Hi guys! Last week saw the official Launch of the The Marion Hotel in Adelaide. Yes, the Marion Hotel has been around for years, but they've recently undergone a massive $20 million renovation, and I must say, the results are stylish, modern and very impressive. The outdoor garden area, expansive dining area and entertainment areas have all been redesigned and upgraded, in the Hotel's first refurbishment in twenty years. They also have brand new super stylish hotel rooms, so this really is a venue to check out if you're in the area!
I was lucky enough to enjoy a lovely array of delicious wines at the event, along with a stunningly beautiful dessert grazing table that was filled with mini cakes, macarons, nuts, fruits, cheese and doughnut towers! Seriously, I couldn't stop looking at it! I also tried a delicious gin and tonic from the garden bar, and sampled tempura vegetables, chicken crostini and mouth-wateringly good lamb chops that came out as finger food. One day I will try the sushi, but I couldn't muster the courage on this occasion, despite it looking delicious! After enjoying live entertainment from the Pedro Brothers, we witnessed the official opening of The Marion Hotel by the Hon Steven Marshall MP, the Premier of South Australia.
Afterwards, my friend and I ventured into the Lovin' Livin' Locale gig near the bar and enjoyed some really yummy Give Me S'More cocktails, whilst listening to some great local acts, including Heaps Good Friends, Stellie and Void. All up, this was a fantastic night showcasing a gorgeous venue, and I was so honoured to be invited!
Many thanks to Girl About Town for the invitation and The Marion Hotel for their kind hospitality.
