For the price we paid I was not expecting great things, however the location is very central, rooms were clean and well stocked and the staff at the front desk were friendly. It's not 5 star, however it's very good value and I don't have a single complaint. More

Fantastic staff, clean rooms, great location & value for money. More

Located right next to Spencer St station, this property is perfect for a footy weekend as it's a short walk from Docklands. Also on the tram lines, close to the station and not that far from anything. Reception was efficient and helpful and the property very clean and neat. The room we had was a studio queen which had some... More

Stayed 3 nights and returned later in the week for another. Loved the openable windows, ever-helpful staff and book exchange system. Free wi-fi made for fuss-free local research and online bookings. Lord knows why any hotel still thinks it's OK to charge by the hour. Not a glam hotel but it does have stylish touches here and there. Basically comfortable... More

Convient location, super friendly staff, and good free coffee. Room on the second floor was a bit quirky (basically no natural light and curbless shower which kept the whole bathroom floor wet) but clean, quiet, and super convient for working for the week in the CBD and catching the train/tram on the weekend) More

Staff were mainly young and very efficient. We had a Queen Studio which fitted the bill just fine. Cooking facilities were there if needed and free wireless... More

Stayed for 3 nights in April 2012 for a visit to Melbourne. The hotel is located close to the Southern Cross train station and a tram stop is virtually at the front door. We made use of the secure, outdoor hotel parking which is a quick walk from the hotel. The staff are very helpful and accommodating, especially Monika in... More

I have stayed here a couple of times for a girls weekend away. We walk just about everywhere so it is very central for us but has transport at your doorstep too. The staff were very friendly and rooms excellent. More

Stayed 3 nights at Alto and would stay again. The location was brilliant - Bourke Street tram stop right on your doorstep. We pre-booked car parking as well, which was a bonus. The parking is across the road in a private, remote control access car lot. Since it's a little walk from the hotel it can be awkward with suitcases... More
