The room was decent, but a rat greeted us at the entrance.

the staff were rly friendly n super helpful. room was clean n comfy, just like a home from home. breakfast had plenty of options, i loved the free coffee n tea in the room. very close to hillsborough, so perfect location for us, and parking was reserved which was great. felt like a nice escape after a long trip.

the stairs were quite steep which was a bit of a hassle, and the room could've use more space.

What an amazing stay! The freshly cooked breakfasts were delicious and just what we needed! Our room was super clean and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere was truly welcoming.

Excellent host interaction

The charming decor of the Alara felt like a warm hug, with bright colors and cozy touches. The well-lit stairs, though steep, had sturdy railings that made me feel safer navigating up and down during my stay.

More accessible bathroom facilities would be ideal.

the alara is truly a home away from home! the rooms were bright and spotlessly clean, and the breakfast offered a great variety. what stood out was the magnificent service from katie, who treated us like family. plus, it's just a short walk to the tramlines festival.

strongly recommend

had a super nice stay at alara bnb. the host was really welcoming and i even got to store my bike in her garage which was a huge relief! the room i got was comfy and the bathroom was spotless. loved the brekkie selection, tons of yummy stuff to choose from. oh and the location was perfect for getting to the city center!

This place suits me perfectly. It has everything I need, including a flat-screen TV, free wi-fi, and electric kettle. On my first stay, the staff guided me to great dining options. Highly recommend for a relaxing stay! I'm coming back for a city trip.

my previous stay in sheffield was decent, but this time it exceeded my expectations. the location was perfect for the tramlines festival, and the comfortable en-suite room was a welcome surprise. overall, the ambiance was peaceful and provided a relaxing escape. d

no breakfast included in the price

Had a lovely, quiet night with comfy beds and an extensive breakfast selection including fresh fruit and pastries. Definitely would stay here again!

would definitely go back

Had a really great stay in a Standard Single Room. The bed was comfy with fresh linens, and the shared bathroom was always clean. Enjoyed a delicious breakfast with options like fresh fruit and yogurt. The host was incredibly helpful, and I even got to safely store my bike overnight. Perfect for a cyclist!

I was warmly welcomed by the staff, who ensured my comfort throughout my stay. The rooms were clean and tidy with charming decor, creating a cozy atmosphere that felt like a true home away from home.

Steep stairs may be challenging for seniors.

Had a lovely time here during three nights of our stay! We enjoyed unwinding in the cozy lounge and the delightful backyard garden after visiting the city. Just a heads up, the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty at times, but it didn't really take away from our experience. 😊

cozy stay but minor room issues

The bed provided an excellent level of comfort for my sleep each night. the view of the garden from my room added a lovely touch to the atmosphere.

There were minor issues with the room that affected the overall experience.

I recently stayed at The Alara for one night, drawn in by its positive reviews. The welcome from Katie was warm and friendly, making me feel right at home from the start. My room was clean, with ample tea and coffee making facilities and a handy wash basin. The shared toilet and shower were on the floor below, which I found manageable. The cleanliness throughout was a strong point. I enjoyed the full English breakfast, which was one of the best I’ve had. The portions were generous, featuring all the classic elements, served by cheerful staff. The location is perfect for getting to Hillsborough Stadium and the tram lines. just a short walk away. the steep and narrow stairs to the top floor were a bit of a challenge, especially with luggage. The noise from the main road could be bothersome when the window was open, although the glazing helped a lot. I experienced some cold drafts in my room, making it a tad uncomfortable for sleeping. Despite these minor inconveniences, the ambiances were nice and made for a pleasant stay. If you stay here, be ready for the steep climb and have a peaceful rest afterward.
