ABOUT US

Since 2009, Alba Hostel Glasgow has provided global travellers a comfortable stopping point in Glasgow. Set within a prestigious Victorian building with high ceilings, spacious rooms, wooden panelling and original fireplaces, AHG is a boutique hostel that offers a homely stay.

We are not a youth hostel and are not party central. If you are looking for a well earned comfortable and good nights rest, then AHG is the place to come. With good public transport links to the town center.

    Dempta enim aeternitate nihilo beatior Iuppite

    Praeclarae mortes sunt imperatoriae; Dempta enim aeternitate nihilo beatior Iuppiter quam Epicurus; Indicant pueri, in quibus ut in speculis natura cernitur. Quid, de quo nulla dissensio est? Ita relinquet duas, de quibus etiam atque etiam consideret. Primum Theophrasti, Strato, physicum se voluit; Et harum quidem rerum facilis est et expedita distinctio. Huius, Lyco, oratione locuples, rebus ipsis ielunior.

    OUR REVIEWS

    Many travellers overlook reviews and just look at price when it comes to booking a bed. Not all places are the same quality and service, and it shouldn’t be taken for granted. All too often we hear of travellers being shocked at other places and then coming to stay with us. Avoid the surprises and having to book twice by reading reviews of all places before booking. At Alba Hostel Glasgow, we believe and take pride in providing high quality standards and service. That may be why we are ranked top 3 accommodation in Glasgow! We are one of the few places that publish our reviews, have a look at what previous guests think of us…
