Originally called Tarntanya (meaning “red kangaroo place”) by the indigenous Kaurna custodians of the land, Adelaide is one of the most cultured cities in Australia, let alone the western world.

From its very inception, Adelaide has been a different kind of city; the only established free colony to remain free (and not become a penal colony) early on in Australia’s 19th-century colonial history. These days, the city proudly continues its heritage of self-sustenance and originality with a raft of first-rate restaurants, stunning art installations, and world-class cultural wonders on offer, while also serving as the gateway to the finest wine country in Australia.

Unsurprisingly, the city is also home to some of the most amazing accommodation in Australia… Join us as we explore the best boutique hotels in Adelaide.
