Located in the heart of the CBD on busy Hindley Street in Adelaide's west end, this five-storey apartment hotel was once home to Miller Anderson, one of the city's finest department stores. The 1920s heritage-listed building was converted in 2006 and now features 61 one, two and three bedroom apartments perfect for longer city stays – all have fully equipped kitchens featuring Blanco stainless steel appliances and full sized fridges, as well as free unlimited Wi-Fi and Foxtel, while some of the top-tier apartments also featuring in-room laundry facilities and second bathrooms. Hindley Street is where Adelaide comes to party: for wining, dining and small bar hopping, these apartments are your perfect base. The décor – a modern take on 1970s retro – might play havoc with your hangover though: think bright orange and jade green accents and funky patterned carpet and throw cushions.
Time Out tip: Get a taste of France with the ‘Bienvenue’ package, which for $159 includes two nights accommodation, plus parking, and a $40 food and drink voucher for hip west end cocktail bar La Buvette, just steps from the front door. C'est bien!
