“Forget it”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed August 19, 2007

I wish I had read the other reviews before I booked this hotel for a special occassion! What a dump! "Award winning design?????" I guess it's a matter of taste. We had two rooms, one deluxe, the other with a breakfast package and a bottle of champagne upon arrival. Two phone calls were required to track the bottle of champagne... More

Dear Weels Thank you for your comments - I am sorry that your stay was not as enjoyable as either of us would have liked. As I mentioned in a separate message to you I am looking at changing our procedure for the delivery of champagne - so thank you for that comment. The firmness of a mattress is very... More

“A boutique hotel that is very overrated”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed April 30, 2007

This had to be the worst boutique hotel I have ever stayed in. We checked in and on arrival had a complimentary bottle of champagne delivered to our room. We went to find some glasses and found that they were dirty! Then the remote for the TV did not work and some of the lights throughout the room were not... More

Thanks rubyaussie for your comments. My name is Andrew and I am the GM of Adelphi. The hotel was purchased by new owners at the end of 2006 and I started in the new year. I just wanted to keep you up to date with what we have done in the last few months, the first thing was to listen... More

“A Unfortunate Hotel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed March 22, 2007

This hotel is in a great location close to the "Paris end" of Collins Street and only one block from Federation Square and the river. Ezard restaurant in the basement is rated "two hats" and is apparently a top spot if you like simple, home cooking, like butterscotch chicken with sea urchin coulis and oxtail and sheep cheese broth (just...

“truly dreadful hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed January 7, 2007

The friendly staff is a small consolation for a room in a building that is ABSOLUTELY UNSUITABLE FOR A HOTEL. The room's view across the narrow alley is of another factory/warehouse structure considered by the hotel to be so awful to look at as to OBSCURE THE WINDOWS! A veritable cave. Pathetic, hopelessly hip, trendy, un-cozy - and terribly dated... More

“Cool, but a little tired”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed June 25, 2006

The Adelphi was cool because it was different from those hotels that all feel the same with their inoffensive but dull decor and bland, faceless service delivery. The design is funky and original, with bright colours, interesting materials and unusual lines. For example, a wall between the bathroom and the bedroom was opaque glass. We also found the service to... More

“Not recommended, overpriced.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed March 7, 2006

Was staying at Crown Promenade for a poker trip, but my girlfriend came down for a weekend and decided we wanted to stay somewhere away from Crown. So checked on WOTIF to find a nice place to stay. Found the Adelphi hotel, which was billed a five star, very funky and chic hotel to stay at. It was no where... More
