Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    I have stayed at the Princes Lodge Motel many time. Normally under my own preferred arrangements. So I am very aware of all the facilities and find Location is ideal for access to City of Adelaide due to a frequent free bus service the City Loop. Having Continental Breakfast included is a good start to the day. We have always found the rooms to be comfortable, but people should realise that it is an old building and does not have the UP Market facitities of 5 star Hotel.

    The concept of a hotel inside a motel. I love the stylish chic transformation renovation. The room is tastefully decorated. Thank you so much for the complimentary wifi and Netflix. Free parking right at doorstep— appreciated ground floor room. The beds are so comfortable, pillows are to my liking, the carpet was clean and soft; they have thought of every little detail. Shower is good, walk in, the bathroom is compact, but has everything you need. Towels are lovely and soft, and good quality shampoos.
