When they tell you it’s a vibe, it really is. This recently opened hotel is the perfect launchpad for exploring the city’s major landmarks – Rundle Mall, Adelaide Oval, Adelaide Central Market and Botanic Gardens – or for a staycation during Adelaide Fringe and WOMADelaide. Natural light spills through each room’s floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing guests to gaze out towards the rolling Adelaide Hills or bright city lights below. Pack swimmers for a dip in the suspended outdoor pool, work up a sweat in the state-of-the-art gym and enjoy a delightful alfresco dinner at Storehouse Flinders East.
Time Out tip: It’s worth booking the Urban Retreat King Room for the deep, open-plan bath. Dim the lights, sprinkle in the complimentary bath salts and melt into the warm water, as you watch the sun go down over the Adelaide Hills.
