Location. Concierge staff.
Price at festival time.
‘Suggested’ pre-charge of 5% to cover service we hadn’t yet experienced. Put me right off the place, unfortunately!
The staff go above and beyond to meet your expectations. Very friendly and always on hand to try and assist. Ross in the whisky bar is a walking encyclopedia.
Nothing, it was all fabulous
Alle Restaurants waren toll, wir haben sowohl das Nachtessen im Number One, wie das Frühstück sehr genossen.
Das Zimmer war eine grosse Enttäuschung, für 1400 SFR war es das schlechteste Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, das wir je erlebt haben. Das Zimmer war recht klein mit Blick an eine Hausmauer. Das Zimmer hatte keinen Charme, nichts historisches, es sah aus, wie ein Businesshotel. Im Badezimmer schaute noch ein Kabel aus der Wand. Die Klimaanlage war sehr laut und stank nach Essen, die Fenster liessen sich nicht öffnen.
Beautiful,smart & comfortable hotel .
Nothing to dislike.
Really nice hotel, great staff, tasty food, comfy bed, best icecream (Joelato), very pleasant scent in the lobby. Would definitely come back!
Spent 4 nights at The Balmoral Hotel recently on a trip to Scotland. It was hands-down the best hotel experience I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve stayed at the Beverly Wilshire in Los Angeles, the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego, Hilton’s Conrad properties all over, JW Marriott’s and Four Seasons. Never have I had the combination of Service, History, and Location that I had at the Balmoral. It blows them all away and is my new gold standard. On the service front, when housekeeping tidied up our room or did turn-down service they put our eyeglasses on lens wipes and put a bookmark in our books. I know that might sound silly, but the level of attention to detail like that was the type of thing that really stood out. Another thing: being a guest at the hotel entitles you to use of their spa facilities, namely the steam room and sauna. That is a benefit that is typically reserved for spa guests only. At the daily included breakfast they had an incredible spread and menu options. I got eggs benedict or avocado toast. So good. The staff were all wonderful, from bellmen at the door to front desk to the restaurant and whiskey room, and of course the aforementioned housekeeping team. Their whiskey room must have had a selection of over 500 bottles from across Scotland. We did a flight and had a great experience. Finally, location cannot be beat. Right in the heart of the city, next to the largest train station, walkable to everything, with unbostructed views from all sides. Incredible. 10/10, will stay again.
A great place. Classy and delicious. Yes, it is a bit expensive, but it was worth it. I will go back there when I return to Edinburgh again.
The hotel is of a very good standard, in an excellent location and the staff are very helpful and efficient. Everything was clean and well presented
The room was on the small side
Absolutely loved this hotel, for such a big hotel it feels like coming home...how they do that I do not know but they do.
The housekeeping is excellent, the bar menu is amazing, the bar staff second to none!
The main star of the show is the front desk staff, I swear they treat you like family/old friends and we had never been before. Tereza on reception, I don't know what they are paying her but pay her double she is outstanding! Best sleep EVER..we will be back, thank you for a wonderful stay.
Central location , beautiful and comfortable rooms .Afternoon Tea was fabulous.
Breakfast! Food was very disappointing, my husband’s porridge was the worst he had ever had . Felt that the breakfast room was far too big and therefore very noisy. Very expensive, definitely not worth the money .
