We booked a twin ensuite room at this hotel. The room was clean and the beds a good size. Our ensuite was accessed via three stairs. The bathroom facilities were basic but clean. We ate our evening meal in the hotel bar area (same food as dining room). The food was attractively presented and delicious. Reasonably priced. Service was good. Breakfast was buffet style with plenty of choice

Glorious Glenburn

A truly marvellous stay at The Glenburn. We had a great nights sleep with a brilliant Scottish breakfast!! Hotel is amazing from the tartan carpets down to the splendour of the views from the terrace. Staff were friendly and happy to accommodate early arrivals with welcome tea and coffee. Whilst the hotel was a little dated in parts, I thought this added to the old school Scottish charm.I shall be staying here again!!

Pros - Large hotel with character, comfy bed, good bedsheets & duvet, very warm radiators, friendly check in. Also very cheap for when we booked so pretty happy with the cost. Cons - very worn fittings, carpets, furniture. There were multiple stains on our bedroom carpet, stains on the bedframe. The shower was really old, water wasn’t that warm. Short of fitting a new carpet and new bed there wasn’t really a solution so didn’t complain but the whole place needs some money put into it for sure.

A great hotel.

The staff were very friendly and attentive. The hotel was very comfortable with large clean rooms. We were in a dog friendly room as were a lot of the guests. The hotel is handy for walking around Rothesay Main Street.

The Glenburn Hotel has outstanding views from the hotel restaurant / lobby area, so I enjoyed it as much as I could since my room looked on to the roof, blocking the view. A little misguided from the outstanding photos on Expedia. The staff were very accommodating and welcoming and I really enjoyed my walks in the lovely area of Rothesay. This coastal town allows you to feel disconnected, without having to be too far from the mainland. I would definitely suggest taking a taxi from the ferry if you have any mobility issues or large pieces of luggage. The hotel is on top of a hill, so could be a challenging climb
