The Place
Adelaide may not necessarily be known as a city of firsts within Australia - but it is. The first state to give women the vote is also home to Australia s first official nude beach (Maslins) and the first to decriminalise homosexuality. Now, it is also home to Australia s first Hotel Indigo, the boutique arm of the InterContinental Hotels Group.

The pioneering former premier was fond of the arts and wearing pink shorts, this bright, modern and colourful hotel pays homage to him, his favourite colour and the festival state with large posters of past fringes and festivals adorning corridor and room walls. A striking foyer, restaurant and bar opening onto the street welcomes passers-by for coffee and drinks, as well as guests, who will also no doubt be lured to its kaleidescopic rooftop bar, the city s highest.
