Lovely hotel in a lovely location, with a chirpy chap on reception. We were staying there as attending the Taylor Swift concert at Murrayfield and didn't get back until late and they were very accommodating (no pun intended). So only slept there and didn't really get to experience the hotel and area properly.
There wasn't any food available by the time we got there just after 2.30 pm and as we were being picked up by taxi at 3.45 pm to take us to Murrayfield, we were hungry. We had planned to get there earlier but our first train was delayed by 30 minutes which meant we missed our connection to Burntisland. There were no taxis available when we finally got to the station at Burntisland (School run time at 2 pm apparently) as the hotel is about a 30 minute walk away, but on the advice of one of the local taxis firms we walked to the high street and got a bus, we only had to wait about 10 minutes and it stops just outside the hotel. We didn't book breakfast as we wanted to spend a few hours in Edinburgh before we headed home. (Had breakfast at the Edinburgh Larder in Black friars street which highly recommend).I have to say you think this hotel is miles away if you want to visit Edinburgh, but with the bus and train you can be in Edinburgh in about 45 minutes, plus you get to go over the stunning Forth railway bridge, views are amazing.

Reasonable accommodation in the centre of Burntisland. Fair price for what it is.
A friendly, family-run hotel situated in one of Fife's picturesque coastal villages, specialising in fresh fare, using local Scottish produce where possible.

Breakfast was ok with freshly cooked options. Nice little village if you have 90 mins or more to get to Edinburgh.

Located in Kinghorn, 1.5 km from Pettycur Beach, The Bay Hotel provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. This 4-star hotel offers a bar.
We booked this hotel for an event in Kirkcaldy. It turned out to be further away than we hoped (15 minutes drive) consequently we had little time to look round Burntisland but it seemed to offer little for a visitor in January. Hotel was a bit out of Burntisland and we took a walk in one morning but unfortunately the railway blocked the view and did not allow for walking along the beach

We stayed 6 nights in Burntisland, by the 3rd day, we felt like it was "our town". Everyone was so friendly. Once we told anyone that this was our first time in Scotland, they seemed eager to answer our questions and suggest little things make our visit more enjoyable. There are no chain restaurants or businesses in Burntisland. That (and the cheerful people) is what makes it such a charming town. The Links Fish and Chips was The BEST

Lovely quiet residential seaside resort . Not commercial but amazing coastline , walks & views. 30 mins by train across the bridge to Edinburgh. Good stop if wish to travel further north . Limited accommodation available . The Sands best for nice meal and friendly drink in beach location . The high street offered cute traditional friendly cafe .. the olive branch , also more trendy brunch establishment called the Roasting Project was lovely .

Nice coastal town on the Firth of Forth opposite Edinburgh.
Nice coastal town on the Firth of Forth opposite Edinburgh. As we have family in the town we visit regularly. In the summer the "shows" (a huge funfair just back from the coast) operate and are a major visitor attraction. Not many restaurants but a couple of the hotels serve meals to non-residents (but NOT the Burntisland House). Sits on the Fife Coastal Path.

It’s rough and ready, my friend thought it was a homeless shelter. My issue was I can’t manage stairs well and they’d put us in the top floor no lift! Plus staff had been there for less than a week and no parking!
The paint was peeling off the walls, our double bed was a small double and creaked with every move and so uncomfortable. The single chair in the three bed room was held together with tape and the skylight window didn’t shut properly. We left after suffering one night.
The staff at Burntisland were wonderful! We had a mix-up at check-in — requested a twin room (even verified via Booking e-mail 2 weeks prior to stay) but were given a double room. Joan (I think was her name) was very kind and gave us a roll-away for the first night and then made sure that we were in a twin room the next night. Joan is a really hard worker and went out of her way to help us with other things. Also the breakfasts were the best of all the places we stayed while in Scotland — really amazing cook!
From the moment you enter the hotel you are welcomed by the staff,room was lovely and clean and a lovely sea view with balcony.. in the bar great selection of drinks..and a fabulous selection of meals on the menu as we were having an evening meal.. food was absolutely delicious...and all staff and obviously dal were all very accommodating to all our needs...definitely will be back xx
The property was quaint and very clean. Staff were all lovely and the service was excellent. We had dinner and breakfast and we thoroughly enjoy it. Lovely outdoor area which looked fairly new. Heaters and shelter with a small park for the children. Lovely 5 minute walk to the beach, large park and Burntisland fair. Would definitely return.
The studio is perfect for a short stay, nice kitchen and bathroom and cosy living / bedroom.
Parking our car was no problem.
Shops are close by and the railway station around the corner.
Easy access to Edinburgh, which is less then 40 minutes by train (bicycles allowed for free) or exploring the area to the North East of Burntisland.
Much closer to the town centre than I expected and access to Edinburgh was really easy by train. Burntisland is lovely and I would like to have had more time to explore further into Fife.
The flat was very clean, TBH, it looks like it’s just been refurbished.
Owners were very friendly, however I didn’t have many dealings with them
Me and my Partner liked the hotel it was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was really nice.
The staff were really nice and acommondating, when we arrived the hotel owner made us feel very welcome and he said we could put our Motorbike behind the building so it was not on show.
Thank you

Apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Location was perfect for me because it was close to my friends in Burntisland, but is in a good location anyway - close to train station and handy for beach and town centre. Excellent communication from Jamie and Poppy who were very welcoming.
We loved the rustic feel of Kingswood Hotel, it felt cosy and was the perfect spot to spend a night while walking the Fife Coastal Path. The room was huge. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and we loved the cooked breakfast!
Staff were all excellent and very focused during a busy holiday period. All the meals were excellent, but the Full Scottish breakfast was exceptional! The location is spot on for access to everything Burntisland has to offer.
