We went to Scotland for a wedding and used Glasgow as our home base. From the first email I sent to enquire about availability, until the moment we checked out (after 9 nights) the service was impeccable. Steve and Emma were helpful, patient, knowledgeable, friendly and hospitable during our entire stay. We had a ton of questions, as we had... more

Welcoming hosts. Near the park. 10 Minutes walking distance from the city centre, yet quiet. Hope they realize the plan to rent out guest house bikes as well. Then I'll start considering spending all my holidays here :) more

We just returned from a 4-night stay at the Alamo. Steve & Emma (& little Leon) were wonderful hosts. They were friendly, accommodating & knowledgeable about the city & suggested places to see & eat. We stayed in room #1, which had been recently remodeled. The room was very comfortable & clean. We had a large flat-screen TV and a... more

We arrived in Glasgow after a whirlwind tour of Scotland. Steve met us at the door and came and carried the bags in as we were unpacking. Steve gave us a tour of the house and showed us our very large very well appointed room. As stated by other visitors there is nice attention to detail. We had a great... more

My parent and I recently visited Glasgow for a long weekend and booked two rooms at the Alamo Guesthouse. The whole experience was memorable. The building is period yet modern, well appointed, spotless and very quiet. The family-run aspect to the staffing makes it private with a very warm welcome. The location is excellent, very suburban and leafy, with good... more

What can we add that hasn't already been said? The Alamo is a truly special place to stay. Steve and Emma and their staff are endlessly helpful and are able to make great recommendations about restaurants and activities in Glasgow. The location simply cannot be beat with Kelvingrove Park literally right outside the front door, and it's an easy 10-minute... more

We have just returned from having spent a memorable week-end in Glasgow thanks to the care and attention of the staff at the Alamo Guesthouse. The building itself is beautiful, very comfortable and has been lovingly restored with great attention to detail and historical accuracy. It is a haven of tranquillity in the heart of a bustling city. The quietness... more

My friend and I were booked into the Alamo for just one night en route to Edinburgh. We had a late arrival, nearly 10pm, and when I called to let them know, I was told no problem at all. When we arrived, we were thrilled to see this elegant Victorian-style house in a lovely section of Glasgow. Our room was... more

I owned and personally operated an Inn for 27 years and I can say that the Alamo is absolutely the best! They didn't miss a thing: Beautiful, tastefully decorated B&B featuring a clean, fresh room with no chemical cover-up deodorizers, comfortable bed with reading lights on either side, a place to put toiletries in the loo, windows that open, self-operated... more
