This is a small hotel with a lot of style. The choice of music at breakfast, the quality of the croissants, the lighting and interior design are all very carefully chosen by people with excellent taste. The hosts are lovely - knowledgeable and helpful - and will engage with you to whatever extent you wish. The view over the park at breakfast is magic, and we took a bottle of wine and some cheese into the dining room one evening to enjoy it lit up by night. It is close to wonderful museums and great restaurants. We will go back as soon as we can.

We were in Great Britian for 3 weeks and this was the best place we stayed! It is beautiful, from the front step to the lobby, to the breakfast room, to our room in the basement (which is really only a half basement - has full sized windows with lots of light). The owners were very friendly and helpful - their toddler was adorable - and the cat was a special treat since we had gone 3 weeks without seeing our own dogs and cats. The room really was gorgous and comfortable - and the bathroom was a treat with a double headed shower. Each room has a flat screen TV and you can get DVDs from the owners. Since this was the end of a very long, full trip, we appreciated the opportunity to wind down in front of a good movie. The location at first seemed somewhat removed, however, the neighborhood is actually a great area - with several restaraunts, pubs, coffe shops, etc. There were some options for music in the evenings - and the Kelvingrove gallary is just a block away. This really was a great "home away from home"!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Alamo. The entrance hall is very grand and we were given a choice of rooms as we were early - we chose the one in the basement because it had been done up in period style. We loved the furniture in the room. The bathroom had obviously been recently refurbished, and was lovely.

The location is fantastic, with a view of the Art Gallery.

The only downside, as a recent poster mentioned, was the lack of cooked breakfast (except scrambled egg). That doesn't bother me as I'm a veggie and always opt for cereal, but my husband was looking forward to lorne sausage etc!

Overall, the building was lovely, the bed was extremely comfortable, the host was very friendly, and cat-lovers (like me) will love Flash. I would definitely go back.

Stayed here for a couple of nights in late Dec with my elderly mother. Steve was an excellent host and was so very helpful to her needs that she stayed another night in Jan as well. The rooms were lovely with great showers and elegant period furniture. The location is superb with restaurants etc close by yet looking over a lovely park. The breakfast was more than enough with the choice of one hot dish of scrambled eggs and loads of other healthy choices to fill up on. Couldn't fault the place, and loved the cat!
