Our convenient online check-in service allows you to use your mobile phone as your room key, making the process incredibly easy and hassle-free.

There is no front desk at Econo Lodge East Adelaide, if you require any assistance during your stay, our partner hotel’s front desk support will be readily available to help.

Regrettably, we are unable to issue room keys unless the online check-in process has been completed and a valid and matching ID is uploaded.
