Discover Mount Lofty House, a luxurious boutique hotel in the Adelaide Hills where tradition, celebration, and decadence come together.
Mount Lofty House, an iconic designer boutique hotel, offers luxury escapes, indulgent spa experiences, conference retreats, and breathtaking weddings—all set amidst the stunning Adelaide Hills. Built in 1852 by prominent statesman Arthur Hardy as his summer manor, this historic estate was once the premier address for lavish parties, earning its reputation as the gathering place for Adelaide’s elite. After the devastating Ash Wednesday fires of 1983, Mount Lofty House rose from the ashes to become one of South Australia’s most celebrated icons.
Today, guests can enjoy charming rooms, suites, and cottages with high-end amenities like wraparound balconies and complimentary mini-bars. Relax with bespoke spa treatments, including hot stone massages and vitamin C facials at the Gatekeeper’s Spa, or savor multi-course dinners at Hardy’s Veranda Restaurant, featuring curated food and wine pairings. With boutique wineries, indulgent spa experiences, and unparalleled views, Mount Lofty House is a must-visit destination for those seeking elegance and escape.
