The 18-storey upscale hotel – the first Vibe in South Australia – will feature 123 luxuriously appointed guest rooms, a pool deck, spa, sauna, and plaza designed by multi-award winning Loucas Zahos Architects. Vibe Adelaide will also be the first in Australia with a suspended bridge pool that allows guests to “swim” between the hotel and the neighboring ONE Apartments.
Principal Architect and Director, Con Zahos, said the hotel would be the anchor of Flinders East, completing GuavaLime’s 20-year development of the precinct.

“The Vibe Hotel is the final jewel in the crown of 10 projects in the Flinders Street Precinct,” Mr Zahos said.
“It will be the focal point and springboard for visitors experiencing and doing business in Adelaide. Vibe Hotel Adelaide will set the standard in the worldwide movement to modern and relevant millennial stays.
“Hotel guests can choose to retreat to thoughtfully-designed rooms or be part of a vibrant, inner-city community at street level with restaurants, bars and culture.”
TFE Hotels’ Group Chief Operating Officer, Chris Sedgwick, said TFE Hotels was looking forward to expanding their footprint in South Australia and to opening their very first Vibe Hotel in Adelaide next November.

“This hotel’s design-focused style will offer a vibrant, inner-city community vibe at ground level with lively restaurants and bars,” he said. “On the higher hotel floors, the open-plan bathrooms and floor to ceiling windows will frame city views that extend all the way to the beautiful Adelaide Hills.”
The $45 million project is set to create 80 full-time jobs during peak construction, and 108 full-time jobs during hotel operation, providing a substantial boost to local tourism.
Vibe will be the sister hotel to TFE Adina the historic Adina Apartment Hotel Adelaide Treasury and is expected to begin trading in November 2022.
