Top Tennyson Hotel Reviews

Miller Apartments Adelaide

6/10 Okay

"Here’s a shortened version (about 50% reduced): Upon arrival after an eight-hour drive, we were met at the front desk by a young woman whose attitude was rude and unwelcoming. We were tired and expecting a simple, smooth check-in, but were instead made to feel like an inconvenience. We were told dismissively that because we booked through a third-party site, our details were not readily available. The interaction felt unhelpful and cold rather than supportive. The most disappointing moment came when she said, “If you don’t want to stay here, maybe you should find alternative accommodation,” in a smug tone. While the manager later attempted to resolve the situation, the initial experience significantly impacted our impression of the stay."

Oaks Glenelg Plaza Pier Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Oak is in an excellent location on the Glenelg beach; very close to many good restaurants and all other amenities, including a bar and restaurant on the ground floor next to the reception. You can walk along the beach, swim, sunbathe, etc. any time. I enjoyed my 5 nights stay very much."

Stamford Plaza Adelaide

10/10 Excellent

"I stay often as it’s convenient walk to the places I need to go in the cbd and the rooms are spacious and large bathrooms with a bath! The beds are also very comfortable not to soft which I love I always have a great sleep and quiet rooms highly recommend and they have a deal with the Wilson car parking on hindley street which is a very short walk behind the hotel one st back. Great restaurants on site to and walking distances for other choices ☺️"

Hotel Grand Chancellor Adelaide

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in Hindley street which does distract from the lovely feel of the interior of the hotel. A few homeless sleeping rough very close by. Police station right next door and it gets loud at nighttime with the nightlife. Perfect location for our trip to the footy and lovely staff. Good 4 star rooms and the zrt deco big entrance is very nice. Makes you forget the street front. A good value city hotel."

Grosvenor Hotel Adelaide by Accor

10/10 Excellent

"The property was really clean. Amogh( receptionist) was really really nice. He helped us with room upgrade as it was our anniversary. i felt really happy with the way he treated us and went all the way to help us with room upgrade and gave us a fair price as well. i would love to visit again. we had a balcony view room with a personal lobby area as well. Thank you"
