Great for a solo stay”
The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating of all needs. The breakfast menu is great and the chef made my eggs perfectly. The all-day coffee and access to the lounge is perfect for kicking your feet up after a long day of exploring or whilst your waiting for your airport transfer. The relaxation room is also a nice touch. I found the bed comfortable and the shower products blissful! Perfect for a pampering session. All in all the Alto is a perfect place to stay for a solo traveller.

Perfect location, great amenities & friendly, helpful staff ”
Best location to travel around Melbourne. An easy 300 metre walk from the airport Skybus to the hotel. FREE tram zone runs in front of the hotel & Southern Cross Station with all the connecting trains is right next door to the Skybus terminal. So easy to travel everywhere. Staff very helpful & there’s a lovely intimate lounge dining area providing guests with a complimentary professional coffee machine, boutique teas, a bar fridge with alcoholic beverages & mixers for purchase, a reading library & games corner. Very impressed with this little boutique hotel. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location! ”
The Alto is so close to Southern Cross station, a short 5 minute walk. Room was clean, comfy and has everything you need. The only thing is be prepared for a bit of noise outside the hotel at night on Bourke Street, but other than that I’d recommend.

Good for a short stay. Small room with uninspired view and no in room tea/coffee making facilities at the time, however a perfect location close to Southern Cross station, the city and public transport. Reception open 24 hrs. Quiet in the room itself.

We were grateful for an early checking after a long and late overnight flight. However, even though we booked for a 1 bed apartment (1 bed +1 sofa bed) for 2 adults and 1 child (2yo) and read the terms and conditions which stated free for child they still attempted to charge us for the child. Thankfully they didn't in the end but a stressful start to our stay. We promply went up to the room and they'd made the sofa bed up for said child so all a bit confusing. All the other Staff were friendly and helpful and room was adequate for what we needed (shower needs better cleaning though in the corners). Great location as it's so close to southerncross station for the sky bus and trams/trains elsewhere. We were given a room near the back of the building so it was quiet and beds were comfy. Black out blinds were also a bonus.

Dear Guest, Thank you for leaving us a review. Your booking did originally come through as only a 2 Adult booking, although your special requests mentioned a child staying. (Prices quoted for the 1bd apartment, are always for 2 people) It is our policy to charge $15 for children over 1 yr old (Extra guest only) and I do apologise if this was not communicated or displayed for you correctly. We had pre-emptively made the Sofa-Bed in your room due to your special request when you made your booking, so we are very happy that we have guessed this correctly! All in all, I do hope that you enjoyed your stay with us, and we are looking forward to welcoming you to hotel again sometime soon :) Best regards Daniel

Clean, comfortable and convenient.”
had a 2 days stopover in melbourne and from the previous reviews from other travellers, alto hotel is a great choice for those who prefers public transports to move around melbourne. an under 5mins walk from southern cross station, the terminal for skybus which takes u to and fro airport. alto hotel lies quietly along bourke street, just a few minutes walk to their shopping area. trams and train station are just in front of the hotel and a few minutes walk away respectively. upon check in, the friendly front desk helped me with the procedure and though i was early for check in, the room was given to me as soon as it was available while i checked out melbourne city which is just walking distance from alto hotel. the room was clean and cosy, though with the size of 22 sq meter, it was sufficient for traveller of 2-3. (i had the queen bed and sofa bed room). the queen bed was comfortable and the room was cooling enough to last through the night since it was winter when i stayed in alto. the hotel is environmental friendly and love the fact the the house keeping actually conserved my towel and only changed my friend's. like the additional facilities like mircowave, bread toaster and utensils provided, but it's a pity that we were out most of time. and having been walking around the city, the highlight of our stay was the complimentary 30mins massage in the leisure room, though it was on a massage chair, but it does gave us a great relaxation after a day of venturing in melbourne.

Alto on Bourke St.”
The Alto Hotel on Bourke was an excellent find. It was my first time in Australia, and the location of this hotel was fantastic as it was easy to navigate to, close to public transport of all kinds, minutes walk from great shopping and restaurants, and staffed with friendly, knowledgeable people. The breakfast located in the hotel was also very good, the quality of food was well worth the price. Also, the coffee machine was a very nice perk that we really missed when we left the hotel. All in all I would definitely return the Alto hotel if I'm lucky enough to find myself in Melbourne again!
