The Almanett Hotel & Bistro near The Aquarium

From the moment we arrived, The Almanett Hotel exceeded every expectation. The boutique charm, combined with top-notch hospitality, made our stay both relaxing and memorable. The Della room was beautifully appointed with modern amenities and stunning views — the perfect blend of comfort and elegance. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, offering personalized service with genuine Southern hospitality. One of the highlights was dining at the bistro restaurant downstairs. The food was absolutely delicious, and the sunset view over the Gulf made the experience unforgettable. Whether you’re in town for a romantic getaway, business, or just some much-needed rest, The Almanett is the perfect place. We can’t wait to return!

My sister and I wanted to have brunch and wanted to try something quite and different. We heard about the Almanett Hotel & Bistro. First off we were greeted once the door open with a smile and warm welcome. The gumbo was superb. Trevor our server was amazing and tentative. The manager Shay was so passionate about the items on the menu taken her time telling us about each menu and Trevor patiently waited as we made our choice. I went with a cup of seafood gumbo in the cat fish and shrimp plate With the greens and jambalaya as my sides. The food taste just as good as it looks. We will definitely be coming back for the great service and great food.

This is a special place, definitely my favorite stay in the Gulf. Simple but welcoming rooms with a nice balcony. It is especially nice to walk downstairs in the evenings where you find yourself in an upscale bar -restaurant and wonder if your attire needs an upgrade. The food is superb, atmosphere delightful, personalities unforgettable. Nice dark cozy place to have a bourbon. Location is excellent - easy walk to beach for swimming or sailing.

Stayed at the Almanett for a night to go to the aquarium the next day and it was fantastic! The owner was super nice and give us a tour on the way to our room. It's a super nice and homey place to stay and everything was very clean and well-stocked. The bathroom was spacious and the bed was comfortable. Additionally, the food at the bistro is delicious, they have some of the best fried catfish this side of the Mississippi river and wonderful signature drinks.

My birthday party meal was super delicious and everyone enjoyed their food. No leftovers. The ambiance was mellow and nice. I will certainly patronize The Almanett Hotel and Bistro more often. Love it.
