Best Western Glasgow South Eglinton Arms Hotel

We made this visit back in January but never got round to making a post which was a bit remiss as the hotel deserved the praise. The hotel is well located just south of Glasgow in a relatively quiet village. The whole hotel was very nicely decorated, furnished and upkeep was excellent. Staff throughout the hotel were excellent, friendly and extremely helpful. Customer service was not an ad hoc phrase they had learnt, they put it into practice. The room was a reasonable size, clean, very comfortable, and had everything we required. The en-suite bathroom was also good, a decent shower with plenty of hot water. A bonus was the traditional pub which is part of the hotel, however you do have to go outside and walk round the corner to get to the bar. Small price to pay for some decent beer, and football on the TV much to my wife’s disgust. We ate in the restaurant that evening which offered a nice variety on the menu. The ambience through the bar and restaurant areas was very pleasant and the whole meal was excellent, very nicely cooked, we had steak and fish between us for the mains. Service was very friendly and attentive without being in your face, and we had an extremely nice evening. A good range on the breakfast menu, again the food was excellent, and the environment allowed a nice casual start to the day. First class, highly recommended and would definitely stay again. less

Our group of five (two couples and our 4 year old boy) visited our dear friends living in Eaglesham and were delighted to spend three nights at this fine establishment, early this May. We were quite lucky and enjoyed four days of sunny weather, and our toddler took full advantage of the childrens' park just across the street. Our rooms were spotless and very well decorated. And how about that, at night we could actually stargaze through our roof windows! And each morning we tried a different take on Scottish breakfast at the restaurant. The full Scottish breakfast (with back pudding, bacon, mushrooms and all) was my and my brother's favourite. The staff were very warm and friendly both at the restaurant and at the front desk, providing useful information on local sites to visit, either close by (e.g. Whitelee Windfarm or Rouken Glen Park) or at downtown Glasgow, and there was always a smiling face to greet us when we returned from our local (or not so local) trips. Overall a wonderful experience we would all recommend and hope to have again sometime! less

Since finding the Eglington Arms, I use it whenever I need to travel and stay over in Glasgow. I and my fellow directors find it a great place unwind after our quarterly review meetings. Poached eggs at breakfast are superb and dinner menu is varied and interesting. less

This is a gem of a hotel and would thoroughly recommend to anyone visiting the vicinity! We have attended many functions there and eaten regularly within the hotel restaurant. The standard is extremely high. We always book our visiting friends into "The Egg" which is basically a high class boutique hotel in our beautiful conservation village! less

We didn't spend much time in the hotel to be honest but that doesn't mean we didn't enjoy our stay which we definitely did. We checked in late a night after weeding reception which was a very slick and efficient service by the night porter who was very friendly indeed. We then quickly dumped the cases in the room which to our surprise was very nice and well appointed. Modern bathroom and everything you would expect.....but more so it was absolutely spotless in bathroom and bedroom - big plus for my Wife! The bed was also incredibly comfy which my wife agreed - 2nd big plus! Went to the bar for a nightcap and was again served by a young chap who was very accommodating. The breakfast was fantastic and had a great choice on offer which did the job! Apologies if I am wrong but this hotel was listed I think as a 3 Star property which really doesn't do it justice. The service and standards on offer are well above many 4 Star properties that I have used so I must congratulate the management team and staff. I would definitely recommend staying here again. less
