I have stayed at this hotel a number of times and have thoroughly enjoyed all my previous stays but on my most recent stay I found that standards had severely declined in multiple respects. Upon arrival there were no staff at the driveway to assist to unload the luggage as there are usually. Upon entering the hotel lobby, I found all reception desks unattended. After waiting a few minutes, a staff eventually arrived. As an Accor platinum member, I have always been upgraded to a suite at this hotel on all my previous stays. I asked about the availability of a suite upgrade for this stay but was informed by the staff that there were none available. I accepted that because I understand that upgrades are subject to availability. However, when I checked the availability of suites for my stay dates immediately after check-in, I found that there were multiple suites available. So the staff had lied to me. I discussed the matter with Heath Varcoe, the Guest Experience Manager. Heath said that upgrades for Accor platinum members were only to the next room category and also dependent on factors other than availability, without elaborating on what those other factors were. I feel that as an Accor platinum member who has stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions, the hotel should do their best to offer a suite upgrade if possible, as they have on all my previous stays. I asked Heath if I could get the contact details of a staff in the reservations team so I could check with them when planning future stays regarding the likelihood of a suite upgrade being available. Heath said he would check and get back to me before I checked out, but I have never heard from him, despite asking the staff on check out to follow up with Heath. It has now been a few months. I was assigned to a small room which had an awkward ‘open plan’ design with a bathtub placed awkwardly in the middle of the room. The sliding door to the bathroom was difficult to open and close and did not actually afford much privacy as you could still hear everything going on in the bathroom when it was closed. Also, it seems the hotel has replaced the Dyson hairdryers with el-cheapo brand ones which look like they are from a $2 store. They do not fit with the image of Sofitel as a luxury hotel. There was also no portable speaker in the room as there usually is. At the breakfast buffet at Garçon Bleu I found that there were no chicken sausages as there had been on all my previous stays, only pork ones. Because I do not eat pork, I raised this with the staff and was informed that they had run out but they would have them the next day. But the next day when I went back there were still no chicken sausages. So I decided to visit Club Millesime for breakfast instead, and strangely found that they did actually have chicken sausages there. But they were not the full-size ones that were available previously, rather, they were small, cocktail-size ones. I hope they bring the full-size ones back, because
Staff friendly. Bed comfortable. Room quiet and clean. Got an unexpected upgrade. All going great until just after checkout. Let down seriously by the car-parking experience. Had to pay more than twice what expected. Got the $25 refunded from the Hotel but their staff told me I had to recoup the difference I had paid from ”the Hotel Chain”. I vote with my feet. Never again!!
This hotel is excellent value for money. Yes, you do have to walk for about 10 minutes maximum after the taxi drops you off as there is no vehicle access inside the mall. My advice would be to look for the KMart sign as the hotel is opposite this about half way down the mall. My room was large and quiet. These days people should not expect their rooms to be serviced everyday and I really appreciate what they are doing for the environment. A cafe close by that I found good was Cafe Clio on the 1st floor of the Rundle Mall Plaza. You can sit by the window and get a wonderful view of the mall below. If you do not have a car like me to get around Adelaide, I found that this hotel was ideal as it was within easy walking distance of the main transport options and other sights. The restaurant on the first floor is reasonably priced and you can sit outside and get a really good look at life below you.

ゲゲストVery professional staff with a great product. I had no issues with anything. My room was well equipped, spacious and more important clean. As I travel on business I like a cup of tea in my room. Couldn’t find any teabags even though there was milk in the fridge. I would have appreciated a cold bottle of water supplied in the fridge.
