My husband and I and our little Pug spent four nights at the Altamont Hotel and it worked out very well. We had a lovely room which was extremely clean and comfortable with a little courtyard at the side which was very attractive. Apart from the friendly service and great style of the place, we were made to feel welcome... More

Absolutely great. Fabulous location, very reasonably priced including all you need for breakfast, juice, tea, coffee, cereal, toast. Extremely friendly staff. Loved the place. "Funky". Walked everywhere and we are in our mid 60's. Lots of restaurants, bars in the area. No problems or complaints. Alan and Kirtan were super and Alan's dogs adorable. Have recommended it already to our... More

There's so much character in this hotel, much better than a hotel chain. The owner/manager was genuine and warm. The room was quaint and comfortable, and bed was firm the way I like it. It's located on the nice side of Kings X and not in the thick of it. Not super quiet but it is quiet enough. Only a... More

My wife and I spent a lovely week here, wanting a small independent hotel close to Sydney city centre by public transport and we weren't dissappointed. Excellent links into the city make this an ideal location in a suburb which was busy but not over-bearing. Atmosphere was relaxed, breakfast lacked a little choice over a week period but was perfectly... More

This gem of a hotel sits right in the perfect area for your stay in Sydney. It's a Doggy friendly Boutique-ish hotel that is wonderful. The owner and the staff make you feel like your family, staying in someone’s home. Hospitality, service, breakfast, the roof top patio, all amazing & access to a real Fitness Facility! I was performing at... More

Hello James Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to write a review about the Altamont. Whereas it is very true that some of our rooms are pet-friendly, it was definitely a first for us to have hosted 16 doves along with your good self. It's great that too you enjoyed our proximity and... More

Got a good rate online and as I sit in a surprisingly spacious room at the Altamont, am pretty happy with what we have received. Location is good. My gf booked this, and when I saw its proximity to Kings Cross on the map, I was a little concerned about the potential shadiness of the area. Fret not. The Altamont... More

This was our first hotel experience in Australia and it was wonderful. The biggest asset of this hotel is their staff. Allan the manager was ever so helpful and attentive, all the way with my impossible-to-pin-down booking dates until the end of my lengthened stay (we stayed there for one week and half in two rooms). He was absolutely a... More

G'day David Thanks you so much for your amazing review about our hotel. You are a true ambassador for the Altamont; and your tip about the Courtyard Rooms is certainly right - they are so quiet that some of our guests sleep in... I will look forward to you staying again when next you are in the Harbour City. Bye... More

If you are looking for two holidays in one, look no further. If you really want to wind down after a business meeting, this is the place to it. Perfectly located just east of the city's CBD, this unique hotel and its even more dedicated and unique staff are the best guarantee you can get for a optimal holiday experience.... More
