Lage ist toll: Ruhig und doch ein Katzensprung zu den Restaurants im Westend. Die Zimmer sind gut ausgestattet und der Service freundlich. Das “Wohnzimmer”, in dem das Frühstück angeboten wird, ist sehr schön. Wer keine anonyme Hotelkette sondern eine individuelle authentische Unterkunft sucht, ist hier gut aufgehoben!

My husband and I stayed at the Alamo for one night and I only wish we could have stayed longer. The hotel itself is in a great location in Glasgow, is beautifully decorated and is very cosy as well. Our room had everything we needed and was gorgeous too. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful and we especially enjoyed the dining room area where we had coffees in the evening and breakfast the next day. The breakfast was delicious. Great, varied menu and the hotel catered for my dietary requirements. I can't recommend the hotel enough. I definitely hope to be back soon.

My son and I just spent a week in the UK visiting universities and were lucky to stay at the Alamo twice during that time. It is such a lovely, friendly, cozy, fabulously-located place. The beds are so comfortable, the breakfasts are delicious, and its location on Kelvingrove Park is terrific. Super close to the Uni of Glasgow and many great restaurants. We will definitely stay here again!

We came to Glasgow to visit the Kelvingrove Museum and Gallery. The Alamo is just a short walk across the park from the museum, so perfectly located for culture vultures. We found the Alamo comfortable and welcoming, with staff who couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. And the breakfasts… wonderful! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Friendly staff,spacious room,lovely breakfast . Excellent tea in the room.Perfect locationOnly downside is the shower which is really variable in temperature and limited flow.Our visit was also let down by loud music and dancing until 2am!Might have been room 2 or next door .No idea what we should have done to try to stop it.

Upgraded our room to a suite and was well worth it. Staff was friendly and very helpful. The room was huge and luxurious and the bed very comfortable. Only problem I had was trying to watch TV at night, while in bed. TV would be better hung on the corner of the roomor change out the wall mount so it can pull out and turn. Also they said to keep the TV volume at an 8 after 2100, however in such a big room it was hard to hear. Otherwise, it was amazing and the breakfast was delicious.

Alamo Guest House is perfectly located by Kelvingrove Park and Finniestons pubs and restaunts. The guest house is decorated and furnished with taste andstyle. The breakfast is fantastic and the staff is very friendly and competent.The room I stayed in is located in the basement which was okay, but the carpet unfortunately has a bit of an odor and some of the furniture was lacking a bit of cleanliness.

Reviewer: Juliette| Sat 28th Oct 2023 | 1 month ago
Absolutely delighted by my stay and wish it could have been for longer. The guest house is immaculate, extremely clean, wonderfully decorated and maintained. Surprisingly quiet location. The guest information provided in the room was very informative. The WiFi worked well. Tea & coffee tray very well stocked. The bed was extremely comfortable. The curtains blocked out the light completely. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served quickly and was very good. As a female travelling alone, I felt totally safe during my stay. I would usually book an ensuite, but I'm very glad I wasn't put off by it not being, as there was a sink in my room and a bathroom for my exclusive use two doors away. To top it all, there was briefly a squirrel on my windowsill! Would absolutely stay again.

This was our first stay during our trip to Scotland and frankly, it remained at the top of our list the entire time!

Couldn’t recommend this place more highly!

We chose the Alamo Guest House for our first visit to Glasgow based on reviews and location. We were happy we did. Our room (#2) was very nice. The jewel of Alamo isn't the rooms, nor the great breakfasts; its the wonderfully helpful young staff who answered all our questions, made dinner reservations, arranged for taxis and saw to it we were well-cared for. In our case, Tamina and Lucy were the staff members who went above above and beyond. We really appreciated their willingness to help! What's also nice is that Alamo is located in a quiet neighborhood near a great restaurant and pub area - Argyll Street. Stay here, you'll not regret it.
Reviewer: James K | Thu 26th Oct 2023 | 1 month ago
This hotel is in an incredible location, on a quiet street across from a park and walking distance to the Kelvingrove Museum. The breakfasts are made to order and fantastic! The couple who own/run the hotel are super friendly and very accommodating. We stayed in room 10, which was roomy and very beautiful. The standing tub (large enough for 2) was very nice, but we really had to be careful of water that spilled as the tile got very slick. While the private toilet room was convenient, we did not like the automatic lighting, especially when you need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. It wakes up the person trying to use the bathroom half-asleep and wakes up your traveling companions due to the glass panel between the toilet room and the main room. That is the only negative. I would suggest a nightlight instead.

My daughter & I were taken in from the outset by the charming and confident by unassuming lovingly restored Alamo as we ascended the easy wide steps looking out onto green parkland and trees.The hosts were exceptional being genuinely helpful and welcoming whilst giving us space to just relax & be refreshed.The hallway entrance created an immediate sense of calm and something special - we switched into a new gear - the Alamo Way! Our room was stunning and had been beautifully designed with all the modern comforts blended with gorgeous traditional furniture and cast iron bath and all set in harmonious context. This is the loving work over years of a considerate and finely tuned architectural eye.It is a gem!We freshened up and took a short walk to enjoy a delicious meal of various platters at the Ox & Finch with its vibrant vibe and very reasonably priced and of course a plentiful supply of Glasgows amazing water, which we were glad of on a warm summers day.Back at the Alamo we slept so well in a four poster sumptuous bed and enjoyed the best breakfast ever in the dining room. There were so many lovely touches . This was a scrumptious breakfast I won’t forget and my daughter loved her pastries. They offer some fabulous vegan and vegetarian options too! The eggs were amazing & locally sourced but it’s all cooked so well & served beautifully too! The coffee is fabulous and there’s plenty of it! I just enjoyed the ambience - so beautiful & creating a sense of belonging and some much needed time out.We both ate well and just as well as I set off to enjoy some of the rich cultural treats Glasgow has to offer making whistle stop tours to the Hunterian museum and gallery and the wonderful Art Deco Mackintosh House before taking two short train journeys to the renowned Burrell Collection.Look no further for a fabulous stay and book The Alamo with oodles of comfort and charm - you’ll feel you’ve really been refreshed and had a holiday if only for a day. Thank you for a lovely stay.

My partner and I always go here when visiting Glasgow. We have stayed several times now and every visit has been perfect. We always get a room with a bath and the rooms look just as good in person as they do in the advertising photos, if not better. The staff are very friendly and accommodating and we have never had a single problem or even a slightly negative experience. The breakfast lives up to the rest of the experience and I highly recommend going for the cooked breakfast. It's tailored to your precise instructions and cooked to perfection every time. The Alamo is not the cheapest but still represents amazing value as you are guaranteed a pleasant, hassle free stay in beautiful and well positioned surroundings.

The bedroom was welcoming with a very comfortable bed and a private bathroom. The cooked breakfast was the nicest I have had, all freshly cooked to order and with plenty of tea and juice to accompany it.The local area was also very nice, with plenty of local restaurants and pubs and just a short walk to the nearest station.Excellent all round

I recently stayed at the Alamo Guest House for 3 nights in June 2023 after traveling around the northern Scottish islands and ending in Glasgow. The room was comfotable, the breakfass were terrific, and the staff was extraordinary in helping me enjoy my stay.The location was ideal - in the university and museum area with the central city and those sites easily available by the subway.

Love the Alamo House. My husband, brother and I were in town for a big family event. We stayed at Alamo and loved it. Beautiful signature rooms. Cozy daily breakfast where the three of us got to catch up everyday over freshly baked croissants, hot breakfast and loads of coffee. Just regret not getting the rest of the family to stay there.

We did some research about Glasgow neighborhoods and liked the description of the West End. Alamo is right across from Kelvingrove Park, a 3 minute walk to the art museum. Alamo architecture is eye popping. The park is beautiful and the art museum is a must see. There are so many good food options nearby. The staff at Alamo are welcoming and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed the haggis and the breakfast meals. Thank you!

We found this amazing hotel in Rick Steve’s book on Scotland.

On arrival staff were friendly and very helpful.They were very accessible and informative with any queries that we had.The room was spacious, with tea and coffee facilities available. The bed was comfy we had a great night's sleep.The room was clean and the deco was lovely a real eye to detail, as with the rest of the hotel it looked spectacular.Our room did not have a bathroom conjoined, but was out in the hallway, at first we were put off a little when finding this out. But it was right next door to our room, and only me and my partner could use it so it turned out to be just fine.The bathroom was small, but it had everything you needed.The surrounding area was quite, they have a nice walk/grass communal area which me and my partner had a walk around in the evening. A short walk and your in the heart off things; food, shopping etc. Easy use of public transport to the local attractions too.In the morning we went upstairs for our chosen time for breakfast and we were greated with a cheerful 'good morning' natter.Breakfast was lovely, we had an all day breakfast which was great it really filled us up.We would recommend this hotel to others and will hopefully be back one day in the future.

While our room was quite opulent, it was Jennifer and Steve that made our stay exceptional.

We had a "private" bathroom / toilet outside the room and it was very well presented and clean. They have other room with ensuite if that is your preference.Breakfast was .. well awesome.Best sausages I have tasted and nothing too much trouble.1st stay in Glasgow and to be honest we were blown away with how friendly the place is.Alamo - take a bow, well deserved

I stayed at the Alamo Guest House for one night in late April 2023. From the time I arrived to when I checked out, the staff was wonderful. The room I was in was on the main floor right next to the dining room. It was very comfortable and featured a nice combination of old world charm with modern amenities. Very quiet, too. And the breakfast was out of this world! And finally, you cannot beat the location as it's situated right across from the large park that includes the Kelvingrove Museum with loads of wonderful choices for dining within a block or two. I would stay here again if I'm ever in Glasgow.

From check in to check out, we felt right at home. It was an amazing location, both close to sites we wanted to visit but also surrounded by great food options. We didn’t have to go far for breakfast since Alamo House still provides that. It was probably the best breakfast we’ve had on our trip. All the staff was kind, attentive, and seemed genuinely friendly and wanted to help answer any questions we had. When I come back to Glasgow, there’s nowhere else I’d rather stay.

Steve & Emma were wonderful hosts and staff most accommodating.

I found The Alamo Guest House via an online search and selected it based on the many positive reviews that were posted. Those reviewers were accurate! The building, our room, and the common areas were immaculately clean, well-furnished and, especially our room (#12), extremely comfortable. In addition, the large hi-def TV in the room provided all the standard channels you would expect in a cable/satellite system, but also included free access to a number of subscription-based offerings such as Netflix, Amazon Prime and many others. Breakfast each morning was made to order and the number of selections of both hot and cold choices was almost endless.The Alamo House is located in the Kelvingrove area, one of the best sections in Glasgow. Many great sites to visit and an inordinate number of restaurant choices are within a few minutes’ walk. The Hop-on Hop-off bus, which we used extensively during our stay to get around Glasgow and its many sites and areas to visit, and I highly recommend, has two stops that were each about a 5 minute walk to reach.Our room was tastefully decorated, everything was well-maintained and the huge bay windows on two of the room’s walls allowed plenty of natural light to brighten the room. One set of the bay windows overlooked the tennis courts and bowling greens directly across the street, and were part of a large park that was wonderful to walk in. The Kelvingrove Art Museum and buildings on the Univ of Glasgow campus form a great background to this view.The best part of our entire stay, though, was meeting and having various chats with Steve, the Alamo House’s owner. A perfect person for the job - a wonderful personality, an engaging conversationalist, focused on your every need and someone you felt was extremely happy and appreciative that you chose his establishment for your stay. While we did not get an opportunity to meet his wife, Emma, I suspect she shares the same traits as Steve. Together, along with their great staff, they are what makes The Alamo House as wonderful as it is.We were extremely pleased with our stay and want to thank Steve and Emma for their gracious hospitality and we certainly appreciated the time that Steve spent outliningareas on our map to visit and the great recommendations he made for dinner each night during our stay. You can not do any better than The Alamo House for your lodging choicein Glasgow.!

The staff were all friendly and really helpful, we both felt relaxed and enjoyed spending time in our room which was beautifully set out. The fact that we could get a freshly cooked breakfast was lovely and makes the Alamo stand out when compared to other establishments, you can't beat freshly cooked food which was very tasty. Personally I loved the sense of history about the place and it is only a short walk from the West End and other amenities are close by. All in all a fabulous weekend was had and we would definitely recommend this venue to others thinking of a stay in Glasgow and looking for something a bit more personal and attentive.

Reviewer: GT | Tue 7th Feb 2023 | 10 months ago
Everything was excellent, from comfortability to the breakfast. Amenities were superb. I stayed in room 12, which i highly recommend for the gorgeous interior decor. The staff were super helpful; I had an issue with my toilet flushing (fitted with old Victorian piping) and they addressed it promptly. Upon checking in everything was explained in a brief tour of the room. I loved the locally made toiletries and artwork too. The area is beautiful and not terribly busy, in a lovely part of town with plenty of eateries nearby. I cannot wait to stay here again.

We were first-time visitors to Glasgow and we were so happy with our choice to stay at Alamo Guest House.The staff was friendly and helpful, our was room cozy and the breakfast was delicious. The neighborhood around the guest house was nice too.We enjoyed being close to the park and all of the good restaurants.

Fabulous hotel in great location overlooking Kelvingrove Park with views of the Art Galleries and University. Beautifully restored/furnished and full of character. Owners very friendly and Emily(staff) extremely helpful and professional. Great sleep in Room 11 - very quiet. Extensive and delicious breakfast. Parking in streets around the hotel - free at weekends and after 6pm weekdays; in our experiences there usually are spaces although it may be necessary to drive around to find a space at busy times. We did not read the instructions when we arrived in our room so did not know that we could have turned the radiator on in the bedroom - would have been a bit warmer had we realised that! Will definitely return to the Alamo...

The Alamo is such a welcoming place, fully embracing the motto “People Make Glasgow”. Al front of house staff couldn’t be more helpful. The rooms (I’ve stayed in a few) are comfortable, clean and a joy to come ‘home’ to. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Added bonus as a single female traveller is that you feel so safe at all times.

I booked room 5 at the Alamo Guest House for my partners birthday and we had the loveliest time staying here. Steve & Emma are a lovely couple and you can see and feel just how much love and dedication they have poured into the Alamo. Steve gave us a rundown of the buildings history which was really interesting and was happy to answer any questions and was generally very accommodating. We were served a lovely vegan breakfast by Emma in the morning which we both thoroughly enjoyed.Despite living locally to the Guesthouse we can’t wait to stay again and are already looking at dates for another overnight.Thanks Emma & Steve!

I was honored to be staying at the Alamo Guest House for a week at the end of 2022 while I was there for a conference at the Scottish Event Campus. All of my colleagues were jealous when I told them where I was! Alamo Guest House was so accommodating to my travels and all of the staff were warm and friendly, even when I had breakfast at 7am before my meetings started. I can't recommend staying here enough, so close to restaurants and bars, the university, and even walkable to city center - if you want faster transportation, bus stops are right around there as well! I felt safe and looked after - truly felt like home even after a day let alone a week. I'll be back!
Reviewer: SK | Wed 11th Jan 2023 | 10 months ago

Stay was very enjoyable indeed, didn't disappoint. Staff couldn't have been any friendlier and welcoming, room was very comfortable and to a high dtandard throughout. My only gripe was the bathroom floor was ice cold at all times and as I have arthritis was painful on the feet I'd suggest taking slippers and maybe be an option to get on request from the guest house. Thank you for an excellent stay see you again soon.

We stayed for 2 nights in the Alamo and would definitely stay again.We received a very warm welcome on the coldest day of the year. Emma and Steve are excellent hosts and immediately made us feel at home.The house is beautiful, with the highest quality furnishings and decor. We stayed ina luxury room, with a fabulous bath and waterfall shower.The breakfast was absolutely perfect, with the best of ingredients. I particularly enjoyed the freshly made fruit salad and delicious poached eggs. Even the jam looked home-made.We had a slight problem with noise from a radiator, which was rectified to our absolute satisfaction.The location is brilliant, with the Kelvingrove art gallery and park right outside the entrance. There are many nice eateries nearby and lots of interesting places to see.I cannot recommend the Alamo highly enough, and hope to visit again for our next special occasion.

We stayed at the Alamo Guest House for three nights and found it comfortable, homely and friendly. It is also in a great location near Kelvinside Park. Easy access to Glasgow city centre on the No. 77 bus. And the breakfast was great!I would recommend the Alamo Guest House if you seek a quiet, comfortable location.
Reviewer: Robert L | Sat 10th Dec 2022 | 11 months ago
My partner and I had the most relaxing and enjoyable stay. All three staff members we interacted with were extremely welcoming and helpful. The bathroom in our room (number 2) had just been redone with a tub and walk-in-shower and was one of the highlights for us. The food for breakfast was quite nice and the complementary tea/coffee later in the day was perfect. Overall the Alamo Guest House offers comfortable, warm, and delightful lodgings.

We are looking forward to our next holiday there!
Reviewer: Sarah F | Thu 8th Dec 2022 | 12 months ago
I'm glad we chose to stay at the Alamo. Increasingly, I look for people who are making an effort and who care about their businesses and here, I think they do. The location is perfect – right near busy Sauchiehall St but quite and overlooking the tennis club. The interior is eclectic; we liked it. Some people might pick up on little bits that arguably need maintenance, but they don't affect the stay. On the contrary, our room was spacious, and the bed was super comfortable- a deal breaker for me!Breakfast is cooked to order which is quite rare and it makes a difference . Everyone we came into contact with was friendly and welcoming.
Reviewer: Sue | Sun 4th Dec 2022 | 1 year ago

My wife and I were visiting our daughter who was studying for a semester at University of Glasgow.We choose the Alamo house due to how close it was to her dorm, roughly a block away. It also meant a quick walk to the campus, local bars/restaurants and the city overall. That said, the place is incredible; whether you are visiting the university or not. We stayed in room 10, which was was roomy and had a great big bed and incredible tub. The staff was really great, friendly and helpful and really made us feel at home. The breakfast was also with having. I highly recommend the Alamo House!

No bland uniformity here!Breakfast in the morning was delicious and set us up for the day.Can’t recommend this place highly enough and definitely plan to return. Many thanks!

We could not have chosen a more perfect place to spend the night. The guest house is a small, beautifully decorated and comfortable respite from bustling Glasgow. Emma and Steve are gracious hosts. My husband, younger daughter and I checked in first and were escorted to beautifully appointed rooms complete with a tea/coffee service. While we were out to lunch, our older daughter arrived, after an informational interview at the University of Glasgow, and Emma promptly offered and prepared her a cup of tea. Breakfast was delicious and generous with lots of options. The location can't be beat - the guest house is on a quiet, small street across from Kelvingrove Park with views of a museum and the university and near plenty of restaurants and shopping. I cannot recommend Alamo Guest House highly enough.

The room was nice, with a very comfortable bed. Lovely people and nice breakfast. A 30 minute walk into town (bottom part of Buchanan street), and a bus going the same way just 5 minutes from the guest house. A short walk from the West End (Byres road and the botanic garden).

Reviewer: Steven | Wed 23rd Nov 2022 | 1 year ago
We visited the Alamo for two nights over a weekend. Staff member Josh welcomed us at the door on arrival and was a friendly, engaging host - a great ambassador for the guest house throughout our stay. Our room contained everything we needed and there was ample storage space for our cases and hanging clothes. The choices for breakfast were extensive and the food, cooked freshly to order, was of a high quality - especially the hash browns and the bacon! Much care has gone into retaining and highlighting the Victorian design features of the property, which gives an insight into the way our wealthier city forebears lived. Surrounding car parking spaces were busy at our mid-Saturday afternoon arrival; we initially found a (free) spot in an adjacent road but were able to move the car to a position directly opposite the guest house a couple of hours later. A residents' permit must be displayed from 8am on weekdays and the guest house can provide one on request. A big plus is the location, just a few minutes' walk from Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery (which is in sight across green tennis courts) and the Hunterian galleries and museum. The extensive open spaces of Kelvingrove Park lie two minutes away. All in all an excellent choice for a Glasgow visit. A tip: if you need taxis during your stay advise the Alamo in advance and they will arrange bookings for you.

Room was lovely, looked just like the pictures lovely spacious room with a high quality shower, the bath on the other hand was a very deep shaped bath but when we were running it the hot water tap fell off and into the bath which means we couldn’t turn off the hot water nor could we put our hand in because how hot it was, the tv comes with YouTube Netflix and many others which was a good quality and the beds were extremely comfy.We ordered in take out to the hotel and it was absolutely no issue and you get your own key so you can come back at whatever time. It’s very close to lots of different restaurants and bars etc and you also get robes for ur stay.The staff over all were lovely and very helpful and gave us until 12pm for checkout

Emma and her staff are warm and welcoming and willing to do anything to make your stay more comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and very generous! The beds are super comfortable and the rooms very clean. But, the best part is the super location in the West End of Glasgow. Minutes to walk to the University, the Kelvingrove Museum, great local pubs and restaurants and only a 20 minute easy walk into downtown Glasgow from there! The best!!! Would highly recommend it to anyone and would return myself if I am ever in Glasgow again.Thanks so much to Emma, Steve and Joshua for a wonderful time!

A comfortable 'home' to return to after enjoying the delights of Glasgow with great quality accommodation/breakfasts.Thanks to all the staff.

We picked the Alamo as a venue for a return to Glasgow after decades and a visit to the Uni.We could not have been happier.This was the best guest house we have stayed in in decades and in many countries.The facility was simply spectacular, and the location was perfect for our needs.Wonderful walking in the part, safe neighborhoods to walk around in for dinner, and the entire staff was wonderful and SO very welcoming. We could not have asked for more.Thank you!

My stay at the Alamo House was unfortunately short, but extremely pleasant. Everyone was completely accommodating and kind. They made sure we had a taxi called for the morning (it was the end of the trip, so we were going to the airport), and ensured that we would have breakfast ready for an early 7am wake up time so we wouldn't have to leave hungry. Beyond the care of the staff, the space was spotless, absolutely beautiful, and felt like such a unique getaway. I'd love to come back and stay for longer to get the full luxurious experience

It was such a wonderful place to start our Scotland trip, super convenient location for those willing to do some walking for all the west end attractions (Botanic gardens, Ashton Lane, Kelvingrove Museum, Riverside museum, etc. all within 20mins radius). The service was really wonderful, everyone’s super helpful and friendly, and the room itself was immaculate! The walls are a bit thin for sound, but that’s to be expected for a historic building like this. The amenities are all new and convenient, and the bed was great! Will definitely stay again.
Reviewer: Jenny | Thu 22nd Sep 2022 | 1 year ago

My friends and I used the Alamo Guest House as our base of operations in Glasgow. Josh met us after an exhausting day of travel, made sure we were comfortable and provided great dinner recommendations. Jennifer and the rest of the staff were just as caring, making sure we had questions answered and providing simply excellent service (and food)! Breakfast was a delight, with many hot and cold options. Furnishings were homey and comfortable. It just doesn't get better than this.

This is a great little hotel. Huge luxurious room with so much space and lovely furnishings but also all you need. Think full size toiletries, full size kettle, grind coffee, sockets a plenty good lighting and mirrors and a great view over the parkLocation could not be better 5 mins from Kelvingrove gallery and 10 mins from university and easy walk to many independent restaurants and pubs. We ate very well for both nights Also easy walk into cityParking easy and permits work well . Also if you are not going out the city for your stay you won’t need to move the car as the location is so goodBut the shining stars are the staff friendly welcoming helpful nothing is too much trouble and the breakfasts are out of this world . You can have anything you want and freshly cooked light not greasy and beautifully plated .shout out to the cook.I would recommend this hotel without hesitation It really is perfect in every way

From the moment we entered the Alamo was welcoming the staff were all friendly and attentive and made us feel at home, it became like a home away from home. The breakfasts were superb and set us up for our many excursions around Glasgow, we would recommend the Alamo to anyone looking for a place to stay in Glasgow. The room was comfortable, clean, had everything we needed and was quiet enough to allow us to relax after a busy day. The only downside is that we didn't get to try some of Steve's whisky selection, maybe next time. When we visit Glasgow we will always try and book a room here.

Thank you.
Reviewer: John A | Mon 15th Aug 2022 | 1 year ago
Had stayed at the Alamo a few years ago and had a great experience and so when going back to Glasgow for an event happening pretty much next door to the guest house decided to see if we could book a room there and managed to get one. As before the Alamo is a great place to stay friendly and helpful staff, comfortable well furnished rooms with wi-fi, t.v, kettle , en suite bathroom and much more. Breakfast is very good with a good range of options especially for vegans and veggies. Especially for anyone visiting the west of the city the Alamo is in a perfect spot , Kelvingrove, the park, Glasgow university and more are practically on your doorstep at least two subway tops are within a quick walk and plenty of cafes and restaurants around. For anyone looking for a comfortable, relaxing place to stay with a warm and friendly atmosphere to stay in while visiting Glasgow make sure you try the Alamo.
Reviewer: Ciaran S | Sun 14th Aug 2022 | 1 year ago

This was our fifth time staying at the Alamo and can’t imagine staying anywhere else. The rooms are comfortable and cozily elegant, and breakfast is generous and delicious.

Beautiful.The morning breakfast was .. whatever you like!Fabulous and The coffee was the best we had on our journey this far!The owners are hands on and have taken pride in bringing the Alamo up to 4 star rating status as rated the Tourist Board. Very worthy.Would definitely return.

We found Alamo Guest House in the Rick Steve’s’ Scotland book. His recommendations are usually great, but the accommodations were superb. By far the most comfortable bed we have stayed in on this trip. Superb location a block from Kelvingrove museum and on the edge of the park.Josh was very welcoming and even made us a plate of pastries to go when we did not have time to sit for breakfast. But, the best part was the shower! Better than at home with a full rain head experience!
Reviewer: Jane S | Wed 20th Jul 2022 | 1 year ago

The Alamo Guest House is exquisite! From the first moment we entered, until the time we left, everything was perfect. The hosts are all wonderful - friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Our room was very comfortable and the whole house was quiet - no noise or disturbances from anyone. The breakfasts were delicious - you can order what you want and a fresh-baked croissant every morning is a perfect way to start the day. The location is also great - in a quiet residential area across from a park, within walking distance of many top sights and restaurants. We absolutely loved our stay and hope to return someday.

My wife and I stayed here during the lead up to our wedding. We chose the Alamo based on the size and beauty of the rooms, and the proximity to the neighboring Boutique 50 hotel where our wedding party members stayed. We had some special requests for the wedding day which the staff were very gracious about accommodating, and we were made to feel as though we were part of the family!The room was large and beautifully furnished, and while it has some quirks these are largely due to the age of the building and its historical status.Overall we enjoyed our stay and adore the staff, and would recommend the Alamo to other travelers.

I definitely would recommend room 2 to anyone.Breakfast on both days was amazing with a vast array of options served in a stunning dining room.The staff were amazing the whole weekend, we didn't catch her name but the woman who served us breakfast before we checked out could not have been more friendly.We couldn't recommend it more highly and we will definitely be booking to stay at the Alamo Guest House again!

On arrival, we were given the warmest of welcomes from a young man called Josh. He talked us through everything we needed to know about our stay and then personally showed us to our room. We stayed in room 12 which has a nice view overlooking the tennis courts. The room itself was very impressive, furnished with quality antique pieces in keeping with listed Victorian building. It had a modern touch too with the free standing bathtub and cleverly hidden toilet and shower. There were also tea and coffee making facilities, bathrobes, iron and ironing board and lots of other nice touches in the room. Breakfast the next morning was the best hotel breakfast ever. There was a menu with both cold and hot offers and all the produce was quality. I thought it was a particularly nice touch that the fruit juices were served in cute little carafe type bottles. Everything was cooked to order and to perfection. Well done all round Alamo.

We had one night stop over at Alamo Guest House and it was absolutely wonderful. All the staff were incredibly friendly, the room was pretty and comfortable and the breakfast tasty and generous. The location is quiet but close to lots of great bars and restaurants. Even though the bathroom is outside the room, it was still nice and private and easy enough to access.We loved walking around the park and taking in the West End. Would definitely come back.

We stayed at Alamo Guest House with another three sets of friends for a family wedding in Glasgow.The house is situated in a quiet area a stones throw from The Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum and The Kelvin Hall; there are a number of decent eateries and bars within easy walking distance of the Alamo Guest House although, even midweek in early June, it's best to book ahead to get a table between 6pm - 9pm in the evening.A taxi ride to the Alamo from central Glasgow (we travelled to Queen Street railway station from the Borders) takes just under 15 minutes and costs a tenner (with tip).Various buses will also get you there but they will take around 20 minutes.Couldn't really fault the accommodation - room was spacious with lovely en-suite shower room and the breakfast was gorgeous; the host also kindly sat all of our group at one set of tables he pushed together - a nice touch I thought.If you have mobility issues it would be wise to speak with the guest house as a number of rooms are reached by quite steep/turning stairs - they do have rooms on the ground floor if this will be an issue for you.I would have no hesitation in recommending the Alamo Guest House and will use it again if I'm back in Glasgow.

As soon as I arrived I was received by Steve, the co-owner, who was very welcoming and accommodating. Steve kindly was able to offer me an upgrade due to a last-minute cancellation - I learned that the staff were all very flexible as to giving the customer the best-suited room for them.The building has been meticulously thought through and restored to a beautiful, functional, luxurious, Victorian guest house. I saw 4 of the rooms over my stay - both standard and luxury - and I would have been very happy in any one of them.Breakfast was delicious and every dish was made with love and proper produce. The staff were always relaxed, attentive, and helpful, without being overbearing in the least.Being able to order takeaway and bring it to the room in the evening was also a bonus as this made my solo visit as restorative as I needed.The guest house is clearly surrounded by fabulous restaurants and bars for anybody looking to partake.I met with family after a couple of nights who also got to stay overnight and they were as impressed as I.We will return, thank you Alamo!

Reviewer: Kezia P | Thu 19th May 2022 | 1 year ago
Opting for somewhere that was a bit more personal than the usual offering of the generic boxes on offer walking distance from the Hydro, I came across the Alamo Guest House’s website. There are many pictures displaying what their rooms are like. I was so impressed that I booked Room 12. To say I was blown away was an understatement! Initially, we were greeted by a member of staff who was so friendly. The Victorian property has been lovingly restored with a funky edge and the love and care oozes out of every wall. We met with both owners during our stay, they were so kind and generous with their time and the breakfast was delicious to boot!I sound gushy but it truly was a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back and have no hesitation recommending this wee gem, a stones throw from Kelvingrove Museum in the West End of Glasgow.
Reviewer: Mrs M | Wed 18th May 2022 | 1 year ago
Staying at the Alamo was an extra special experience. It was worth staying for the architecture alone but we were also very well looked after and the breakfasts were excellent. The Alamo is in an excellent position for visiting cultural venues including the Huntarian and the Kelvin Grove Art Gallery. The rooms were quiet yet it is only a few hundred yards from Sauchihall & Argyll Streets.

We booked the Alamo based on a referral from a friend of a friend and we weren’t disappointed.Beautifully appointed room in a gorgeous Victorian building, extensive breakfast menu, quiet but very handy location in the west end of Glasgow (very close to restaurants, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and transport) and very lovely & friendly onsite hosts (Emma & Steve).A few other points that were key to us enjoying our stay:- Considering they have a number of rooms, it was extremely quiet and we never heard other guests.- We left really early on our final day & Steve made up a breakfast package for us to have before we left which we weren’t expecting, lovely surprise!- There is also a shared fridge that guest can utilise which was really handyWill definitely stay here again if we make it back to Glasgow.Tip: I booked through a booking site which is more expensive. If you book direct with Alamo, you get a better price.

This was our second stay at the Alamo Guest House and we’d definitely hope to stay here again when visiting Glasgow in future. The owner/staff are really friendly, welcoming and helpful. Our standard double room had a private bathroom (most rooms are en suite) and, whilst quite compact, was attractive and very comfortable. Breakfasts are delicious, with lots of choice and good vegetarian options. The Alamo is in a beautiful area, really convenient for the West End, but also walking distance of the city centre.

Alamo Guest House was our second choice. We usually go to Premier Inn as you know what you're getting. However, we were not disappointed. An easy bus ride from the airport, great welcome, and a lovely comfy room. Breakfast was first class and included in the price. Wifi was very quick and television high quality. Alamos location meant we were walking distance from Kelvingrove Museum and Gallery which we really enjoyed and it's on the route for the Hop On Hop Off Tour Bus which we made use of to see everything else. A perfect weekend break, they even fixed wall to wall sunshine. Thank you.

We stayed in room 7 , it was just the right size had beautiful furniture and a VERY comfortable bed!Had everyone needed even dressing gowns and ironing board & ironThe bathroom is outside the room , the bath & shower were both great , lots of hot water ! The decor wasn’t really in keeping with the rest of the hotel and I found it quite claustrophobic.Breakfast was perfect the fruit salad was REALLY nice !We will definitely book here again when we visit Glasgow next

The guesthouse is in a wonderful location and the building is stunning. Its clear that he owners really care about it and a lot of love goes into the place. Our room was great but the beds were not very comfy and need an update. The breakfast was fantastic and the service was also outstanding.
Reviewer: Rhiann S | Tue 1st Mar 2022 | 1 year ago
We had the most beautiful room, very quiet, in a wonderfully restored building, right across the street from Kelvingrove park. It gets better: the staff was very attentive, and when we mentioned that we had to eat in our room (due to covid restrctions), our hot breakfast made to order was ready fir us every morning to eat in our room.We cannot say enough about how accommodating Steve, Emma and the friendly staff made our stay a lovely retreat.

This was the second time I have stayed at The Alamo Guesthouse and it lived up to the experience I enjoyed the first time I was here. Lovingly restored the architectural features are stunning and the service received from all was first class. In addition to the warm welcome and beautiful features the hearty flavoursome breakfast is another reason to stay.

The rooms have been equipped and decorated to an exceptional standard, with comfortable furnishings.The breakfast was delicious!

Reviewer: Julian C | Tue 1st Feb 2022 | 1 year ago
Nice quiet hotel very close/ walking distance to art gallery / university / cafes and restaurants with parking available outside on the street which is a quiet residential street beside tennis courts and park.Staff were brilliant friendly informative and helpful. Breakfast was well catered, fresh fruit salad a highlight and a good selection of teas.Room was comfy but the reason I have only given four stars is that the bathroom radiator was not working and even though we were given a portable heater immediately that this was pointed out it was still not ideal to have to plug in a heater and wait ten minutes for the bathroom to warm up before taking a shower. (I'm sure this will be fixed in the next few days).All in all would definitely stay here again. Recommend.
Response
Dear Danusia,Thankyou for your lovely back :)I am so sorry that you experienced problems with the heater in the bathroom. It was most certainly not ideal having the heater in place to warm the shower room .We have an electrician looking at it today and hopefully it is an easy fix. Thankyou for being so understanding.I am sorry we were not here to meet you and look forward to meeting you in the future :)

We had the most wonderful stay at Alamo Guest House from the very first warm welcome by the hosts and employees. The room was absolutely stunning and left us in awe with all the little details and immaculate touches that made us feel at home. The comfort, cleanliness and ambient atmosphere were of the exclusive standard. Our favourite thing was a rainfall shower and self-standing bath. The hosts were extremely friendly, attentive and accommodating to our requests. We’ve truly felt spoiled by their above and beyond treatment. The breakfast, which was included in the stay, was superb and plentiful and the selection of food was great. Their impeccable and warm hospitality will definitely bring us back to this place next time we’re in Glasgow!

Stayed at the Alamo to go to a concert at the SEC Hydro. Received a very warm welcome from Katie and shown to our room (No3) which was very comfortable. Ideally suited for the SEC and for the city centre which is a ten minute bus ride away. Breakfast was served in a very nice dining room with choice of continental and cooked. Will use again without hesitation.

A lovely stay at the Alamo - our first but unlikely to be our last. The room was lovely, Steve welcoming and helpful, the breakfast was great. Location wise you've got plenty of good places to eat out within 5 - 10 minutes walk, Kelvingrove Park and the Gallery and Museum on your doorstep. The city centre a short hop (or slightly longer walk) away. Highly recommended.

We liked the comfortable and finely decorated room, quiet ambience and excellent breakfast. Situated across from Kelvingrove Park, this is a beautiful, leafy and quietarea of Glasgow just 30 minutes walk from Central station. But what makes the Alamo particularly special is the warmth of the staff and their attention to detail. Would recommend the Alamo without hesitation.

Upside - staff very helpful and courteous, location is really nice and the breakfast was lovely. Downside - attention to detail in the room decoration regarding crystalising plasterwork and paint touch-ups. The bathroom extractor fan wasn't sufficient for the amount of steam and the shower overflowed onto the shower room floor.

My wife and I stayed in Room 12 for a couple of days recently. Steve and his staff were great hosts, very welcoming and helpful. Parking was arranged at the hotel and was only £8 for two days. The location is great, with Finnieston offering a good selection of pubs and restaurants.The only downside was the bath was too comfortable and I struggled to pull her indoors away from it. A really lovingly restored boutique hotel and we will be back.
Reviewer: Michael B | Tue 19th Oct 2021 | 2 years ago
Came through with my partner from Edinburgh to spend a long weekend in the big city. The guest house was in a perfect location in the Kelvingrove area and just couple streets away from a diverse selection of restaurants, bars, etc… We didn’t have to go far to get food and drinks and enjoy a night out. The complimentary breakfast was superb with loads of options (fry up, continental) and we loved the option of having it brought in the room one morning. It was easy to find a parking space right across the street. Our room was small but super cosy and clean, toilets and shower room were just outside but the whole building feels like a home so it really felt like we were moving around our own house. Bonus point for the bathrobes! And staff were all around super accommodating and welcoming, top notch customer service. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back, really great value for money.

The Alamo Guest House is in a beautiful part of the city next to the park and across from grass tennis courts. The building has 19th century charm and 21st century conveniences.

Did I mention the tasty breakfasts? This should be your choice in Glasgow.

Found The Alamo online as I needed a home from home when visiting my daughter, a first year student at the nearby University of Glasgow. This charming guest house did not disappoint. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and my room (No. 7), was elegant, cosy and spotlessly clean. I was so impressed I invited my daughter to stay the night and she liked it so much she stayed for all three nights. Very tasty hot breakfast too, cooked exactly as we asked and served in the beautiful breakfast room. Its location right next to the beautiful park is perfect too. Looking forward to my next visit already.

My husband and I stayed at the Alamo guest house last weekend and we could not have been happier.The guest house itself is beautifully decorated, wonderful high ceilings and huge sash windows, while still maintaining a warm and cosy feel.We stayed in room 10 which was stunning, huge comfortable bed and stand-alone bath in the room but also had an en-suite and rainfall shower wet room.The room was quiet, comfortable and spotlessly clean, (cleaned every day of our stay and fresh towels provided).The owners and staff were so welcoming and helpful during our stay and the breakfasts are wonderful, all lovely fresh ingredients cooked perfectly.The guest house could not be in a better location, it is on a quiet street overlooking Kelvingrove park and within walking distance of the lovely West end bars and restaurants, art gallery etc but also a short walk from the centre of Glasgow.We are so pleased we chose to stay here and will definitely be returning, lovely guesthouse, lovely city, lovely people.

When we came across this lovely, cosy wee place we just loved it instantly! Going by we got the last room which was a small king size but just perfect! Shows how popular it is! I would recommend you visit this place, check out all the beautiful available rooms an book through the website. Thank you so much! We will definitely be back.

Wonderfully located in a very quiet street off Sauchiehall st, but close to Kelvingrove Park, Argyle St and the SSEC. Fantastic hospitality, very customer focused but not intrusive. Superb breakfast, with a wide variety of options, the cooked breakfast is one of the best I have ever had ( and I've had a few) Lovely room, comfortable bed, a TV that was easy to use and a great bathroom with a fantastic shower. Thoroughly recommend the Alamo and would re book whenever we are back in Glasgow

Stayed one night at the Alamo Guest House as attending a concert in the area.Beautiful room and spotlessly clean.We were made to feel very welcome and nothing too much trouble for the Hosts.Lovely breakfast!!Would definitely recommend a stay here and would love to visit again!!!
Reviewer: Dawn L | Thu 9th Sep 2021 | 2 years ago
The staff were extremely helpful & friendly. Very accommodating. Breakfast was exceptionally good. Liked the room but hadn’t realised it was a basement location. Comfortable bed but would have liked a more comfortable chair to sit on as the window bench seats are difficult to relax on.
Reviewer: Brian R | Wed 8th Sep 2021 | 2 years ago
I have stayed in the Alamo before, about 7 years ago for Hogmanay. It was then one of the most welcoming, comfortable and loveliest stays I had experienced, and that hasn’t changed. Rooms are beautiful, clean and comfortable. The breakfast is superb. The beautiful house is in a great location, right next to Kelvingrove Park andvery close to the lovely art gallery there. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Glasgow.
Reviewer: Emily C | Tue 7th Sep 2021 | 2 years ago
The Alamo is restored with such love.

Thank you for such a lovely stay

This is a lovely house with a warm welcome and excellent attention to detail. The proprietor and staff certainly go that extra mile to accommodate all your needs. The situation is perfect for quiet walks, bars, dining, history, art, shopping. What could be better?
Reviewer: Peter P | Sun 5th Sep 2021 | 2 years ago
We only stayed one night but left wishing we could stay longer. A huge amount of thought has been given to every aspect of your stay as a guest and all if this is u deepened by the warmest, most generous service from the staff who couldn’t do enough for us from the minute we arrived. Highly recommended.

I had a lovely stay at the Alamo Guest House. The owners were so friendly and welcomingand really set the tone for the stay. The room I booked was very fancy and the stand alone bath facing the TV was just luxury. Also I absolutely loved the breakfast, best veggie haggis I’ve tasted.

This was our first visit to Glasgow and the Alamo is in a great location, quiet and close to parks, art gallery and restaurants and bars. We stayed for 4 nights.Front of house Jennifer and Katie are great and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was relaxed and you can use the breakfast/dinning room throughout the day and can eat take out meals here. Housekeeping changed our room daily and this was done to a high standard. We would certainly stay again and try to get one of the larger rooms.
Reviewer: Mark R | Thu 26th Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
I recently stayed with my daughter for a two night stay in Glasgow and I'm very glad that we found the Alamo for our trip. We were warmly welcomed and shown to our cosy room, which was beautifully and traditionally decorated with excellent facilities. Breakfast was included in our stay and also did not disappoint. We would definitely stay again, thank you for a memorable visit.
Reviewer: Linda S | Thu 26th Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
Having been let down by another hotel , we found The Alamo as a very last minute replacement. We certainly got lucky !The combination of our hosts(Katy) warm welcome, wonderful decor and possibly the best breakfast we have ever had sure is a winning one.
Reviewer: Stuart S | Sun 22nd Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
My name is Karen Bambrobut for some reason this site shows the name of my travelling companion, Hazel, a newcomer to the Alamo.I don’t know how they do it, but every time I stay at the Alamo it is even more enjoyable.Its position, a 5 minute walk from the Kelvingrove museum & near a range of excellent restaurants in a beautiful, quiet area is the first thing to mention. The magnificent entrance hall is matched by the beautiful rooms, allrestored to the period of the building but with modern, stylish bathrooms, superbly comfortable beds & plenty of electric sockets & WiFi recharging points. I particularly appreciate the hospitality tray containing not only a variety of tea & coffee-making items, but also a full sized kettle, proper wine glasses & a decent corkscrew.Breakfast is generous with plenty of choice & good Scottish ingredients, freshly cooked & served promptly in a lovely room overlooking the tennis courts. All staff & family members are friendly, courteous, helpful & efficient, ready to make recommendations about restaurants, things to see, arrange taxis etc.I wouldn’t dream of staying anywhere else in Glasgow & recommend the Alamo to anyone visiting this beautiful city. I can’t wait to return.

Reviewer: Louise H | Sun 22nd Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
Really great place to stay: perfect location (easy walk to Argyll St, Byres Road, Hydro, Kelvingrove Park), friendly and helpful staff and an extremely good breakfast. The room was very clean and spacious and the whole place had clear covid rules that were stuck-to by the staff. While we were there they had an issue with their boiler but this was resolved quickly and efficiently by the staff and they gave us a big reduction on our bill as an apology. First class service, thank you! Will definitely stay again next time we're in Glasgow.

Reviewer: Judith G | Thu 19th Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Alamo guest house. Katie gave us a fantastic welcome and was very helpful. The shared rooms are beautifully decorated and our bedroom was lovely. Its situation next to Kelvingrove park is peaceful and yet it is close to the art gallery, museum, university and West end shops as well as plenty of well-priced, creative restaurants and cafes. We walked into town a few times but you can also catch a subway from Kelvingrove station. If we return to Glasgow we would definitely stay at the Alamo again.
Reviewer: Susanna G | Wed 18th Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
Katy greeted us warmly and introduced us to the history and features of the house. So much thought and effort has clearly been put in to making this a gorgeous building to stay in.Our room was comfortable and the breakfast delicious. Definitely highly recommend.

Something different in the West End of the City - fed up with the major hotel brands, I tried the Alamo Guest House.Excellent accommodation, great service, wonderful breakfast and all in a great location within walking distance of Kelvingrove attractions.Would highly recommend Alamo Guest House to Glasgow visitors.
Reviewer: Paul D | Sun 15th Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
My friend and I stayed at the Alamo Guest House for two nights in Room 4. We were so impressed!! The Guest House has a Victorian feel and lovely decorations. I'm studying Victorian literature, so the decorations made my heart very happy! While the rooms were beautifully themed to that aesthetic, the en suite bathroom was more modern with an excellent shower and a towel heater. The bathroom also contained shampoo, conditioner, and bodywash. The bed was very comfortable and the windows in Room 4 face the back garden. It was peaceful and cozy snuggled up in the chair by the window and reading a book.I HIGHLY recommend their breakfast. Because everything was so delicious, My friend and I essentially ordered the whole menu. The fruit salad was sublime, especially with honey (be sure to request that)! We also ordered the chocolate au pains which tasted amazing. The sausages were also delicious.Katie and Jen were taking care of the Guest House while the owners were on holiday and they were exceptional! They were so accommodating and friendly and really made us feel welcome. They were stellar hosts! I will definitely be recommending the Alamo to all of my friends and family should they ever find themselves in Glasgow. I do not have a single complaint about this beautifully located gem of a place! It was a fantastic stay, thank you all so much! :-)

Have nothing butgood things to say about the Alamo Guest House, Right from the moment we were greeted at the front door the welcome was 5 star. We stayed in room 10 which again was 5 star, bed was super comfy and the room was fantastic.We stayed 2 nights and on both mornings we had a fantastic breakfast which was cooked to order, again the service from the team was 5 star.It not very often we return to hotel or guest house but we will definitely return to the Alamo againKeep up the good work and well done.

Their was another lovely girl with blond hair to serving us at breakfast but didn’t catch her name. It was lovely to hear about the family business and the antique details in the decor. The hotel was also in a great location & We will definitely be back and would recommend to our friends and family.

Reviewer: Claire C | Tue 3rd Aug 2021 | 2 years ago
We visit Glasgow regularly and we’re keen to stay in the quieter and greener west end rather than the town centre. The Alamo was a real find - luxuriously comfortable, a breakfast feast and a super friendly and professional team looking after us. We stayed in Room 12 and loved sitting in the enormous bay window overlooking Kelvingrove Park. Would recommend without hesitation and will definitely return.
Reviewer: Katie M | Mon 2nd Aug 2021 | 2 years ago

Reviewer: Emmet C | Tue 27th Jul 2021 | 2 years ago
Katy's meet and greet was very welcoming and instantly put us at ease. The building itself is well situated for our aim of visiting the Stand Comedy club, 5 minutes walk away and is also very close to a vinbrant strip of pubs, restaurants and pub diners.Around 30 minutes walk into the center of glasgow, or a 5/10 minute taxi ride.The breakfast was first class too and the building is wonderfully decorated and well maintained.I felt like we'd been on the TV gameshow "four in a bed", our accomodation was underpriced by at least 10 pound per night!
Reviewer: Gary J | Mon 26th Jul 2021 | 2 years ago
We decided to choose this guest house after reading other views and it didn’t disappoint. From the first phone call with Jennifer to when we left she couldn’t do enough to accommodate us. We were visiting our son in Glasgow and asked if we could pay for him to join us for breakfast which was arranged and very delicious we was so looked after by both Jennifer and Katy. It’s a beautiful old building which has been lovingly restored by the owners. Our room was very clean and comfortable the bathroom was just outside and for our use only with everything we needed supplied. The location is perfect with everything on the doorstep from good restaurants bars and a beautiful park opposite and it’s only a thirty minute walk from the city centre if you require some retail therapy. We will be returning and definitely recommend this guest house if you are visiting Glasgow.
Reviewer: Karen G | Mon 26th Jul 2021 | 2 years ago
This property is not only in the most amazing part of Glasgow, but the property itself is an amazing late 1880 period property restored to a fantastic standard.Now bare this in mind, this was a treat for my Wife's 50th Birthday, we are from Wakefield, West Yorkshire. So we travelled 4 hours to stay here, me myself and also my Wife agrees 100% what a fantastic guest house, we had room 1, 4 poster, ensuite. Stunning!!Then you have Steve and his Wife, again very welcoming and the breakfasts are great, we could have whatever we wanted and as much as we liked, we do not abuse this, but we had what we wanted and A Grade food served and presented very well.We will return here as it is in a perfect place as a base to search and travel anywhere within Glasgow and surrounds.Would recommend a trip to Loch Lomond on the cruises, and a drive to the Trossachs.So to sum our 4 day visit to the Alamo Guest House and Glasgow, DO IT, Book a trip and get booked in to avoid disappointment, as this place is a true treasure, and best of all, the bars and restaurants are all within an easy 5 minute walk, most of the best restaurants and bard in Glasgow.Just a note to all. Steve his Wife and dedicated staff adhere to all Covid related restrictions and distancing in the dining room.Well done, keep up the good work, we will be back.Simon & BeverleyMid July 2021 - Fantastic

I would describe this B&B as a labour of love. The owner is absolutely lovely and has personally decorated every room in a warm and eclectic style. You feel very looked after when you're there, and there's a lot of flexibility if you need it (we could stash our bikes in the shed). If you're stopping in Glasgow for a night or two, you should book here

Lovely stay at the Alamo. Very warm welcome from Jennifer who made the stay perfect. We loved that this is a guest house. Not a standard hotel room, but somewhere where you actually feel like a welcome guest e.g. we were able to use the dining room for a takeaway which was great. The room was very comfortable, great shower and breakfast.

We had a nightmare journey up, but despite our late arrival, Steve treated us as friends. Our room was upgraded, at no extra cost, which was a lovely surprise. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Breakfast was smashing, set us up for the day. Jennifer, the waitress, was friendly, and helpful, she ordered a pizza for my partner, on the Saturday night. Will be staying again, as worth every penny.

We had room 12 which was beautiful and so comfortable, with a fabulous drench shower and a beautifully designed en-suite which was really well done. The room also had a free standing bath which was also a great addition to an already impressive room. Breakfast was a triumph and one of the best we’ve ever had. The owner was such a great guy, couldn’t do enough for you and we would recommend this accommodation to anyone that wants a touch of class, a great host and a nice chilled experience. Thanks again Steve!

We stayed for 2 nights at the Alamo Guest House and really wished we were staying for longer! The welcome and service was second to none. The house itself is in a great location - on a quiet street neighbouring Kelvingrove Park and so close to many bars and restaurants. The place was very clean and tastefully decorated. We stayed in room 10 which was amazing - plenty of space and designed cleverly to marry old and new features. We will definitely be staying again and recommending to anyone going to Glasgow!

Steve, Emma and all the other staff we met made us feel welcome. The hotel is beautifully decorated, look at the ceilings! Breakfast was freshly made and as much as you wanted. With Covid at the moment, we felt very safe. We had room 12, so many lights and switches - mood lighting, even lights around the bath. Room serviced and towels changed daily. The room overlooked the park.

It was the perfect Scottish experience, so much so that my bar is now set very high for future visits to Glasgow.

This was the 2nd stay at the Alamo, and it was another perfect stay. This time we stayed in Room 10. It was extremely well decorated and finished, felt luxurious, cosy and welcoming. The staff at the Alamo are great, always on hand and friendly, and even gave us cutlery, plates and glasses for us to enjoy our dinner in our room. The breakfast is the best I have had in any hotel or b and b before. The area is beautiful with kelvingrove on its doorstep, the surrounding area has THE BEST restaurants in Glasgow and there is so much to do, even in Covid times. It is our favourite place to stay and we cannot wait to stay again.

We stayed at the Alamo Guest House the night before and after getting married. Emma, Steve and team were wonderful and could not have done more for us and the Alamo is absolutely unrivalled in terms of the room we stayed in. The monsoon shower and massive bath were very much enjoyed! The breakfast was delicious too. We will be back for sure and we live in Glasgow!

I booked this as I’ve looked everywhere including the highest ranking hotels in Glasgow for a room as special asroom 10. We’re from Glasgow and love weekends at hotels and stayed there Friday and Saturday just passed.We’ve stayed at the Blythswood which is stunning but genuinely not as enjoyable as The Alamo. Not to mention the fact that our stay was nicer and cost less for two nights than one at the Blythswood. It was so cheap that I booked two nights and would have stayed three if I were able to get the Monday off work. The photographs do NOT do this place justice. The room is humongous, modern with a classical twist. I think thatit’s been a large living room or dining area in the 1800s. A bath inside the room! The owners are really relaxed and mentioned we could bring food in and eat it in the dinning room (where breakfast is also served). They brought us plates and cutlery and were more than happy for us to eat a grubby Chinese in the stunning dining room with beautiful views. As we were the only guests dining at the time, they even provided us with an Alexa for back ground music! There is also a large fridge which is solely for guests to store whatever they wish, alcohol, snacks etc. We’re from Glasgow and felt like we were on holiday. So much so we’ve booked again for next week!

We have stayed at the Alamo when visiting Glasgow for ten years now. It just gets better and better. Even with Covid restrictions we found it a relaxing place to return to. Steve and Emma are excellent hosts. The beds are hugely comfortable and the breakfast is generous. Five star experience.

Reviewer: Joel C | Wed 23rd Sep 2020 | 3 years ago
We stayed at the Alamo on Sunday 20th September, and were in room 10. We specifically chose this room as friends of ours had stayed here the previous week and spoke very highly of the room and it’s facilities and the House experience overall.Room 10 is fantastic, with the en suite bathroom, bath and exceptionally comfortable bath. Steve and his wife are very warm, welcoming hosts and the breakfast we had on our morning of departure was lovely too.All in all a very worthwhile visit and one we’ll likely make again.
Reviewer: Craig S | Tue 22nd Sep 2020 | 3 years ago

Absolutely the best place to stay and exceptional value for money. Our room was so stylish and luxurious with the most amazing shower I've ever experienced. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was fantastic with lots of choices including great haggis ( and veggie haggis). Loved the location too right by the park and with so many diverse cafes and restaurants on the doorstep. We were absolutely spoilt for choice. We would really highly recommend The Alamo and cant wait for our next stay!
Reviewer: Helen M | Sat 5th Sep 2020 | 3 years ago
The location of the Alamo right next to Kelvingrove Park is perfect. A 30min walk to the centre but next to lots of great places to visit. Steve and Emma were great at making us feel welcome and were kind to upgrade us. The hotel is beautifully decorated with exquisite touches. Breakfast was freshly made and excellent quality- perfect cooking of the black pudding! Would strongly recommend especially at the moment if you want to feel safe whilst away.

I stayed here for two nights in August 2020 while visiting Glasgow. The owners, Steve and Emma, were very friendly and welcoming from the start and the guesthouse itself is cosy and very comfortable. They were very accommodating when I decided to spend an extra night in Glasgow and the breakfast both mornings was delicious and the perfect start to the day. Would really recommend this place and hope to stay again next time I’m in Glasgow.
Reviewer: Grace C | Sat 29th Aug 2020 | 3 years ago

Really beautifully renovated and tidy victorian manor in lovely Westend, right next to Kelvingrove park/museum & Glasgow University. A variety of good restaurants, bars & individual shops right around the corner.Lovely owners. Thank you for everything, Steve! Room 3 had all comfort one could wish for. Very good breakfast (cold & warm) and they even changed breakfast preparation on the go for my vegan partner. Sad to leave - but we'll be back!

Once again we were given a warm welcome by Steve and Emma, who had prepared our bedroom exactly to our requested specification.In the face of coronavirus uncertainties, they worked hard to provide as normal a service as possible.In particulsr, the breakfastscontinued to be tasty and plentiful.The bedroom was thoroughly serviced every day.All in all, an excellent return visit.

We stayed 2 nights in this beautifully restored Victorian townhouse.The hosts, Steve and Emma were super and did everything to make our stay enjoyable and comfortable.Steve gave us great advice on places to visit and eat.This guesthouse is perfectly located for visiting key museums, is on sightseeing bus-route and a short hop from Glasgow city centre.
Reviewer: Ling L | Sun 15th Mar 2020 | 3 years ago
We have stayed at the Alamo before, and we are never disappointed. The welcome is warm, the hotel is so comfortable...the bed even more so, and the breakfast is delicious. There is nothing your hosts won’t do to ensure you have a restful and enjoyable stay. They get Five Stars from us and we’d highly recommend this lovely hotel to anyone looking for a great place to stay in Glasgow. Not too far from the city centre, right next to the Kelvingrove Museum and still very peaceful...easy parking too!
Reviewer: Carol S | Fri 13th Mar 2020 | 3 years ago

We had a lovely stay at the Alamo Guest House. Perfectly situated for parks, restaurants and museums in a quiet part of Glasgow, we were still walking distance from the centre of town. Our room was stylishly decorated and thoughtfully equipped, while the guest lounge was stunning. Breakfast was delicious, with options to suit every taste and appetite, and our hosts friendly and helpful. Thank you and we look forward to returning! Vikki and David, Edinburgh.
Reviewer: Vikki P | Sun 1st Mar 2020 | 3 years ago
For a 3 night stay with my partner joining me on the second night, we opted for a bigger room with a bath AND shower. We weren’t disappointed. The rainfall shower is perfect, & the bath a real indulgence if you want to wash in front of the telly! The bed was incredibly comfortable, & the room is peaceful & cosy - heating works a treat but can be controlled by guests if you want it cooler. Lighting, sockets, storage space, tea & coffee choices are all ideal. Add to this a warm welcome & delicious breakfast with a huge array of choices & you really can’t do better. The location is also ideal, whether for the West End or the city centre. We’ll be back!

Stayed in Room 12 on Thursday night as part of an overnight stay in Glasgow. Guest house was a very short walk from restaurants and bars on Argyle St, and a stones throw from the Kelvingrove Museum. Steve and Emma were excellent hosts and passionate about their place. This showed in the high standard of accommodation supplied and breakfast was also of a high standard. Won’t hesitate in booking again.

I chose the Alomo primarily for its location; walking distance to both SECC and Kelvingrove. The guest house itself was beautiful and deserving of all the positive comments I had read. The rooms were tastefully decorated and a pleasant departure from the uniform decor of large chains. Staff were friendly and helpful. Plenty of choice at breakfast to suit a fuzzy 9 year old as well as a delicious cooked option. Highly recommended on all counts.
Reviewer: Olive C | Mon 3rd Feb 2020 | 3 years ago
A real hidden gem in Glasgow’s West End! For anyone looking for traditional old style tenements with loads of original features but a great modern twist then this is absolutely the place for you! We were lucky enough to stay in room 12, the best one! A bath in the bay window, luxury modern shower, huge room with plenty of storage and all of the beautiful original features, large old windows, beautiful furniture, gorgeous (hand painted) cornicing. I honestly cannot fault it! The bed was absolute luxury with huge pillows and an extra thick duvet. Morning service was fantastic and the hosts were lovely to speak with also. We will absolutely, absolutely be back soon!

This is a truly lovely place to stay in Glasgow with rooms that are as tasteful as the they are comfortable.

The room was beautifully decorated, comfortable and warm, the bath was incredible and luxurious, and there was a rain shower which I didn't even expect.The owners seemed lovely when they met us at breakfast, and the guesthouse atmosphere of being given keys made the whole place feel very homey.

We’ve just had a really lovely stay at the house for my wife’s birthday and we both really really enjoyed it! The house has a great feel to it, historic yet modern and very cosy/welcoming. The room was amazing and very relaxing, spotlessly clean and warm and with a humongous HD TV on the wall..and a cracking 4-poster bed. The Canadian girl that works there looked after us so well. She was very friendly, easy to talk to, and helpful..without being overpowering or in your face, like some hotel staff are these days. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and perfect in every way, with a fantastic selection of hot or cold food..with some nice veggie options too. Watching the squirrels running around the oak trees outside the breakfast room window this morning was an added bonus, I don’t think they were hired by the hotel or anything though.. ;) We’ll most definitely be back! 10/10

This hotel/guest house is not part of a chain. The welcome was warm and personal. Steve showed us around and gave us the history of the property. It’s obviously a labour of love for Steve and Emma, who both made us feel welcome. They can be justifiably proud of the design and decor. The room we had was fabulous (we had room 12). The location is great-close to the University, Kelvingrove Park and the West End. Taxi to town is reasonable and the hosts can organise one easily if asked. Breakfast is great. Buffet and full cooked including haggis and potato cakes. All this for a very reasonable price. Definitely would use again if in Glasgow.

There are restaurants aplenty in the streets nearby and it’s a straightforward walk to the vibrant Glasgow centre if you feel energetic.

This is the second time that I have stayed here and it is my preferred guest house when I am visiting Glasgow.Steve & Emma are very welcoming and tend to my needs very well. The rest of the team is very courteous and helpful whether you speak to them over the phone or on arrival.It has everything that you could possibly want from a nice quiet relaxing stay, with period features and a sumptuous breakfast if you need setting up for the day.Whilst the Alamo doesn't provide evening meals there are enough good quality nearby restaurants, takeaways, and bars that cater to all needs all within reasonable walking distance.The more energetic of you could play at the lawn tennis grounds opposite the guest house if you need to work off the meal from the night before or the breakfast.In my opinion, this is the best place to stay in Glasgow and I have stayed in a few hotels in the area.Great value, great team and great service! 5 out of 5

Rain shower and bath were so good and it was also very helpful to have full size toiletries not small miniature ones that run out after 1 use!The breakfast was so good especially the eggs and bacon!!Really close to to local attractions but out of the way from noise from traffic etc.Staff were friendly, helpful and i felt went out of their way to make sure we were happy.Would definitely stay here again.

Spectacular location (two minute walk to the Kelvingrove Museum and surrounded with many outstanding restaurants); friendly, attentive and helpful owners/staff(!); and decorated in a fun mix of period antiques and quirky modern accents. Why chose any other place?

Great four day stay at Alamo guest house. Loved the location beside the park away from the city centre. Great little shops and eateries nearby. Steve and Emma are great hosts and provide a warm welcome, great interior design, really clean rooms and change of towels daily and super breakfast. Dont say it often but top marks!

From the moment we arrived, The Alamo felt like home. Staff were so lovely, made us feel comfortable from the off.Our room was so beautifully decorated, very much in keeping with the house itself, it felt right and was fresh and very clean.Breakfast was to die for, juices, fresh fruit, yoghurts, cereals, pastries and of course a superb full cooked Scottish breakfast with plenty of tea and coffee.We visit Glasgow and surrounding areas whenever we can and will definitely come back to the Alamo!

Maria was on duty this weekend past whilst my sister and I stayed, she was lovely and very professional. Our room was room 8, it had shared bathroom facilities which I will admit I was a little apprehensive of, however I cannot fault them, two big bathrooms and another single toilet facility. No queues whatsoever! Our room was clean and luxurious with lots of the buildings original character which is also right through the whole house. Breakfast was lovely also. Cannot fault anything with Alamo Guest House.

The Alamo was the perfect location for our brief visit to Glasgow.Centrally located near parks, museums and good restaurants; all within a 5-15 minute walk. Our room was very comfortable and clean. There was a good variety of foods for breakfast and the staff was extremely hospitable/professional.Very accommodating whether it was arranging a cab back to the airport or offering to print our boarding passes.Would stay here again!

Emma and Steve are the best hosts. They went out of there way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything for our stay. The room (Number 10) was elegant, comfortable, clean and the bed was the best out of all the places we have stayed in Europe.The rain shower was amazing. The soaker tub was great after walking all day. They are very accommodating for gluten free allergy and they have a guest refrigerator for leftovers, etc. The breakfast was fantastic. The Alamo Guest House is right in the middle of many great restaurants and shops. Its the perfect place to stay. The next time we come to Glasgow we will definitely stay there.

We recently stayed at the Alamo Guest house in Glasgow.The room was decorated in period pieces, with a very comfortable bed and a nice view of the park across the street.The shower was amazing - like a ceiling of rain coming down.The location was perfect for our needs too - within walking distance of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and also near a bus stop for the Hop-On-Hop-Off bus service in Glasgow.There are several restaurants nearby also.The Alamo's breakfast was very good, lots of fruit, pastries and eggs.Especially nice was the manager/owner, who went out of his way to make our stay so nice.The morning we left, we needed to be at the train station early enough that we could not get breakfast.He graciously opened the breakfast area early for us.

This guest house is a delight, and it seems a very well kept secret as we had never spotted it before in four years of constant stays in Glasgow. Booked direct with the hotel we managed to book a lovely family room for two adults and a child. £89 and we had a wonderful cooked breakfast and wi-fi included. Only £4 a day to park too which compared to the astronomical fees we were accustomed to paying in the city was for nothing!Rooms and bathrooms are spotless and the rain shower was out of this world. Thanks all for a great stay and showing us the other rooms too. Will be back in the next couple of months for room 1. Chris/Sharon/Jack from Castle Douglas

We were greeted very hospitably at the Alamo and shown the "ropes". by the owners.We did not then really have any more communication with them although there was always good staff to deal with. We had lighting deficiencies in our bathroom and these were not dealt with (we stayed for 2 nights). General feeling was that possibly the owners were becoming rather fatigued with running a B and B.

The Alamo was absolutely outstanding in every regard.Our first two nights of lodging while in Glasgow, and it couldn't have been better. On a quiet street and abutting Kelvingrove park, the location is ideal for exploring Glasgow on foot. If the weather is poor or you prefer a ride, a cab can be hailed and waiting outside in less than 5 minutes.The room we stayed in was a gorgeous mix of old and new.The bathroom had high end fixtures, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the desk and chair was most convenient.The breakfast room is stunning, very roomy, and both the hot and cold breakfast choices were top notch.The hosts and staff are so gracious and welcoming.We would be most happy to stay here again should Scotland be in our future travel plans, as I most certainly hope that it is.

We stayed 4 nights over Easter, enjoying its decor and furnishings, the quiet location, and good choice of breakfasts (from fresh fruit salad and yoghurt, to full-cooked 'Scottish' breakfast with all the trimmings).Guesthouse overlooks the Kelvingrove tennis club and Art Museum and park.Only challenge if you arrive by car, is the on-street parking.We were able to park - for free or cheaply - on all 4 days though.We will return next time we are visiting Glasgow.

Hotel is perfect location for visiting Glasgow University.Wonderfull staff. We stayed on the main floor in room 12. It was lovely but wish there was a guide for all the lights. There are many sconces and multiple switches that are frustrating when you are tired from traveling. With all the lights, it was still too dark in the bath and bedroom to apply make-up.There is a mirror on the wall next to the tub, but I never found how to light it. Otherwise, a great stay.

Reviewer: Kathy W | Wed 21st Nov 2018 | 5 years ago
From the outset, my dealings with the Alamo were very helpful when I emailed about parking. They replied promptly with all the information needed. When I arrived a lot later than planned, Steve greeted me with a warm and friendly manner and even gave me a bit of history about the place when I said how wonderful it looked inside. He was very helpful too when I asked about where to eat nearby.My room was downstairs and was perfect. It was excellent value for money considering I had one of the family rooms, spacious, quiet, tidy and clean with all the facilities you'd expect. The bathroom was a lovely touch and you were left wanting for nothing as it appeared the shower gel etc was for a male and it was not one of those small bottles that barely cleans your face and shoulders!Slept well on the firm bed. Breakfast spread was far better than any of the budget-mid priced hotel offerings. Cold selection and hot selection was perfect. They were all attentive to your needs.Personally, I'd stay here any day compared to a Premier Inn, Travel Lodge, IBIS or Holiday Inn.Thanks for a lovely stay.

I would add that our bathroom and bedroom was always clean as was the entire facility. This is a truly wonderful, well managed and charming guest house.

We spent our last night in Scotland at the Alamo and it was so wonderful. Katie, the staff member on duty, was very helpful and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The house itself is gorgeous, and we lucked out with a spectacular room -- a thoughtful and generous upgrade by the staff as it was the last night of our honeymoon! The house is perfectly located (at least for us) as it was near several of the best museums/parks in town and all the good restaurants and cafes. Also just a short drive from the airport. We're really looking forward to returning one day but will recommend the Alamo to all our friends in the meantime!

The Alamo is ideally placed to offer a short walk to the Scottish Event Campus, next door to the park and round the corner to many good restaurants.The welcome we received at the hotel is the best I have had anywhere.The decor, the breakfast everything was spot on.I was slightly apprehensive as ours was one of the two rooms that only had a sink but in fact having having the choice of two shower rooms and access to a further splendidly done out bathroom this was not an issue.We unreservedly recommend this hotel and will certainly look to stay here again if we are back up in Glasgow.
Reviewer: David H | Tue 3rd Oct 2017 | 6 years ago
Perfect location, perfect accomodations, and perfect host. Steve is an architect and the fully loaded rooms reflect his expertise. Be sure to talk with Steve about his interest in whisky and you'll learn a lot. I thought and thought about something negative to say, and all it could come up with is that our shower needed a soap tray.

Great room, excellent breakfast and a wonderful location just across from a park, a few steps away from the Kelvingrove Museum and convenient to many restaurants in the Kelvingrove area as well as the Hop On Hop Off bus stop to tour the entire city.

Reviewer: Isabel S | Tue 8th Aug 2017 | 6 years ago
Very comfortable and nice room, wonderful breakfast room and very nice personnel. For us in an ideal situation, quiet surrounding and yet not too far to explore the town. The only negative aspect, if I may say so, is that the room although very quiet by its surroundng, can be "noisy" due to people living above the room. Indeed we were woken up by (running?) footsteps in the night and in the early moring. But this should only be a problem, if you have a light sleep.

We were guests at Alamo Guesthouse for four nights and we enjoyed our stay tremendously. The guesthouse has a lot of character and was tastefully and splendidly decorated during the holiday season. The location is superb and the owners and staff were very friendly. It felt like visiting friends. Each morning we looked forward to a wonderful breakfast that consisted of an extensive buffet, while eggs, etcetera were made to order. On New Year’s Eve the guests were invited to a whiskey tasting. It was a small party with the whole family and guests and they spoilt us to bits with wonderful snacks and drinks.All said and done, this was probably the nicest B&B we ever stayed!

As with past stays at the guest house, I thoroughly enjoyed staying here. For me, it is the perfect oasis while I am visiting Glasgow. I always feel comfortable. My room was perfect. It is convenient for both the west side and accessing the city centre. It is my first choice of places to stay in Glasgow.

Just got back from staying here for two nights with my older brother after seeing Marillion in Glasgow.From an architectural point of view, this place is wonderful. It's resembles an old Scottish Lairds house with all the modern conveniences you would expect.It's easy to find just off Sauchiehall Street near Kelvingrove and is easily served by buses and a few minutes from Glasgow City Centre by Taxi or Car.We were greeted by Steve on arrival. Steve did something that has never happened to me before and I have stayed in a few hotels. He shook our hands, asked about our trip and then showed us around the hotel before finally showing us our rooms. It is only a small hotel, but I thought this was a very nice touch.The room itself was a lovely compact room. We were only sleeping there and watching the occasional bit of TV anyway. The room we were was not en suite (most are, this one wasn't) but we had plenty of choices of toilet, shower and bath facilities.Lights are dimmed after 9pm, the official reason is to encourage quiet, however, because of it's old fashioned look, I thought it made it more homely.Bed was comfy, had no problems sleeping. Flat screen TV and a selection of 500 DVD and Blu Ray's from Steve's own personal collection if you require viewing entertainment. (There's snooker on, I'm fine thanks!)Breakfast is half made to order and half buffet. This actually works great. Their breakfasts certainly set you up for the day.I'll be back!

Had such a lovely stay at Alamo guest house. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The room one was of the best Iv stayed in, very comfortable bed and the large bath in the room was amazing! Breakfast did not disappoint, even though we were a little late for ours having been out the night before we were still able to enjoy a full breakfast and were not rushed. Any time we are back in Glasgow to stay it will definitely be at The Alamo Guest House!
Reviewer: Mrs. C | Sun 4th Dec 2016 | 7 years ago
It was (again) a very lovely stay at Alamo! Comfortable and clean rooms, nicely furnished and very caring staff. I can only recommend to stay here when visiting Glasgow - you wont have such a beautiful view from the breakfast room on to the University tower and Kelvingrove Park anywhere else! By the way, the breakfast is very delicious as well!

This was our first time staying at The Alamo & certainly won't be our last. Beautifully warming Guest House full of character in a fantastic part of the West End. Lots of amazing Restaurants on your doorstep. Nothing was too much trouble, even we arrived for breakfast & there was no hot food left (think we possibly missed the breakfast window �) it wasn't a problem to have whatever we wanted rustled up. Definitely our new "to go place". Thanks so much for your hospitality. Roy & Brenda

On first blush, we felt the property was a little rustic.However the room was very nice and the proprietors very warm and helpful.The location was a great compromise to see the different areas of Glasgow; steps away from the University of Glasgow.Breakfast was very nice with eggs to order if desired.We needed to leave before breakfast on our day of departure and cereals, yogurts and juices were available.
Reviewer: Mr. L | Thu 24th Nov 2016 | 7 years ago
What a lovely guest house in the West End! A beautiful old building with a touch of luxury. The room was sumptuous, being large, immaculately furnished and very easy to spend time in on a cold Glasgow weekend. The breakfast room was again very tastefully decorated. Breakfast was great with a choice of healthy and indulgent options. The staff were always on hand and very friendly and helpful. Location is great - near to the attractions of the West End but also easy to get into the city centre by bus, taxi or a 20 minute walk. A very, very pleasant weekend was had in the Alamo. Well recommended.

An excellent choice of breakfast foods set us up to discover the gorgeous area and wealth of the many nearby attractions - a perfect location. Thankyou for your hospitality and we will certainly return to this lovely city and people.
Reviewer: Mr. C | Sat 5th Nov 2016 | 7 years ago
The Alamo has for some years now been my guest house of choice in Glasgow. It has a wonderful mixture of comfortable luxury and a lovely and convenient location, truly a place one is always disappointed to find full. It has a loyal following and attracts many visitors from all over Europe and the US and no doubt beyond, guessing by the languages and accents I hear in the beautiful dining room in the morning. You won't want for entertainment technology here, if you want it, nor will you suffer if, like me, you come under the heading TROGLODYTE. There is a lovely relaxed and friendly atmosphere that greets you and continues throughout your stay. And what a fine location, with a wonderful view over the park and tennis courts to the wonderful Kelvingrove Museum, the Universitynof Glasgow's magnificent sepulchre looming above the trees up on its hill and within 5 minutes walk a veritable host now of interesting and good restaurants and bars. I am a frequenter of Sisters and more recently Rioja, a lovely Spanish/Catalan tapas restaurant. All are one block away in or just off Argyle St. Quietly situated off Sauciehall St, down Gray St, looking across the park, where you can always find parking if you have a car, this is one gem of a place in the midst of the great city. One to keep. You'll find it's one you'll always head back to.

The Alamo is a wonderful place to stay in Glasgow: let's start with location: a quiet street between Kelvingrove Park/Art Museum and Finnieston, with its fabulous restaurant and bar scene. Next, the lovely interiors, with rich colors and lovely low lighting. In the rooms themselves: super comfortable beds and en suite facilities, excellent breakfast, and helpful, kind hosts and staff. We will be back! Thanks for making our stay in Glasgow so memorable.
Reviewer: Ms. S | Sun 16th Oct 2016 | 7 years ago
The owners have done a lovely job renovating the property. They were very nice and friendly, eager to help anyway they could. The breakfast buffet was nice and they offered to cook you something special if you didn't see what you liked on the buffet. When we booked I didn't realize the bathroom was not in the room, though it did have a nice sink. Still for the price it was a lovely Bed & Breakfast!
Reviewer: Mrs. P | Sat 15th Oct 2016 | 7 years ago
It was a pleasure to stay at the Alamo again. We stayed in one of their newly renovated rooms (room 10).

My husband, best friend, and I stayed at the Alamo Guest House for three nights and had the best time! We didn't get to stay in the hotel very much because we had a lot booked, but the staff couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. We stayed in two different rooms, Number 4 and Number 12, and both were lovely. Everything was very clean and well kept. The first two mornings we missed breakfast due to our early tours, but my husband and I stopped on our way out Saturday and everything was delicious. We definitely want to come back to Glasgow and stay for a longer visit!

Straight away I felt at home in the Alamo Guest House. Emma welcomed me by name along with two of her sweet children. Her husband carried my rather heavy bags and, after given a quick tour of the dining room & bathroom facilities, I was promptly shown to my room. Very friendly staff and a warm welcome put me at ease in a new city where I will be living for the year to carry out studies. I HIGHLY recommend this establishment for those wishing to have a relaxing moment in a charming setting in the heart of Glasgow.

If I return to Glasgow I will most definitely stay here again.

Great location: public transportation apparently easy but we happily walked everywhere we wanted to go (only 1/2 hour to amble downtown) So wonderful to be on a huge green space and right in the restaurant district.Great room: we stayed in room 1, on the main floor right beside the breakfast room. You might think this would be noisy, but it was extremely quiet...we were always surprised when we went to breakfast and found people already there! The plaster ceilings in our room and in the breakfast room are superb (gorgeously painted by the owner Steve.)Great service: lovely breakfasts with everything but the meats and scrambled eggs made to order. Potato scones highly recommended...not like an English scone, more like a cross between and potato pancake and a green onion pancake. Delicious!

Outstanding service and room.Outstanding breakfast with optional sides such as mushrooms.Very close to sites such as museums that you can walk to.We stayed in room 5, which is luxury room, and it felt like a hotel of luxury--my daughter, who traveled with me, refused to leave the room and see any sites, it was so amazing.The staff work hard to make your stay comfortable, and it was.As a single mother working there with a child, it was easy thanks to this place, that allowed us to check out late and bring food down to my daughter who was still sleeping when I left for work.Excellent and highly recommended.A great blend of old style charm, intimacy, and nouveau touches like lights circling our bath tub.Thanks much Steve and Ana for making our stay so special.My daughter didn't want to leave.We will return.

The location is great! Close to the University, the Kelvingrove Park and a lot of nice bars and restaurants, many of the sights can be visited within walking distance; even the shopping area can be reached within a 30 min nice walk. It is wonderful coming home to a very quiet place after an exhausting day. The hosts have created an atmosphere to make you feel like being at home.
Reviewer: Mr. B | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | 7 years ago
The most welcoming, attentive, comfortable and quiet Guest House imaginable; close to the centre of Glasgow but blessed by the greenery and tranquility of the Kelvingrove Park. Beautifully decorated to preserve its heritage and adorned to thehighest standard. Even the breakfast puts others to shame.

The Alamo is a great place from which to explore Glasgow. The room we had was designer heaven with every wish catered for. The hosts could not do enough for us. Breakfast will set you up for the day and is served in a room with what must be one of the city's most ornate ceilings. Would not hesitate to recommend.

We had a family reunion in Glasgow & booked 3 rooms for the May Bank holiday. The house is beautifully situated directly on Kelvingrove Park. It has been beautifully restored & all the rooms are elegant, comfortable & unique. Breakfast in the dining room was convivial, relaxed & made to suit our needs. the coffee was excellent too. But it was the people who own & run the hotel that made our stay so enjoyable & memorable. Emma & Simon shared their local knowledge, gave us maps, vouchers for the hop on hop off bus, and tea in the dining room when we returned after a long day. On the last day of our stay, after I had checked out, my flight to Amsterdam was cancelled. Emma gave me access to her lap top & dining room so that I could make the necessary arrangements. But more importantly she was supportive & gave me tips on where to eat locally & less obvious places to visit. We will definitely return to Glasgow & book well in advance to ensure we can stay at the Alamo Guest House

Stayed here whilst visiting my daughter at university, it is a treasure of a place. Lovely accommodation with a lot of character.Nothing was too much trouble, a very friendly guest house. The room had just been refurbished literally the week before, so had a couple of teething troubles, but Steve went out of his way to ensure these were never an issue and dealt with them very efficiently and quickly. I do not hesitate to recommend the Alamo and think it will now be my regular haunt whilst my daughter remains at uni. Thank you for your hospitality.

I first stayed at the Alamo Guest House in 2011 and after a wonderful stay vowed to stay again on my next trip to Glasgow. Inexcusably it's taken me 5 years to visit Glasgow again, but the Alamo, I'm relieved to say, is still wonderful.The house is an absolutely stunning Victorian house, in a fantastic and beautiful location. Steve and Emma are really friendly and welcoming, and clearly have a love affair with this beautiful house. The decor throughout is extremely stylish, sensitive to the building's age, tasteful but characterful.The bed was incredibly comfortable and bathroom lovely with a lovely stone sink. There is everything one could need in the room (tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryer, towels, wifi, tv, dvd player, and toiletries provided - shampoo, conditioner and shower gel).Breakfast options are plentiful (tea, coffee, juices, fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereals, toast, muesli and cooked items of your choosing). Eating breakfast in the beautiful breakfast room is a real treat, and the art by Ian Gray, mainly of Islay, in this room is also fabulous.And although I didn't have the opportunity to sample any this time, the guest house is a few minutes walk from lovely bars and restaurants on Argyle and Sauchiehall streets.Will definitely return...I just hope it doesn't take me another 5 years to do so.

Even got to catch up with Flash again (the resident cat, now a bit more sedentary, poor lad)!

Being a Scandinavian I'm very picky with cleanliness, attention to detail & a good atmosphere. I've stayed in places in the past where I didn't even have a shower as it didn't feel safe for hygiene reasons. The bathroom was cleaner than many restaurant kitchens I've been in.Having had a very busy couple of months I made a stop here for the night on my way home & came home relaxed & energised.I had a very friendly & to the point welcome when arriving &, in their own words, "Nothing is too much trouble".Breakfast was a calm & healthy affair. They have something for everyone but less the grease & more the flavour you normally find in a British breakfast.Well worth the price & in a brilliant location.I'll definitely be back.

We didn't have ensuite facilities, but that didn't prove to be a problem as we had sole use of the bathroom.Breakfast was a plentiful buffet and served in a superb room- great start to the day.Our check out had to be extremely early due to train times, but again this proved no problem; we were given access to the breakfast room and kitchen area so that we could have something to eat before a long days travelling.

I had never stayed in such a beautiful and luxurious room. The service was excellent. The breakfast was good (maybe not as excellent as the room and the service, but very good anyway). The location of the hotel was perfect (close to the center, to the Kelvingrove gardens and museum and to a lot of restaurants) and the surroundings were peaceful. The quality-to-price ratio was wonderful. The only slightly negative issues were the absence of a free car park and the operation of the hot and cold water in the bathroom, which was too difficult.I'll be more than happy to recommend your hotel to anyone going to Glasgow.

The helpful owners have created a welcoming environment which is stylish, comfortable and relaxing. Lovely breakfasts. Normal size Simple shower gel and Alberto Balsam shampoo and conditioner was provided, but the hairdryer is not powerful enough if you require it for styling. The location is great, leafy and quiet, overlooking a park with free bowls and tennis facilities. Also handily placed for the first class, yet unstuffy, Kelvingrove museum (which is also free). Short walk to bus stop for Hop On Hop Off bus tours, which I thoroughly recommend for getting your bearings and packing in the many attractions that Glasgow has to offer. Plenty of places to eat and drink within walking distance. Do check out the owners recommendations on their website and factor in that you might need to stay longer than you think to do it all justice. Enjoy!

As a single female traveling through Scotland, I stayed in Glasgow for a few extra nights, and couldn't have been happier with my choice of the Alamo Guest House.The Guest House was situated on a quiet side street, which was much appreciated after long days of walking.My main focus while in Glasgow was art, and as the Alamo was a SHORT distance from Kelvingrove Art Museum, I was in heaven.The rooms were clean, Steve and Emma couldn't have been more helpful or accommodating, and breakfast was quite filling.I would have no problems recommending this place to anyone looking to stay in Glasgow, and if I find myself in Glasgow again, I know where I will be staying!

we were very pleased about our stay in Alamo Guesthouse. Very friendly welcome and excellent location to explore the city of glasgow
Reviewer: Mr. S | Wed 19th Aug 2015 | 8 years ago
The Alamo was very comfortable, quiet, and well-appointed. The heated tiles in the bathrooms were a nice touch. The rooms are cozy, tidy, and well provisioned. Excellent and varied breakfast options were a nice touch. The proprietors are most accommodating, including making provisions for an early breakfast the day of my departure. The location is convenient to the University, public transportation, and many cultural and gastronomic attractions. This was my second visit, and the establishment has only improved. Highly, highly recommended.

Situated in one of the nicest parts of Glasgow and just a short walk away from fantastic Museums, quirky Shops, Pubs and Restaurants, we found the Alamo Guest House a perfect place to stay. Not least because of the great hospitality of the welcoming and friendly owners and the wonderful atmosphere in the lovingly refurbished rooms.

we were so impressed, only wish we could have stayed longer! Steve was so helpful, with vouchers for parking & being understanding of a later arrival because of car problems. The rooms were very clean & breakfast room beautiful & Emma so willing to add other items to breakfast if requested. Hoping to return!

This guest house was wonderful in every regard. The owners and staff were professional and welcoming, the premises were meticulously clean and tidy, and the breakfast delicious. I especially enjoyed meeting Flash, the host cat! I enjoyed my stay there completely, and hated to have to leave. I hope to have a chance to return to Glasgow, and when I do, I'll certainly choose the Alamo for my stay.

stayed here either 3 or 4 times in the last 2 years whilst our son has been working in glasgow.remembered us from last time and agreed to let us stay for 2 nights and not the usual 3 stated - presumably for loyalty.very helpful, friendly , good range at breakfast,not too big.main disadvantage is not ensuite for us but can be overcome if know in advance.hope to return if we visit without son as a reason. e.g celtic connections as this was a first this year and has been on our 'must do' list for ages.Sue and Pete.

This charming hotel is almost next door to Kelvingrove Museum & Art Gallery and Glasgow University and a pleasant walk to other top sites. Good Indian restaurants and a brew pub in the neighbourhood as well. We booked well in advance for 3 nights and were given a very small room; fortunately the weather was great so we spent very little time in it. Drinking water in our room was the worst we tasted in the U.K.- if we were to visit again we would request bottled drinking water.

The staff were friendly and accommodating. The building had lots of character and the location for the university was excellent - just a quick walk through the park. The standard twin room I stayed in was basic but clean. The shared bathroom facilities were clean and I didn't have to queue for them. The breakfast was really superb, great selection and good quality sausages. The only real notable negative was that when the occupant of the next room spoke on the telephone, you could clearly hear everything he said but I suppose that kind of thing is to be expected in an older building. Would recommend but would pay for ensuite next time.

We travelled from Canada to Scotland for a short trip to visit family for the first time.Our 6 month old did not handle the time change well, which meant the night we arrived in Scotland and stayed at this beautiful location, our daughter was screaming until 2 am.Much to our (and the other guests) appreciation, the room we booked (Room 12) was fully sound proofed which allowed the other guests to sleep undisturbed.This room is stunning, with a large soaker tub as center piece, a WC enclosed on one side, and a beautifully done shower on the other side.Along with the large bed and very high ceiling, there is a comfortable sitting area, and plenty of light from the tall windows.The buffet breakfast was delicious, the service was quite prompt and friendly.The next time we return we will be sure to stay here again!

Myself and a couple of friends spent a great weekend early in June at the lovely listed building known as the Alamo Guest House.Everything was wonderful - the accommodation comfortable and beautifully decorated with a really homely feel - the location was brilliant and so handy for the Kelvingrove area and the city centre. And our hosts, Steve the owner and Victoria were so friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and we all felt very welcome and very much at home. We would not hesitate to stay at the Alamo again if visiting Glasgow!

Quiet side street facing across the park and tennis courts to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.Easy 10 minute stroll to the SECC and Hydro.Outstanding restaurants within easy reach. Spotlessly clean and comfortable, very glamorous room 2 had no en-suite but had almost exclusive use of the ground floor bathroom. Breakfast amazing, everything fresh and loads of choice. Victoria, Steve and Emma gave me a very warm welcome and were always friendly and helpful. Intend coming back to Glasgow and will certainly stay at the Alamo.

We enjoyed a sunny few days in Glasgow's sophisticated west end at Alamo guesthouse. The welcome was friendly, and our room was spacious with a delightful window seat. The breakfast was plentiful. Its great location was the best part, close to the green of Kelvingrove and fantastic dining of the west end.
Reviewer: Mrs. C | Sun 14th Jun 2015 | 8 years ago
The website doesn't do justice to this brilliant little Guest House. We couldn't believe our luck when the taxi pulled up right opposite an entrance to Kelvingrove Park. As you sit in the dining room, visitors can watch games of tennis in the courts opposite. The overall feel is one of comfortably homely luxury. Staff feel like family. We didn't want to leave.

This is the second time I have stayed here, first by myself and then with my daughter. Both rooms I had were lovely, the atmosphere is really relaxed and friendly.

This is my number 1 crash pad if I am stuck for somewhere to stay on a night out!
Reviewer: Miss. S | Fri 12th Jun 2015 | 8 years ago
There was a warm welcome on arrival.The room was lovely.We were advise that the rooms we booked were not ensuite. This did not prove a problem and the price charged reflected the fact.Breakfast was excellent. There are plenty of places to eat nearby.One small thing to improve it would be a well lit mirror in the room. (we stayed in 4 guest houses during our holiday and this applied in them all! Ladies of a certain age need to see to put on their makeup)

The Alamo house is all it was advertised to be. Comfortable room, pleasant and helpful manager, and hardworking owners. Breakfasts were varied and of excellent quality. The location near the University and gardens made it a convenient spot to start our touring of Glasgow and the surrounding area. On the street parking was also easy and close by.

Lovely location, although i enjoyed the breakfast my husband was disappointed with the selection of cooked items available he would have liked to have seen tomatoes, or black pudding and mushrooms. we stayed in room 1 , the room was lovely the only small issue was that the en-suite was added into the room at a later date and spoiled the ambience of the room. Service was good and would stay there again.
Response
Dear Pauline,Thank you for the lovely review :o)Sorry that my wife and I were not around to meet you during your stay, but I\'m sure Victoria would have explained we were at my Little Sisters Wedding and my mothers 70th birthday celebrations.We are also sorry to hear that your husband was disapointed with the selection of cooked items on offer:Sausages, Bacon & Scrabbled Egg (Freshly topped up throughout breakfast withing the Chaffing Dishes)Cooked to Order (which you should have been offered? Which you can add to from the Chaffing Dishes) -Eggs (Fried, Poached, Boiled)Potato SconesHash BrownsBeans& Tomatoes (grilled)The list of what we provide for breakfast is on our website as well as refered to on the Additional Info./ T&C\'s which would have been attached to your booking confirmation, as well as in the welcome pack in your room. We do ask guests to request additional produce they would like, prior to arrival, that is not listed on our breakfast, so that we can buy these products and provide anything (within reason), so that guests individual requirements are attended to.We are very happy that you would still stay here again and look forward to meeting you and satisfying your husband\'s breakfast needs :)Kind regardsEmma & Steve (owners)

I've lived in the Highlands for 25 years and Glasgow to me was an occasional airport and that was about it. Then, a new friend was walking the West Highland Way and suggested we meet up to see them off. She had spent 15 years living in Glasgow many years ago and suggested we stay at The Alamo. 'Everything about it is perfect apart from the name'.So this wasmy chance to 'get' Glasgow and I moved in for three days. Better than perfect thanks both the ambiance and the lovely staff. Vicki (y?) was just smashing. I came in fancy car but concerns about parking and security were unjustified and I found places easily outside the door.I was allowed to peep into the room my friends had chosen. Wow! That was really nice and different and when I come back with Janet we will definitely be staying in that one (and no! I won't tell you which one 'cos that's mine and it might get booked up!).I am back on Wednesday for a fleeting return.I can say that I now get Glasgow, it is lovely, and the where to stay.Actually the name is cool too. You'll never forget it.Chris Mair

My wife and I stayed at the Alamo for 3 nights in late September. The guest house is a beautiful restored Victorian located on a quiet street in Glasgow’s ‘West End’ near the Kelvingrove Museum & Art Gallery, MacKintosh House, and Glasgow University. Within easy walking distance are a number of fine restaurants, pubs, & bus stops. The city centre is a short 15 min walk. For those with a vehicle, convenient street parking is available alongside Kelvingrove Park, directly across from the house. A visitor parking permit was available to lessen the cost. Our host, Steve, was extremely friendly and welcoming and made excellent suggestions on dining, transportation, and touring options. The room itself was downstairs (below street level) with a view of the garden. It was attractively decorated and quite comfortable. Both room and ensuite bath were very clean. Very quiet for our entire stay. Breakfast was served buffet-style (nice selections) in the beautiful dining room overlooking Kelvingrove park. We hope to visit Glasgow in the future and will return to the Alamo. Highly recommended.

Can't wait for our next stay, we are already missing the view over the park to the Kelvin Grove Museum and the beautiful old University buildingsA wonderful area of Glasgow.

We recently stayed at the Alamo Guest House and loved it. There were three of us (my wife and I along with our adult daughter), and we stayed in Room 4. It was perfect for us - comfortable and luxurious, with plenty of space. The home was beautifully decorated for Christmas. Our hosts were friendly and helpful, the location is terrific, and the breakfasts were excellent. There is convenient and cheap parking, and the free wifi worked great. There are lots of very good restaurants within easy walking distance. All in all, we couldn't have hoped for anything better, and I highly recommend the Alamo.

Lovely old Glasgow residence. Remarkably quiet on the edge of the park. Warm and cosy with friendly owners but we all know Flash the cat runs the place! Breakfast was very nice and thoroughly enjoyed the porridge and honey. Cyclist friendly guest house on quiet back streets.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at the Alamo, from the warm welcome when we arrived to the tastiest breakfast to see us on our way home. Location was also a major plus for us as we were going to the Hydro for a show. This family run guest house is the best B+B we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in many throughout Europe.Tasefully furnished and decorated the work carried out by the owners has put this place in a league of their own, quality and comfort at a really good price. Unusual in todays world of greed, well done folks and thank you

Access to Kelvingrove Park, with all its walking pats, a huge plus for us.

Would highly recommend it to anyone and will for sure be returning

We stayed at this lovely Guest House, situated in a quiet street, for two nights, in a most beautiful ensuite room. Yet, within a couple of minutes walk, we were enjoying the buzz of a great city. The world-famous Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum was on our doorstep, other lovely places to visit within walking distance, various bus stops only a few minutes away and some great restaurants and pubs to choose from...so near. Steve and his staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them. Breakfast was tasty and delicious too. We felt very relaxed and comfortable and appreciated the style of the house with combined historical detail with modern enhancements. We can't recommend this Guest House too highly. What a find. We will return.

Wow, what can I say about our wonderful stay at the Alamo Guest House?

I booked this guest house for my grandparents for one nights stay last minute. When we arrived we were greeted by Victoria, a masters student who helped run the house. She was more than welcoming and a real pleasure to chat to over the course of the afternoon/evening, offering cups of tea, booking taxis, recommending places to eat and even lending us her umbrella. Of course we were introduced to Flash, a cat that was part of the family, he was lovely and gave is such a homely feel. The room was a delight, big in size, lovely ensuite, comfortable bed and warm in temperature. Breakfast was delious with a huge variety of choice. A pure treat to stay here and will undoubtably be recommending to all friends and relatives to be staying here. Thank you, will be back soon! Xx

We had a very lovely stay at Alamo.Our room was very nice and the breakfast was excellent.We only have one negative comment.Our room was described as having a private bathroom next door to our room.However, it was anything but private.A number of times, we experienced "reminders" that others were also using the bathroom.If it is public, it should be described as such in the room brochure and upon check in.

The Alamo is an excellent base to stay while visiting Glasgow. The building is beautiful. The new concert venues are walkable, as are the University area and the cafes and restaurants in Byres Road.

The Alamo is just one of the best places you could hope to stay in Glasgow. The location is perfect - close enough to attractions such as the Kelvingrove Museum and the West End, yet quiet and peaceful with Kelvingrove Park just next door to ensure a relaxing stay. Steve and Emma are fantastic hosts, ensuring that every aspect of your stay is smooth and any issues that crop up (such as guest itinerary changes) are immediately resolved. They have worked hard to restore the Victorian charm of the Alamo Guest House and the newly restored dining room especially is a pleasure to enjoy your breakfast in. Highly recommended.

I only wish we'd discovered the Alamo on earlier trips to Glasgow: the location was exceptional facing Kelvingrove Park and walking distance to great pubs and restaurants, the hosts are exceptional, and the rooms so very comfortable, this really felt like a home away from home. For a couple's treat, the luxury suite must be experienced to be believe, simply superb!

Wonderful Victorian style house, friendly owner just like a neighbour, we stay here for 2 nights, close to the University, nice walk nearby.

We knew we would enjoy the Alamo from the moment we crossed the threshold. We were made very welcome and our room was comfortable and tastefully decorated. The shower-room was well-equipped -if a tad on the small side. Breakfasts were delicious but service was a bit manic as there were so few staff and the owners wished to be as courteous and affable as possible to each guest.

The hotel is in a Victorian building which has been restored to its full glory with a lot of attention to detail, and has a lot of characger. The rooms don't have en suite bathrooms, but there is a sufficient number of shared bathrooms (modern, very clean, good showers) so that was never a problem. The owners and staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly, e.g. they provide cutlery and and plates if you want touse the breakfast room to eat a takeaway dinner.

Even though the bed had been made up as a double because I got in a muddle when booking, they kindly saved my daughter from having to sleep with her wriggly mother by changing the bed into beds while we were out, thank you again for that! After a comfy quiet night we had a delicious relaxed breakfast before leaving our bags at the Alamo whilst we went wandering and coming back to a taxi booked by Steve to get us to the airport on time. A lovely atmosphere and kind and caring hosts, if we are back in Glasgow we will be back at the Alamo.

The Alamo is a really comfortable, clean, quiet, warm, attractive and just generally great B&B in the West End of Glasgow.

Steve and Emma have done a great job with refurbing the place.

We booked Room 2 as a graduation treat (3 nights) and it was worth every penny. The hotel itself has been restored beautifully, the staff were very helpful and friendly, and the breakfasts worth every bite. The proximity to Glasgow University, restaurants and the park make it an ideal place to stay. The bathroom was also always amazing! A double size, sink into the floor circular tub, with wifi connection. I had a long bubble bath every night while watching Netflix. Perfect day to a day. I would recommend staying at the B&B again. The old hotel cat also added a certain amount of charm. The only thing missing was a bowl of sweeties by the front door :)

As a background, my wife and I spent two weeks traveling in Ireland and Scotland spending nearly every night in a B & B.The basics.The room and bathroom were immaculately clean.The bed was very comfortable.The breakfast was good with a nice assortment of fresh fruits,cereal, eggs, croissants, and anything cooked from the kitchenFrom the moment you walk in, it is clear that the owners have invested their lives and love into making this property more than an ordinary B&B.This old house has been lovingly restored to its 100 year plus grandeur.Strong proponents of greater Glasgow, they have great advice on, bars, restaurants, sites to see, and maps with directions of how to get there.The sitting room is warm and comfortable with a great view out onto the park next door.A wee nip of Steve’s collection of single malts was a fine end to a busy day of being a tourist.Barry and Kathleen Wilson

Having said that the shower we did use was the best I have ever been in - only wish I had something similar at home! Breakfasts were also excellent. I would say the restaurants in the area are rather pricey - it is a pity you couldn't get something a little more like a snack. But the welcome you gave us was also really marvelous - I would stay again.

The staff was most helpful and accomodating.As we made our plans late and to have an en-suite accomodation, we had to book the biggest and most expense room.It was very nice but had way too many lights & switches.The fancy modern bath accouterments which looked like fun just didn't work well in practice. Hopefully they can add more en-suites in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay in alamo guest house, the room was lovely and cosy and quiet. The family was very nice and outgoing, offered us a big dvd collection as well as insider tipps of restaurants close to the guest house, breakfast was perfect, really would recommend a stay here, also because its close to kensington park with university and art gallery and in west end where you can find nice bars and restaurants, only short bus drive to city center, bus very close, good connection

very high standards of beauty, service, care and friendliness down to the smallest detail. I stayed in various hotels over the last months, but this is only one I can wholeheartedly recommend. The single rooms are inviting to actually spend time in, the dining room is beautiful, the breakfast is fabulous and healthy (local free range eggs for example) - and other caring details which make all the difference. The team really goes the extra mile to make you feel welcome. Very open for children.

Alamo Guest House is such a beautiful and quiet place to stay. Much more personable than your standard hotel, the staff here is very attentive to your every need and request. A very delicious home cooked breakfast is served buffet style in the mornings. You'll never run short of things to do in the area - all within reasonable walking distance. Even if your room is not an en-suite, the shared facilities are always kept clean and available. I never had a problem even when the house was fully booked. Gorgeous views of the park, University, and Kelvingrove museum. I will most definitely be returning here and sending my friends and family! Such a delightful experience!

The quality of the decor at the Alamo is very high and visually pleasing, which makes it a pleasure to be there. The staff are relaxed and friendly and I love the old cat who lives in the hall. The breakfast is good, although I would prefer coffee served in individual cafetieres - that is my only quibble.

Terrific stay at Alamo Guest House.Gorgeous location looking out over a quiet corner of Kelvingrove Park, near Museums and a variety of great West End restaurants.Free public Tennis Courts right across the street, and they lend racquets for free(!). Glad we stayed in West End vs Downtown, easily accessible by a short cab (cabs are cheap in Glasgow) or moderate walk.Steve, the owner, was a great help and constant presence.I chose a quiet room (#7) which was handsome and clean and quiet and had a shared modern bath but I never passed anyone in the halls even though the place was full.My friend stayed in Room #10, which has private bath but is right off the dining room and the sound does carry in the morning, so I am glad I saved the money on the room with shared bath.Highly recommended.

Do not be put off by the very reasonable price; this is an excellent small hotel with the quality and services normally expected in a large and pricey one.

Excellent value, very comfortable and clean and full of charm.Situated in one of the area's beautiful terraced houses on a quiet, paved street facing the park, it has a lovely atmosphere (run by a young family) and with a beautiful front room to relax, eat in or have a full and hearty breakfast.The location couldn't be better - in the heart of Glasgow's vibrant and stylish West End, right near the University, Kelvingrove, and some of the city's best restaurants and cafés. We've been several times now and always go back when we go to Glasgow.

We had the pleasure of staying at the Alamo Hotel recently and were treated with exceptional kindness and respect. The rooms are beautifully furnished and we felt like we were Royalty for the duration of our short 2 night stay. There was plenty of choice for breakfast and as much as you can manage and as they claim themselves 'nothing is too much trouble'The location of the hotel could not be better with plenty of eating establishments and museums close to hand. Parking could not have been more convenient just outside the Hotel for a nominal daily charge.I hope one day I get the opportunityto stay at the Alamo again in the future.

The view from our sumptious room was out onto Kelvingrove park with the Museum and Art Gallery beyond and Glasgow Uiversity on the hill to the right. Well placed for Restaurants and about 10 mins walk from the Hydro it really is an excellent place from where to explore Glasgow while having a great place to come back to after a day on the town. The host Steve and his wife were exceptionally helpful and pleasant people that really made you feel welcome and at home. The breakfast room is beautifully decorated and hosts a collection of paintings from the artist Ian Gray (who we met buy chance one morning over breakfast). It's not to be missed and we shall certainly return.

I was very happy with my four night stay.Alamo is quiet andhomey.The Victorian building is beautiful and has been lovingly restored.Steve and Emma are friendly and helpful.My stay was during a less busy time and they upgraded me to a larger unoccupied room free of charge.Room 10 in the lower ground was cheerful and comfortable with a large flat screen, high def TV and a DVD player.There are over 400 DVDs available for use free of charge.The shared facilities were very clean.Breakfasts are made to order and the cage free eggs are from a nearby farm.I was visiting my daughter who attends the University of Glasgow.Alamo is a five minute walk from her student housing on Kelvinhaugh Street. It felt safe to walk at night.Alamo is right next to Kelvingrove Park, a good place for walkers and joggers.It has a nice playground with a skateboard section for older kids. In addition to the restaurants suggested by Alamo, The 78 pub sells vegan food and is a five minute walk from Alamo as is a Thai restaurant. The Sainsbury Local next to The 78 sells soy milk and tofu.Roots and Fruits sells organic fruits and vegetables, nice breads and prepared vegetarian foods.It is less than a ten minute walk away.I would stay at Alamo again and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who prefers a charming, quiet place.

Having stayed at the Alamo previously, I knew we were in for a treat. All of the rooms are well appointed with comfortable beds, period furniture and a modern TV and Blu-ray combination. There is an extensive library of films to choose from on DVD and Blu-ray (for those occasionss when it has to be total relaxation). The owners are very friendly and professional with a wealth of local knowledge if needed. This is an ideal place to stay for concerts at the SECC/Armadillo/Hydro as it's only a 10 minute walk away. Already looking forward to the next stay. Why not have a little luxury as opposed to faceless chain hotels?

The common areas and accommodation of this Victorian town house have been beautifully restored and tastefully furnished with antiques. It's comfortable, clean and convenient. The breakfast, which is also excellent, is served in a beautiful room with stunning views of Kelvingrove park. It's easy to visit the city centre but in my opinion Glasgow's most adventurous restaurants and bars are to be found only a few minutes walk away on Argyle Street. I know Glasgow well and have stayed at many different guest houses and hotels there over the years. I have come to the conclusion that the Alamo is my first choice whether I'm travelling alone on business or holidaying with my family.

My girlfriend and I often stay in small guest houses and hotels in Glasgow and Edinburgh, mainly so we can go shopping, have a meal or go to the cinema, and not have to worry about travelling afterwards.This is the first time we stayed in the Alamo, we had seen it advertised before, but somehow over looked it.I am not exaggerating when I say this will now be our first choice for accommodation when staying over in Glasgow, in fact I will go as far to say that our choice of date to stay over in Glasgow will now be dependant on room availability at this guest house.First of all I made an error in my on-line booking with a well known 'last minute' agent, I called Steve at the Alamo to discuss, fearing that my booking would be unchangeable or cost me a deposit...Steve in fact rebooked me in a alternative room and advised me in detail what to do in future.Our room was beautiful, a perfect mix of antique style with all modern touches: large flat screen,digital shower, WiFi etc.The cleanliness and condition of the room was perfect, so much so that I booked a second night almost straight away. Steve kindly moved us to room 3, with its super king size bed...which was even better than room 11.The breakfast was varied and fresh - laid out nicely and the staff were very attentive to service.The décor throughout the house was beautiful, and for my girlfriend and I the finishing touch was the presence of the guest house cat, Flash.I love the west end, and this guest house is situated in the heart of it...but just tucked away enough to be free of traffic noise.I can see why Steve and his family take great pride and care in their guest house, it has a real personal feel, and is quite unique. I joked with Steve when I was leaving that I may not leave a review, as not to advertise this little gem of a hotel too much! but really this is the best 3* hotel I have ever stayed in, either in the UK or abroad.Thank you Steve and family.Best wishes, Stewart and Libby.

Alamo has a great location in Glasgow, a quiet street with parking, but close to Kelvingrove and a longish but doable walk into the city.It's also a lovely old house with super-friendly and welcoming owners.You couldn't wish for better.Remember to ask why it's called Alamo.

The Alamo is a lovely guest house full of character, we were greeted by a very helpful young lady who went out of her way to help and recommended places to eat. The room was clean and comftable, we did have a shared bathroom but as all the rooms on our floor had their own we were the only ones who used it.The location of the hotel was about 25mins walk from town (I am a slow walker) but there were plenty of bars and restaurants 2 minute walk away.Plenty of selection at breakfast. Would defo recommend.

The guest house is a welcome change to the usual charmless hotels that most of us stay in nowadays. It has character and a warmth that is natural no manufactured.Room was lovely and the satff are incredibly welcoming, they are literally welcoming you into their own home.Lovely area and breakfast was excellent.Thoroughly recommended.

We stayed for one night only and wished we could have stayed longer!Excellent parking, very welcoming hosts, very comfortable room (we were in room 12), wonderful breakfast.An easy 20 minute walk to the new SSE Hydro.We will definitely choose to stay here again when we next need to overnight in Glasgow.Far better value than any of the hotels, and it is in a very quiet area with easy access to art gallery, museums, concert venues and there are lots of excellent restaurants close by.The only issue (and I'm sorry I forgot to mention it at the time) was that I couldn't find a mirror near a power socket, so using the hairdrier was a bit tricky!
