Absolutely loved staying at the Altair hotel. The hotel was warm inviting beautifully maintained, staff were polite and helpful. The bedrooms were comfortable and spotlessly clean, The breakfast was generous and delicious. We loved our experience staying at the Altair and would definitely return there again!

A step above a motel

This is a basic hotel that is pretty much like a step above a motel. No service whatsoever and the rooms are old, dirty, and in disrepair.

rooms are clean and comfortable and spacious with plenty water stations but the hotel doesn't add up to the advertisement on the web description specially the breakfast total letdown and pool hours are not equally scheduled as this is a hotel that caters to orthodox community

Amazing Option for Families looking for Privacy

We had such a great experience staying at The Altair Hotel in Florida. As a frum family, it can be hard to find a place that really gets everything right, but this place totally delivered. The room was exactly like it looked online — clean, spacious, and super comfortable. The amenities were great — we loved the separate beach and the pool was beautiful and relaxing. The kosher food was delicious and really well done, with plenty of variety and everything clearly under reliable supervision. One thing that really stood out was how organized everything was. The minyanim ran on time and were well set up, which made things so much easier and stress-free. You can tell the hotel is really set up with frum guests in mind. The staff were also amazing — friendly, helpful, and really on top of things. It’s clear they care about making your stay smooth and enjoyable. Overall, it was just a great experience. Everything was as described, no surprises — just a comfortable, relaxing, and well-run place. Would definitely come back again.

Good experience but not so much.

The clean of the hotel was excellent and breakfasts were various and delicious but the stuff weren't much kind. They seemed bored and annoyed.
