Thorngrove Manor Hotel, Adelaide, South Australia

Hotel Description
The Thorngrove Manor has been described as one of the world's outstanding properties. A recipient of many awards, this is no ordinary hotel. Indeed, to call it so belies its true character. The baroque towers and fantasy turrets are clues to the flamboyant interiors. Antiques, hand painted friezes, stencils and appealing artworks exploit the diverse room shapes to create an escapist's dream. There is imagination behind the décor, variations on a theme that renders each room a masterpiece in its own right. Inspired by the grandeur of European opulence, but with an Australian twist, it is as unexpected as a theatrical plot! The attention to detail is meticulous; the service personal, the soul of discretion. Every modern facility has been discreetly woven into this romantic wonderland. Privacy is absolute, you may never see the other guests. The dining and comfort levels surpass all five star ratings. Romantics - this could be journey's end!
