Introduction
Located about 30 minutes drive away from the Adelaide Airport in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia, the Pullman Adelaide is a 5-star hotel that offers great connectivity for business or leisure travellers, being walking distance from a myriad of company offices, shopping, dining, and entertainment options. That said, Pullman Adelaide doesn't offer much activities for children, though there are several tourist attractions nearby.


Ambience
Ambience at Pullman Adelaide is modern and elegant, with touches of luxury. The eclectic furnishings in muted and bright shades are warmly illuminated, while decorative lights and vases lend a classy touch. There're good views over the city, and the nearby park boasts fairy lights in the trees, lending a surreal yet pleasing aesthetic.


Room
Rooms at Pullman Adelaide are cozy and comfortable. I stayed at the Junior Suite, which is equipped with a smart television with satellite channels, and MP3 player docking station with radio, and a queen size bed. The wardrobe is small, but the large bathroom has both a shower and bath tub, with decent amenities stocked. The place is relatively clean, though I had to change 1 of my towels due to it being unclean (with an unpleasant odour).


Food
Food at Pullman Adelaide is served at the Salt Restaurant. Ambience is comfortable and suitable for lingering meals, though the place is noisy and buzzing at breakfast. Service is friendly but leisurely, with staff according guests good attention. Cleaning up is done slowly, and there isn't a proper queue system which can have disorderly results. Food is Modern Australian cuisine, made with fresh ingredients. Quality is slightly above average, served in large hearty portions.


Service
Service at Pullman Adelaide is polite, professional, and helpful. Staff welcome guests warmly, and process checking in or out quickly, with good briefing of the available facilities. They readily offer assistance, such as calling a taxi, or holding luggage in temporary storage. Beyond the reception and restaurant, there's minimal interaction elsewhere, though if you do come across housekeeping, they're polite and work efficiently.


Facilities & Activities
The facilities and activities at Pullman Adelaide are catered towards business or leisure travel, but less so for children. The spacious and well-equipped meeting rooms make this a popular conference and business meeting venue. The lobby lounge and executive lounge are comfortable. The gymnasium has decent equipment, while the swimming pool is basic but functional. While they don't offer laundry service, the easy-to-use self-service laundromat makes up for it. Overall, I would recommend Pullman Adelaide hotel if you're planning to visit the city and its surroundings.

At the breakfast buffet, the Egg Omelette is made-to-order, and I got it with tomatoes and spinach. Has a fluffy creamy soft juicy crisp texture, with eggy sweet savoury vegetal salty flavour. Paired it with crisp kale with vegetal bitter earthy sweet flavour, tender roasted potatoes with starchy salty savoury flavour, and overly soft squishy beef and chicken sausages with smoky meaty savoury salty flavour. Good!
