This hotel was wonderful. The staff was excellent, friendly, helpful, and so nice. The hotel and the room are beautiful and in a great central location. They are kid-friendly and have the room prepared for our daughter. She felt like the hotel was all about her with cookies, chocolate milk, a cute owl stuffy and her own bath accessories. Room service was also excellent. This is one of, if not the nicest, hotels we have experienced in all of our travels.
Fabulous property in the city centre. Gorgeous room, with everything we needed, spotlessly clean, beautiful bed linen and towels. Great shower and bath. Expensive, even for Edinburgh but a great experience. Lovely breakfast, good coffee and beautiful public areas.
Fabulous hotel had a great 1 night stay hotel staff all outstanding but be aware they make had a 2% service charge but apart from that would definitely stay again
The atmosphere and ambience is one no other can compete with.
This hotel is centrally located in Edinburgh and the service goes beyond excellence.
Thank you Balmoral I’ve left my heart in Scotland!
The most beautiful hotel and attentive staff you could ask for. All requests were handled professionally and truly was a memorable experience. Afternoon tea at Palm court was also sublime.
We had an amazing time t the Balmoral. The staff from you entered until you left were wonderful. Room was very comfortable and the breakfast was first class with wide selection on buffet and hot food order was wonderful. We will be back.
