A magical place!
After spending the day sightseeing, the Lotus Eater was a perfect oasis of calm where we could digest the memories of the day sitting on the verandah with a glass of chilled wine and a meal rustled up in the apartment's excellent kitchen area. Add a couple of visits from Missy the cat (and the reassuring gaze of the Buddha through the toilet window) and you have the recipe for a magical place to stay in Adelaide. We loved every moment we stayed here!!
