  • Firstly, thank you much for all your work in helping me put together this event, the general feedback from people who attended was that they had a wonderful time and enjoyed everything, especially the food!

  • Our ball went very well on Friday night, thank you to everyone that made it a success!! The food was amazing, the room looked stunning and staff were really friendly.

  • The meeting went really well thank you. Your team were great and we were very happy. The food was delicious and the dietary requirements all sorted before we arrived. Natalie was just lovely and flexible with timing when the speakers finished earlier than planned.

  • The staff were amazing and so helpful. The room looked beautiful and the food was delicious. I was so impressed with the attitude of every staff member from the minute I walked in. I’ve organised the Christmas party event for our group over the last 6 years and The Playford was the most organised and really standards apart from others on Customer Service.

  • My family and I would like to pass on our thanks to all the staff who helped us to make James’ 21st birthday party a wonderful night. All staff members that we dealt with were extremely professional, helpful and worked hard, going above and beyond what was expected.

  • I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you and your entire team for the amazing experience we had for our iachieve conference. Everything ran like absolute clockwork, from the moment our guests checked in with your amazing reception staff who are the most helpful I have come across to amazing food, quick room turn arounds and excellent facilities.

  • The best dining experience we have had in a long time. The service was subtle and attentive, dietary requests were easily catered for and the quality of meal outstanding. A great selection of Australian and International wines. Well done Playford.

  • Exceptional service was given by EVERY staff member we encountered. We stayed at The Playford while attending a Board meeting and evening function which we organised... The service we received from our initial contact... and throughout the execution of the function was exceptional. "Exceeding expectations" is a phrase thrown around internally by organisations... In the case of The Playford, this phrase certainly describes our actual experience.
