Hotel Panorama reaches construction milestone
The Hurley Hotel Group’s latest project, Hotel Panorama, has completed the structural build of the hotel, with the project set to be completed by March 2026.
The five-storey $60 million hotel on Goodwood Road will include a basement, a sunken fire lounge, gaming room and a sports bar on the ground floor that leads to an outdoor area with a three-metre outdoor screen.
Hotel Panorama General Manager Scott Oakley said the hotel’s new rooftop bar, Wonderland, will have panoramic views overlooking the city, ocean and Adelaide Hills. The top floor will also have two function rooms with views of the Adelaide Hills.
Wonderland aims to provide “an exciting space and something that has not been done before in this area,” Oakley said.
There will be three floors of accommodation with 77 rooms, including 26 serviced apartments with one and two-bedroom options and a honeymoon suite.
Oakley said Hotel Panorama expects guests who are visiting the nearby Flinders Hospital, Repat Health Precinct, Flinders University and Tonsley Innovation Precinct.

Construction on the beer garden, sports bar, restaurant, and a function room is starting within the next couple of weeks.
The hotel is being built by South Australian family-owned company Sarah Constructions, with previous projects including d’Arenberg’s The Cube and the Hurley’s Marion Hotel.
The hotel design was done by Cox Architecture, who have also designed projects such as the Adelaide Oval Hotel, Adelaide Botanic High School and Her Majesty’s Theatre redevelopment.
Oakley said the hotel will look to employ “somewhere between 150 to 200 new staff members, which will add to the over 650 staff that the Hurley Hotel Group currently employs”.
Hurley Hotel Group’s Anna Hurley said she was thrilled to be investing in the future of the area.

“We’re really excited to have this come to life when the project completes in March 2026,” Oakley said.
