Alma Lodge Guest House

Perfect if you’re going to the football, very well priced and not too far of a walk to home park. Would definitely recommend this B&B. Staff friendliness was another level of incredible. Great family run business.

I stayed at Alma Lodge guest house because I was going to the 'Live In The Park' festival a few minutes walk away. Kerry is fabulous - nothing is too much trouble for her. I needed to arrive early due to the gates of the festival opening at 12.30. I spoke to her before the day and she arranged for me to check in at 11.30am at no extra charge! On the day I missed my train and so arrived later than this and she was waiting to check me in and show me to my room so that I could get to the event. She gave me directions to the park entrance and advised me of somewhere to get a meal if I needed it. The room was spotless and very comfortable. As others have said, the guest house is on a main road but no noise could be heard from this. Breakfast was freshly cooked, hot and delicious. I travel in the UK a lot and if I am in Plymouth again Alma Lodge will be where I am staying! Thanks Kerry!

It was close to the places I needed to be

We went to Plymouth for football and arrived at Alma Lodge at 9pm and was met by the owner with a smile and couldnt do enough for us after our long journey. We fillled out our pre order Breakfast form,had a good nights sleep,went down to breakfast and was met by the owners daughter who looked after us for breakfast,which was very good ingredients and she also pointed us in the right direction for our walk to Plymouth Hoe which was really lovely. Our Sunday breakfast was as good as Saturday with extra drinks and Toast on offer. if we visit Plymouth again we wouldnt hesitate to book our stay at Alma Lodge.

We booked the Alma Lodge Guesthouse for the night as we were going to a concert in Plymouth & didn't fancy driving home straight afterwards. As always you're never sure what to expect but we were extremely pleased with what we found! We were made to feel very welcome & they even managed to have our room ready earlier than planned to help us get to the concert in plenty of time, which was greatly appreciated on our part. The room was very clean & well presented & they'd made excellent use of the space they've got. We had a double & single in our room, plenty of storage & small en-suite which was perfect for us. Breakfast is pre-order, which we're always fine with although we needed to order everything on the form including what cereal, what type of toast & sauces etc. Again, not a problem but a bit unusual, although it did mean they were fully prepared in the morning with everything on our table so in that respect it works very well. The breakfast was all beautifully cooked, & nice & hot. On site parking is fairly tight, room for 3 cars, otherwise it would be finding somewhere on 1 of the side roads which all looked quite full as in a residential area. Again though, as we parked on site it wasn't a problem for us. We both agreed we'd definitely stay at the Alma Lodge Guesthouse again the next time we're in Plymouth. Well done to the family, lovely place & great hosts!

We stayed on the weekend following the Alive at Plymouth event. We were supposed to check in after 4 but needed to be there before 3 so we were leaving our car and coming back later as arranged with the hosts. When we got there, the room was already ready which was fantastic so they obviously had a tough morning getting all the rooms together early, so thank you. Room was clean, comfortable and had everything needed. Lovely bathroom with a wet room and freestanding bathtub. Quiet evening though on a main road you can't hear any traffic at all. Breakfast was lovely and was plenty. Catered for me as a vegetarian too. Really couldn't fault it and would stay again when visiting Plymouth. Thank you.

Lovely clean, nicely decorated. Lovely breakfast cooked to perfection. Very friendly and was made to feel very welcome. Advice was given to visit a local place, which is a nice touch. Will definitely go back if in the area again & need a place to stay.

Owner very friendly and informative on on arrival, our room was facing onto a very busy, noisy road but when all the windows were shut it was completely quite, bedding clean, we were offered fans if we got to hot, the tea tray was very well stocked, the breakfast ordering was really organised, we had everything we ordered and asking for extra's was not a problem, overall clean and tidy, my only issue was the matress was on the soft side and the duvet was extremely thin.

Our third stay at Alma House, that really says it all. Paula & Kelly make us so welcome. Nothing is too much trouble. We feel like part of the family. Comfortable beds & pillows. Everything's clean & tidy. We like staying here. A plus is its on the bus route.
