4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

A well appointed, clean and tastefully decorated room. We had a two roomed apartment for a girls weekend away. Super comfy beds, plenty of space and peaceful, although you are only a short walk from all the action. This was my second stay at the Lion, and I will certainly stay again next time I'm in town.

stayed one night, gardens lovely and reception area. The room stuck in hallway corner, very noisy, could hear other guests gagging and vomiting and going to toilet from our bedroom. Not sure what was on the curtain(yuk). Couldnt open windows or door to small balcony(locked).Maybe other rooms are different but wouldnt stay in this room again.

Clean, well-appointed, spacious apartments north of the city, but still within walking distance (albeit across parklands) for the fit and energetic. Good dining options in the immediate vicinity. Bed was blissfully comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. We requested a room at the back of the property so as to avoid any noise from the nearby hotel. The request was... More

I only stayed for one night and needed to be close to the Women's & Children's Hospital so looked for somewhere outside the city centre. This was a delightful find and superb value. I will definitely return.

I stayed 1 night in a 1 bedroom apartment at the back of the property. The room was spacious and clean with everything we needed. Washing machine and dryer in the bathroom. Full size ironing board, iron and hairdrier. Full kitchen facilities. Free WIFI was fast and didn't drop out. There seemed to be plenty of parking for a Saturday.... More

When my son, who now lives in Melbourne, and I decided to visit Adelaide I actually checked on line to find a hotel and was pleasantly surprised to see these apartments. The two bedroom apartment was ideal for a mum and son on holiday together and had the added bonus of secure parking! The only thing I could suggest to... More

The Old Lion has been a favourite for years. It is well situated in a pedestrian friendly section of North Adelaide. The zoo is 10 minutes walk, and the city, museums, and Rundle Mall another 5.

Mixed reviews so decided to stay for just one night. Wish we'd stayed there on our other nights that we were in Adelaide. Nice location. Very convenient having free undercover parking. Great carpeted suite - perfect for crawling baby. Yeah, noisy outside but it quietened down come bedtime. Spacious, comfortable and clean. Booked thru the Entertainment Book so good value.
