You should enjoy Adelaide.Just stayed at Hilton Adelaide and it is in a great spot.As well a free CBD bus with a stop not far from the front door of the hotel.
Barossa can be done as a day trip easily from Adelaide.The other great day trip is to the Adelaide hills just 30 minutes from the hotel by car-have lunch at Bridgewater mill-you should book however.It is also home to Petaluma,one of the best premium lable wines in Australia although now owned by one of our large copanies.
Also atrip to Glenelg on the tram which leaves just in front of the hotel is worth considering.
Just around the corner from the hotel in Gouger street is the BBQ City-one of the best value asian restaurants in Australia-Peking duck $US25.Try the scallops or oysters in Ginger and shallot sauce if up on the specials board.
Am HH gold but didnt get upgrade but did get full buffet breakfast for stay-have a great trip.
