This property calls itself a "Motel". It is very basic, but it is situated right at the start of Rundle Mall and the centre of the city. The tram stop for the free city sightsee tram is a two minute walk. As are all trams. It was a 5 minute walk to catch the J1 bus back to the airport.... More

We stayed one night, this hotel is poorly decorated and overpriced and in need of renovation. We booked online and so where unaware of what poor value for the money it would be. We where charged for an item which we had discussed with the hotel and they had agreed to not charge us. We will not be back, ever.

I have stayed at the Paringa hotel 3 times now, each time a stop for when I head back to the small town in SA I'm working/living in. The first time I stayed (Room 204, queen and single bed) I picked the hotel because it was not too far from the airport, the price was great, and it was also... More

Dear Guest Thank you for your comments, however for the benefit of those reading this, it is only fair to respond to what is clearly an inflammatory and unfair review of our hotel.

This guest did not stay at our hotel, nor did they even arrive at our hotel. They cancelled their reservation prior to arriving and were charged a cancellation penalty as they had booked a heavily discounted rate with no cancellations allowed. This person is attempting to take their anger at the charge out on the hotel. This is fraudulent misrepresentation... More

Stayed here for one night over the Easter break. Not awful, but certainly one of the lowest quality hotels I have been in. The building smelled unclean, dirty carpet everywhere, rooms were very dated and dark. I don't think there had been any money spent on the rooms or communal areas for a fair few years I'd definitely spend an... More

Because our more upmarket accommodation on North Terrace was not available until the following night, we decided to try the Paringa for one night because of its very reasonable tariff and its proximity to Rundle Mall, the Festival Theatre and Thrifty Rent a Car from whom we were to rent a vehicle. The staff were great and had managed an... More
