Hostels in South Australia, Australia

We arrived on a very hot day and the air-con was already on, which is a big plus. Although the room is rather basic, it is very clean and the bed comfortable. Location at Nuriootpa is central for visiting different places in Barossa.

Really welcoming and friendly staff who were eager to help wherever they could. We arrived here at the end of our trip from Melbourne along the Great Ocean Road to Adelaide, so the comfort was very much appreciated after spending nights sleeping and living in a campervan. The hostel itself is very clean and maintained. There are multiple TV rooms, a massive chill-out area, and bathrooms that feel more like a hotel than a hostel. We booked a private room with shared bathroom. The room was a good size, with a balcony, a desk, and 2 large, comfortable double bed. It was also air-conditioned. The kitchen is large and well equipped, with multiple fridges and stovetops, as well as a microwave, cleaning products, and recycling facilities. The only downside is that some guests could be tidier and put their things away after washing up / cooking. The location is excellent — right in the centre of the city. You can walk everywhere: the bus station, supermarkets, China/Asian town, restaurants, and Adelaide Central Market are all just minutes away. Overall, I would definitely recommend staying here and would happily stay again.

Booked this hotel for our team during a business trip and had a great experience. The customer service was excellent. I was running late for check-in, and the 24/7 support team answered my call immediately and assisted me professionally. Free parking was a big advantage, making it very convenient for business travelers. Overall, a comfortable and reliable stay.

Great place for those who want a place to stay. I stayed there for 2 nights, and the experience is very good. Staffs were very friendly, especially Miss Sophia. I also get to chat with other fellow travelers and whv holders in the common room (indoor) and space (outdoor). The kitchen is spacious and very accessible to those who wants to cook (almost) 24/7; the kitchen is closed for a couple of hours for them to prepare for dinner (first come first serve) (and it also have free breakfast too). Overall, would come to stay if I need to stay for a couple of nights.

The location is so good. Walkable to the seaside town center. However, the cleanliness of the bathroom and the musty smell in the room... I tried to understand that it was a cheap motel in the area, but The bathroom was so bad. A motel with a slightly uncomfortable feel. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to save money. If you have some money, go to another motel. Parking facilities are located within the motel, but the spaces are too narrow. The swimming pool was fairly clean.

I didn't have time to walk around. There is a very large supermarket nearby. There may be thick fog near the town in the morning, so drive carefully. Very cost-effective. The air conditioner is very loud and a bit noisy. Nice place.

I highly recommend the Motel Poinsettia for families seeking a comfortable and stress-free stay. From the moment we arrived, the reception staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel genuinely welcome. The layout is exceptionally convenient, especially the car park directly in front of the room, which made unloading luggage a breeze. We stayed in a two-bedroom apartment that was perfectly suited for our family of two adults and three kids, providing plenty of space for everyone. Safety is clearly a priority here; the property is gated and felt very secure throughout our stay. The location is also a major plus, with a Foodland within easy walking distance for all our grocery needs. This is a fantastic, well-maintained choice for travellers, and we would definitely stay here again!

The only reason I am marking 3 stars for service is because it was all automatic. 3 stars for when I called, and asked to be put in a little early, they immediately said yes and made the room ready. I called within 24 hours of my booking as well so that deserves a 5 star in itself. But the lack of human interaction made it not as exciting. Definitely would have made it 5 stars

A little bit far from city, but cheaper than those hotels in city, worth staying

Location was fine for what we wanted, to be close to Gillman speedway. Pool was lovely. Spa was very slow on pumping bubbles & area around  pool could be cleaner but maybe there had been heavy rain. Didn’t use the food service.
