Alamo Guest House

At first arriving at the Alamo we were a bit disappointed by how small the room was. We had gone for the most affordably priced room as the price range is high. The room was conveniently labeled 'intimate' on the brochure and website, we felt that the online presentation of the Alamo on the website gives the guest house a more luxury feel than what it is in reality. It was explained that the bathroom was outside of the room when we booked online which we did not mind much when staying, they provided lovely robes and the bathroom itself was nice with a deep bath. The woman who greeted us was super friendly but we did find it slightly unprofessional that she was wearing socks and it made it have an almost hostel like vibe. What was a bit disappointing was the breakfast, it came out undercooked and cold. It also took them an hour to bring it out and it appeared the staff were flustered and underprepared. We were the only ones in the breakfast room at the time so it really shouldn't have been that much of an undertaking to cook two breakfasts. We left feeling hungry and disappointed. However the staff member who served us apologised and offered complimentary cream tea to make up for it which we appreciated. I would still recommend staying here as I feel the breakfast was perhaps due to some fault in the kitchen and it seems we were just unfortunate in our experience. Overall we had an enjoyable stay and the room was cosy, quiet and comfortable. I would definitely stay again and was happy we had chosen the guest house. Also the standard of cleanliness was exceptional. The area where it's situated is a great too!

A stunning and luxurious hotel, in a great location in the West End/Finnieston. Rooms are well-appointed, and very comfortable. Free nespresso coffee machine for guests to use any time, in the dining room. You can bring your own food into the dining room until 9pm, plates and cutlery provided. Very quiet, no noise inside or outside at night. Staff are friendly and helpful. Plenty of good bars and restaurants nearby. The only minor complaint I had was that the full Scottish breakfast wasn't as nicely cooked as I would have expected, and my order was taken wrongly, as I have asked for one of the items to be baked beans, and was given mushrooms instead.

We stayed in the Shetland room at the Alamo Guest House and had a truly lovely experience. Although the room isn’t especially large, it is incredibly cosy, spotlessly clean, and well-designed. The bed was extremely comfortable, the heating worked perfectly, and the toiletries provided were high quality and pleasant to use. What stood out to us most was the historic charm of the place. All the furnitures had a classic character, the thick carpet felt soft and luxurious underfoot, and the entire space exuded a rich sense of history. Even though our room was on the lower ground floor, it had great natural light, and the windowsill was decorated with beautiful flowers. What a delightful touch! Breakfast was another highlight: the bacon was thick-cut and delicious, and the bread was freshly baked. It’s clear that a lot of care and attention is put into every detail here. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Glasgow!

We won an Instagram competition which included a free night stay with bed and breakfast, we chose to stay in the Arran Suite, and it was AMAZING! Everything about that room! From the bed to the shower and bath facilities it was perfect! I can’t thank the members of staff enough for their kind hospitality while staying here, if you are looking for a place to stay while in Glasgow this comes highly recommended! Clean, affordable, Relaxing and just all round good vibes! Thank you once again! I promise you we shall be back!!

I visited the Alamo for a massage and the tea room. I have to say, being quite fussy with my massages, this was the best one I have had in Scotland. The masseuse was very attentive and listened to my preferences and really delivered perfectly. I have left feeling so relaxed, and can't wait to come back again. 100% recommend. The staff at the Alamo are extremely friendly and welcoming. It really is a 5 star experience.

The room was comfy and clean. The staff was professional and courteous. Their recommend for a fish and chips shop was excellent (Kent Fish and Chips). The breakfast was tasty. The Kelvingrove Museum is just a short walk away. There is also a nice park and walking paths just across the street. They do provide wash or face cloths.

I was absolutely blown away with the service and accommodations offered by the Alamo. From the moment we arrived until we checked out, my family was treated with phenomenal kindness. The rooms are spacious and decorated in theme with the architectural style of the building. The included breakfast is cooked-to-order and was a delicious way to start the day. The hotel is tucked just outside of downtown Glasgow, offering a quiet retreat while visiting the city.

We stayed for three nights, checking out on Christmas Eve. The guest house was not exactly what we had expected, but it was charming. Can certainly see why it’s called a guest house rather than a hotel. Lovely furniture throughout and comfortable amenities, though not quite spectacular. The breakfast was a very nice touch and we were really very happy with what was offered. The area was a bit sleepy, though there are some nice restaurants and bars nearby. It couldn’t be more convenient for getting to Kelvingrove gallery. I’d say the price seemed fair for what we received.
