Full accommodation information

With its superb position for exploring the city, as well as being just a short drive to a selection of Australia’s best vineyards, there are ample reasons to choose Adelaide’s newest luxury accommodation.

The city’s first new international five-star hotel in 30 years, the Sofitel is an easy walk to major attractions including galleries, museums and shops.

Sofitel Adelaide’s architecture is striking yet uncomplicated, with large windows maximising the light and views of the coast, city and Adelaide Hills. Inside the interiors have been designed by an award-winning team who have used the city’s famous features as their inspiration, bringing together a collection of fine artworks to adorn the walls. The focal point is Field of Dreams, an original art piece by Australian fine-art photographer Alexia Sinclair.

Rooms and suites have the Parisian flair synonymous with French hotel chain Sofitel, with features such as an in-room espresso coffee maker, chic dining set placed by the window and Balmain Paris toiletries in the elegant en suite. Upgrading to a Club Millesime room or suite affords extra indulgences like complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea and aperitifs and canapés.

When you’re not exploring this great city – much of which can be seen on foot straight from the foyer – you can head to the champagne bar for a wine and food tasting flight or take a dip in the large, heated indoor swimming pool with its floor-to-ceiling windows and relaxing loungers.

The 251 guestrooms and suites are set over 24 storeys at this luxury Adelaide hotel, all with views of the city, coast or hills.
Interiors are chic, inspired by French design and with a palette of colours created to promote relaxation. Indulgent details are present even at entry level – like Balmain Paris amenities and espresso coffee makers. For added extras, club level offers complimentary treats throughout the day.

This Australian city has so much to explore, with its passion for food and wine being the highlight for many. The hotel is walking distance to many of Adelaide’s best shops which are located in the epic Rundle Mall with its arcades, global brands and local designers.

The thriving culture in the city means there are always festivals and live experiences to enjoy, as well as the resident art houses and museums. Sofitel Adelaide is passionate about art, and welcomes you to take an Artiste Taste tour of the building with a Guest Experience Curator to see the hotel’s many unique works of visual art. And did you know that Adelaide is the first, and only, designated UNESCO City of Music in Australia? Of course sports enthusiasts will think of Adelaide for being home to the iconic Oval, but it also hosts the Tour Down Under cycling event each January (Adelaide is a great city to explore on two wheels).

Sofitel Adelaide is part of Accor hospitality group, and as such operates with sustainability best practices that include: waste management strategies; reducing the use of natural resources and food waste; supporting local communities; eliminating single use plastics; and making environmental awareness part of the everyday culture of the hotel.
In its responsible tourism mission, the management of Sofitel Adelaide says that their aim is to: “Protect the environment and the prevention of pollution by consistently using the method of the ‘3 Rs’ to achieve continuous improvement: reduce, reuse and recycle.”
