Alto Hotel On Bourke

This property advertised an included breakfast, I see it still does, a fruit fresh bowl and coffee does not constitute a breakfast by any means. If you advertise it, give it. There is a sign saying the kitchen is out of order, so dont offer a breakfast, it is false advertising. Otherwise the staff were ok, seems a family a friend business, the rooms ok, we did get an upgrade, and it was appreciated. The hotel is convenient to most transport and attractions. A bit of effort and they will have a great business.

Great and Convenient location close to Southern Cross Station. Great size room and very comfortable. Arrived very early and was unable to check in being early was able to stow my bags and the Check in staff were lovely offering me free Coffee and snack and was able to sit in the little lounge area

The bed was comfortable and the room was clean and met our expectations.

I liked the slightly rough around the edges feel of this hotel, that appears to be independently owned rather than clinical and corporate. Not part of a profit seeking chain.

I appreciated the nook I could relax in after the visit to the CBC. The fab coffee on tap and available fruit. Breakfast needed more variety for the older person who can’t have spicy or gluten. More fruit options perhaps. I did enjoy the Bircher. I loved the photos and interesting painting. All very in keeping with the historical building.Perhaps a small summery of the history of the building would help your fab hotel standout from the crowd. They are all birboring the same these days. I loved my stay and recommend it to people in Newcastle.
