Reviews and Pictures Balmoral

Besides the excellent location, beautiful rooms and stunning building, the best thing about The Balmoral is its team of friendly and dedicated staff, who effortlessly give the impression that anything is possible. The hotel was first opened 15 October 1902, but didn't become The Balmoral until 1991. Expect Victorian splendor and classic elegance with a modern twist - the hotel completed a £7 million refurbishment program in March 2004, and the results are still fresh. The Balmoral is home to Edinburgh's only Michelin-starred hotel restaurant, but there are three more eateries to choose from if formal dining's not your cup of tea! Relax in the spa, lunch at Hadrian's Brasserie, or enjoy a champagne tea at the stunning Bollinger Bar. If you have time after all that, pop outside and explore Edinburgh's numerous attractions, which seem to be conveniently clustered right at The Balmoral's doorstep.
