SS Princess Adelaide was a passenger vessel in the coastal service fleet of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) during the first half of the 20th century.

This ship was called a "pocket liner" because she offered amenities like a great ocean liner, but on a smaller scale. The ship was part of the CPR "Princess fleet," which was composed of ships having names which began with the title "Princess". Along with SS Princess Alice, SS Princess Mary, and SS Princess Sophia, SS Princess Adelaide was one of four similar ships built for CPR during 1910–1911.
