Australian SunAccommodation in Hotels in Adelaide Australia

Australia is a travel destination which attracts yearly more and more tourists. There are a few reasons for this, but the most important fact is that it is an immense country (in fact, it occupies the entire Australian continent!), so the variety of landscapes, climates, reliefs, cultures, weather, habitats, cities is huge and as result all holiday makers find something interesting to do and to see. Good accommodation is available everywhere, but the very best hotels in Australia are located in the main holiday spots and biggest cities such as Adelaide, Cairns, Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, Darwin, Perth and Victoria.

Adelaide is the fifth largest city in Australia and is the capital city of the state of South Australia, located in the southern part of the continent. The city has been established in 1836 as capital of the only freely-settled British province in Australia and named after Queen Adelaide, the consort of King William IV. Along the centuries this city has developed to a prosperous town and nowadays it is a renowned travel destination in Australia, offering many tourist attractions and great accommodation in hotels or vacation rentals. Hotels in Adelaide are frequently crowded due to the many festivals and cultural events held there. Beside this kind of attractions, the city and the whole region is popular for the good wine produced there and therefore most cellars in the area are visited by many holiday makers wishful to taste the best wine types like Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Merlot or Shiraz. Just a few of the renowned cellars in Adelaide Hills wine region are "Barrat Wines", "Ashton Hills Vineyards", "Chain of Ponds Wines", "Golding Wines", "Howard Vineyard", but there are also many others well worth for a visit.

During a holiday in Adelaide can be visited many tourist attractions, not just tasted excellent wines! There are many cultural institutions located mostly on the boulevard of North Terrace, from which "The Art Gallery of South Australia", with around 35,000 pieces, hosts Australia's second largest art collection! Other points of interest are "The South Australian Museum", the "State Library of South Australia", the "Adelaide Botanic Garden", the "National Wine Centre" and "Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute". Most cultural events take place in two bigger spots, "The Adelaide Festival Center" and "Adelaide Entertainment Center"”, but many theaters and cabaret are also visited for interesting events.

Accommodation is great in the whole city, just like the food and wines, and some of the most popular hotels in Adelaide are Hotel Grand Chancellor Adelaide, Adelaide Paringa Motel, Hotel Freedom Adelaide Meridien and Hotel Franklin Central Apartments.
