Alto On Bourke Hotel

Editorial review

With its conservative look, it’s surprising that this new hotel Alto On Bourke promotes itself as “green”. They have water-saving showers, energy efficient lighting and double glazed windows that open. Rooms are well equipped and have a neutral décor. Apartments, but not studios, have full kitchens and multiple LCDs, and some even have spas.
