This is my 2nd trip to St. Johns and first to Alt. The staff, specifically, Natalia, went above and beyond for me. From check in to checking out, every staff member said hello and asked if i needed anything. Exceptional, updated, modern, clean and quiet room. The view of the harbour was so relaxing after a long day. The people of Alt and Newfoundland have won my heart.

Hotel was a neat spot to stay at. Very cleanly, staff were very friendly. Love that it’s walking distance to water street making it convenient for shopping and eating. Only two things is the gym is very small and nothing to wipe down the equipment with and the rooms are pretty small. But other than that we had a great stay and would stay there again.
