Alba Hostel Glasgow

I recently had the privilege of spending incredible time at ALBA hostel and I can honestly say it was an experience that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked through the doors, I knew I was in for something special.Service:The hotel staff at ALBA went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and at home throughout my extended stay. From the front desk to the housekeeping team, everyone was friendly, professional, and always ready to assist with any request. They made me feel like a valued guest, and their warm hospitality made a significant difference in my overall experience.Overall, my stay at ALBA was an unforgettable experience. It provided me with a comfortable and luxurious home away from home, and I will cherish the memories made during my time there. I would highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a remarkable and extended stay experience, Thank you, ALBA, for making my stay so exceptional!

This was one of the best places (including a few three start hotels) that I have ever stayed at during a trip to someplace! The beds were very comfortable, and the rooms & toilets clean! The owner was really sweet and friendly..There are both, a railway station and a bus stop, right across the road where you can find transportation to Central Glasgow. All of this, at a very affordable price!It was a delight to stay here, and I would definitely consider staying here the next time I visit Glasgow. This is a place that made us feel like we don't deserve something so nice! Thank you, Mauro, for making our experience of Glasgow much better than it already way.

I had an amazing stay at ALBA hostel! The staff was friendly

I've wrote a review months ago on trip advisor and this is a second review.I've never reviewed anything in my life but feel this needs to be done.This should be a place we're other hostel accommodations take the lead from.When I arrived I was a broken homeless man broken physically mentally and emotionally my spirit was gone.When I was told walking through the door welcome to the family I never expected 3and a half months down the line that family was exactly what they promised and thats what I got.I got welcomed and treated woth dignity and respect and have been basically loved until I loved myself by staff in here.There will be a time I have to leave here and honestly I'm looking forward to it and saddened at the same time because there's no place like this anywhere.I'd like to thank Jimmy for seeing in me something I thought I'd lost and kept pushing me to get my fight back and I have achieved more than I ever thought in these months.I'd also like to give mauro the biggest mention for the support love kindness and all round help to get me on my feet again.There's no were in glasgow that compares and I think the locall council could take some direction from these people.Hearing the word hostel brings up notions in people's heads if gritty addicts bedrooms and the worst and vulnerable in society.This is the inly place that can take the most vulnerable and turn there lives around just by the care and human aspect of their interaction.Any fault when reported is fixed the next day.They can't do enough and not once have I ever felt beneath anyone I've been helped to hold my head up and be counted.Like I said I never review anything but this needed doing and I hope the staff see this as my words can't do justice to how I feel.The alba hostel is far the best thing to happen to anyone who has the luck to get in.If you want a life there there to help of your just not willing to help yourself then you will look back on your time here and wish you'd done more to be part of.Also a shout out yo the night staff every one of them has been amazing any time of night if their needed there there.Do friendly and caring you wouldn't believe.Thank you alba for everything I love you all

It's very clean the location is a bit far if no bus pass or fare it's a bit of a walk.

Met with open arms by a helpful host in Mario. The hostel is secure and includes a car park at the back. A fridge with free sandwiches and crisps on the side is a nice touch. Helpful that there was a wetherspoons next door for a drink. The botanic gardens are a half hour walk down the road and the west end itself is just an hours walk. Overall a great stay, would recommend.

It’s a really nice place to stay at as the staff are friendly and welcoming. Highly would recommend to anyone wanting a comfortable place to stay.

The people who work in hostel are very happy to help and will go out their way to make sure you have a happy stay in hostel nothing to much hassle for them and rooms are clean bright It is the best hostel I have been in and will be sorry to leave but things go on in life . The hostel is close to all local transport services which can get you all over the city and all over Scotland so handy for every thing

My husband and I stayed here for a couple of nights and we had a very wonderful, peaceful, relaxing, enjoyable stay. The beds were comfortable, we enjoyed conversations with fellow travelers, Mauro at reception was so incredibly friendly and accommodating, kitchen facilities were excellent, common rooms were great, showers were hot and had great pressure, quiet as it is located further out from the city center yet it is a very short walk to bus Stop and train station. Great value. Would recommend to others!!

Great location for the west end of Glasgow, the place is kept very clean and runs very smoothly. Staff are amazing and helpful, especially Mario who made me feel incredibly welcome and at home.
