Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The hotel and room were incredibly clean, the day staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was spacious and well equipped. The hotel is deceptively large and sprawls wide across a small number of floors, so there can be a bit of a walk, with a number of rooms a fair distance from the lifts, with stairs in between. I found the day staff a lot friendlier and assisting than the night staff!

Comfortable bed and the staff were so lovely, very friendly and quick to respond. The shower itself was excellent. However, the bathroom sink was blocked and very slow to drain. Although staff attended promptly, the problem returned during the stay. There was also some noise from the corridor, particularly late in the evening. The hotel feels a little tired in places- reception carpet, corridors carpets and sofas in reception could do with updating. Some basic amenities were missing, such as hand lotion and a full-length mirror. Good location and helpful staff, but maintenance and overall condition affected the experience. I would consider returning in the future if the reception and communal areas were refreshed.

Staff were overwhelmed because of the influx of new guests stuck in BHam but this could have been prepared for and only having two members of staff and hence cancelling any food for guests was a stupid situation. Room was tired and drafty

The Burlington is unique in that it adjoins the Railway Station and also fronts New Street the main shopping street. Built by The Midland Railway and containing the original beautiful Architecture. The bedrooms are large, the breakfast excellent and the staff perfect. We organised an event here via Ella and we booked 6 bedrooms. The most convenient location in Birmingham. Absolutely recommended.
