The Terminus Morgan
The Terminus Hotel Morgan has stories to keep you listening for days! The hotel was built in the 1870s and local Publicans, Heather and Phil, have owned it for a few years now. They continue to be a central part of the Morgan community in South Australia's Riverland, supporting many local clubs and groups.
The Terminus won last year's AHA|SA $7,000 membership renewal prize, and they understand the importance of being backed by an industry association that goes the extra mile to support their business. Check out this hotel, it's one of a kind!
Kelly Hotel Group
Matt Kelly has been in the hotels game for nearly 40 years and is passionate about supporting his staff, local communities, sporting clubs, and seeing customers walk out with a smile! The Kelly Group owns the Elliot Hotel, the British Hotel, and recently took the reins of the Republic at Norwood. Matt has also recently taken on the Royal Exchange Hotel in Kadina! Hear about Matt's journey, but also the advocacy that we continue to work on behalf of business owners like him including skills and training, the beer excise, and other red tape. that hinders growth in our sector.
The Lobethal Hotel
Travis Blundell took ownership of the Lobethal Hotel over 12 months ago, taking a leap of faith from behind the bar. As a local Adelaide City Hills man, he is passionate about his community and family, but also humbled by the support he has received from many hoteliers across South Australia and our corporate partners. He's proud to have passed on that support to his staff. Take a look at the newly renovated hotel and hear his story.
