I’ve been living in Alba Hostel Glasgow for the last three months. Compared with some other hostels situated in the city center, this one is good value for money and by no means overcrowded. In fact, its situation itself constitutes a great advantage for me, since I haven’t had to share the room with many or even a few visitors... More

I have been living in this comfortable hostel with my wife and two little daughters since the early October this year. With its completely equipped kitchen and 24 hours available hot water showers It's been like a home to me. Number and variety of utensils and kitchen facilities is more than enough for hostel guests even in its busiest day.... More

I am living in this nice hostel for two months and so far it's good. My room is really comfortable and I like the kitchen, I can always cook my meals there. It feels like home for me. There is an access to the grocery store, Morrisons, with very good food at very good prices. Right next to the grocery... More

My second visit in a year; still a great hostel! Great location near train and bus stops, food shops, restaurants and pubs, but the place itself is on a quiet side street, with private car park. Good hot showers and excellent commercial style kitchen with frigs and cupboards for guest food. Beds are clean, warm and firm. Cards can usually... More

Staff is very friendly and kitchen is nice and big. Every essential need is available in this hostel, to give you a memorable experience. I came here from Nigeria for a placement in Gartnavel Hospital and the hostel was just good for me.Really enjoyed it. Nice guests too. would recommend to others.

I needed a place to stay while working in a nearby hospital, so found Alba Hostel Glasgow. Great location, close to all amenities and transport. Friendly, helpful staff and reasonable price. I'd recommend it, specially for short stay.

I needed a place to stay while working in the small animal hospital up the road for a few weeks so the location was perfect. That is all. They don't take cards so I was made to walk up the block to get money out from an ATM which is when I should have turned around and left. The receipt... More

A group of 6 of us stayed here last night in our own dorm. Room was spotless and beds were really comfy. The staff were really helpful, even finding us a spare mirror to ease the process if getting ready for a night out! Taxi to city centre only costs £6 but the hostel staff will drop you off for...
