I booked with Alba Lodge because I was led to believe that parking was provided. I subsequently found out that it wasn't provided and that there was on street parking if I was lucky. I cancelled my booking, but they are refusing to give me a refund or ven respond to my emails. Do not waste your money on this... More

We like the location a lot (walking distance to all you want to see in Glasgow). The host was great. The breakfast really good. The place is outdated and super SMALL. But quiet and a great place if you are spending most of your time out of the room.

Getting them to turn on the heat is an effort in futility, as they won't do it, and you WILL freeze. You just turn on your own heat and hope they feel generous that night/day. Had drunks checked into room beside me more than once, with paper thin walls it made sleeping impossible. I left more tired than when I... More

Booked this hotel since it was the cheapest one available and I was there for business. I was out for most of the day so it didn't really matter. However on one day when I had to stay indoors, I had to go ask the staff to switch on room-heating since they had switched it off (understandably-to save cost). Also,... More

Two nights accommodation with cooked breakfast for £75, for a single ensuite was a great find for this centrally located B&B. Staff friendly and helpful. They allowed me to store luggage for the day I was leaving so I could continue looking around Glasgow. Very clean budget hotel. Always a hot shower. About a ten minutes walk to George's Square....

Alba Lodge is the perfect place to stay if you're looking for a central location. Walking distance to the main square where you can also catch tours to the highlands (highly recommended) The room is very simple, but has a tv, clean bathroom, and a comfortable bed. Everything in the room was very clean, and the owners do take good... More

This was one of the cheapest B&Bs we could find in central Glasgow and it is minutes away from everything. We were greeted warmly throughout our 3 day stay as the reception is manned 24/7. This is a budget B&B so we weren't expecting much so were pleasantly surprised. The bathroom was clean and fairly modern, we had a tv,... More

We stayed at Alba Lodge at the end of a trip touring Scotland by train. Alba Lodge is well situated in the city centre near to the School of Art. It was the cheapest B&B that we stayed at on the trip and I think was good value for money. The room was clean and comfortable and there was a... More
