The Alamo Guest House in Glasgow: Photos and Reviews

The Alamo Guest House is set within a 19th-century Victorian building that overlooks Kelvingrove Park. All rooms feature antique period furnishings, and most have ensuite bathrooms (the Shetland room has a private external bathroom). Guests can borrow from a curated collection of DVDs for in-room entertainment.

Guests receive a complementary breakfast with a diverse menu that includes made-to-order options like fresh fruit, pastries, and hot cooked breakfast. The dining room serves as a communal space where guests can interact, and a bottomless plate of local Tunnock's chocolates is available in the sitting room. Special diet menus are available upon request.

The guest house sits on a quiet street facing Kelvingrove Park, with tennis courts and a bowling green opposite. It is a 2-minute walk from Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, and near the University of Glasgow and Glasgow Botanic Gardens. Many restaurants and pubs on Sauchiehall and Argyle Streets are within walking distance.

The Alamo Guest House has an on-site spa offering various massage treatments, including back, foot, full body, hand, neck, and massages. The spa lounge/relaxation area provides a calming setting, and spa/wellness packages are available. Bicycle rental and walking tours can also be arranged from the property.

Owners Emma and Steve provide personalized service, and the staff is frequently noted for going above and beyond, including holding luggage before check-in. Board games and puzzles are available in the shared lounge/TV area. The hotel also offers express check-in/check-out and private check-in/check-out.
