Location !
The Alma is conveniently located by the train station. It’s literally steps away. It’s in a great area with dining and shops in walking distance. They have a lively pub and quaint restaurant on site. The rooms are comfortable with space to stretch out after a long travel day.

We had a great time! Perfect experience if you want a pub feel, but still a lovely room and quiet stay. They have an adorable pub dog, tasty breakfast, and lots of attention to detail. Everyone was so kind.

A brilliant gastro pub with a really lovely hotel
We loved this pub and hotel. The staff were superb. Especially our waiter who created a new table for us to have lunch as the pub was so busy. The check in staff were super friendly. Our food was first class and the room was really comfy with loads of extras and a lovely mini bar.

Loved this quiet little stay a bit further from city center. On our last day we figured out the trains and let me suggest to utilize those on your trip! I’d never navigated public trains before and it was super simple. There’s a few restaurants and a little mart on this street. The hotel is situated inside the only bar/restaurant on the street, which was very convenient but not distributive at all.

Fabulous hotel.
The Alma is a gem.Tucked away in a "foody" street, but opposite Wandsworth Town rail station, this is a blend of buzzing gastropub and genuine charm high-end hotel. Impeccably managed by a dog-loving manager and a great team, we found the Alma to be one of the best hotels we have stayed in. Our room was super-comfortable and had everything we could possibly need, from a Nespresso machine (with fresh milk in the fridge) to a large bath and excellent rain shower. Most importantly, the bed was super-comfortable. The Alma is part of a hotel group, and these people clearly know their stuff. Will we stay there again? You bet!
