Book Stamford Hotels & Resorts Meadows accommodation from NZ$125

A luxurious five-star experience with a rather unexpected soundtrack. The hotel itself is exceptional—elegant design, impeccable service, and well-executed cuisine. The staff, in particular, were outstanding, striking that rare balance between professionalism and warmth. However, even from the ninth floor, the outside traffic made its presence known—an unintended urban symphony that persisted despite my altitude. If you enjoy the ambient sounds of a bustling city, consider it a feature rather than a flaw. Breakfast was pleasant, with a sufficient selection, though a bit more creativity wouldn’t go amiss—perhaps an expanded range of egg options beyond the usual suspects. That said, a very enjoyable stay, just bring a good set of earplugs (or a deep appreciation for the honking horns of city life).

Friendly and helpful staff. Modern facilities and well appointed

Love this hotel. Ask for a sea view and you can enjoy every afternoon the sunset. Staff is amazingly friendly, helpful and location is just next to the beach

Basic but clean. Breakfast was great too :)

Always a great stay

Staff were well informed and very responsive with a professional attitude and distinct friendliness. Trams were conveniently situated across the road which meant a perfect location for the Botanic Gardens, Central Markets and Rundle Street. Our stay involved four nights on the first floor and on the afternoon of our return, prior to departing SA the following day, we spent a night on the second floor. The beds were wonderful on both levels but the second level was a cut above. Although the bathroom sinks need an upgrade on both levels, (and the bathroom as a whole on the first level,) we would enjoy staying there on a return visit. The positives by far exceeded any negatives.
