Best Hotels in Lenswood

An open-plan hotel on the main street of the scenic area is followed by a large parking lot. It will open a lot from the back road and there is only one small alley in front.

I stayed at the Old Mill for work. Admittedly, I did choose the cheapest room, but it really wasn’t much good. Whilst the basic nature of the room was bearable, it was a few other factors that made the stay a little disappointing. Firstly, bedheads in the rooms are against the shared wall and the walls are thin. Lest say you can hear everything from the amorous couple next door (first night) and the screaming child at 5am (second night). Also, the decorative lights outside the rooms/ part of the street frontage are on all night and the room curtains are not block out material. Hence the rooms are quite bright, even with the spare blankets draped in the windows. I’d suggest if you’re considering staying at the Old Mill, book one of the other courtyard rooms or ask for a room not next to anyone else.

Booked two nights and if it wasn’t for a late after hours arrival we wouldn’t have even stayed one night. Room was dirty with even toothpaste in sink. Bathroom had a very strong smell of mould it made our eyes itch. Room was stuffy with no ventilation and had a horrible smell. Roof tiles lifted. Lamps next to bed with no plug so didn’t even work. Woke next morning with bloodshot eyes, headaches and stuffy nose.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Studios by Haus. We had an upstairs studio at the very back of the property which meant that it was away from the noise of the busy main street. Very quiet. Off street parking. The room was well appointed with a comfortable bed, plenty of storage, limited kitchen area and modern, although pretty small bathroom. Unfortuately, previous tenants had heated or cooked curry in the room and it took some time to try and air out the smell from the accommodation. Small but annoying criticism.

The hygiene is that of a motel. There is nothing special. The environment is good. The other areas are RV campsites. The overall look is good. There are cameras at the door. Generally speaking, it is economical and can be lived in. It is just suitable for living alone.

This motel is perfect for a short stay when visiting Adelaide via car. Easy to get to being close to the main highways and roads in and out of Adelaide. Rooms had everything you needed for a short stay (except a microwave). Reception charge a $50 deposit for your stay so keep that in mind when checking in, you get it back on checkout but was a little shocked with how high this was considering we’ve been travelling around Australia for the past three months and never had a deposit this high. The rooms weren’t the cleanest and we opted to use our own doona as the one in our room had stains and smelt off, same again with the pillows with my partners one smelling of urine. Wasn’t a bad nights stay for the price, hopefully they fix a few things and I would stay again.

This time to send my daughter to school, I chose a hotel near the school. Hotel location is ok, only 15 minutes walk to downtown business center, opposite to the park, nothing to run. Hotel facilities are relatively simple, but at this price, the price is also very good, in general it is a good choice

We had a two bedroom cabin and it exceeded expectations. Approaching the cabin through the grounds is very picturesque with the lake and greenery. The parking was next to the cabin, conveniently. The cabin furnishings and decor were modern and appealing. The rooms were spacious and it had all the modern, upmarket amenities required, including electric blankets. It was clean and fresh and a pleasure to walk into. We enjoyed eating on the private back patio with the garden backdrop. The property is opposite the popular market store and a couple of minutes drive from the centre of Hahndorf. Our only criticism was that although both bedrooms had heating, the living area did not and had to rely on the bedroom heaters to heat the whole space. We were very pleased with our choice overall and would highly recommend.

Decided to try he Arkaba Hotel bistro twice during my stay in Adelaide. I'm glad I did. Whilst this is a huge complex that has the bistro, pokies, sports bar and accomodation, it is a family friendly place that is well patronised. When I was there on a Friday and Sunday night, the dining room was bustling, with diners having a meal before theatre/comedy shows and birthday celebrations, in addition to the usual casual dining. On Friday night, I tried the sourdough garlic bread with cheese, which had some nice density to it, grilled to perfection with stretchy cheese. Then I had the beef schnitzel with mushroom sauce. The schnitzel was crunchy and I really liked the mushroom sauce - lots of mushrooms in a possible cream of mushroom soup base. Lots of crispy chips were on the plate too. When I went back on the Sunday, I had the Yoder smoked scotch fillet, once again with mushroom sauce. I didn't need the sauce, as the steak had a lovely Smokey flavour that stood on its own. I ordered mine medium, and it was cooked perfectly. The Caesar salad was fresh and tasty, and the dressing was not too heavy. The chips were crispy once again, but the only downside were the two onion rings, which could have done with a bit longer in the fryer. Meals are ordered and paid for at the register, with drinks purchased separately at the bar. Multiple televisions screens showing sport and select commercial stations are also present in the bistro. All in all, next time I visit Adelaide, I will be heading back to Arkaba Hotel for a meal.

Needing a place to stay and not much to choose from in the North East, we went to Sferas and it was wonderful. Not real happy that they wanted a $150 holding deposit so we make sure we don't wreck the room. This is a fist class place to stay. The room had plenty of space, was clean and the bed and pillows were wondwerful to sleep on. The bathroom was roomy enought to take my walker.The only complaint was the noise beneath up as they had a school graduation.
