Comfortable stay with all the nice furnishings, although the corridors was something from a 1980s horror movie!

No parking and bag drop-off is not easy. Feels a little outdated but lots of tea and coffee provided in room.

Very comfortable, older hotel at a great location with friendly & helpful staff. I like smaller, older hotels instead of big chains. The Alfred was nice with no frills - I enjoyed it & would return.

Beauty is in the detail
Bed IN A REAL BAD SHAPE (like my back after this terrible night). TV does not work and the remote control is disgustingly dirty anyway. The hotel entrance is in the dark, and of course with the rain I fall down Only positive point: the lady at the desk is extremely nice..

Booed to have a night away just the two of us then due to family circumstances we could no longer manage our booking, the staff were great when I contacted the hotel contacted and we then decided to bring the kids, this was promptly arranged. When we arrived our room was really big and the kids were really happy. The room was a tad on the dark side for me but that’s jut my taste however it was very in keeping with the style of the room. My wee boy had an accident in the way back at night and the lovely lady on the desk made him some toast! Breakfast was great and the hotel is very central we would stay again

The Alfred
Hotel was lovely and staff very welcoming. The heating was set a bit too high for me, and the shower isn’t the most powerful. There was also a dressing table in my room, but no chair or mirror nearby, which made getting ready to go out a bit tricky. Otherwise I really enjoyed my stay. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast in the morning was great.

Great night away from the kids at The Alfred.
This was perfect for a night away in the West End. We were attending a concert at Oran Mor nearby and we couldn't have asked for a better location. The hotel is beautifully decorated and the staff were very welcoming. My only criticism is that the shower was not the best. I realise that our room was at the top of the property, so pressure is an issue. but I'm sure it could be improved somehow.
