“This hotel stands out for its helpful staff and convenient location near the train station and a bus stop, making it easy to get around Glasgow. The recent modernization of the bar area enhances the experience, though some may find the rooms a bit dated. In my opinion, the staff's attentiveness and the updated bar are definite highlights.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Burnside Hotel is often praised for its great value, especially when compared to city center accommodations, while still offering convenient access to Hampden stadium. Guests appreciate the well-decorated and clean rooms, some noting the convenience of having an ironing table and iron, as well as spotless kettles. The location is also a plus, with a bus stop right outside and a train station just a minute away, making it easy to get to central Glasgow in about 20 minutes; however, a few guests have found the room prices a bit high for the size and breakfast provided.

Acceptable Stay with Plumbing Issues

insufficient shower pressureslow draining sink
My stay had some setbacks. The shower pressure was insufficient, hindering a proper wash. the bathroom sink drained very slowly. This was inconvenient and suggests a maintenance issue that needs addressing.

Acceptable stay.

convenient locationfriendly staffrailway noisebroken lock
The location was convenient. Close to public transport, I could easily reach the city center. The staff were friendly and helpful. They made check-in easy and responded quickly to my questions.
My room faced the railway line, and it was noisy when trains passed. The bathroom door was difficult to close. The lock was broken. I hope it can be fixed.

warm roomfriendly staffgreat breakfastthin mattress
My room was wonderfully warm. I turned down the heating. the staff are friendly. it seemed like staying with family with only 16 rooms. breakfast was great, the quality of the food being fantastic.
the mattress was thin and not comfortable. i could hear noise from the next room and hallway clearly. the trains passing every half hour were also loud. opening the window was necessary because there was no ventilation.
