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 of the street and the welcome birdsong gave the impression of 'rus in urbe' while numerous restaurants and nightlife are within walking distance. It is the perfect place to revive oneself after a hectic day's shopping before going out again at night.
Our room was very bright and comfortable and furnished with gorgeous antiques. The beds are of a very high quality and I did not want to leave it in the morning!! The bathroom is modern and well equipped with an excellent shower... good pressure and lots of hot water. The breakfast room overlooks the leafy Kelvingrove Park and my attention was divided between this view and the magnificent ceiling which is truly a work of art. Again attention to detail is evident in the healthy breakfast where fresh fruit is a big feature. The surroundings are superb and one can experience the atmosphere of Glasgow of a bygone era. However, the most commendable aspect of this guesthouse is the staff/owners. Steve and Emma made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. They are so thoughtful, kind and obliging. We will definitely return to the Alamo.

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 gorgeous, with a huge four-poster bed, lovely en-suite bathroom, and a huge flat-screen TV on the wall. We were invited to choose one or more DVDs from the extensive collection, and were given the use of the house laptop for the night.

Breakfast was very good-- the best part was gaping at the gorgeous dining room with its hand-painted ceiling. We were stunned to learn that Steve, the proprietor, did the painting himself.

I only wish we could have stayed longer to fully appreciate this guest house and the city.

What can I say? What a fantastic place! I chanced upon this piece of Paridise purely by a bit of "googling" chance....And what a brilliant time we had there.

The room was excellent, The service was brilliant. The food was fab and we had a really lovely time there! The hotel is stunning! Fantastic period features, beautifully maintained and Steve and Emma and Christine are charm personified! They made us so welcome and nothing was too much trouble....Thank you for that!
And what a bargain!

If you are ever lucky enough to visit Glasgow this is the place to stay. It's situated bang opposite Kelvingrove park , the museum is definitely worth a visit . As are the pubs! We met loads of interesting characters!!!

I think you may have gathered that I loved the place! I will definitely be returning here

Keep up the good work You're doing a grand job!

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 heating/cooling system, fabulous breakfast, optional whirlpool tub, use of their computer, friendly/intelligent hosts, fuzzy cat, cute kid, charming father-in-law all centrally located.. What more could one ask?
