The Almanett Hotel & Bistro near The Aquarium

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.

Mother’s Day spent here was a regret. Waited over two and half hours for food. They had the nerve to ask for an extra tip. Ran out of the food I originally ordered after 2 hours. Worst experience ever. Will never be back and will encourage anyone to be serious and pick a better place to eat.

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.

I love staying at this hotel it's amazing! the staff is so nice! They are extremely sweet especially the cleaning couple and Tasha and Angel and Polky and the place is extremely clean. The beds are super comfortable your views amazing it's nice and quiet. No loud people or neighbors and you can walk to the beach if you wanted to it's not far. it is our favorite place to go on our anniversary trips. The food is amazing downstairs if you stay here you will not regret it

On April 18, 2025 we had a large group of eight was supposed to be 10 had an amazing dinner there. Our server was extremely amazing. The food there is top notch. The catfish was some of the best I’ve ever had. The people from Lowe’s in Gulfport Really enjoyed the food. And also, they have happy hour there till seven.

Great atmosphere people and drinks/food!

This is a place I look forward to being away from crowded hotels in a friendly environment.

Ridiculously terrible parking. Either park in front of residential neighbors or navigate their tiny parking area with only room for one car at a time in or out. Not managed well at all, not really wide enough spaces for bigger trucks or SUV's. Probably fine for hotel guests but for trying to eat on a weekend its not at all worth the effort.

The food was great and the atmosphere fantastic will go back

Last Sunday I tried the meatloaf special and it was amazing! This hotel and bistro with outdoor seating is hidden right behind Shaggies!

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.

Best fish a.d shrimp. i just wish the potatoe salad wasn't so bitter cut back on pickles or mustard. The mac and cheese is the best

They have the best lamb chops on the coast. I got gorgeous the food.

Great food,drinks,and beautiful rooms at this boutique hotel!

I just went for Lunch on a Friday. There were NO cars in parking lot at 11:30 and they made me move my car when I was parked ima legal spot. Something not right !
