My wife and I travel extensively in Australia each year. We had booked the hotel via the phone the previous day . We had given our credit card details and had a confirmation number. . We gave then a UK number but said it was pretty meaningless as we were touring in OZ We arrived at 4 .30 the next... more

Hindley Street is one of Adelaide's seedier spots, with strip clubs, 24 hour bars, etc. along its length. And the Rockford Hotel finds itself located along this street and in the middle of all this action. Were it not for its location, the hotel would score better marks from me. I spent 4 nights there in January 2008, occupying an... more

The Rockford was a nice place to stay. We got a good deal on the internet of $99 per night for their basic room, which was spacious and comfortable, though I'm not sure I'd want to pay full price. Pros: -Nice large room. -New and clean bathroom. -Nice bar & restaurant area. -Curteous and helpful staff. -Nice heated pool. -Central... more

If you have zero expectations you may be happy with your stay at the Adelaide Rockford. It is certainly a reasonable bed and although at the seedy end of Adelaide it also is convenient to some popular facilities. It is rated three-star in Trip Advisor which is probably about right, although possibly half a star too high, but beware in... more

I chose the Rockford because of the hipster-looking photos on their website and spent three nights there: 2 in their "deluxe room" (nicer bed... more

My fiancee and I stayed in the Hotel Rockford in a Spa Suite in May and found the rooms to be fantastic!! The rooms are bigger and better than on the website and the interior designer deserves a reward because it looks amazing! The spa is huge and because of this (and a slow running tap) it took ages to... more

We stayed at the Rockford for a week in Feb 2007. The customer service was excellent - dare I say it the best that I have had in a hotel in some time, but unfortunatley this did match the overall experience: There was a mild odor of sewage on the floor that we were staying on and also in the... more

The Rockford touts itself as a 4.5 * hotel for business travellers but does not have broadband access in the rooms. There was a modem point for dial up access but this was not working and could not be fixed. Reception provided a short telephone cable that could be used at the other point but that meant balancing the laptop... more
