Princes Lodge

Adelaide


In a grand 1913 house overlooking the parklands, this cheery, eclectic lodge has high ceilings, new TVs and a certain faded grandeur. Close to the chichi North Adelaide restaurants and within walking distance of the city, this is a great value motel with heaps of character. The budget rooms in the old coachhouse out the back are a steal.
