommodation and serviced apartments for those preferring a seaside base. The Adelaide Hills townships of Hahndorf (30 minutes east) and Stirling have boutique accommodation ideal for those focused on the Hills and Barossa wine country. McLaren Vale to the south has winery-based accommodation. Budget options including hostels are in the CBD on Hindley Street and North Terrace. Accommodation for the Adelaide Fringe period (February-March) is the most pressured time of year; booking months ahead is strongly advisable for that period.
