She was also praised for not making the event public as her social media account made no mention that she and Simon would be visiting the site of the tragedy.
Adele is not the only artist to come out in support of the victims of the fire.
Hours after the incident, Rita Ora and Ed Sheeran, also posted messages on their social media accounts.
