This beachfront apartment is located in Albert Hall, a landmark building brimming with historical significance. Completed in 1882, the original Albert Hall was a grand 20-room mansion first occupied by William Kyffin Thomas, a prominent figure in South Australian history and co-owner of the Adelaide Observer and Register newspapers. Following Thomas’ passing, the property changed hands, becoming part of local legend. In the 1930s, it was transformed into the Oriental Private Hotel and then served as a backpackers’ lodge in the 1980s, before undergoing a meticulous restoration in the 1990s.

Admired for its grand architecture and waterfront location, Albert Hall has been an iconic part of Glenelg’s history for over a century. Staying here offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the charm and heritage of one of South Australia’s most notable buildings, all while enjoying the modern luxuries and comforts of contemporary living.
